hey x, its that time again
@contralabs is hiring Researchers in SF/NY that are interested in making AI supercharge (not replace) creativity.
You will collaborate on cutting edge projects directly with frontier labs and researchers that impact the tools and models creatives use every single day.
If this is you, please DM or tag someone who could be interested!

At @contra, we power payments for some of the world’s most successful and fastest-growing studios:
@SkaleSolutions
@bybrightstudios
@pixeluplabs
@flashmotion_io
@layertwodesign
@masonwenlaunch
If you are a studio or creative looking for access to a US bank account, low fees, and reliable payments, send me a DM.

Higgsfield is now the fastest-growing skill freelancers get hired for.
We are #1 on Contra’s Creative Intelligence 2026 list of the fastest-growing AI skills, with 25x growth from H1 2025 to H1 2026.
My bet: within next 6 months, the most in-demand creative is the one who can take an idea all the way to a finished campaign. That’s why we built Higgsfield Katana, powered by Claude Motion. Give it a brief or your raw footage, and it hands back a finished edit, including the shots you never filmed.
The next studio is one person with Higgsfield.

Creatives Intelligence index from @Contralabs
Interesting stats here on state of AI adoption by Creative professionals across various disciplines:
web, brand, graphic, marketing, video, motion, etc
nice work @contraben @ajnulty @kuizinas
AI is making creativity more valuable than ever before and..
we have 3 years of data to prove it.

There's constant rhetoric that AI is taking over [creative] jobs. But the reality is, AI raises the floor and ceiling of what creative can achieve.
Check out the report here: contralabs.com/creative-inte… (trust me, you've never seen a report look like this)

I led engineering at Google DeepMind.
Today, I'm proud to introduce Fo to give personal AI something no lab ever has... Humans.
Other personal AI's pretend AI can do everything. Fo employs humans to do tasks that AI cannot.
- 2x better at real-world task completion (beats other agents by 69%)
- 94% trust rate (4x less likely to leak private info vs Muse, Instinct)

We recently gave every creative on @contra a US account and routing number, unlocking a simpler way to get paid.
It works like this:
- Create an invoice with bank transfer enabled
- Your client gets an email with your bank details
- They sent a wire from their bank
Within 24 hours, the payment arrives, and the invoice is marked paid. The best part: transfers count toward your Contra earnings and help build your reputation.
Excited to go on stage with @contraben at the Convergence: RL Summit to chat all things creativity. See you there 🫡
We’re hosting Convergence: RL Summit with @terac on Oct 29 in SF — bringing together researchers, founders & operators from @GoogleDeepMind, @databricks, @mercor, @arena, @joinHandshake, @turingcom, @deeptuneai, @contra, @Stanford, @Princeton, @UCBerkeley, and more.
Research, industry insight, live Q&A, and open panels about where RL goes next.

GPT-6 Astra, the latest frontier-level model from @OpenAI, is the only model in our latest Human Creativity Benchmark study to build a complete, working user flow.
It lands 2nd overall on our leaderboard, behind Claude Fable 5.1 and ahead of GPT-5.6 Sol in 4th. We ran it against Claude Fable 5.1, Claude Opus 5, Muse Spark 1.1, and its predecessor GPT-5.6 Sol, across ideation, mockup, and refinement.

ChatGPT Images 2.5 Flare lands 2nd overall on our Human Creativity Benchmark leaderboard, almost on par with Muse Image and ahead of ChatGPT Images 2.0 and Nano Banana Pro.
It is the latest frontier-level image model from @OpenAI. We ran it against Muse Image, Krea 2 Medium, Flux 2[max], and its predecessor ChatGPT Images 2.0, across ideation, mockup, and refinement phases.
