NOTE: read the entire post before commenting. The new xAI video/image API is extremely fast, very cheap, and produces high-quality video. I built an app using the xAI Video API to create newscasts about, xAI, SpaceX, Starlink, Neuralink, X, Grok. Step 1: Grok writes a newscast script from stories...

Goodnight, 𝕏..·˚ ༘ ☾ ⋆｡˚ ☄︎ Newscast about xAI, SpaceX, Starlink, Neuralink, 𝕏, and Grok. Created using the xAI Video API. I upscaled the final frame to use as the starting point for the next clip's generation, but it only helped marginally. However, I found a paper called "FreeInit: Bridging Initialization Gap in Video Diffusion Models" that I'm going to try tomorrow to fix the drifting problem. The approach: 1. FFT both images (anchor frame + last frame) 2. Low-pass filter on anchor (structure/color/layout) 3. High-pass filter on last frame (details/edges/motion) 4. Combine and IFFT back

I'm proud to present this video created with Grok. Here are the main steps in the making of this video: 1. I wrote a draft script by hand. 2. I reworked the script with Grok to eliminate inconsistencies and add technical details (what I have them say about the Apollo missions and the stones is accurate). 3. Grok broke it down into scenes. 4. I switched to Grok Imagine's Agent mode: transforming each scene into a prompt. 5. I animated each scene in Agent mode using video, as well as cropping and image selection. 6. I edited it. Here's the result; it's hard to call it AI. I look forward to reading your comments.

For this video created from an image in Grok Imagine, I combined two techniques: - the image editor from Grok Imagine - starting from a frame of a video to create other videos.

Massive news: I was commissioned by xAI to create a short film in 2 days using only Grok Imagine 1.0 (stills and video). So in honor of Groundhog Day, here it is: "Routine" a film about a man in a time loop in suburbia. Thank you so much to the xAI team and Elon Musk for this opportunity! If you're an AI video creator, you may notice that I've cracked character consistency in Grok Imagine with this project (check out the kitchen scene). I will do a follow up post explaining exactly how I did that (it was not just prompting).

RunwayML is not limited to 4sec! Here's how you can bypass the limitations 👇 Step 1: Generate your video with Runway Step 2: Get ffmpeg Step 3: Grab the last frame of your video using this command ffmpeg -sseof -3 -i [input_file_name.mp4] -update 1 -q:v 1 [output_file_name.jpg] Step 4 : Use the image output as the input for your next RunwayML generation Step 5: Stich them together in your favorite editing software Step 6: This is the most important step! Like, RT and follow for more good stuff, thanks! ♥️🤗 It's not perfect, but it's a start, I added 5 clips in total in the video below, just so you can see how it evolves over time. With a lot of generations eventually it can look decent for 2-3 clips. Voice by ElevenLabs Music and SFX by Epidemic Sound Sound mixing with Ableton

XAI EXTENDS GROK IMAGINE VIDEO GENERATION TO 10 SECONDS WITH QUALITY ENHANCEMENTS xAI has updated its Grok Imagine tool to produce videos lasting 10 seconds, doubling the prior limit. This change, along with refinements in visual and audio elements, expands the tool's utility for short-form content creation. xAI released the upgrade to Grok Imagine in early 2026. The company, founded by Elon Musk, announced the feature through posts on the X platform. This follows previous iterations where videos were capped at shorter durations, typically 5 seconds. Grok Imagine allows users to generate videos from text prompts, building on its image creation capabilities. The update addresses constraints in video length that limited expressive potential. Users can now input descriptions to create clips, such as animations or scenes, without needing initial images. This positions the tool within the broader landscape of AI-driven multimodal generation, where text-to-video systems are increasingly common. The core adjustment doubles the maximum video duration from 5 seconds to 10 seconds. Accompanying this are upgrades to video quality, including more stable visuals, richer details, and improved clarity. Audio has also been enhanced for better output, making the generated content more immersive. These changes were described as "big improvements across the board" in the announcement. No specific benchmarks or quantitative metrics for the quality improvements were detailed in the release statements. The feature rollout appears gradual, with some users accessing it via the Grok app or web interface. xAI has not introduced user controls for exact timing, though such options are mentioned as future possibilities. This development highlights xAI's emphasis on iterative enhancements in generative AI tools. By extending duration while refining output fidelity, it reflects engineering priorities aimed at balancing computational efficiency with user needs. The focus on audio and visual stability suggests attention to common pitfalls in early text-to-video models, such as inconsistencies or artifacts. The sources do not specify the underlying model architecture changes or training data adjustments enabling this upgrade. Performance in real-world scenarios, like handling complex prompts or maintaining consistency across clips, remains unquantified in the announcements. Interpretations of broader implications for AI video generation would require additional evidence beyond what's provided.
