have a massive GPU cluster and developed our own infrastructure to manage the cluster and train massive models.

There's how it works:

1. You upload the dataset with preconfigured format into HuggingFa\u0441e [1].

2. Choose your LLM (e.g. LLaMa 70B, Mistral 7B)

3. Place your submission into the queue

4. Wait for it to get trained.

5. Then you get your trained model there on HuggingFace.

Essentially, why would we want to do it?

1. We already have an experience with training big LLMs.

2. We could achieve near-perfect infrastructure performance for training.

3. Sometimes GPUs have just nothing to train.

Thus we thought it would be cool if we could utilize our GPU cluster 100%. And give back to Open Source community (already built an e2e distributed training framework [2]).

This is in an early stage, so you can expect some bugs.

Credits I did not use would expire every month....EVEN THOUGH I PAID FOR IT

So I built a free open source repo of creative production skills for AI agents.

So basically, you just install this skill package in Claude (or any agent you use) and say "Create a summer sale UGC video for my product". And it handles the rest. You obviously stay in control all along.

And:

You can use your own API keys...which adds ZERO markup on the model provider costs

There is no subscription. You only pay for what you use and nothing EXPIRES

And no more switching between tools and no more copy pasting

I just had a talk with one of my first ongoing clients, who sort of helped me kickstart my freelancing "career". He is one of those people who has a broad understanding of the tech out there, and what its capabilities are, but is not a programmer. He wanted to show me, and get my opinion on a restaurant management app that he's been using Lovable to develop. Admittedly, a lot of it is very impressive, and he has obviously become very good at using these tools. Part of that scares me, but I've largely accepted the reality that my skillset has to expand beyond being a React code monkey (wish is not what I am, but you get the point).

I'm also an artist who had a somewhat successful run as a touring musician, much to the detriment of my career growth (not much money in Punk).

I feel the hobbies that I've been nurturing for my entire life are being destroyed by people who have finally found an entry point that requires the smallest amount of effort. We are literally watching the dead internet happen in real time, social media turning into a AI slop gallery, AI music topping the charts, and I just had a one-on-one conversation with someone that just doesn't care, because they get to feel creative for possibly the first time ever.

Most current video models treat audio as a post-processing step. Seedance 2.0 appears to condition the diffusion process on audio features directly, which would explain the beat-sync behavior. The multi-reference @ tagging system (@image1 for composition, @video1 for motion, @audio1 for rhythm) suggests a mixture-of-conditions architecture rather than simple concatenation.

Haven't seen an official announcement yet. Docs are up on Dreamina (ByteDance's creative platform). Curious if anyone has more details on the architecture.

1)Quality-making a good game requires extreme attention to detail all of which is non coding related. The animations on idle characters, how the background characters look, the sound design and clever story. 90% of gaming is art

2) backlash from players. I think this is an important factor but not the dominant factor.

I think dance is the missing piece of AI-generated content \u2014 just like how performance made K-pop a global phenomenon, and we believe AI dance will play the same role in the AI UGC era.

This is v0.1 \u2014 a fast, experimental playground. Dance quality is still improving (m4.1 in progress), and we're working on faster inference, and finger/facial motion generation. We're also preparing API integrations with platforms like Higgsfield.

I think our tech is quite validated through Epic MegaGrant but still very early in finding user validation. Would love honest feedback on the output quality and what you'd want to see next.

What\u2019s New & Upgraded\n1. Pro Intelligence at Flash Speed and price: NB2 delivers quality close to Pro while keeping generation times in line with the Flash tier, standard generations clock in at under two seconds, with pricing significantly lower than Nano Banana Pro.\n2. Precision Text Rendering: Inheriting major upgrades from the Pro version, NB2 renders crisp, accurate text for marketing assets, UI/UX wireframes, and product labels. It also supports seamless translation and localization of text already existing within an image.\n3. Large-Scale Subject Consistency: Maintain identity across up to 5 characters and 14 distinct objects within a single workflow. This is a massive leap compared to the original Nano Banana.\n4. Real-World Grounding via Search The model leverages Google Search live to accurately render specific logos, landmarks, and real-world products. It can even transform handwritten notes or rough sketches into data-driven charts and infographics.

Use Cases\n1. Film & Creative Visuals: Fantasy concept design for pre-production, emphasizing the photorealistic grounding of surreal elements and logical physics.\n2. Marketing & E-Commerce Advertising: Rapid generation of product posters featuring precise typography and realistic materials.\n3. Documentary Photography & High-Fidelity Character Creation: Cinematic character settings or humanistic documentary projects. Focuses on skin texture, micro-details (e.g., hair, iris reflections), and authentic emotional delivery, breaking away from the "plastic" look of traditional AI generation.\n4. Illustration Design & Native Text Rendering: Educational materials, vintage posters, or graphic design assets. The core pain point is accurate spelling and seamless integration of typography into specific artistic styles.

The last 20 minutes look noticeably better than the first 60.\nEdited just in iMovie, audio with ElevenLabs.\nI decided to release it as is rather than regenerate everything. Biggest problems were getting the actors to \u201cact\u201d, shot composition, character consistency, voice matching, and getting more than two characters to interact coherently in one frame. Happy to go into detail on any of it.","title":"Show HN: Deviant, a feature-length sci-fi thriller about AI, made with AI","updated_at":"2026-09-14T08:35:19Z","url":"https://deviantmovie.com/"},{"_highlightResult":{"author":{"matchLevel":"none","matchedWords":[],"value":"naxtsass"},"story_text":{"fullyHighlighted":false,"matchLevel":"full","matchedWords":["higgsfield"],"value":"Hi HN,

Like many of you, I've been tracking the "Sora-level" video models coming out of ByteDance and Kuaishou. While the tech is impressive, the accessibility often sucks\u2014many are locked behind mobile apps (like Higgsfield) or fragmented invite-only portals.

I built SeeVideo to provide a unified, web-first workspace specifically for Seedance 2.0 and Kling 3.0.

Why I built this:

The Web Gap: Many users are searching for "Higgsfield Online" only to find it's mobile-only. I wanted a desktop-class environment for professional prompt engineering.

Model Nuances: Seedance 2.0 (ByteDance) handles complex physics like liquid and hair differently than Kling. I\u2019ve included a "Prompt Transformer" to help adapt generic prompts into the specific "dialects" these models prefer.

Side-by-Side Benchmarking: It\u2019s hard to judge "cinematic quality" without a direct comparison. This tool lets you see how they stack up on the same prompt.

Technical Observations:\nFrom running ~1000 generations, Seedance 2.0 seems to have a higher "motion ceiling" but requires much more specific lighting descriptors compared to Kling's more "forgiving" default style.

I\u2019d love to get the community's feedback on the UI and hear about your experience with the temporal consistency of these latest Chinese diffusion models.
