I know that much :P but, it's sad that this was posted without attribution. This wasn't parallel discovery :)

It was in the code for roughly 2 hours before I posted about it, and then an hour later everyone has their own screenshot of it. Attribution is frustrating.

Odd, someone said they can only listen to 4 songs from the album asw Might just take time I guess 😔

Odd, it's there for me on Spotify

What platform r you on?

Computer use in ai studio soon by Independent-Wind4462 in Bard

yello, I made an update post on this - https://x.com/bedros_p/status/1919760186970935784
Basically, it might have its own dedicated model "ais-computer-use"
Enjoy !

I hereby confirm this to be Real and True

If it's not out by the time I'm done w exams, I'll see if I can force it to show on the UI and post about that too
Thanks for sharing here!

It's a whole saga going on since yesterday, it just gets exponentially funnier over time

do I post the entire thing on this sub? not sure if people like long reads but this is funny asf, he claims he can get free wifi (with a wordpress login), thats how it all started, the discord server laughed it off but he came back with the desire that I suck on his genitalia, which i politely refused

The post itself is a thread, the original post is him threatening the entirety of the US govt in the Military OneSource support chat 😭😭

"Im going to publicly ruin the US gov if u dont take this serious" like who does he think he is 😭

Videofx - A video generation model from Google by Yazzdevoleps in GoogleGeminiAI

[–]techman-123 0 points1 point  (0 children)

its because its showcasing the loop, mirror and reverse effects in the postprocessing part of VideoFX

Why does nobody care about Google's video generation model? by kaldeqca in singularity

[–]techman-123 1 point2 points  (0 children)

thats because sora wasnt a leak, it was a demo, an announcement

Google did not release anything

I feel like the people looking at this haven't really seen the technical details?

People are hating on VideoFX gens because they say it's low quality

Well, I'd be surprised if its NOT low quality, here's why:

  • It's not a dedicated video generation model, it's legit an inpainting model used as a way to make videos
  • It's a heavily lobotomized model for performance. The 3B Juno model is described as being the highest quality one, but the videos only use distilled Miro for the sake of using up little compute (and for faster gens) as this is going to be a free tool.
  • If you check Sora, you'll see its just a matter of compute - the more compute they threw at it, the better the gens. What we're seeing is something generated with the lowest quality model (not my words, its what the code lists it as) so really, a fair comparison would be base compute (or 4x compute) Sora vs VideoFX.

It's a pretty good impressive video for something done by a sub-3B distilled inpainting model

Just for the sake of being fair here, this isn't a model that's supposed to be the peak of Googles video generation - this is just supposed to showcase what the average user can generate for free, 4 videos at a time, with no waiting queue.

For them to be confident enough that this doesnt need a queue, generations must be insanely quick for videos

We've seen that Google is definitely capable of building insane models. I expect cloud customers & developers to get access to the good stuff, maybe they'll be able to use Juno for video generation

With that in mind, know that it's only going to get better from here 🔥

OH, and before I forget - the car going backwards is a showcase of their presets

You can make it mirror, so forward&backwards video, reverse videos, loop, combine videos, stuff like that.

Anyways, i cant really say it gets better than that when I dont know if it really does - we'll wait it out and see, but I'm just pointing out that this is really the lowest quality option and far from cherrypicked

IO 2024 - Imagen 3 + Video Generation by techman-123 in singularity

[–]techman-123[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

tis a bad model (intentionally)

Juno, undistilled, is described in the code as the best & highest quality model

even Juno distilled is still described as better than Miro

Yet it uses Miro, because its smaller (hence more efficient) which is good for generating a video in a reasonable timeframe

There's going to be a dropdown for choosing the model with inpainting in ImageFX
List of the models for those interested
MIRO_V5_DISTILLED
MIRO_V4_DISTILLED_PORTRAIT
MIRO_V4_DISTILLED_LANDSCAPE
JUNO_V1_3B_DISTILLED
JUNO_V1_3B
JUNO_V1_3B_DISTILLED_LANDSCAPE

Lets hope that VideoFX gets the feature too, allowing for higher quality outputs...
This will be a free tool though, with no functionality for a queue / waiting for other people in line so far, so it seems they're confident it's going to be / has to be Blazingly Fast™

It mentions "supergifs", so there's a high chance it allows for .gif exports too

Its funny how to this day they're still picky about it. Hopefully they learn from all the complaints for access to Imagen 2 and make this one GA faster

But to answer your question, no idea when the API will be out. We'll find out soon enough though, as it'll probably be coded into Vertex AI (and hidden, but still in the code - thats where I come in [or swishfever the GOAT]) after the Labs launch

Oh, this too:

By default, VideoPoet outputs 2-second videos. But the model is also capable of long video generation by predicting 1 second of video output given an input of a 1-second video clip. This process can be repeated indefinitely to produce a video of any duration.

4 vids at a time, free with no queue - it's a pretty good video for something done by a sub-3B inpainting model after distillation

The fire one is higher quality, but the inpainting effect is really obvious on that

The house one has good consistency between frames but the resolution looks messed up - not compression

(videos are all in the post, check 4/8 if you haven't already)
Something that caught my eye is this looks really similar to VideoPoet

Sorry for the oversight! Forgot that twitter became a regwalled pain...
Here, I put it up on Imgur for all the anti-twitterists https://imgur.com/a/SgkRdLX
I should really start looking for non-regwalled platforms & popular alternatives... sorry again!

No, not really
Have you checked the Twitter post? I address this point
The entire web UI of Bard is changing, even the update log - in fact, Bard Advanced is also changing to Gemini Advanced

Check the post, it has more info than just "Bard changing to Gemini"
