CogVideo VS stable-diffusion-webui-feature-showcase

Additionally two open source demo models [CogVideo[(https://github.com/THUDM/CogVideo) by a groups of cs students a model by [Antonia Antonova](https://antonia.space/text-to-video-generation) and have presented their own innovative methods of generating video from text

The second thing that will happen is the appearance of AI video and audio. Google has shown two programs for video generation, one which is fairly high quality and the other which can make long videos with several scenes. Meta has also demonstrated their own. We've already seen other projects like CogVideo, as well as many others that are currently being worked on. It's likely that these techniques will become so refined that over the next year or two, they'll have a similar boom to image generation programs. And eventually, they'll have a similar application in video editing, once coherence is adequate enough. Select a person's shirt, and it stays that for the remainder of the scene. Change an actor's hairstyle in real time, or add characters that didn't exist into a scene and let the computer figure out the desired level of realism. This'll revolutionize VFX to a degree where making an effects heavy will be less about wrangling complex toolsets and more about making aesthetic choices of style and placement.

Check out https://github.com/THUDM/CogVideo - progress is being made on coherent video generation.

Characters and dialogue are effectively solved, just look at GPT-3.

The entity behind StableDiffusion is also supporting generative music art, so let's see what is coming out of that: https://www.harmonai.org/

We are currently far away from generating a production quality movie with AI, but I don't think it's going to be nearly as long as a lifetime. In my opinion, we'll have high quality AI shorts within the decade.

CogVideo and a CogView web app.

A better comparison to AI music generation would be video generation, which has not improved much since i saw first examples some years ago. The last iteration is stuff like CogVideo and this is only able to generate 4 second videos with mid-strong artifacts.

Here's a quick rundown on a few of the most popular ones with links. I started out using CMDR2, which is very easy to get running as a newbie. Then I kind of graduated to NMKD because I wanted something a little more mainstream but still easy to use. Then, I finally decided I was hungry for all the strange and exotic bells and whistles that SD had to offer me, and so I installed Automatic1111. I also wanted something that would work well with my 4GB GTX 1650 laptop card, because that's considered "low ram" and kind of on the edge for running SD- Automatic1111 fit the bill there, too.

All generations were on the "Berry's Mix" model, which is made by combining NAI-final, Zenith's F111, r34 and SD1.4 according to this recipe. I used 30ish steps when generating images and inpainting, but 70-80 steps when outpainting because I read here that outpainting really benefits from extra steps. When outpainting I would generate 2-4 versions and pick the least broken one, then tidy up with inpainting.

sounds like "outpainting", one of the very first features listed on 1111 repo with some instructions: https://github.com/AUTOMATIC1111/stable-diffusion-webui-feature-showcase

I have no idea what you're talking about. Just get Automatic1111
