#  @deedydas Deedy Google's new AI models and tools are making significant advancements, including a video generation model, a coding agent called Jules, and real-time translation on Google Meet. Other AI startups and models are also gaining traction, such as Sarvam's flagship LLM and GoodFire, which received funding from Menlo Ventures. Additionally, there are breakthroughs in gene editing, with scientists using CRISPR to rewrite DNA inside a living baby, and AI models finding zero-day vulnerabilities, marking a new era for cybersecurity. ### Engagements: [-------] [#](/creator/twitter::361044311/interactions)  - [--] Week [---------] +65% - [--] Month [---------] -21% - [--] Months [----------] -37% - [--] Year [-----------] -0.39% ### Mentions: [--] [#](/creator/twitter::361044311/posts_active)  - [--] Week [--] -9.20% - [--] Month [---] +6.60% - [--] Months [---] -4.90% - [--] Year [-----] -28% ### Followers: [-------] [#](/creator/twitter::361044311/followers)  - [--] Week [-------] +0.65% - [--] Month [-------] +1.20% - [--] Months [-------] +13% - [--] Year [-------] +50% ### CreatorRank: [------] [#](/creator/twitter::361044311/influencer_rank)  ### Social Influence **Social category influence** [technology brands](/list/technology-brands) 30.43% [countries](/list/countries) 10.87% [finance](/list/finance) 9.78% [stocks](/list/stocks) 9.24% [social networks](/list/social-networks) 2.72% [vc firms](/list/vc-firms) #70 [celebrities](/list/celebrities) 1.63% [luxury brands](/list/luxury-brands) 0.54% [fashion brands](/list/fashion-brands) 0.54% [travel destinations](/list/travel-destinations) 0.54% **Social topic influence** [ai](/topic/ai) #4712, [open ai](/topic/open-ai) #382, [$googl](/topic/$googl) 5.43%, [india](/topic/india) #3501, [in the](/topic/in-the) #3813, [the world](/topic/the-world) #2902, [claude code](/topic/claude-code) #159, [model](/topic/model) #3142, [bytedance](/topic/bytedance) #17, [china](/topic/china) 3.8% **Top accounts mentioned or mentioned by** [@grok](/creator/undefined) [@nullptr_ai](/creator/undefined) [@taheerbuilds](/creator/undefined) [@mollysoshea](/creator/undefined) [@learncurvesai](/creator/undefined) [@ethanchoi7](/creator/undefined) [@tillmann193850](/creator/undefined) [@subscord](/creator/undefined) [@dreemrworld](/creator/undefined) [@newaiworld_](/creator/undefined) [@huanghlzone](/creator/undefined) [@molly_radiant](/creator/undefined) [@elonmusk](/creator/undefined) [@varunbvarun](/creator/undefined) [@njpatel](/creator/undefined) [@sodawhite_dev](/creator/undefined) [@ysu_chatdata](/creator/undefined) [@austin_vip88](/creator/undefined) [@martinszerment](/creator/undefined) [@rkroutbbsr](/creator/undefined) **Top assets mentioned** [Alphabet Inc Class A (GOOGL)](/topic/$googl) [Microsoft Corp.
