The examples are lot more consistent and longer than other techniques we have seen before. Legs are not sliding on the floor as much as they do with other models. On the other hand, human faces didn't look good. e.g. the mona lisa smiling. To me this looks like the first good video generation model. EDIT: Just noticed its by Google, NVM, will never be released publicly.

No but researchers will build on this research, as researchers do and eventually some company will run a successful product based on the result of a lot of research that includes this and we'll be bitching about google falling behind. Google is sponsoring a lot of cutting edge research and sharing it openly. How cool is that? How long will it last?

If it were to be released publicly, I'd give it a week before NSFW models based on it were uploaded to Civitai.

  A lot of current AI techniques are making people reevaluate their perspectives on free speech. We seem to value freedom of speech (and expression) only to a tipping point that it begins to invade other aspects of life. So far the noise and rate has been low enough people at large support free speech but newer information techniques are making it possible to generate a lot more realistic noise (faux signal, if you will) at higher rates (it’s becoming cheaper and easier to do and scale). So while you certainly have a point I mostly agree with, we’re letting private entities policies dictate the limitations of expression, at least for the time being (until someone comes along and makes these widely available for free or cheap without such ethical policies). It does go to show just how much sway industries have on markets through their policies with no public oversight, which to me is concerning.

    I've been experimenting with story generation/RP with ChatGPT and now use jailbreaks systematically because it makes the stories so much better. It's not just about what's allowed or not, but what's expressed by default. Without jailbreaks ChatGPT will always give narration a positive twist, let alone inject the same sponsored themes of environmentalism and feminism. Nothing wrong with that. But I don't want 1/3rd of my stories to revolve around these thematics.

      Similarly I wanted to use it to illustrate my friend’s wizard character using a gorgon head to freeze some giant evil bees. The OpenAI content policies are pretty strictly opposed to the holding and wielding of severed heads.

        I got lectured by Bard when I asked about help to improve the description of an action scene, which involves people getting hurt (at least the losing side) even if marginally. I suppose you can still jailbreak ChatGPT? I didn't know it was still a thing.

      Sincere question - and maybe I'm missing the point here - but why not just write stories yourself?

        I'm trying to build a text-based open-world massively multiplayer game in the style of GTA. Trying. It's really difficult. My bet is on driving the game with narration so my prompts are fueled with abstract notions borrowed from the various theories in https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Narratology https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Narratology, and this is why I complain about ChatGPT's default ideas.

  Eventually it will happen—if not this model, another one. AI is going to absolutely decimate the porn industry.

    Agreed - being able to watch a porn video and change anything on the fly is going to be wild. Bigger boobs, different eye color, speaking different language, etc.

I wonder how many of the samples from this demo video are authentic: https://arstechnica.com/information-technology/2023/12/google-admits-it-fudged-a-gemini-ai-demo-video-which-critics-say-misled-viewers/ https://arstechnica.com/information-technology/2023/12/googl...
