I mean... They just copy the US's homework, so I would hope they can run a leaner operation.

You mean that "homework" that the US labs stole from me and billions of others before?

Yeah, I gladly get some of the fruits of that work back!


Oh for sure. The American labs distill society.

The Chinese labs distill the American models.

Someone will etch the Chinese models into silicon and then your toaster will have depression, it's the natural cycle of things.


ugh now my toaster needs a 8t param model?? What is it doing, analyzing every grain of wheat used to manufacture my bread?

"I need to push back on that ..."

[Poing! Out pops the toast ...]


Processed all 459 wheat kernels and found 37% are falling short of desired nutrients per your requirements.

But here’s the interesting part: those remaining 63% of kernels? They more than make up for the loss in the 37%.

When your bread was made, those specific kernels were likely not fully formed, so they lack the desired nutrients. However, because they are mixed with those superior kernels, your nutrients are back on track.

-> reviewing GitHub repository for optimal toasting

Would you like me to toast this bread to your optimal levels? Or should we delve deeper into bread manufacturing?


The labs stole my work

The least I can expect is to get the labs work stolen too so I can reaccess intelligence based on my work for cheaper


'just copy the US's homework'

elaborate please.


Distilled off of OpenAI and Anthropic models

since openAI and Anthropic are public about their anti-distillation mechanism, its either their anti-distillation doesn't work or kimi got here because their own training and RLs. Which one is it?

I have no idea how you block distillation. Every time you do inference, thats basically distilation.

At this point I can't wait for a comedian to release a decision model backed by humans.

Meet Jerry- it's literally a guy named Jerry answering your questions.


Oh! You probably want ChatTJB [1]

Don't worry, Jerry will rig everything up for you.



Your comment made me chuckle.

Jerry, "The Decider" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r8VbzrZ9yHQ


Same, but my mind went straight to Rick and Morty… def don’t want Jerry deciding XD


Ah, easy to work around, you just iterate eliminating his choices one at a time, until you get the one he didn't pick (that's your correct pick).


RACE HIM JERRY!


Imagine other people might like to know: if you use an API key to access OpenAI models in the Codex Desktop application, you can't access the faster inference.

I patched my codex application with this code, I would hope such a change could be upstreamed: https://github.com/adenta/codex-fast-mode-patcher


Love to see it. We have been experimenting with https://github.com/ronak-create/FableCut, how is this similar? How is it different?


I have not heard of FableCut, but looks like an interesting project!

It's similar in a sense that we're both exposing a mcp server to let claude runs editing tools, and also a traditional video editor interface.

It's different in terms of how you run it. FableCut requires you to install node, ffmpeg, and run a local server and connect to it via Chromium-based browser, whereas Palmier Pro is a native Mac App.

I don't know enough about the feature parity to comment on it. How is your experience with FableCut?


Good to hear that!!


Where are you hosting postgres


On the same machine where they are currently storing the sqlite file maybe? It's not that hard to run. A sqlite backup cron is also not that much more work than a pg_dump cron.


if they have only one server, then on that server. If they have a load-balanced front end and central database, then on the database.


What's embarrassing?


The post itself was technically useful, I found, and they posted their entire project to GitHub https://github.com/hershalb/music-video-arena which I think makes it worthy of a HN post and discussion since it is technical and at least IMHO a very interesting post.


The outputs


We are still a bit of a ways away from being able to compile a script into a show. Also Veo 3.1 is old AF, it can't even do audio references! the cool kids are currently focused on Seedance 2.

This is the most recent thing I put together (sry it's on LinkedIn, haven't posted the series elsewhere yet)

https://www.linkedin.com/posts/adenta_episode-1-of-midwest-d...

I'm also unsure if screenplay to video is the desired... workflow we will eventually want.

I am biased, but am a bit kinder to AI video slop than most. Like I bet the first ever movies were pretty shit too. Give it a couple years while we figure out this new technology, and it's currently as bad as it ever will be, it can only get better.


I finally took the thirty seconds to find that famous video of the moon getting hit with a bullet, lmk if you are entertained to watch all the way through https://youtu.be/ZNAHcMMOHE8?si=GndI2PShs_vtGUT8

Now compare that to the first 20 minutes of this AI movie: https://youtu.be/digHr6k38x0?si=s2rzWD346R9qGkLs


TBH as vapid as it is I think the overwhelming majority of people would call the AI video more entertaining. I mean good lord nothing happens in the first 3 minutes of Lumiere's movie except a bunch of academics waving their hands around.

I’m dumbfounded you had the audacity to post this garbage.


At first usage I'm not impressed. I've probably spent a couple grand on Seedance 2 to date, and I can't find anything google omni flash does better than Seedance from running a handful of samples through the system. You can find some of the videos I've made in my HN bio link.


Just curious - are you at all concerned about the legal implications of ai-generating property listing videos?


The legal risk probably lies solely with those who are selling the properties. They are responsible if the video misrepresents anything.


yeah, it's all about keeping everything grounded in reality.


But it looks so fake that I wouldn't waste time visiting a property advertised like that.


Agreed, the author surely must see and know this?


I agree, looks pretty terrible...


You are misleading people. I think this is disgraceful.

Please grow a spine.


Seedance 2 is amazing, compared with anything else American tech is producing. It does struggle with consistency like all other models.

The other problem is Seedance is heavily censored because of copyright concerns.


  > The other problem is Seedance is heavily censored because of copyright concerns.
Instead of censoring, wouldn't it make sense to simply not train on copyrighted materials?


The problem isn’t training data, it’s reference locking and allowing anyone to make whatever content they want.


What is reference locking?

  > allowing anyone to make whatever content they want.
One could draw a Mickey Mouse three-disc logo in inkscape, but nobody would sue inkscape because the application did not know what was being created. Likewise, asking for e.g. "a black disc, with two smaller discs tangent to it at a 105 degree angle" would not be infringing if the model never saw the Mickey Mouse logo to begin with.


I have exactly the same thought. Anyone who had used seedance 2.0 a bit can tell Gemini is a bit behind, and seedance 2.1 is on the horizontal already.


what subreddits do _you_ subscribe to?

I've been doing some content with people at https://industrialallusions.com


https://www.reddit.com/r/KlingAI_Videos/

https://www.reddit.com/r/HiggsfieldAI/

Higgsfield have multiple models available, people use Kling usually 2.5 & 3. There are a few good examples posted right now you'll notice the subtle differences.

I have tried to generate things myself and it's extremely hard to have more than 7-8 clips that are consistent, eventually you'll accept a compromise. I think it's why there isn't any long form content being done yet. Getting good results is sometimes just "chance" regardless of how many reference data you have.


I'm partial to open observe, especially because in Ruby the OTEL stuff isn't great for metrics and logs yet.


I also run open observe at home, but I can't help but feel that the interface could use some... sparkle, and the mobile experience kinda sucks.

But you can't beat the excellent price and performance. Does what I need and much more


When I was starting Traceway I was heavily inspired by skylightio from the Ruby ecosystem. I loved their SLOs/ranking perf issues, but I also wanted the features that Sentry offered in one place.
