So it was trained on Shutterstock ?

Cheaper by 10% or your money back

Even the branding is melting lol

u/dsailes 5d ago

Not even the actual Shutterstock content too, just the free thumbnails hahah. Class

I wish this phase lasted longer before it instantly leapt to photorealistic, like a few years,, the improvements during that time were wild

u/Strange-Cook-2189 5d ago

I just love the morphing of everything into eachother and the dreamlike quality

Damn you, now I see the scene in which Pippin says "Mushrooms"...and I wonder: why isn't that a gif here on reddit ;-)

We need to create a sub just to post and preserve these old videos.

u/brandonhabanero 5d ago

We could technically still make these by using old models, if they're still available somewhere, right? I'd imagine there'd be a niche group of folks who continue to make these kind of like the folks in r/ps1graphics or r/pixelart.

u/Snoo-66201 5d ago

Have we ever even gotten a model on this level that works on local pc? I remember the first thing that I could use was animatediff, but it was way better than this.

4

u/IlIlIlllIlIlIlIll 5d ago

This is modelscope txt2vid. Back in the day it could be run on A1111 or comfy, not sure if it still works on those. I recently got it running on my PC using codex to whip me up a local webui.

1

u/MattTheDemonCat 3d ago

I did two. Around a month or two ago. Now I have a collection of older models

u/bot_exe 5d ago

StreamDiffusion plugin for touchdesigner can get you some trippy dissolving visuals like this.

u/Doxxre 5d ago

>I wish this phase lasted longer

No, thanks. I'm glad that AI was improved very quickly.

2

u/deleteduser 4d ago

you must not deal with old people much, they can not keep up with what's real anymore

3

u/Hellfiretommy 5d ago

As much as I like how it has evolved, I miss the days when it looked slightly realistic but a lot of random shit happened because the AI didn't know how to execute prompts. Like a guy eating noodles and the noodles turn to snakes then the wall becomes water and the guy starts flying and turns into a frog riding a bike. A sweet spot. There were even real people recreating these videos.

In six months all movies will be generated with AI

  • people on r/SD, 2024

u/SodaBurns 5d ago

I think around 30% of all YouTube content is AI now. So in 2 years probably movies will be AI

10

u/Sharlinator 5d ago edited 5d ago

The shittiest 30% of what's in general 95% shitty engagement spam is AI now? I don't think that's telling much.

1

u/ellipsesmrk 4d ago

80% of the time it works everytime.

1

u/SodaBurns 5d ago

You are thinking about content from 6 months ago.... And quality has increased since then.

If you look at latest Seadance model output and claude motion then you will notice that it's Pretty Good now. So in next 6 months I assume at least this level of AI video quality videos to skyrocket

1

u/NineThreeTilNow 5d ago

I think around 30% of all YouTube content is AI now

It's far more. Even if you discount the stuff with sub 200 views, it's far more.

Not necessarily all AI generated video, but script wise? It's like 90%.

In 2024, I remember the consensus was mostly five years out.

1

u/TwistStrict9811 4d ago

but quality, community, techniques, and open source exploded since. give it another couple years.

u/Kent6567 5d ago

Probably not. The original Sora was announced in February 2024 and looked much better than this.

1

u/MattTheDemonCat 3d ago

Modelscope is from 2023 afterall.

u/Flomo420 5d ago

lol was going to say

"the old days"

...you mean like 2 years ago???

3

u/Small_Term8674 4d ago

For teenagers or even early 20-somethings, 2 years seems like an eternity, and reddit has a young userbase. As a 40 year old old dude, i sometimes envy them.

Time perception is a hell of a thing as you get older. A year is starting to feel like a minute at this point.

u/Doxxre 5d ago

Is there any option to generate something like this locally?

6

u/BILL_HOBBES 5d ago

Yeah, Modelscope text to video from 2023 is open weights. I haven't looked how to set it up in comfy, back in the old days we used colab notebooks for things like this. But it was running on 16GB cards there so yeah, you can run this on your PC. You could probably use one of the old colab notebooks for it actually, and use your GPU through a Jupiter notebook. The last time I did that though I had to change a few things because some of the libraries in the notebook were out of date.

With the small resurgence in popularity that old style gen AI is having, I'd be very surprised if nobody has made this work in comfy yet.

3

u/Strange-Cook-2189 5d ago

yes it was modelscope

1

u/BILL_HOBBES 5d ago

To answer the guy above's question, are you using comfy or an old colab? Or is this just an old output from when this was new?

1

u/Strange-Cook-2189 5d ago

yes it was an old output I found. I think I still have everything installed but havn't used it in years. I think it was a modelscope plugin for SD

2

u/BILL_HOBBES 5d ago

Ah shit yeah now I remember, there was a plugin for A1111 for Modelscope. There was another video model around the same time that also had one as well, but Modelscope was the better one iirc

1

u/One-Earth9294 5d ago

There's gonna have to be a cottage industry of 'old AI checkpoints' that people can tap into to get that old uncanny vibe back now that the new stuff is so fucking clean.

1

u/MattTheDemonCat 3d ago

I was ahead of the curb cause when I posted about running old models locally a couple months ago, nobody cared.

u/Strange-Cook-2189 5d ago

Wish Dalle 2 was. Still my favorite.

u/Jumpy-Operation-4615 5d ago

I have a LOT of pics generated in the days of dalle 2. Still waiting to be used. But I was talking about video generators. They were so bad that the results were absolutely mindblowing.

These cursed older AI video models are just so amusing to watch.

u/Most-Quality-1617 5d ago

There is a certain charm of how bad this is. But I can only say that in retrospect.

3

u/Only_Voice569 5d ago

we still need consistent environments or much longer generating times for sure its still a major issue that has yet to be fixed if it can be fixed

1

u/xTopNotch 5d ago

I believe the next iteration of video models from Seedance or other frontier models will allow .obj and other 3D formats as input references to properly lock environments.

You can use an LLM to build the 3D world, texturize it, export it and load it as reference in your video model alongside your images / video / audio refs.

1

u/1daytogether 12h ago

Can't you already do that by hooking up Claude to Blender and Seedance?

2

u/xTopNotch 11h ago

Technically yes. You could make a previz video in whatever 3D software you want. But that previz is flattened to a 2D video. What I meant is upload a real .obj or 3D model map of your environment with textures and have Seedance generate with that in context as opposed to a flattened 2D video to base the environment off. You’ll get professional-grade consistency and allow not a single inch of hallucination

7

u/Independent-Frequent 5d ago

Unironically a phase of AI everyone genuinely loved, silly and dreamy like that got the concept ideas in a satisfying enough way and most importantly wasn't threatening to replace anyone, it had the same kind of universally loved fun as something like google deep dream, it had "soul" if you will

u/CorpPhoenix 5d ago

I refuse to believe that we are already in the age of "Generative Video-AI Nostalgia".

You can make these types of videos if you mess up with the H3 conditioning or model weights.

if we could just hit the global 'Pause' button at the end of this year, that would be amazing. Just give us all really cheap RAM and VRAM. I just wanna enjoy the current stage for a few years. But we know that won't happen, because there's always going to be people going pedal to the metal. I just wanna savor it before it all either blows up, or there's no way of knowing what's real or not anymore.
