Competition is great.

It looks like OpenAI and Anthropic are competing to see who can suck up to users harder, just to keep them from jumping off their train and hopping onto the competitor’s.

OpenAI went ahead and dropped API prices for SOL 5.6 by 20% for a whole THREE months.

Anthropic was like: fine, we’re extending the increased weekly Claude Code limits through August 31.

Users: message received, keep it coming. Ox Alpha is completely free anyway, so we’ll be waiting for even more concessions.

Hyperion 2.5:

Topaz has released Hyperion 2.5 — an SDR→HDR model aimed at 8-bit AI video. Instead of simply repacking footage into 10-bit, it reconstructs additional luminance and color information and outputs 10-bit ProRes, H.265, or 16-bit EXR.

This matters because heavily compressed 8-bit GenAI footage quickly falls apart during aggressive grading, compositing, or HDR work. Hyperion processes it before grading, making it behave more like a high-bit-depth source.

Darren Aronofsky’s Primordial Soup has already used it to convert GenAI footage to 10-bit ProRes before heavy color work and reduce visible banding.

It can’t recover data that never existed — this is AI reconstruction, essentially a smart HDR remaster, not camera RAW.

There are still some 16-bit EXR color-management issues, but it’s a promising step toward making GenAI footage more suitable for high-end post. Hyperion 2.5 is available in Topaz Video, locally or via cloud rendering.


Dreamina just added Seedance 2.5 in 1080p 🚀

Using the current exchange rate, the pricing comes out to roughly:

≈ $0.95 per second

So a 30-second video costs around $28.50–$30.90.

In short: a good working estimate for Seedance 2.5 1080p right now is about $0.95/sec, or roughly $29–31 for 30 seconds.

LTX fires back with LTX-2.5 — a new open 22B video/audio world model.

Highlights: better motion quality, improved prompt understanding, native multishot with character/voice consistency, 4K HDR, RAW workflow, and precise video editing.

The big flex is speed + local inference: 16 GB VRAM minimum, ComfyUI support, open weights, and 10s I2V in 6.8s on 2× GB200.

LTX also published comparisons vs H3, Seedance, Kling, Veo and Grok — and Reddit is already roasting the methodology.

Marketing or not, this one is worth testing.


Wan 3.0 is here! 🚀

In short: Alibaba has officially launched the public beta of Wan 3.0. The new model can generate videos with audio up to 30 seconds long in 480p, 720p, and 1080p.

New features also include automatic duration selection, video continuation, and improved consistency of characters, objects, and scenes across longer clips.

https://article.9466.com/news/aKweEQlm

API pricing:

480p — around $0.04 per second

720p — around $0.08 per second

1080p — around $0.17 per second

That means a maximum 30-second video costs approximately $1.25 at 480p, $2.50 at 720p, and around $5 at 1080p.

But there’s a catch: when using a video reference, Alibaba charges not only for the generated output but also for the duration of the uploaded reference video.

The formula is: input video + generated video.

For example, a 10-second reference combined with a 30-second 1080p output would cost approximately $6.70.

Guys! AI Video wars are on!

FLUX 3 Video is here, and this could be Seedance 2.5’s biggest rival yet. It generates up to 20-second videos in native 1080p with audio, multilingual dialogue, text-to-video, image-to-video, multiple frames, and video continuation. I made this Riftfall trailer with it, and honestly, the cinematic quality looks wild. FLUX 3 is available now through the API and open weights coming soon. Could this beat Seedance 2.5?

Grok Video 1.5 vs. Seedance 2.5.


Try New RIFTFALL Demo!

Sixty minutes. No level locks, no "first three maps then buy it." The whole game is unlocked — twenty arenas, six weapons, every boss that wants you dead. The only thing counting down is you.

Grab the Breacher. Grab the Vulcan, the Arc Rail, the Flamer. Kill a dragon. Kill a tripod the size of a cathedral. Ride a train. Get eaten by something in the dark and try again, faster.

When the clock hits zero, it stops. What you did with the hour is on you.

Hell was a cakewalk. This is the main course.

MiniMax H3
MiniMax has started rolling out Hailuo H3, the next generation of its video model. It's more than an upgrade to Hailuo 2.3, combining video generation, directing, and audio in one system. H3 supports text-to-video, image-to-video, multi-scene generation, character consistency from reference images, and prompt-based editing.
The only catch is that the official MiniMax website still lists Hailuo 2.3 as the public model, suggesting H3 is being released through partners and selected users.
H3 generates 5–15 second videos in native 2K at 24 FPS with synchronized audio. It accepts text prompts, a starting or ending frame, up to nine images, three video references, and three audio files. Multi-shot scenes and consistent characters are supported.
The motion quality looks impressive.
Official pricing hasn't been announced, but one statement claims:
"It uses the same amount of consumption as Seedance 2.0's 480p at 2K resolution."
If true, 2K generation in H3 costs about the same as 480p in Seedance 2.0.

Flux 3 is pretty good!

One prompt. It edits everything by itself. 20 seconds. Great voiceover—and thankfully, no lip sync is needed here.

We were waiting for Sora 3, but got Flux the Third instead.


FLUX 3 Image + Video 👀

Black Forest Labs is turning FLUX into a unified multimodal model for images, video, audio, and text.

Key features:
• Videos up to 20 seconds with native audio
• Text-to-video, image-to-video, and video-to-video
• Video continuation with sound
• Character consistency across scenes
• Image generation and editing

FLUX 3 Video is already in limited Early Access. FLUX 3 Image, API access, open weights, and robotics tools are planned next.

No release date or pricing yet.


Higgsfield has launched a new Community section.

There are quite a few insightful resources there.

You can browse completed projects (videos) and see not only the prompt, but also all the assets used, the total number of generations, the number of credits spent, and in some cases even the failed generations and how many there were. Many creators also provide detailed breakdowns of their entire workflow.

It’s a really useful way to get a sense of the resources and effort behind different projects.

They’ve also significantly expanded their new Academy section.

From a community-building and ecosystem perspective, they’re doing a great job.

Alibaba Announces Qwen3.8 — a New Open-Weight Rival to Kimi K3

Alibaba has teased Qwen3.8, its new flagship model with 2.4 trillion parameters. It will launch soon as an open-weight model, but architecture, context length, and benchmark results have not yet been revealed.

The announcement appears to challenge Moonshot AI’s Kimi K3, a 2.8-trillion-parameter MoE model with native image and video understanding and a 1M-token context window.

Qwen3.8-Max-Preview is already available through:

• QwenCloud Token Plan
• Qoder
• QoderWork

It is not yet available in the free Qwen Studio chat.


Lucy 2.5 – Real-Time Video Compositing and Editing

The idea itself isn’t exactly new—we’ve already seen similar approaches in LivePortrait, InfiniteTalk, and, of course, Kling’s Motion Control.

You upload an image of a character, take a video of yourself (or a more talented actor) performing in front of the camera, and your character instantly mimics those movements. In the 3D world, this is called retargeting.

But here’s the exciting part:

Everything happens in real time.

Just load an image, turn on your webcam, and start streaming at 24–30 FPS with minimal latency. The developers claim near-zero latency, although in real-world conditions, once internet transmission is factored in, I’d expect around 1–2 seconds of delay.


Prompts for a Frozen Camera in Seedance 2.0

A single continuous handheld handycam shot in slow motion, drifting and weaving organically through a completely frozen party scene. Every person is suspended mid-motion, like a living diorama. The camera gently circles and floats through the space with subtle handheld shake, creating a natural, immersive perspective. The environment remains perfectly still while only the camera moves. One seamless, uninterrupted slow-motion take.


A few rumors about Seedance 2.5 pricing.

I’m deliberately calling them rumors because I can’t verify the information from the video. The Jimeng website only has a Seedance 2.5 banner, but no pricing details.

Roughly speaking, on a per-second basis, Seedance 2.5 appears to be about 1.5 times more expensive than 2.0 for 720p. That’s what the first row indicates.

There’s no data yet for 1080p or 4K.

For now, we’re looking at roughly $5 for 30 seconds of 720p video.

However, this is not API pricing. It’s based on some fairly complicated calculations involving subscription plans and credits.

Overall, I wouldn’t trust these figures completely, but I would use them as a rough estimate — around a 1.5x price increase.


This is WILD.

GPT-5.6 by @OpenAI just dropped and the model war got messy fast.

Fable 5 still looks like the raw intelligence king, sitting at 60 on Artificial Analysis.

But GPT-5.6 Sol is right behind at 59, takes #1 in coding agents with 80, and does it at roughly one-third the cost.

Meanwhile Grok 4.5 @grok is the chaos pick. Not the smartest, but cheap, fast, efficient, and suddenly close enough to make everyone nervous.

So the race is no longer just “who is smartest?”

It’s Fable for raw brain. But too expensive!
GPT-5.6 for work and coding.
Grok 4.5 for price pressure and speed.
AI labs are not fighting for benchmarks anymore.
They’re fighting for who becomes the default worker.


Seedream 5.0 PRO

If you’re tired of Banana’s recent glitches, here’s a new toy.

Seedream 5.0 Pro is focused on editing tools: select an area with a point, box, lasso, color mark, or sketch, then add/remove objects, change colors by HEX, replace materials, or turn sketches into finished designs.

The underrated part: layers — PNG with transparency. It can split an image into 10+ independent layers: text, background, characters, decorations, and even restore hidden background areas.

Also: lots of focus on infographics and text. Weirdly, native resolution seems capped at 2K.

Available via API on BytePlus and aggregators.

Price-wise, it looks about half the cost of Banana — but check for yourself.

I also made a Seedream 5.0 Pro vs GPT-Image-2 comparison.

The one with the bigger white car is Seedream. Both look great.


META JUST CRASHED INTO THE VIDEO AI RANKINGS. 🔥
Meta Muse Video @AIatMeta just landed at #3 in the Text-to-Video @arena with a 1459 score.

It beats Alibaba’s HappyHorse 1.0 by +30 points and ranks ahead of Sora 2 Pro, Grok Imagine and Google Veo-3.1.

But the real question is timing.

Seedance 2.5 is also dropping, and if it brings stronger motion, longer usable shots, better consistency, and real creator controls, Muse Video might not hold that spot for long.

Still, this is a huge signal. Meta is officially at the video AI frontier now.

The video model war is getting brutal.
