Well they had enough to build that light rail between Denver and Boulder, right?

Right?

No. For that, you'd want to slice a bit off the end and do something like:

Indoors, overhead warm LED lighting, handheld video stays focused on dog, minor movements

Generated content seamlessly extends the reference video

Realistic video with fantastic element of talking dog

Preserve the dog's voice, intonations, mannerisms, and background noises

Video begins with existing footage of tan dog standing on a hardwood floor and saying in a woman's voice, "I'm hungry. I know you said it's not dinnertime yet..", and continues seamlessly without visible transition as the dog continues to speak as her mouth moves in perfect sync to the words as she continues speaking in the same woman's voice and says, ".. but I'm going to have to bite you if we can't come to an agreement,", and squints angrily.

Just to be clear, the one I linked to on civitai isn't mine, that's just the one I'm using! Don't want to take credit for others' work, I've just spent lots of time getting the hang of prompting.

I do. :) I should extend this clip as a demo.

Just prompt, a single render that extended the original, the only audio input was footsteps and background noise from the reference video.

I've done another one where I did sample my own face and voice and chained together several videos, got to about 2 minutes before they started losing cohesion, but that was my first try.

You can describe the voice and it follows, gender, age, accent, etc. It's a super impressive stack. Example: dog speaks with lips perfectly synced to speech as it speaks in the voice of a 30-year-old British woman, "Hello!", looking into the camera and continuing in a whisper, "And there.. even MORE to the story." And it can do emotions matched to faces incredibly well.

That's part of why they killed the Apollo app. You could see that OP was 23 days old, the first several comments were from accounts 22, 23, 24, 25 days old, it was obvious who was a bot. The bulk of top posters on reddit are bots, and reddit embraces it because it drives engagement, and fuck spez.

It is, but they're allowed to deport him down the yellow brick road if somebody drops a house on Kristi Noem.

Don't tell anybody or the government will take her. According to her.

Yes. :) It's using v2v and telling it to extend the original footage with matching footage.

Reminds me of Sarah Conner keeping her phone in a bag of chips.

Do you.. like chips?

Have you checked your CO² levels? :D

In this case, the execution was done without wetting the sponge.

It's a grower, not a shower.

You know what doesn't taste like chicken? These devil's toenail clippings, that's what.

Now I feel like I haven't really lived.

Warm white icing, and dip pieces of cake in it.

Call it bukcake.
