  • #100 Text to video heating up Luma and RunwayML
    Jun 20 2024

    Welcome to the 100th episode of TheChatGPTReport! I'm your host Ryan, here to deliver the latest news in less than 15 minutes from an average guy's perspective. In this milestone episode, we dive into several chunky small news items, including my ongoing rant about AI influencers. I'll share my thoughts on the frustration of AI influencers labeling every new product as a "killer" and the hype surrounding demo videos.


    This week, our creator spotlight is on Nayar (@Blues_Blue34), who created an impressive 20-second Blade Runner-inspired video using Midjourney and Luma Labs AI. Check it out for some cool AI-generated content!


    In small news, OpenAI and Color Health have teamed up to develop an AI assistant for personalized cancer care. Civita, a major AI model platform, has banned everything related to Stable Diffusion 3 due to licensing concerns. Meanwhile, OpenAI CTO Mira Murati and CEO Sam Altman have conflicting statements about their in-house models' capabilities.


    Luma AI's new Dream Machine video generator has received mixed reviews, highlighting the ongoing challenges in AI video generation. Similarly, RunwayML AI's Gen 3 text-to-video tool is being rolled out, but early user experiences suggest it's still a work in progress with significant room for improvement.
