Opus 5.5 can now generate professional-grade animations with pure code. Muse is evolving into a consumer-ready Agent that actually feels human.
Next-Token podcast dropped some fire takes from 4 Chinese AI builders. Two insights hit different:
1. China has ZERO real AI Product Managers
Muse's real flex isn't just model power—it's knowing WHEN to connect Gmail, WHEN to show progress, WHEN to ask for approval. It doesn't spam you or waste attention.
UI can be copied overnight. But this "get shit done without annoying users" experience? That's the actual moat.
China doesn't lack AI engineers. It lacks PMs who understand AI-native UX.
2. Opus 5.5 just created the "execute threshold" for video editors
Code-generated animations now handle music, motion, transitions, and rhythm holistically. And model intelligence is scaling FASTER than tools like CapCut or AE can ship features.
Before: You told tools HOW to do every step
Now: You tell AI WHAT you want
When execution becomes cheap, human value compresses into fewer things: taste, preference, and knowing what the fuck you actually want.
