  1. 0:04Do you know anything about these?
  2. 0:07>> Yes, I spent over 100k generating
  3. 0:09videos.
  4. 0:10>> What?
  5. 0:13But this only says 10k. Where did you
  6. 0:15get the rest?
  7. 0:16>> From that nice Italian place across the
  8. 0:18street. I said you'd pay them back.
  9. 0:20>> You mean
  10. 0:22the mafia?
  11. 0:23>> Yes.
  12. 0:30>> I told you we couldn't trust this robot.
  13. 0:33Don't worry.
  14. 0:34>> [music]
  15. 0:34>> We just need to find Dan.
  16. 0:39>> Dan!
  17. 0:41>> Dan! Dan, where are you?
  18. 0:44>> Hey, hey, hi Bruiser.
  19. 0:46>> Hey, hello Tito.
  20. 0:52>> You want to run?
  21. 0:54>> No.
  22. 0:56>> I need to get BACK TO THE OFFICE.
  23. 1:08>> Are you being chased BY THE MAFIA OR
  24. 1:09WHAT?
  25. 1:10>> Don't say that, please.
  26. 1:23>> Okay, I think I'm safe. Anyways, I might
  27. 1:25as well show you the results.
  28. 1:27>> We'll be comparing six of the most
  29. 1:29popular AI video generators in an
  30. 1:31eight-round head-to-head battle where
  31. 1:33all of the videos have been generated
  32. 1:34using the same prompt and references.
  33. 1:37I'll be the one ranking this using a
  34. 1:39tier list and by the end of it, you know
  35. 1:41exactly which model is the best and
  36. 1:43[music] why. But first, let's go over
  37. 1:45contenders. Now, after judging some of
  38. 1:47the videos myself on OpenArt Arena and
  39. 1:49going through their leaderboard, I found
  40. 1:52these following AI video models. We've
  41. 1:54got One 3.0, Minimax A Stream Max, Flux
  42. 1:58Tree, Gemini Omni, Kling 4.0 Flash, and
  43. 2:01SeaDance 2.5. Now, you can use all of
  44. 2:04these models inside of OpenArt, and if
  45. 2:06you want to look up the leaderboard
  46. 2:07yourself, I will leave a link to it in
  47. 2:09the description down below. The rules
  48. 2:11are that every video has to be 10
  49. 2:13seconds long, generated in 16x9 aspect
  50. 2:15ratio, and preferably in 1080p
  51. 2:17resolution if they can do that. All
  52. 2:19videos will be made using the same
  53. 2:21prompt and the same references. And if a
  54. 2:23video cannot be generated for any type
  55. 2:25of reason, it will be automatically put
  56. 2:28into D tier. If a feature is
  57. 2:29unavailable, it will also be put into D
  58. 2:31tier. I will judging based on the prompt
  59. 2:33coherence, if the references were
  60. 2:35accurate, if the physics makes sense, if
  61. 2:37the character or the objects are
  62. 2:38consistent, camera movement, image
  63. 2:40quality, audio sync, style match the
  64. 2:43prompt, like all of those things. Okay,
  65. 2:44let's start with round number one. For
  66. 2:47this, we're going to test out prompt
  67. 2:48adherence with image references. This is
  68. 2:51the prompt that we're using. You can
  69. 2:53find all of the prompts that I've used
  70. 2:54for this in the description down below,
  71. 2:56so you can do this test yourself. The
  72. 2:58idea is that I'm visiting an antique
  73. 3:00shop, and I come out with a sword and a
  74. 3:02helmet from that shop. We've got three
  75. 3:04different image references. We're
  76. 3:06looking for a faint reflection in the
  77. 3:07window. We're looking for me wearing the
  78. 3:10helmet with the visor raised, and my
  79. 3:12mustache must be fully visible. I'm not
  80. 3:14growing this for no reason. Then I want
  81. 3:16to have consistency across all of these
  82. 3:18five different shots, and the helmet and
  83. 3:20the sword need to stay identical to the
  84. 3:22references. Okay, let's start. We're
  85. 3:24starting off with 1 3.0.
  86. 3:36I'm surprised, like this is good. This
  87. 3:38is really, really good. The consistency
  88. 3:39is there. The reflection is good. The
  89. 3:41object, like the helmet and the sword,
  90. 3:43is there. It is consistent. I found this
  91. 3:46shop a bit like too vague. What's
  92. 3:50happening here? Like this this looks
  93. 3:51weird. This looks strange. But I would
  94. 3:53definitely put this in A tier. This is
  95. 3:55really good. Then we have MiniMax.
  96. 4:05>> [laughter]
  97. 4:07>> Uh, it is not great. It's not the best.
  98. 4:10It feels a bit plasticky. We have a
  99. 4:12weird sword there. All of the sudden we
  100. 4:14have an actual sword. Although it looks
  101. 4:16cool, but I would say this is meh slash
  102. 4:18decent. Maybe I put it in meh. Okay, now
  103. 4:21we have a flux.
  104. 4:34What was that at the end? Okay, let's go
  105. 4:36over this. I love how we even have the
  106. 4:38reflection of the cameraman. I think
  107. 4:40this looks good. Like this to me looks
  108. 4:42good. The movement looks good. Me having
  109. 4:44the helmet on like an idiot. I love
  110. 4:47that. I mean the mustache is there.
  111. 4:48Doesn't quite look like me.
  112. 4:51But I would prefer this over Minimax,
  113. 4:53definitely. Okay, now we have Gemini
  114. 4:55Omni 1.5 Unfortunately, Google doesn't
  115. 4:58have any new model so far.
  116. 5:07>> [laughter]
  117. 5:10>> I'm not happy with this. Like we're two
  118. 5:12doors almost the same. Then I walk out
  119. 5:15with the helmet and the sword, but then
  120. 5:17you still have the helmet and the sword
  121. 5:18there. I'm tempted to put this in refund
  122. 5:20my credits. Like I'll give it the
  123. 5:22benefit of the doubt and putting it in
  124. 5:24meh. Then we have Kling 4.0 flash. This
  125. 5:27is not the full 4.0 model yet. This is
  126. 5:29the flash model. But let's see what it
  127. 5:31can do.
  128. 5:42I mean the quality is quite good. I like
  129. 5:44the quality here of me. Let me see, does
  130. 5:45this stay consistent? Just the sword is
  131. 5:47gone. It's good, decent. Like I prefer
  132. 5:50one. Okay, lastly we got C dance 2.5.
  133. 6:03>> I mean, this is good. Let me just watch
  134. 6:04one more time. Ah, this is the best.
  135. 6:06Like this this there's nothing that's
  136. 6:08like that even the door makes sense the
  137. 6:10way it opens. Like it's it's these small
  138. 6:13things that you notice that makes
  139. 6:16something look AI. So, I'm going to put
  140. 6:18this in absolute cinema. I will tell you
  141. 6:20why and what I mean by that. Like the
  142. 6:21small things. Like for example, this
  143. 6:23thing from Kling. To me,
  144. 6:25>> [sighs and gasps]
  145. 6:26>> the way that door opens doesn't make
  146. 6:28sense. Like to me, the door handle
  147. 6:30should be on the other side. And
  148. 6:31SeaDANCE got those physics correct. Like
  149. 6:34this this makes more sense. So, there we
  150. 6:36have it. Round number one completed. So
  151. 6:39far, SeaDANCE 2.5 takes the cake. Okay,
  152. 6:42round number two. We're going to do a
  153. 6:44UGC type video because so many people
  154. 6:46are generating that. The goal is to make
  155. 6:48a UGC selfie type of video of a young
  156. 6:51woman that has been gifted an oversized
  157. 6:53sky blue wool sweater. It is filmed on
  158. 6:55an iPhone. It's 10 seconds long. We're
  159. 6:57using two image references here. And on
  160. 7:00the text of the sweater, it says, "I
  161. 7:02love AI." I've added in a bit of
  162. 7:04dialogue. So, we have her saying, "Okay,
  163. 7:06look what I just got as a gift. I'm
  164. 7:08obsessed. It's so soft. Look at the
  165. 7:10knit. It's so cozy. And the best part, I
  166. 7:12love AI." when she's like sharing how
  167. 7:14that looks. Cool. Let's see what our
  168. 7:16contenders can do with this prompt. Just
  169. 7:18a side note, UGC videos usually are 9 by
  170. 7:2016, but because we're on YouTube, I made
  171. 7:23this 16 by 9.
  172. 7:24>> Okay, look what I just got as a gift.
  173. 7:27I'm obsessed. It's so soft. Look at the
  174. 7:29knit. It's so cozy. And the best part,
  175. 7:33I love AI.
  176. 7:34>> Damn, that's good. That that camera
  177. 7:36focus there. This one. This is so good.
  178. 7:39I'm impressed. The physics are good. The
  179. 7:42voice sounds good. The camera movement
  180. 7:44is quite good. Maybe at the end this
  181. 7:46zoom in could be edited. I might just
  182. 7:48have to do it. Absolute cinema. Then we
  183. 7:50have Mini Max H3.
  184. 7:52>> Okay, look what I just got as a gift.
  185. 7:54I'm obsessed. It's so soft. Look at the
  186. 7:57knit. It's so cozy. And the best part,
  187. 8:01I love AI.
  188. 8:02>> Look, I I was about to say give me my
  189. 8:04credits back, but like it it did
  190. 8:06everything. It's just the look and feel
  191. 8:08of it feels so plastic. Like if if you
  192. 8:11use this for an ad, it wouldn't be good.
  193. 8:13I'm going to put it in meh. Sound like a
  194. 8:14sheep. Okay, Flux Tree. Oh, by the way,
  195. 8:17if you have your character sheets and
  196. 8:18you put them in Flux Tree, it is always
  197. 8:20like this that it's going to put this as
  198. 8:23one frame of it. It's super annoying.
  199. 8:26>> Okay, look what I just got as a gift.
  200. 8:28I'm obsessed. It's so soft. Look at the
  201. 8:31knit. It's so cozy. And the best part? I
  202. 8:34love AI.
  203. 8:35>> The beginning felt really strong, felt
  204. 8:36really good, but the the longer I look
  205. 8:38at it, the weirder it gets. Let me just
  206. 8:40watch this one more time with you. Wait,
  207. 8:42pause right there. Wait, wait. What in
  208. 8:43the Harry Potter thing is going on here?
  209. 8:46How the hell is this thing like floating
  210. 8:47there? Flux, man, what are you doing?
  211. 8:49Who's holding this up? I love the
  212. 8:50excitement. I love the different poses,
  213. 8:53angles, and and that. Like this camera
  214. 8:55focus pulls good. Here it feels weird
  215. 8:57with her movement of her neck. Too far.
  216. 9:00Nah. Refund me. Let's go Gemini.
  217. 9:03>> Okay, look what I just got as a gift.
  218. 9:05I'm obsessed. It's so soft. Look at the
  219. 9:07knit. It's so cozy. And the best part?
  220. 9:11I love AI.
  221. 9:13>> I mean, Flux did the same. I I didn't
  222. 9:15point it out, but when you put in UGC
  223. 9:17filmed on iPhone, then it's putting an
  224. 9:19iPhone in the screen. Like that's super
  225. 9:21annoying. But what's going on here with
  226. 9:22the former thing? We have 9 by 16, then
  227. 9:25we have 16 by 9, then we go back to 9 by
  228. 9:2716. To be honest, like the video is
  229. 9:29good. Where's her head, by the way? I'm
  230. 9:31going to put this in Ah, I mean, like
  231. 9:33this to me like this is unusable because
  232. 9:35I would have to regenerate this. Like I
  233. 9:37wouldn't use this. So, I'm going to put
  234. 9:38this in refund my credits, please. Next
  235. 9:40up, Cling.
  236. 9:41>> Okay, look what I just got as a gift.
  237. 9:43I'm obsessed. It's so soft. Look at the
  238. 9:45knit. It's so cozy. And the best part?
  239. 9:50I love AI.
  240. 9:51>> It works. It It just feels like a tiny
  241. 9:54bit AI. Like it it doesn't feel
  242. 9:56completely organic, but I must say the
  243. 9:58accuracy on on her is really good. Let
  244. 10:01me just watch it one more time. Where's
  245. 10:03her head, by the way? This focus pulls
  246. 10:04really good. Physics here good. Just
  247. 10:07feels like it needs a a bit more grain
  248. 10:09to it to make this more believable, but
  249. 10:11I I would say this is decent. Okay, next
  250. 10:13up we got Seedance.
  251. 10:16>> Okay, look what I just got as a gift.
  252. 10:17I'm obsessed. It's so soft. Look at the
  253. 10:20knit. It's so cozy.
  254. 10:23And the best part? I love AI.
  255. 10:25>> I'm a bit confused. It It looks good,
  256. 10:27but is this our character? It didn't get
  257. 10:29the belt right or whatever you might
  258. 10:32call this. The jeans look like that that
  259. 10:34make the jeans look slightly different,
  260. 10:36too. Don't get why it's like the fish
  261. 10:37islands. I might put this in in decent,
  262. 10:40too. It's not overly excited about this
  263. 10:43one. One was definitely the best on this
  264. 10:45one. Let's go over to the next round,
  265. 10:47which is lip sync. This time I have
  266. 10:50these two references of me and my boy
  267. 10:53Bruiser. We are having an intense
  268. 10:55standoff. I've also added in an audio
  269. 10:57file with the dialogue. Most of these
  270. 11:00models could have an audio input, except
  271. 11:03for Gemini only. But, we're still going
  272. 11:05to review it because I still managed to
  273. 11:07make the video, but dialogue will be
  274. 11:09different here. Okay, let's start with
  275. 11:11One 3.0.
  276. 11:12>> You know exactly who I am. Say my name.
  277. 11:15>> The AI guy who says this changes
  278. 11:18everything every week?
  279. 11:20>> You're goddamn right.
  280. 11:22>> I mean, this is really good. Like, this
  281. 11:23is quite good. I I just don't like that
  282. 11:25the hand gestures of Bruiser. Like, it
  283. 11:28should have been like like this. Also, I
  284. 11:30feel like the voice doesn't really feel
  285. 11:31baked in there. It feels like put on top
  286. 11:33of it. I'm going to put this in really
  287. 11:35good because I think that's it. Now,
  288. 11:37let's go with Minimax.
  289. 11:39>> Do you know who I am?
  290. 11:41Say my name.
  291. 11:42>> The AI guy who says this changes
  292. 11:45everything every week?
  293. 11:47>> You're goddamn right.
  294. 11:49>> Wait, what what am I saying in the
  295. 11:50beginning here? You knew who you I'm I'm
  296. 11:52I'm like stumbling. Like, I mean, I know
  297. 11:54I'm not natively English, but like I
  298. 11:56don't sound like that, I hope. I would
  299. 11:58regenerate this. Like, I I put this in
  300. 12:00meh. Now, let's go with Flux. For Flux
  301. 12:03and Gemini, it didn't work with the
  302. 12:05audio reference. So, Flux doesn't have
  303. 12:07native audio.
  304. 12:08>> You know exactly who I am. Say my name.
  305. 12:13>> The AI guy who says, "This changes
  306. 12:15everything every week."
  307. 12:17>> You're goddamn right.
  308. 12:18>> This just bad. Like it also didn't get
  309. 12:20my audio. Going to re-ask for a refund
  310. 12:22on this. No, Gemini, keep in mind, not
  311. 12:24my own audio.
  312. 12:26>> You know exactly who I am. Say my name.
  313. 12:29>> The AI guy who says, "This changes
  314. 12:32everything every week."
  315. 12:34>> You're goddamn right.
  316. 12:36>> It took the length from the character
  317. 12:37sheet and then baked it into the frame.
  318. 12:39Sorry, Google. Refund my credits,
  319. 12:41please. Then we have Kling.
  320. 12:43>> You know exactly who I am.
  321. 12:46Say my name.
  322. 12:48>> The AI guy who says, "This changes
  323. 12:51everything every week."
  324. 12:53>> You're god
  325. 12:53>> What the hell is happening with Kling
  326. 12:544.0 flash? Is this the reason why
  327. 12:57they're gatekeeping this model yet? What
  328. 12:59the hell is this? Let me ask for a
  329. 13:01refund there. Like where where the hell
  330. 13:02is the lip sync? It's not just your
  331. 13:04audio. Like I'm hearing this like a live
  332. 13:06trout speaker. Like it's We cannot use
  333. 13:08that. Lastly, we have Seedance.
  334. 13:10>> You know exactly who I am. Say my name.
  335. 13:13>> The AI guy who says, "This changes
  336. 13:16everything every week."
  337. 13:18>> You're goddamn right.
  338. 13:20>> Okay, that's good. That that is really
  339. 13:22really good. Like this is the model that
  340. 13:24I use in all my intros. Like I'm not
  341. 13:26trying to be biased here, but come on.
  342. 13:28Like nothing beats this. The only thing
  343. 13:29I would say you might want to regenerate
  344. 13:31is the the this one with Bruiser. But
  345. 13:34the audio feels insanely well. Like the
  346. 13:36audio feels really good. It feels better
  347. 13:38than once. So, I'm going to put this in
  348. 13:40absolute cinema. Moving on to round
  349. 13:42number four. We're going to do text to
  350. 13:44video here. No references, just a
  351. 13:46prompt. This will be the prompt that we
  352. 13:48will be using. What I put in there is
  353. 13:51raw found footage. It's a film video,
  354. 13:53Jackass energy. Like that's super
  355. 13:55important here. The video is about a
  356. 13:56tough-looking rapper that's building a
  357. 13:58house of cards in a speeding minivan. It
  358. 14:00hits a speed bump and the cards collapse
  359. 14:03and he's devastated. Before I play it, a
  360. 14:05few details that I added in there. He
  361. 14:07should have a tattoo on his forehead
  362. 14:09that reads exactly, "I love House of
  363. 14:11Cards." He should have heavy gold and
  364. 14:14diamond chain with a large AI pendant.
  365. 14:16The minivan needs to be speeding. We see
  366. 14:18trees, fences, and parked cars like
  367. 14:20striking past the windows, and then
  368. 14:22everything stays upright until we have
  369. 14:25the bump. And now we're just going to
  370. 14:26look for natural shot. Let's start with
  371. 14:29one 3.0.
  372. 14:37>> [laughter]
  373. 14:40>> Yeah, this ain't it. This is not good.
  374. 14:42My love house of cards, that doesn't
  375. 14:44make sense. The bump also like it feels
  376. 14:46the response is too slow where it gets
  377. 14:48to like this like the the the editing is
  378. 14:50too slow. This is a meh for me. Then we
  379. 14:53have Minimax.
  380. 14:59>> [laughter]
  381. 15:04>> I mean it looked good like it looked
  382. 15:06decent up until the cars actually like
  383. 15:09stopping. Like why the hell are we
  384. 15:10stopping car? Like what's going on? If I
  385. 15:13were to regenerate just that scene, it
  386. 15:15would be savable because I do like the
  387. 15:17rest of it, but it's still not that
  388. 15:19great. I might have to regenerate this
  389. 15:21so I want a refund. Then we have flux
  390. 15:243.0.
  391. 15:32>> [laughter]
  392. 15:34>> Why does it sound like the cars are
  393. 15:36exploding?
  394. 15:38I mean it's good house of cards. The the
  395. 15:40physics of the car going over the speed
  396. 15:42bump don't make that much sense. I
  397. 15:44honestly expected better of flux here.
  398. 15:47I'm going to put this in in refunds to
  399. 15:49be honest. Then we have Gemini.
  400. 15:57>> [laughter]
  401. 16:01>> What's going on with like all of the
  402. 16:03recording? Like iPhone here, iPhone
  403. 16:06here. The physics are are better though.
  404. 16:09I love house of cards.
  405. 16:11This is still like maybe this test was
  406. 16:13too hard like still for this test. Like
  407. 16:15I need a refund like I won't be happy
  408. 16:17with this. Now, Kling.
  409. 16:25>> [laughter]
  410. 16:28>> Wow. Technically, it's a stack of cards,
  411. 16:30house of cards. That physique looked
  412. 16:32good though. I don't like the way it's
  413. 16:34printed on his forehead, the aisle of
  414. 16:36cards, but I might put this in
  415. 16:38Leslie Sidens.
  416. 16:49Feels like that's the only one that can
  417. 16:51do this. This feels really good. Still
  418. 16:54not too happy with this. That's why I
  419. 16:56often use like image to video reference
  420. 16:58to video because as you see like like
  421. 17:00what's going on with these gangsters,
  422. 17:02like they don't look great. Let's
  423. 17:04continue straight to the next test. For
  424. 17:05this test, we're going to do video to
  425. 17:07video. What we're going to do is we're
  426. 17:09going to take this video that we have
  427. 17:11right here, and we're going to change it
  428. 17:12to me in pink boxing gear, and Bruiser
  429. 17:15as the punching bag. I will also be
  430. 17:17changing the gym into a garage, and I
  431. 17:20want the punches and the movements to
  432. 17:22stay the same because I think the
  433. 17:24reference video is quite good. We're
  434. 17:26going to start with 1 3.0.
  435. 17:35>> [snorts]
  436. 17:37>> It's quite good. Feels tiny bit
  437. 17:39plasticky, but it's it's decent, I would
  438. 17:41say. Then we have MiniMax H3.
  439. 17:54I mean, the garage looks better than 1
  440. 17:55on was given that, but that the sound,
  441. 17:57like I hear the sound, like didn't
  442. 17:59match. Like there's one punch after that
  443. 18:01that I didn't throw, but you still hear
  444. 18:03the sound. It's okay. It's
  445. 18:05going to give it to decent as as like at
  446. 18:08least that location all right. Still the
  447. 18:10style, I it's okay-ish. Then we have
  448. 18:13Gemini, and Gemini only flash used to be
  449. 18:16the best for this.
  450. 18:27>> What the hell is this dude? Like why do
  451. 18:28we have the original dude? Sorry Google,
  452. 18:30I want a refund. Then Flux couldn't
  453. 18:32generate this because it doesn't do
  454. 18:34video-to-video, so it's automatically in
  455. 18:36D tier. Then we have Kling.
  456. 18:48Wait, what the hell is that music? Upon
  457. 18:50seeing 1 again, I'm actually going to
  458. 18:52put 1 in really good. Kling, going to
  459. 18:54put you in decent. SeaDance, let's see.
  460. 19:06I mean it did the movement really well.
  461. 19:08I just don't know what's going on with
  462. 19:10my face. Like it it struggled to keep
  463. 19:12the side angle of my face. Might also
  464. 19:14have to do with the reference that I
  465. 19:15don't have a side reference of what my
  466. 19:17face looks like. But the movement I
  467. 19:19think it is the best one. Let me see if
  468. 19:20I want to make some changes to these
  469. 19:22ones. From checking all of them again,
  470. 19:24I'm going to keep it like this. I think
  471. 19:26both SeaDance and 1 are like our similar
  472. 19:28category. Both MiniMax and Kling are
  473. 19:30decent and and Gemini and Flux need a
  474. 19:33refund. Let's move on to the next round.
  475. 19:35Round number six. Here we're going to
  476. 19:37test which one is best for making
  477. 19:39cinematic or realistic looking videos.
  478. 19:41We're going to try and generate a
  479. 19:42realistic looking scene with references
  480. 19:45in it. We will have a woman that is
  481. 19:46smelling a puppy and then she's running
  482. 19:49through a sunlit field of flowers in
  483. 19:51slow motion. We have close-ups, tracking
  484. 19:53shots, and a wide ending. There's no
  485. 19:55dialogue, so let's take a look. We're
  486. 19:57starting off with 1 3.0.
  487. 20:09It's okay, but it's like slow motion.
  488. 20:11This part is good, but then here's where
  489. 20:13to me it gets strange. Going to put this
  490. 20:15in decent. Then we have MiniMax.
  491. 20:27>> The slow motion there was really good.
  492. 20:29Still has a bit of a plastic feel to it,
  493. 20:31but I like this part. I like this. This
  494. 20:33shot looks really cool. That one is bad
  495. 20:36like that shot after. Would be usable. I
  496. 20:38wouldn't put this lower than one. Like
  497. 20:40maybe maybe even higher, but let's see
  498. 20:42the rest first. Then we have Flux. I
  499. 20:44hate how Flux hasn't fixed this yet.
  500. 20:56Didn't start off that strong. Wait, let
  501. 20:57me watch this again. That's good. That's
  502. 20:59good. The running is is interesting way
  503. 21:03to run. That's a good shot. It's an
  504. 21:05interesting angle. This is a tough one.
  505. 21:07This is a really really tough one. Like
  506. 21:09I would also say this is decent. Now
  507. 21:11let's go over to Gemini.
  508. 21:22You know what it is with with Google? I
  509. 21:24feel like they have the potential to
  510. 21:26make amazing videos. They just don't
  511. 21:28want to. They I feel like they might
  512. 21:31have really really good stuff. Like like
  513. 21:33logic to their video. Like it it all
  514. 21:35makes sense that they understand like
  515. 21:37what looks good. It's just that they
  516. 21:38choose not to cuz it will be used for I
  517. 21:41don't know something wrong. In terms of
  518. 21:42like the video, like this opening shot
  519. 21:45is good. This shot is good I guess. It
  520. 21:46feels a tiny bit AI-ish. It's between
  521. 21:49meh and decent for me. Then let's go
  522. 21:52with Kling.
  523. 22:03Where else she going? Kling 4.0 flash is
  524. 22:05not the vibe yet. I don't know like I
  525. 22:07don't know if I got scammed or what the
  526. 22:09hell is going on with Kling 4.0. Like
  527. 22:12maybe 3.0 is even better. Like maybe
  528. 22:13it's because it's flash. I don't know
  529. 22:15what this is. This is refund. We're
  530. 22:18going to end it off with C Dance.
  531. 22:29>> This would be the strongest in my
  532. 22:31opinion. The only thing, if I have to be
  533. 22:33like an annoying dude, which I'm a
  534. 22:35judge, so I can be that. It's like the
  535. 22:37consistency in the field of flowers.
  536. 22:40Like when it's going with the hands
  537. 22:42through the flowers, we only see this
  538. 22:44basic like white flower, but not the
  539. 22:45other type of flowers. Like where are
  540. 22:47the Where's the rest? Like here we have
  541. 22:48all the others. That would like maybe
  542. 22:51break it, but in terms of physics,
  543. 22:53cinematic style, she has five fingers,
  544. 22:55just checking. Yeah, this one is really
  545. 22:57good. Still not perfect.
  546. 22:58>> We'll be going over test number seven,
  547. 23:00which is making an animation. I'm not
  548. 23:03using any references here, but within
  549. 23:05the prompt, I basically want to have a
  550. 23:07black cat with green eyes and a small
  551. 23:10yellow duck. And the duck is sitting on
  552. 23:12a pink inflatable flamingo in the pool.
  553. 23:15It should be one continuous take, so
  554. 23:17let's take a look.
  555. 23:27>> It is quite good. Just the the just the
  556. 23:30physics of of when the cat puts his nail
  557. 23:33in the flamingo, like it's looks like
  558. 23:35it's stuck in there. Like the the style
  559. 23:37looks really good. I really love the
  560. 23:39animation style. It's just this physics
  561. 23:41here. It's a bit strange. This one is
  562. 23:43good. It's between really good and
  563. 23:45decent. Like yeah, maybe I'll put it in
  564. 23:47these for now. Let's see what the rest
  565. 23:48has and then based on that we will
  566. 23:50compare it.
  567. 24:01It looked really impressive to start
  568. 24:03with. Like up until here. Like this is
  569. 24:05really really good. Like up until here,
  570. 24:07this is really good. And then this, but
  571. 24:10then what happened at that splash? Still
  572. 24:12quite like it. Undecided between decent
  573. 24:14and really good. Next up, Flux.
  574. 24:26Physics were quite good there. Like in
  575. 24:28terms of how it deflates. Like this is
  576. 24:30quite good. The way it falls into the
  577. 24:33water is is better than Mini Max and
  578. 24:36Mona, I would say. It's just this part
  579. 24:38where the duck starts flying and then
  580. 24:41puts his hand on the head of the cat. I
  581. 24:43might have to do some readjusting. I'm
  582. 24:45going to put it in decent for now. Let's
  583. 24:47go Gemini.
  584. 24:54>> [screaming]
  585. 24:58>> Gemini is just taking the piss again.
  586. 25:00Like the style is really good. The
  587. 25:01physics in the beginning look really
  588. 25:03good, but then I said like blowing like
  589. 25:05on the duck and then how it's going into
  590. 25:08the water. Ah, Gemini, man. Meh. Let's
  591. 25:11go with Kling.
  592. 25:22Kling this is quite good. This in terms
  593. 25:23of physics is quite good. I I might not
  594. 25:26like the animation style that much, but
  595. 25:28audio is also really strange, but
  596. 25:29physics here you guys probably will give
  597. 25:31me hate for this, but this is not like I
  598. 25:34think this is better than some of the
  599. 25:35other ones, like more usable in the
  600. 25:37case. See dance.
  601. 25:48Quite like this. Feels like all of them
  602. 25:50struggle to get the water right. I mean,
  603. 25:52this would be usable. Is it absolute
  604. 25:54cinema? Not sure. Is it really good?
  605. 25:57Yes, yes, it would be, yeah. Okay, put
  606. 25:59my second opinion. I'm actually going to
  607. 26:00put Gemini in as a refund and Flux in
  608. 26:03meh. All right, let's go to the next
  609. 26:05one. This will be our last test. For
  610. 26:07this one, we're going to do motion
  611. 26:09graphics. I will do a text-to-video
  612. 26:11typography type animation with bold text
  613. 26:15and movement and like five different
  614. 26:17layouts. I've described it in a detailed
  615. 26:20prompt. You can see my entire prompt.
  616. 26:22Basically, I'm going to animate the
  617. 26:24following text. We have five short
  618. 26:26phrases which will be look closer, think
  619. 26:28bigger, make a difference, more ideas,
  620. 26:30and create without limits. All text
  621. 26:33needs to be large and bold. We have one
  622. 26:35continuous virtual camera journey with
  623. 26:37no hard cuts. We have one small
  624. 26:39illustrated eye, a flat white almond,
  625. 26:42and a solid black dot that is appearing
  626. 26:44in the middle of the final O. First O
  627. 26:46stays an ordinary letter. We won't have
  628. 26:49no speech or narration. Let's take a
  629. 26:51look how good this is. We'll start off
  630. 26:53with one 3.0.
  631. 27:05Quite good upon like first impression,
  632. 27:07but let's watch it again because I think
  633. 27:09I spotted like a small error. Now, for
  634. 27:11make a difference, it feels like it
  635. 27:14tries and thinks that it needs to make
  636. 27:15it bigger, but the idea was that it's
  637. 27:17like one hand pulls it into a different
  638. 27:19direction. Like each pulls it in a
  639. 27:21different direction. Would be useful.
  640. 27:23Like it this would be decent. Next, we
  641. 27:26go with Minimax.
  642. 27:30>> [music]
  643. 27:37>> That's sick. This is really, really
  644. 27:39good. Like this is There's no errors in
  645. 27:41this. This is what I think people don't
  646. 27:43know AI's capable of doing. Like you can
  647. 27:45make these type of motion graphics.
  648. 27:47Absolute cinema. Next, Flux.
  649. 27:59This is good. This is really good. It's
  650. 28:01not that special, but it's I would put
  651. 28:03it in between really good and decent.
  652. 28:05Let's go Gemini.
  653. 28:11>> [music]
  654. 28:15>> It's really good. I'm impressed. Now, we
  655. 28:17go with Kling.
  656. 28:28What is the audio? Like like my brain
  657. 28:30hurts from listening to this. What's
  658. 28:32going on here? Like why is this What is
  659. 28:35What is What is it writing here? I'm
  660. 28:36going to put this straight into meh.
  661. 28:38Dance C Dance?
  662. 28:49It looks cool, but it is not that great,
  663. 28:52I would say. Maybe I'll put this in
  664. 28:53decent. Also, I don't think it has done
  665. 28:56this right. Think closer, like that was
  666. 28:58not the text. Was Think Bigger. Look
  667. 29:00Closer, Think Bigger. Make it Oh, now it
  668. 29:02goes Think Bigger. Make a Difference,
  669. 29:04More Ideas, Create Without Limits, yeah.
  670. 29:07Decent, I would say, yeah. All right, so
  671. 29:09those were the eight different rounds of
  672. 29:12tests that we're doing. Let's go over to
  673. 29:14the final standings. Based upon the
  674. 29:16ranking system that we applied, we got
  675. 29:18on the last place Gemini. Gemini
  676. 29:22outdated, we need a new model, man.
  677. 29:23Then, place number five, we got Flux
  678. 29:26Tree. It's done a little bit better than
  679. 29:28Gemini. It has some use cases, I would
  680. 29:30say. Better Okay, yeah, it's not great.
  681. 29:32Then, place number four, which surprises
  682. 29:34me, is Kling 4 Flash. I'm hoping the
  683. 29:38real version of Kling is actually better
  684. 29:39than this, because the Flash version
  685. 29:41This ain't it. Like, I don't know if
  686. 29:43this is not optimized for prompting, if
  687. 29:45if I'm doing anything wrong, but yeah,
  688. 29:47this is This is unfortunate. Then,
  689. 29:49number three, we have Minimax. Quite
  690. 29:52good. It did quite decent, like overall.
  691. 29:54It didn't do the worst, like it did It
  692. 29:56was like an average decent type of tool.
  693. 29:59Really good at motion graphics, though.
  694. 30:01Then, place number two, can I get a drum
  695. 30:03roll?
  696. 30:041 3 This one really surprised me. Like,
  697. 30:071 is actually quite good, especially for
  698. 30:10UGC type videos, it was doing really
  699. 30:11well. And for some of the other tests,
  700. 30:13it also came into like the A and B tier.
  701. 30:16Then, number one, which is only by four
  702. 30:19points, is C Dance 2.5. I did expect C
  703. 30:22Dance 2.5 to win. I did think the the
  704. 30:25difference would be bigger, but this
  705. 30:27goes to tell that for some type of
  706. 30:29generation that you do, you might
  707. 30:30actually want to experiment with using
  708. 30:32different models. Interestingly, if I
  709. 30:34compare this to OpenArt Arena, we also
  710. 30:36can see that Cinians 2.5 came out on
  711. 30:38top. Then second came one. I didn't
  712. 30:40include Cinians 2.0 into this test, but
