They really just got on stage and said this newly designed 4000+ pound car can do flips and go half the speed of sound (380+mph) and will ship in 2028. This is a prank, right?

After six years in stealth, Atomic Machines is out. Our mission: on-demand, universal command of matter. First beachhead: the Matter Compiler, an AI-native manufacturing system that builds working micro-machines from code alone. No per-product tooling. No process development. Different code, different machine.

166,700 fruit fly neurons just took over 3 drones, and nobody taught them to fly.
Scientists mapped the full brain of 1 real fly, every neuron and all 25 million connections, and put it online for free.
Someone copied that brain 3 times and plugged each copy into a drone.
No flight code, no gesture presets, no "avoid the chair" rule, just a camera feeding the fly's eyes and neurons turning into throttle.
1 drone hovers, 1 slips past a chair, 1 drops to the floor and holds.
This brain spent 350 million years learning to stay in the air, and now it's back where it belongs.
No GPUs, no training run, no $100B data center, just a brain smaller than a grain of salt.
1 fly gives you 3 pilots, and 1,000 flies give you a swarm.
The fly is dead, but its brain just got a squadron.
166,700 fruit fly neurons are flying a drone around my bedroom.
1 camera watches my open hand and that's the whole input.
The panel in the middle is the brain running live 166,700 neurons, 25 million connections, the full reconstructed map of a fruit fly's head.
Camera reads the hand, the brain fires, the output becomes throttle.
Open palm and it climbs, fist and it holds, drop the hand and it comes down.
4 propellers the size of a coin hanging off a nervous system that belonged to an insect.
The honest part this is a computational model, not a resurrected fly, the wiring is biological, the drone is mine, I built the bridge between them.
I never wrote flight logic, no PID tuning, no gesture presets, I gave the neurons somewhere to send the signal and they found the ceiling.
11 seconds in, it holds altitude on its own.
The fly is dead and it's still flying.
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
The quoted demo shows one drone whose throttle is set by hand gestures via camera and hand-tracking code; pitch, roll and yaw stay on a physical remote, with no closed-loop autonomous flight. No footage shows 3 drones independently navigating or avoiding a chair. x.com/i/status/20996… github.com/pattssun/iDrone

Vibe hardware is here.
I gave Astra my credit card and asked for a Teenage Engineering-style mini DJ controller.
It generated a concept image, sourced parts, read Chinese datasheets, built a CAD model, ordered everything, then made a Blender animation showing how to assemble it.
