“We combine these two optical systems in a single camera by splitting the aperture: one half applies application-specific modulation using a diffractive optical element, and the other captures a conventional image. This co-design with a dual-pixel sensor allows simultaneous capture of coded and uncoded images — without increasing physical or computational footprint.”

How ‘Dune’ VFX supervisor Paul Lambert invented the Nuke’s Image Based Keyer
So, what is the IBK keyer? The very non-technical answer to that is that the ‘image- based keyer’ is a proprietary keyer in Nuke that typically deals with classic bluescreen or greenscreen plates (that need keying) by recognizing that these plates do not always have uniform color coverage. We’ve all seen uneven blue and greenscreens; that’s one place where the IBK Keyer can come in handy.

OpenAI 4.5 model arrives to mixed reviews
The verdict is in: OpenAI’s newest and most capable traditional AI model, GPT-4.5, is big, expensive, and slow, providing marginally better performance than GPT-4o at 30x the cost for input and 15x the cost for output. The new model seems to prove that longstanding rumors of diminishing returns in training unsupervised-learning LLMs were correct and that the so-called “scaling laws” cited by many for years have possibly met their natural end.
