Take a look at Midjourney's much-anticipated AI video generation model, V1, which just launched for its users at $10 a month. V1 is an image-to-video model, so if you upload an image, it will create a series of short videos based on the initial image. And the model launch... now puts the popular Midjourney in direct competition with other video-focused models, like OpenAI's Sora, Google's Veo 3 and Adobe's Firefly. Midjourney's CEO says V1 is a step toward creating "real-time open-world simulations," though the company currently faces a lawsuit from Disney and Universal over the depiction of copyrighted characters. But in the meantime, you can all the details on what you can build, and how to get access, here:show more

They aren't simulations. It's reskinning training data. Also massive copyright infringement

Dreamina Seedance 2.0 is by far the best video model I've tried, and Dreamina makes it even better. You can try it in the link below. It's not just about the quality of the output, but about how much control you have over your video's look. Watch my video here. I'm attaching reference images and asking the model to generate a video using them. I can reference each image using the @ symbol to instruct the model which image to use. You can even upload a clip and use its camera movement, styles from an image, and audio vibe from a track. By the way, you can take an existing video and replace, remove, or add elements to it while the model preserves everything else. This is the closest we've gotten to "editing videos like photos".

You can now step into any world as a video game ✨ All you need is an image edit model (this is Flux 2) + video model to animate (this is Veo 3.1). And you get to control the plot, characters, and aesthetic. Happy to do a longer tutorial if there's interest...

VIDEO UPSCALE TEST: The new Astra 2 Creative model from Topaz Labs is a big improvement over the v1 model - with the sharpness and creativity kept low, the filmic look of the original is being well preserved without the over-sharpness effect common in v1. Comparison test attached: Kling 3 720p original for the first 15 seconds (with a fake upscale to 1080p to make the size match), then Topaz Astra 2 1080p upscale for the next 15 seconds. Image: Midjourney. Video: Kling AI

I'm a bit confused... Google's Veo 2 is the best video model in text-to-video. But on the other hand... The newly released image-to-video for Veo 2 (on Freepik (now Magnific) and @FAL) feels underwhelming. Input images generated with Runway Frames. Here it is compared to Luma

This is a pretty wild model! You can use it to turn an image into a 3D object with texture. The quality is out of this world! I'm not even a designer, and I've been using this nonstop for the last 2 hours. The model is Hunyuan 3D 2.1. It's open source. You'll find model weights, training/inference code, data pipelines, and architecture on their repository. You can even fine-tune it if you want! GitHub Repository: By the way, the model runs on consumer-grade GPUs. You don't need a datacenter for this! I've been using the model from the HuggingFace demo page: To use it, go to the link and upload an image. That's it! Check out the video I recorded for a couple of examples.

Omg, this is such a hack for vibecoding mobile apps This is an image with a video on the top. The video is a character with no backround. I'm using: > Masko AI to generate the video > vibecode.dev to build the app In masko all you need to do is provide an image, and it will give you a video without a background. And then all you need to do is give it to vibecode.dev which is the best mobile app builder.

✨ Made a new mini feature on Photo AI: [ Grab from 3d model ] So the problem is we're at that stage in time (typical for AI) where image-to-3d models are not good enough but are fun to play with, but we know they'll be good enough in 1-2 years With [ Make 3d model ] you already can turn any Photo AI pic into a 3d model but it still looks hyper clunky and deformed, but it works! One cool idea I had to make that more useful and made now: Let people make a 3d model then change the view of the it with the 3d viewer, then press [ o ] and it grabs a frame of the 3d That image you can then [ Remix ] (img2img), and it becomes a real photo again and that in turn you can then turn into a video again with [ Make video ] So that essentially gives you a fully freeform camera position control to take photos with One thing I need to fix is the background/skybox, I kinda need to take the original photo and remove the person and just get the background for the 3d model viewer, in this case it should be white, but it's a start!

GPT Image 2 + Codex: or how to make Codex not suck at UI. Step 1: Generate a UI image (native in Codex) Step 2: Get Codex to implement the UI based on it Step 3: Get Codex to iterate until it aligns with the image as much as possible Codex is bad at initial UI, but very good at implementing a reference design, so this is your way out - iterate with the image model first and then Codex will do a good job.

We asked Logan Kilpatrick what stood out most from Google I/O. His answer: Gemini Omni, Google's new multimodal AI model. "The model can take in any input and produce any output. Text, audio, video, image." "You get a bunch of really interesting capability transfer when you bring it all into a single model." Right now the killer use case is video editing. "It's like having a VFX studio on demand."

A new real-time world model is here 👀 I tested out Dynamics Lab's Mirage 2, which was just publicly released. You can upload an image and step inside it - with game controls that guide movement + the ability to change the scene with text prompts.

OpenAI released Sora 2, their new state of the art video and audio generation model, calling it the GPT-3.5 moment for video - The model generates videos up to 10 seconds long (default 9:16 vertical) with synchronized audio including difficult physics simulations, where mistakes the model makes frequently appear to be mistakes of the internal agent that Sora 2 is implicitly modeling rather than physics-breaking errors - Cameos let users record a short one-time video-and-audio capture where they read a verification phrase, then the model can insert them into any Sora-generated environment with accurate appearance and voice, where only they decide who can use their cameo and they can revoke access or remove any video that includes it at any time including drafts created by other people - The app functions as a social iOS platform not optimized for time spent but explicitly designed to maximize creation not consumption, heavily favoring content from people you follow or interact with and videos the model thinks will inspire your own creations, with features like remixing other posts and direct messaging to share videos privately - Safety measures include limited invitation rollout, restricting image uploads that feature a photorealistic person, blocking all video uploads, no video-to-video transformation at launch, stricter safeguards for minors with default scroll limits, C2PA metadata and visible watermarks on all outputs, and evaluations showing 95.1-99.7% effectiveness at blocking unsafe content - Initial rollout covers the US and Canada with plans to expand while the UK, EU, and Australia are not included at launch, available for free with generous limits though subject to compute constraints with the only planned monetization being optional payment for extra videos if demand exceeds compute, ChatGPT Pro users get access to higher quality Sora 2 Pro model and API release planned for future

With Gemini 3, you can take an image of anything, like a board game, a floor plan, or a doodle, and make it an interactive experience. This is because of Gemini 3’s deep multimodal understanding. The model is able to analyze the content of the image, distill the most compelling parts, and then translate the image’s details into a functional, interactive experience.

Google DeepMind just dropped 'Genie', an AI that can generate interactive video games. This is a huge deal. Genie is trained on 200,000 hours of unsupervised public internet gaming videos and can generate video games from a single prompt or image. But here's what's insane: Despite not being trained on action or text annotations, the foundation model can determine who the main character is and enable a user to control that character in the generated world. It does this through its Latent Action Model, Video Tokenizer, and Dynamics Model (will go more in-depth on this in tomorrow's newsletter for those interested). And for those asking, yes, it's research-only and not publicly available (here come the Google memes), and it does come with some limitations, like only currently creating games at 1FPS. But this is the worst AI will ever be. Anyone will be able to create their own entirely imagined virtual worlds soon, and that's a wild sentence to say out loud.
