Kling 1.6, Prompt coherence is significantly improved from 1.5. Lip Sync actually works better than Runways lip Sync. Kling output quality was already better than Runway's so, yeah, it is truly great. The best I am seeing at the moment.
Udio and Runway have changed my life! It’s so much fun to create on the fly, and got me back into physical art as well! 2024 is a year to remember, 2025 is the year of forever
It’ll for sure happen. There are a number of platforms already starting via APIs, but I think that cost will ultimately weigh them down. But I do think in 2025 we’ll see a major swing from someone, maybe Meta? With a “one ring” platform. It’ll be the hotness for a bit, but ultimately fizzle once everyone’s outputs look “same-y” In the end, I think we’ll see a few “do it all” spots, each serving a different audience skill level. The real powerhouse players will be the creators who bash all of them together to create something super unique!

A great premiss for a video Tim. Would have loved to see how the man in a blue suit progressed through the year. Lots of omissions. I'm trying to say this should have been longer! Amazing to think Flux was only 5 months ago. It really did raise the bar. Vidu also came back strong, and LTX made local video generation practical. Honestly, if I could I would step back from video generation for a while, knowing that before long it will be much, much better and easier. VEO 2 has set a new level of realism due to it's inbuilt adherence to physics, but still lacks some of the features we know are possible from other platforms. Hopefully Flux video will be just as transformative as Flux image generation was.
Great video Tim... as always. Amazing how far we have come in one year. The cherry on top of course being Kling 1.6 which i huess was too recent to make the cut... but its showing pretty impressive results. Look forward to 2025,,, im sure this will all just expand exponentially... as per usual lol. Have a great holidays mate... see you next year!!!
Your passion for staying ahead in the fast-paced AI world is truly commendable. The time and effort you invest in testing platforms offer your followers invaluable insights. That said, many platforms and reports about the AI world often lack transparency regarding data handling and licensing agreements. While new features and tools grab attention, details on how user data and creations are managed or what rights users retain are frequently unclear. I’d encourage you to highlight these aspects more in your updates. By shedding light on licensing and data usage, you would help your followers make informed decisions while navigating this complex landscape.
Suno V4 model is already online and available for free testing. Imho, it's better for vocal songs but less so with instrumental only after several days of testing. Suno is definitely the top AI music maker on the market right now.
gotta catch your breath before that big burst of speed! (Actually, I think the olympic runners would disagree...but, just another reason I would never be in the olympics. Wait, is there an AI Olympics? I might be up for that!)
@theoreticallymedia obviously it is not my wording but I interpreted it slightly different. I do like both of our interpretations. I saw it like bending the knee is the final preparations nobody pays attention to, the runner down and setting self up, ready to leap to action. Less about rest but more the work that leads to success. The sprint is the public forward piece which looks tons of speed. However,in reality it is just the public announcements that come fast and furious - the work has been going on for a while. WOW I really over thought that one- tell me you’re autistic without telling me you’re autistic 😂
Thanks for that great summary of the year. What an incredible year for AI image and video generation. I can’t imagine where we’ll be this time next year. I just hope that some of these sites continue to offer (limited) daily credits to allow people to try things out and experiment before subscribing (rather than one-off credits when you sign up)
Am I mistaking or you left LTX Studios out? I think it really is up there and deserves attention! Thanks for the vids though. I always like your stuff and point if views. Happy New Year 2025 to you!
I guess it is yet too early.. we need another 2-3 years.. but maybe first neural nets for 2d games. I mean not diffusion simulations like google showed, but real games that are possible to play and replay.
@@СлаваЛакки 2 or 3 years is way too conservative in my opinion. I'm sure that before 2025 ends, we will be able to generate some 3D games. It won't be perfect yet, but it will still be impressive. I'm talking about a "Sora Moment" for AI generated games. I think that 2025 will be for AI games like how 2024 was for AI videos. We will see some AI generated games that will make our jaws drop, but at the same time there will still be some limitations.
Three minutes into video and I laughed so loud my wife came in and made me explain the "Talking Heads" joke. (She has no idea what EMO is lol) But that was classic... Awesome idea for a video BTY... Because as Maya Angelou said: “You can't really know where you're going until you know where you've been”. I can't say why... but I have a feeling 2025 is going to be NUTS... for some reason I smell AI Remakes hiding in the shadows that could actually have family watching TV together again....Just kidding lol ... not even AI could that... But it's a nice dream. 😃 Thanks for the great content and the laugh!
Merry Christmas / Holidays! crazy to think so much has happened so fast 😵💫 chatgpt only released like 5 years ago. Going from the wright brothers to F15s took 60 something, so it makes you wonder where’ll we be in ten…
unknown as of now-- but being Google, it might be (dare I say) free? It's supposed to be integrated into RUclips, but that might be a "Lite" version. But, I don't actually know. I've got my fingers crossed for low/free though!
It was a great year all round but this was the year for video. It saw advances at a pace that image generation had seen in previous years. Flux was my big one for the year though, even though it's significantly slower on my 3060 than SDXL, it's people loras and training are way ahead of others. I'm sure some still use it but I have to ask, did SD3 and 3.5 essesntially fail in your opinion? Did many really care by the time 3.5 hit as I hardly ever hear 3.5 talked about now. I wonder if audio will see the same pace of advances next year. It's had a good year but still has a long way to go IMO.
Overall AI video as we know it was conceived in 2024, it went from incoherent motion and abstract morphing to coherent and usable genuinely quality 5 second clips. 2025 will be the year of consistent characters and long term coherence, the models released in 2024 were very much proof of concepts, runner ups, and major reconstructions to make models functionable and desirable to use. Now that much of the slats are in place, we will see the first generations of true polish, coherence, more features, higher quality for lower prices and longer form video. In 2026 we should see the advent of the first true fully AI generated video media likely in the form of 5-10 minute stories with an identifiable story arc.
Thanks for your videos. If you ever want to have a substack or the sort, I only have so much time and a limited AI budget. It'd be nice to know what the best audio, video, and image AI subscription is at any given moment, live updated. Would pay for that advice for sure...
The cost of the video generation has priced me out of using them as a casual consumer, especially at the level they're at (still very much trial and error and randomness).
I took a page out of your detective performance playbook and just uploaded my FIRST true blue AI shortfilm using Act 1. The funnies part of my video is when I roll credits and ALL the credits are ME. :)
Awsome video looking back didn't know needed lol and few forgot what companies overprimised didn't deliver but like tim says dont count them out takes time to get the goodies and some worth the wait and love the ones that pop up n blow our minds so many ai vid gem and then sora drop which is def held nack i hope there's gonna be ai video for flux and grok taking it out had me unsubsidize that was my go to and I love glif w it and krea w flux
Midjourney is so behind now. No control even with poses. No real training or consistency vs stable diffusion. Sora waited too long and everyone jumped ahead. It was a meh release. And where is EMO talker. Still waiting for that…gotta go runway.

ruclips.net/video/mcg9-myIdj0/видео.htmlsi=pIVaJhbW0FDV4hvK SIR!!! thank you always for sharing such great news! I tried creating a music video myself using AI. It took me weeks of hard work with countless tools. Except for the music track, I made 99% of it with AI. I hope you enjoy it. Thank you!
That’s wild! And great job with that music video! I can for sure see the work you put into it! That is hardly: “prompt and voila” Seriously, great job there and I see the grind! (Solid track as well!!)
all i want to know ang tell us true why bother veo 2 if its not available till September as google is saying that's even stupider that sora time rubbish
What a year! And don’t forget Kling 1.6 - the last and best publicly available video generation model of 2024 🎉

This is crazy, the amount of things that came out this year. my favourites have been Hailuo, Udio, Kling by far.
2024 has for sure been good to us! Can’t wait to see what surprises 2025 has in store! To think at the start of 24, no one knew those names!
An overwhelming number of AI contenders & competing products. I never thought I'd wish for... "One ring to... bind them."
It’ll for sure happen. There are a number of platforms already starting via APIs, but I think that cost will ultimately weigh them down.

Nice overview, thanks for the "year in review" - and 👍 for the RUSH Permanent Waves album on your mantle this time. Excellent taste in music!
Haha- that was the morning listen! Although not my favorite Rush album, still a killer listen! (I mean, they all kind of are!)
I can't believe this all just happened. Seems like it's been a few years. Great recap.
I know, right?! When you kind of lay it all out, it's pretty mindboggling at how quick everything has happened. 2025 is going to be insane!
