Misc

• The 3d coherence of Gen-3 is mind blowing. (X)

• "End of the World" Start to finish, this took just over an hour to make. The song is completely generated by Suno and all of the video clips are from RunwayML GEN3. (X)

• This is pretty stunning AI spaghetti art... (X)

• This video is super interesting, why does it go so wrong? unlikely that it’s lack of training data…no shortage of gymnastics on TV. I think it’s the motion blur - once a body part blurs, there are no features to ensure coherence, and any other part is equally plausible… (X)
