[video] @jason : Google/Gemini and Grok have reached parity, and in some cases are much better, than ChatGPT I use all three, every day, at least 50-100x ... ChatGPT went from 90% of my queries last month to < 50% It's now a data and UI game, and I think Reddit, X/twitter and google's dataset will trounce @openai 's lack of data Remind me of this tweet in one year please Andrew Curran / @andrewcurran_ : Veo 2 looks great, they're not going to let Sora hog the spotlight. Interestingly, according to Google's test results, their strongest competition in generative video is not META, or even Sora, but Kling! [image] Alexander Chen / @alexanderchen : We launched a new, interactive video analyzer in @googleaistudio that you can use to test Gemini 2.0 for video understanding! 🎉 It parses the model's timecode results to make it way easier to explore results. Try it here: https://aistudio.google.com/ ... And here's a demo video of things [video] Logan Kilpatrick / @officiallogank : Introducing the Gemini for Academic Research program, created to help researchers using Gemini models accelerate their research agenda. 🧪🥼 We are supporting researches exploring evaluations, benchmarks, embodiment, science, and more! Apply today: https://ai.google.dev/... Trond Wuellner / @trondw : I've had early access to Veo 2 and am BLOWN AWAY by how far video generation has come. I can't wait to see what you all do with it! @thexeophon : Google's 12 days of shipping are more exciting and they skip days Andrej Karpathy / @karpathy : AI video generation today. When I was back in school, the story of the field of computer graphics (and physically based rendering etc.) was that we will carefully study and model all the object/scene geometry, physics, rendering etc., and after 1000 PhDs and 50 SIGGRAPHs get results like this. That a Transformers can shortcut all of that at this high of fidelity by training on a dataset of videos... Thomas Kipf / @tkipf : Capybara gymnastics ✅ Generated with #Veo2 [video] Bilawal Sidhu / @bilawalsidhu : BREAKING: Google just dropped Veo 2 and Imagen 3 — their next gen video and image generation models.
