Today the OpenAI API was very stable, I didn't have any timeout so here is a new demo of my latent web browser! There are a lot of fails, but it is easy to close the offending tab and click on another link to throw the dices again 🎲 (note: video accelerated for brevity)

Current project: a platform where all the videos are generated using open-source AI models 👨‍🔬 From a single text prompt it generates the story, snippets, waveforms, merges everything into a single mp4 then pushes it to a Hugging Face dataset Why? Well, because it's fun!😄

AI video models are truly fascinating in their ability to replay and mimic the real world! Given enough data (and more advanced models) we could probably simulate complex scenarios and emergent behavior.. I think I'm gonna experiment with more prompts around ants and insects 👀
