Seedance 2.5
- phyzix5761 2mo agoThe emotional delivery is so flat and the words are phrased so awkwardly. They're still a lot of work to be done in this space before its believable.
- HlessClaudesman 2mo agoWhere does the sound on these AI videos come from, is that AI generated in the same pass, a second model, or is it added by a human after the fact?
- nimbleal 2mo agoSame pass.
- ares623 2mo agoIs it just me or are these video models only actual use case is misinformation and spam? Sure they show us quirky and whimsy samples on the release page, but does anyone really believe that?
- charcircuit 2mo agoI get entertainment value out of watching the videos other haves created. I hear of educators creating educational value from the videos they make as it allows them to make higher quality explanations.
- Reubend 2mo agoIt's just you. Any director, storyteller, or filmmaker can see the potential here to realize scenes that simply wouldn't be possible otherwise. But indeed there's plenty of slop coming out too.
- Aldipower 2mo agoP*rn!
- slopinthebag 2mo agoUnironically, it might be more ethical.
- felixgallo 2mo agoOnly if you don’t think about it for more than two or three seconds. Then you remember deepfake revenge porn and elon musk style child sexual material.
- fursgonemild 2mo agoWhat about "beefy animal men pin-ups" and "ideal body self-deepfakes"?

- slopinthebag 2mo agoUnlike the coding models it seems like the generative art models do a lot more harm than good.
- sho_hn 2mo agoI've been having some similar thoughts lately about some application spaces being more harmful than others. Coding, for example, seems somewhat benign, because code has to fulfil clear metrics: Either it works or it doesn't. Either it performs or it doesn't. As long as you are able to provide those metrics, you can to some extent treat it as a black box without losing much from a system view (lifecycle, long-term maintenance, keeping things working, broader qualified efficiency like re-use are of course other stories). But on the other hand, delegating decision-making and thinking to models feels plain harmful to me. I have so many stories around me from office settings these days: "We have to pre-pone meeting XYZ, and we don't have enough time to prepare, so I made this AI analysis <power point deck>". This was then mis-prompted to fit a foregone conclusion, no one has time to do it or capacity to refute a 2000 word slop deck (except by slopping back), and crazy stuff becomes plan of record. This is really going to be a problem for organizations ...
- sumedh 2mo ago> pre-pone That is an Indian English word, most non Indian English speakers are not familiar with it. reschedule or bring forward would be more appropriate for a global audience.
- deleted 2mo ago[deleted]
- sho_hn 2mo agoI'm not Indian, and I see it used quite a bit by non-Indians :-) I also don't think it's difficult to understand given the prevalence of "post-pone".
- fursgonemild 2mo agoOf course not. You can use them to make objectively silly fetish fodder, too.
- a1371 2mo agoThere are thriving Ai video communities who are trying to replicate big budget productions with indie resources. Look up Gossip Goblin. There's a parallel explosion of memes at the same time, like Balenciaga Harry Potter
- pona-a 2mo agoSo brainrot? I don't want to belittle anyone's creative pursuits, but really, I struggle to see how "Balenciaga Harry Potter" is any more artistic than "Italian Animals".
- chrsw 2mo agoI think that will remain the use case of these tools as long as it is still so easy to tell they don't represent reality very well. Maybe that's a good thing, maybe we're not ready for a world where any video longer than a brief clip is indistinguishable from reality. Also, much of the promotion of these tools come from a population of people unhappy with the current state of the real content creation industry that use real footage and real people because AI movie promoters see traditional media as mainly propaganda machines anyway, so these tools sort help level the playing field.
- cchance 2mo agoI belive thats what it WILL be, its heavily used in scammy and poltiical bullshit currently, but its only a matter of time until the cost vs benefit makes sense for hollywood and companies to start using it for actual commercials and tv shows and special effects etc for major videos.
- eur0pa 2mo agoMisinformation, phishing campaigns, brainrot...
- hattimaTim 2mo agoMarketers are creating legit ads with these.
- Jtarii 2mo agoI'm sorry but who cares. Ads are just spam but "official".
- ragequittah 2mo agoSeems to be about $800 billion cares. Personalized advertising takes on a whole new meaning if people get to make ads on the fly. I hate everything about it but it's no doubt coming.
- Gecko4072 2mo agoHave already seen countless major ad spots using ai generated videos; big name companies. One major use case.
- zmmmmm 2mo agoit seems perfect for that - maintaining coherence over 30s-1min type window is achievable and so many ads are built on unrealistic premise to begin with. To me, just reducing the cost alone seems secondary, far more important is putting the actual creative and marketing people directly in control of the output. Maybe the end result still gets sent to a pro studio for final production, but letting the true stakeholders directly create what they want could be a killer app. It may also be a terrible idea, like Homer Simpson's car - but that won't stop it being successful.
- CamperBob2 2mo agoNo weights, no care.
- mcintyre1994 2mo agoThis seems extraordinarily good to me, compared to what I've seen before. Their washing machine advert example seems like it's as good as anything else on social media. I'm shocked by the quality and the coherence they're able to maintain, I assume it's really good at using those reference images they mention in their prompts. I think the only one that's noticeably bad is the concert hall, where the first few seconds show almost empty stalls and then toward the end it shows a full audience, and that audience also looks a bit off.
- arunkant 2mo agoThis looks insane!
- esafak 2mo agoI'm looking forwarding to AI-based video refactoring for when you want to tweak them.
- locusofself 2mo agoThe video is silly but the quality is very impressive. We are very close to climbing out the other side of the uncanny valley.
- imtany 2mo agohttps://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=49122670 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=49122670
- markfsharp 2mo agoYes, it is awesome. Funny we got this level of capability now and we all take it in our stride. Growing up in the 80's I loved futuristic scifi, feels like I am in it now. And even I am 'just' taking it in my stride.
- jillesvangurp 2mo agoSpeaking of the eighties, special effects were still done without CGI and typically on the cheap. That didn't make the movies and television series any less fun to watch. In the end it's about what people do with the tools, not the quality of the tools. People commenting on how these generated videos are not perfect or are getting some details wrong, look at some blockbuster movies from last century. It's very easy to spot the special effects. And it did not matter. But yes 80s science fiction is now science fact. Talking cars like in night rider are now definitely a thing. Some can even drive themselves. The robots in Buck Rogers, Star Wars, etc. look clumsy and fake compared to the real humanoid bots we are now starting to see. More close to I Robot, which when it came out 22 years ago was pure science fiction.
- galkk 2mo ago> That didn't make the movies and television series any less fun to watch. Unfortunately it doesn’t apply to everybody :( Babylon 5 was mind blowing when I was a kid, and today the space and other sci fi parts from there, when I see them on YouTube, are quite cringe. Show is still great, but that’s the part where I’d be totally fine if some modern consistent ai re-rendered cgi to something more pleasant.
- Keyframe 2mo agoYou know what, in my previous life as a filmmaker I could've only dreamed of such a thing. Filmmaking is an art form which you cannot do alone. Outside of a lot of time and money, you need cooperation of a number of people and each day of production you end up accumulating a set of compromises to your vision. Your taste is what makes you tolerate that or not, and it's exhausting. It matters if you're the author since at the end of the day it's your name on it, not the crew (as much). Now that we have these tools, I don't know but I am absolutely disinterested in it. Not that it doesn't feel right or anything, but I'm just not excited enough even to want to try to materialize some of my "big game" stuff. Closest thing I'd compare it with is like when you pirate a bunch of games and you play none as a result of abundance. Weird-ass times.
- onlyrealcuzzo 2mo agoWas just going to say... Even if all AI gives me is the opportunity to bring my visions to life even somewhat terribly... That's a lot better than I'd be able to do without it. Which is for them to go nowhere. I'll take it.
- zmmmmm 2mo agoThe thing is, it has the same essential property that you don't control it any more. The problem with these tools is the lack of fine grained control means there is no room for you to express your individual creative input. Your total input is a few sentences of a prompt, then the AI did all the creative part. If the creative input is what you enjoyed, it is actually not that much more (or even less) here than it was with traditional film.
- prodigycorp 2mo agoThis is a matter of effort and direction and not an inherent flaw of the tools. Look at Apple's recent image tools to change perspective. Tools to improve artistry are improving.
- galkk 2mo agoCould you tell more? Is it new iOS features?
- damsta 2mo agoI don't think audio, image or video generation should exist. I haven't seen enough positive applications to justify the amount of harm these tools are being used to cause.
- p-e-w 2mo ago[flagged]
- E-Reverance 2mo ago> I haven't seen enough positive applications If in the future they can create a reward model to aid with creating super human levels of appeal tailored to me, I would considered it one of the best technologies ever made. I'm not sentimental about the source, pretty videos and pictures make me happy
- argentinian 2mo agoNow they cause harm because there's people that may believe a fake video is real. But people is developing skepticism about what they see in videos and learning to think that they may be generated, before taking them as true. What kind of harms do you have in mind?
- Nition 2mo agoNo longer being able to tell whether any image or video is real due to the extreme ease of creating realistic fakes, is itself a harm.
- jay_kyburz 2mo agoIt might actually be helpful to push through and out to the other side. Think about how many completely fake videos are going to be flying around for the next election. Nobody is going to believe anything the see online. What is the the next stage, where the only things you believe are things you see with your own eyes.
- 2mo ago
- system2 2mo agoThe first video is wild. I thought the office workers were real. Jesus Christ.
- heresalexandria 2mo agoBeen using this and it’s really a phenomenal model, big step up in quality and capability. This feels like the serious inflection point for high quality full length feature film productions using this tech.

- jjcm 2mo agoThe quality is quite high, but an observation is the direction they're taking these models correlates heavily to the usage demand of China vs the West. Specifically, they're immensely focused on t2v for action / high effect shots. There's one human reference shot in the entire release page, and that one doesn't focus on dialog at all. For filmmakers I've talked to in the US, one of the biggest demands they have is v2v where they can carry over an actor's performance and insert it into whatever world they want. The movie market in China is somewhat different though - it's heavily oriented towards high action / high special effect movies. Consider this list of hollywood movies that have flopped in the US, but did great in China: Warcraft (China: $225m box office, US: $47m) Resident Evil (China: $159m, US: $27m) xXx: Return of Xander Cage (China: $164m, US: $44m) Pacific Rim: Uprising (China: $99m, US: $59m) One read of this is that action movies / visual spectacles translate more universally than dialog-based movies. Another read is culturally China prefers that type of content in general. I suspect that for Bytedance, their focus is on action / special effects because thats where they see the demand.
- tonyhart7 2mo agowhy you also didn't consider population size different ??? China have 1.5 billion people vs US 350 ish
- benjiro29 2mo agoRepost from above: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Film_industry#Largest_markets_ https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Film_industry#Largest_markets_... ("Largest markets by box office revenue") United States and Canada $8,870,000,000 2025[175] Europe $8,200,000,000 2024[176] China $7,400,000,000 2025[177] Que revenue China is the same as Europe/US. Population does not matter so much, its revenue generated by the area.
- cyanydeez 2mo agohong kong films is the mirror image of hollywood and fantasy/action are a lot more popular than american. But you're probably just blundering with value comparison since just per capita, your numbers arn't that' extreme, still the point stands.
- iamleppert 2mo agoWhere can you actually get access to these models that isn't an outright scam? All the sites that promised to have Seedance 2 turned out to be scams. Does anyone know how to actually use it, and is it available to run yourself?
- base698 2mo agoYeah wondering that. I ended up almost paying for one when 2.0 came out. Still not sure I've found something official.
- radicality 2mo agoOpenrouter has video generation also. They do have Seedance which afaik routes via something called ‚atlas cloud’, but it did work.
- thelucent 2mo agoDreamina (https://dreamina.capcut.com/ https://dreamina.capcut.com/) is the “official” access for this. IIRC they give Seedance 2.5 yesterday. Byteplus API is the official way to access it as an API but I am not sure if they serve 2.5 yet.
- JimsonYang 2mo agoThey have not. It also seems the dreamina acess is delayed for the US
- ronsor 2mo agoSeedance 2.5 looks amazing, but MiniMax H3 is going to be open weights within 24 hours: https://fal.ai/minimax-h3 https://fal.ai/minimax-h3. According to the ComfyUI team, it should even work acceptably on mid-range consumer GPUs like the 3080. I'd honestly take the slight quality hit for more control and lower costs.
- SV_BubbleTime 2mo agoNew model day, here we go again! It’s a week of madness and all the wrong advice… and at the end of the week, the model is either dead or a massive hit. There is little middle ground. I’m watching H3 to see if it fixes the nonsense that LTX introduced and what happens next… WAN is due, LTX says a new model is coming, Flux3 does video. It went from zero video models to a lot of options due this year.
- razster 2mo agoThis. I'm very much happy to see minimax-h3 be released. I have so many projects that I have on the back burner that I could complete within minutes instead of hours and hours. "Typography, UI, and Graphics".
- scamdrill 2mo agoThis will make longer (~30s) narrative add creation a lot better and more interesting at a reasonable price tag--roughly $7 best I can tell. Looking forward to trying it out.
- SadErn 2mo ago[dead]
- 05980380443 2mo agoPerfect for generating the mindless garbage that tiktok junkies are dependent upon.
- neom 2mo agoThere is a woman on twitter who makes seedance videos of her and Dario from anthropic, they're kinda weird but generally pretty high quality: https://x.com/CuiMao/status/2058458683781365873 https://x.com/CuiMao/status/2058458683781365873 (full collection: https://x.com/CuiMao/status/2082740754380984373 https://x.com/CuiMao/status/2082740754380984373) - seeing them was the first time I'd been impressed with AI video gen.
- wenc 2mo agoThat is absolutely hilarious. Dario Amodei, a romcom lead.
- sumedh 2mo agoI dont normally like AI videos but this was just amazing, by next year the tech will be perfect, cheaper, we are going to AI videos everywhere whether anyone likes it or not.
- deadbabe 2mo agopeople like it. Maybe not older generations, but we're about to get a fresh new generation of people that will not have a lifetime of experience looking at human generated content, and so have no real bias against AI content. And then every generation after that will be born into increasingly a AI-video rich world.
- ElProlactin 2mo ago> And then every generation after that will be born into increasingly a AI-video rich world. So 2-3 generations if we're lucky.
- schleck8 2mo ago5 years. Most people do not care where what they consume originates (out of sight, out of mind) as long as it's highly personalized and abundant
- 2mo ago
- ashu1461 2mo agoWeird there is no option to sign up and try the model out.
- JimsonYang 2mo agoIts not released in the US yet
- getstowly 2mo agoThe quality of AI videos is blowing my mind. I can still see things that seem a bit "off" but it's hard to distinguish AI videos from real videos. Even blockbuster movies are starting to be dwarfed by what AI can create. How long until we see the first full length AI movie hit the theaters? No actors, no development team, just a guy prompting AI...
- bensyverson 2mo agoPeople said this kind of thing about MiniDV cameras, and then iPhones. The reality is that technology hasn't been a barrier for filmmakers for a very long time. Writing is still the hard part.
- userbinator 2mo agoOr more precisely, coming up with something interesting that people will like.
- bensyverson 2mo agoYes, the writing just has a disproportionate impact on this outcome.
- orbital-decay 2mo agoIt has improved a lot, but these demo reels still have all AI video issues. Flash cut salad (including the scenes that should have longer cuts), unnatural motion that looks animated, unprompted YouTube-face acting, etc. Admittedly it's all a lot less pronounced in this version. What is much more interesting is how well it behaves off distribution (e.g. how far it can deviate from that movie/trailer aesthetics and still stay coherent)
- Genego 2mo agoWhenever I see the new releases around video generation (and image) generation models, I get goosebumps, because it just feels so fun to work with them. But then I remember that I spend upwards of $10k on inference generating well over 50k images for storyboards, training models; and probably creating almost an hour of video (I assume). Yeah, I get that things can be economic if you don't use the latest models (ran some case studies on this), but the latest models are the most fun to work with. It doesn't scale as well as "vibe coding" stuff together on the weekend. And when things work really well its almost as if you're seeing an zoopraxiscope come to life for the first time; and you just want to keep going. I got a few offers to work with some startups in this space, but it also seems that many startups work on stuff that just doesn't seem to be very worthwhile (like creating masses of spam for YT or TikTok shorts), or even straight out morally/ethically wrong (cloning/deepfakes, etc). But seeing advances in this space; and coming from a filmmakers background, I might just end up being naturally drawn to this space on an engineering level and figuring something out along the way. As you can see I worked on a lot of stuff just for the fun of it, and documenting the process: https://edwin.genego.io/blog https://edwin.genego.io/blog (but I stopped at the beginning of the year .... might.. just pick it up again.
- woctordho 2mo agoMiniMax H3 is going to release weights. You can locally run it with definitely less than $10k (and possibly faster than Seedance's queue), and it's fun to train it for whatever you need.
- Genego 2mo agoAwesome! Have been a bit in the dark of the latest models, will have a look. I am due an upgrade for my local machine and GPU, so that excites me as well.
- pwython 2mo agoH3 results are underwhelming compared to LTX 2.3 so far: https://www.reddit.com/r/StableDiffusion/comments/1vciy35/ltx_23_vs_h3_same_prompts_t2v/ https://www.reddit.com/r/StableDiffusion/comments/1vciy35/lt... Perhaps refined ComfyUI workflows will squeeze more quality out of it, but it's definitely not in the realm of Seedance, and Lightricks is training LTX 2.5/"LTX-Next".
- sickcodebruh 2mo agoThe sample video looks incredible and the ability to keep details consistent for so long is impressive but it _still_ looks screams of AI in every single shot. I can’t put my finger on why, something about the way the rooms are put together, the expressions of the faces, the movements… It’s very unsettling.
- zuzululu 2mo agoNo need to fret, this is the worst it's going to be. Remember, Will Smith + Spaghetti videos?
- deadbabe 2mo agoIt could also still be the best it's ever going to be.
- zuzululu 2mo agounlikely unless they ban capitalism
- ryan_n 2mo agoUnfortunately trillions of dollars have been invested to ensure that's not the case..
- Veedrac 2mo agoAnybody old enough to remember when https://imagen.research.google/video/ https://imagen.research.google/video/ was SOTA?
- zuzululu 2mo agodo you remember that article from google where it would hallucinate as if it was on acid/psychedelics and people going crazy saying this is the AI "imagining reality" and then shortly after some Googler went on a very brief media tour saying LLMs were sentient? its crazy how much people extrapolate, the consensus back then was "cute but we won't get there" then suddenly we got GPT 3.0, 4o, 5.x, seedance what people really underestimate is how much faster progress is now with AI

- Big_Moe 2mo agoWe are officially one step closer to Interdimensional Cable!
- arjie 2mo agoThe video quality is insane, but is there a model that doesn't make video where it looks like the characters are pausing at the end of their lines for a laugh track? There just seems to be an extra couple of beats after someone says something where they just stand dead still. What's the deal with that?
- sheept 2mo agoVideo generation models generate videos of a predetermined duration, so if a character finishes a line but there's still seconds remaining, then the model still has to fill it in
- throwoutway 2mo agoWho here is using Jimeng AI or Doubao Pro? Is it comparable to Claude / Gemini / GPT?
- cchance 2mo agoJesus christ, did you people watch those videos! there so long and coherent and WOW.
- geoffbp 2mo agoThey’re* Sorry
- r0fl 2mo agoWhere can you use seance to make movies? Do you have to sign up to a. Third party? Do they have an official app I don’t know about or is there an api. I just can’t figure it out!! There are no stupid questions only stupid people.. when it comes to figuring this out I’m one of those people
- kitchi 2mo agoAFAIK there are providers that give you API access to Seedance, like OpenRouter etc.
- r0fl 2mo agoI’ll try through there but I’m more curious if there is a ChatGPT or Claude monthly subscription that is subsidized by investors to grow so I can play around more freely
- yorwba 2mo agoFrom the article: > Today, Seedance 2.5 is rolling out on Jimeng AI, Doubao Pro, and other platforms, with API access coming soon via BytePlus ModelArk. Jimeng is https://jimeng.jianying.com/ https://jimeng.jianying.com/ (I'm pretty sure, there are a lot of copycats, but this one uses Douyin SSO for login, so seems legit) and available in English as "Dreamina" https://dreamina.capcut.com https://dreamina.capcut.com / https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.lemon.dreamina https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.lemon.drea...

- yorwba 2mo agoWhy amplify the copycat spam domains?
- userbinator 2mo agoMuch like the widespread availability of cameras has caused a massive increase in photos of things that would otherwise not have been photographed, I think widespread availability of AI video/image generation will cause a massive increase in media from everyone who wants to show their thoughts to others. Of course the vast majority will be uninteresting slop, because most people just aren't very creative or original, but there will definitely be more chances for those who are. The popularity of AI parody videos is a sure sign of things to come.
- JimsonYang 2mo agoFyi based on what people are saying on twitter, seedance 2.5 is ~2x as expensive. For a 30 second generation at dreamina it costs 1440 credits or around $15
- echelon 2mo agoWhich is next to nothing compared to the cost of a movie, animated TV show, or quality YouTube video.
- hahahaa 2mo agoIt is not a movie though. It's a take.
- rudolftheone 2mo agoWait, but you compare the cost of animated show or a movie which is in its final, acceptable quality! The cost of that $15 per 30sec is NOT FINAL - you'll pretty much end up deciding you want another take - either due to some inconsistencies, non-physical movements, or anything else, which screams "that's fake". So the cost is most probably much higher; how much higher? We don't really know, as there are virtually no acceptable shows created by that tool yet (until there is something I don't know about).
- userbinator 2mo agoMy experience with AI image generation is--- If you want something vague and generic and don't particularly care about the details, then maybe you can get want you want on the first try, but you'll likely just get what everyone would call "slop". If you have something very specific in mind, then expect to spend several dozen generations before you get what you want, or something close to it, and then you may still have to spend more time making final adjustments manually in an image editor. ...and this is just for one image. I have not tried AI video production yet but I imagine it would involve considerably more effort. $15/30s is $1800/hr, so assuming 1/10 generations are good, that's $18000/hr for final content. A few orders of magnitude below professional movies for sure, but still not trivial.
- JimsonYang 2mo agoI would like to see seedance 2.5 at 1080 vs seedance 2.0 but at 4k to see which models outperform From our experience putting in more money leads to more computerand better performance from the prompt
- wxw 2mo agoIf we pinned quality here and focused on cost and speed, video models could become fantastic general creative tools. I think the emphasis on using them for ads & monetizable slop is because they’re currently too expensive and thus usually need to be part of a revenue generating pipeline.

- hrmon 2mo agoIn second video, Look at the reflection of the staff member headset :) Such models will have fascinating use-cases. But "generating realistic content" is a comedic resemblance of realism movement in painting.
- Cyan488 2mo agoGood spot, but the AI tells are getting so so much harder to spot. If I had to guess, models have producing content that is, for most of the population, indistinguishable from reality for at least 6-12mo. Very few people will watch a video frame by frame to pick up on or check for artifacts, especially in the places most of the population watch video (tiktok, Facebook). I have no doubt that, just like the fast corrections to 8 fingers, the final edge cases like reflections are being ironed out in future model training.

- tgv 2mo agoWhy do people keep making these models? Don't they care about the effects this has? It's either that, or they do it on purpose. Just let people push clips about foreigners eating dogs, Jews dry-bleeding babies or the police choking another black man on TikTok, and sit back. "In the midst of chaos, there is also opportunity."

- ziofill 2mo agoI acknowledge (and agree) with the sentiments against slop. But should we also entertain the possibility that AI content might become more engaging and entertaining than human content? To me this is far scarier and concerning than a flood of mid-level crap.
