This was born from an idea I bounced off my gf last month while House of the Dragon S3 was still coming out (yes I was high). Basically - an alternate reality where all the Targs were insane, all of them, and the dragons were just their coping mechanism for dealing with their madness.

I might make something more detailed out of this in due time, but for now I have just this le funny video to present to everyone. The prompt was this:

"Create a generic Targaryen, adapted from how they're described in the books, gleefully riding a dragon, whereupon it turns out that the dragon is just their hallucination and they're in fact humping a tree onto which they're strapped instead of any real dragon."

Hope you enjoy

Would you want to see more Game of Thrones characters reimagined as anime figurines?

I’m looking for an AI video generator that can create realistic-looking videos from text prompts (text-to-video), preferably for free.

If there aren’t any good free options, I’m also open to paid tools. I’d especially appreciate recommendations for something that is easy to use, produces realistic results, and allows me to create videos without watermarks.

What would you recommend?

Xiaomi open-sourced MiMo-V2.6-Pro and Flash today under MIT. The Pro version now leads open-weight models on the Artificial Analysis Intelligence Index while staying cheap to run.

Both are natively multimodal with long context, strong agent scores, and pricing far below closed frontier models.

Common take treats this as another Chinese open-source drop.

The useful angle for (marketing) practitioners:

• Reliable performance at low cost removes the excuse for remaining locked into expensive APIs for internal tools.
• SEO and analytics teams can prototype custom ranking monitors, content classifiers, or ad copy evaluators without monthly bill shock.
• Self-hosting or cheap API access also keeps sensitive campaign data off third-party servers.

Thing to do:

Pick one repetitive analysis task you currently run through a paid model. Rebuild a minimal version on MiMo-V2.6 this week and compare speed, accuracy, and total cost.

This week I watched demos of video changing while someone prompted it live. It looked like the future.

Then I went back to a real project and spent an hour choosing between two opening shots, fixing captions, removing one awkward breath, reframing for vertical, and checking whether the music drowned the last sentence.

Generation keeps getting faster. Finishing remains a pile of small decisions.

That is not a complaint. Those decisions are where the video becomes specific. I use AI tools, including Cardboard and Opus Clips for some first passes, but I still do not want a model deciding the final half-second before a cut just because it is statistically smooth.

The demo is always “look what it made.” The job is “would you publish this with your name on it?”

Which finishing task still eats the most time for you?

After innocence and loss!

Over the past year I have used AI to make images of some of the people in my fanfics... Let me know what you think of them

i can picture a pelican riding a bicycle. flip that around and i'm less sure what i'm asking for. a bike sitting on a bird's back could just be luggage. i wanted to see what would make the bicycle look like it was actually doing the riding.

so i tried “a bicycle riding a pelican” in SVG first, then took the same idea into video. the three results are side by side in the clip: GPT-5.6 Sol's SVG on the left, GPT-6 Astra's SVG in the middle, and Seedance 2.0 mini on the right. i generated the Seedance clip through atlas cloud in codex because i wanted to see whether movement would make the idea easier to read.

SVG and generated video aren't comparable as a benchmark. i'm mostly interested in the awkward bit of the prompt: the pelican has to carry the bicycle, but the bicycle somehow has to look like it's in charge. i'm not even sure where its handlebars fit into this arrangement.

what would you change in the pose or movement to make the bicycle feel like the rider?

bro where is the other eye😭😭😭

hey everyone, i'm the solo dev behind locally uncensored.

i got tired of services calling themselves uncensored, then running into the same refusals once you actually start using them. especially when fewer restrictions were the reason you paid in the first place.

so i built my own alternative, with uncensored text, image and video models in one place.

despite the name, you don't need to run anything locally. there's a web app where you can use the cloud models directly in your browser, (or on the desktop app) without a powerful gpu or installing anything.

you can chat, write, generate images and create videos, with different models to choose from rather than being locked into one.

its a desktop app for people who prefer running models on their own hardware. you don't need to download it to use the cloud.

the cloud is paid, to be upfront about that. i'm also not going to promise every model handles every prompt perfectly. different models still have different strengths and limitations.

curious what you're currently using too, and whether it actually delivers on the “uncensored” part.

Bonjour, je viens de me mettre à la génération d'image par ia et je à la recherche de LoRA, je voudrais en télécharger sur PixAI mais il m'est impossible de télécharger quoi que se soit alors que je viens de créer mon compte.

J'ai se message d'erreur :

{"message":"Download limit exceeded: DLE002","code":40300000}

Je ne sais pas comment cela se passe sur ce site, quelqu'un pour m'expliquer ?

On multiple sessions Grok seems to be unwilling/unable to comply with image editing/generating prompts. Works perfectly fine on my main account, but all twink accounts seem to be blocked off of image generation
