This is my favorite: https://6ammc3n5zzf5ljnz.public.blob.vercel-storage.com/inf2...

FYI dang they kinda ripped off our product down to copying the UI (Hedra.com). Our model is about 12x faster and supports 4 minute long videos…

Fwiw, you’ve got one video on your homepage and everything else is locked behind a signup button.

I know that signup requirement is an article of faith amongst some startup types, but it’s not a surprise to me shareable examples lead to sharing.

We have a sign-up because we ensure users accept our terms of service and acceptable use policy before creating their first video, which affirms they understand how their data is used (legally required in most US states) and will not use our technology to cause harm.

I welcome competition, but they have made disingenuous claims about being first after having chatted with our team (in person), are using celebrity deepfakes for their advertising, and have 1-1 copied our UI down to the three panel mobile layout and autocrop button.

You've expressed this concern, and your comment has been upvoted. The brigade of newly registered users echoing these talking points on this topic is not necessary and undermines your point.

I understand your implication, however I’m not behind any brigading.

Does anybody know about the legality of using Eminem's "Gozilla" as promotional material[1] for this service? I thought you had to pay artists for a license before using their work in promotional material. [1] https://infinity.ai/videos/setA_video3.mp4

Parody is fair use.

I tried with the drake and drake saying some stuff and while its cool, its still lacking, like his teeth are disappearing partially :S

Agreed! The teeth can be problematic. The good news is we just need to train at higher resolution (right now we are at 320x320px), and that should resolve the teethe issue. So far, we have purposely trained on low resolution to make sure we get the gross expressions / movements right. The final stage of training with be using higher resolution training data. Fingers crossed.

Realistic teeth in lipsync videos based purely on data and without explicit priors would be tough.

Good luck :)
