WHAT A TIME TO BE ALIVE! ( 4:48 QUEUE DANCING SUSHI EMOTE )😃

OpenAi while having most of the ai not open source is ironic

The problem with text-to-video is that 80% of what you generate is garbage. When you try to generate something slightly complex, it fails miserably.

The biggest problem is consistency, i can barely get these AI generators to build up certain details on an image they just generated. If i ask for a sheet of metal, it gives me one, if i tell it to add rust on the edges it does all sort of weird spooky shit except putting fucking rust marks on the edges

I still feel like I entered an alternate timeline in 2022 with how AI is so rapidly advancing when all we had was nightmare fuel pictures 2, 5 years ago. Looking forward to local models!

This looks very interesting and exciting. However a very sour side effect of all this is that social media has become flooded with fake images and videos, gullable people like and comment, and it's very sad.

when we all become able to be film directors, there will be no film directors.

Goodbye reality. Nothing on screen can be deemed evidentially real anymore.

[bokchoiman]

We will live in AI slop world before GTA VI

I just say : Hunyuan Video from tencent - local !

It's funny that during the part about object permanence with the city street, a guy in the background just vanishes.

[JuniorDjjrMixMods]

I took too long time to release... And still, not released on my country (Brazil).
When it was announced I was extremely impressed, but so much time has passed, so many competitors, that it's not THAT impressive anymore.

"this is the worst version of it" I dunno, I still remember the Will Smith eating spaghetti one

[Octamed]

"We will all be able to become film directors". Nightmare fuel.

2:41 I appreciate the "hold on to your papers" on-screen visual alert.

[neetpride]

real life has been so crazy lately, we don't even need AI to make crazy videos anymore

[marcp]

Watch the video frame by frame, you can control the frames with dot and comma. Then you see so many inconsistencies and the whole thing doesn't look as good as it's hyped up to be.

[unnecoppro]

When the guy who regularly gets excited for the smallest advances in AI and graphics is cautious about your progress you know you messed up.

[Runner]

The way that AI messes up is too similar to our dreams

[leebumble]

The incoherence has a dreamlike quality to it.
