- Minimax’s new Hailuo 02 AI video model has given rise to a viral trend of cats performing Olympic dives
- Video mixed with advanced physics-based animation with non-equality of the Internet
- Although Google is not the quality of Veo 3, Hailuo 2 is gaining popularity among users rapidly casual AI
While walking to the cat on the diving board, I could imagine calling the fire department or a large crowd to save it, causing a havoc, while a cat was just like a cat. Instead, the cat carried out an Olympic-caliber triple Somarasolt in the pool. If it was not for the impossible achievement and my awareness that it was an AI-borne video, I am checking to see if Friday was the situation with the American swimming team.
Instead, it is a highly viral video produced using the Haluo 02 model of Chinese AI video developer minimax. Millions of people watching cats’ divers may not be real, but it is real that AI video to dominance to elongity for the competition, with Google VO3 and Sora K, with Sora, with many others.
Minimax started Hailuo 02 before this summer, but the virality of the impure Olympic video suggests that it is still going to be a very popular tool to indicate images or text in the video. The model now makes only five to ten-second clips, but its motion customization, camera effects, and impressive imitations of real-world physics, such as fur or water spatting movement, makes it more complicated.
Haluo 02 testing on cats divers came when X user RB Keeper (possibly not their real name) tried They must have seen a signal tests On VO3. The idea spread from there to a version that saw millions of views in a few hours and appeared with several variations on Tikok, Redit and Instagram.
AI video fight
Hailuo 02 uses frame-by-frame physics simulation, meditation-mapped motion prompt, and multimodal input passing. In other words, if you type a strange idea, the model will do its best to see and behave as it will be in a real -world estimate.
In particular, Haluo 02 is allegedly much cheaper and faster than the VO3, although perhaps without a fairly high end glow. Nevertheless, it is more accessible, not limited to enterprise services and beta programs such as VO3.
Cat diving videos are the top of a very specific vein diagram of internet trends, accessible tools, and low-steke fun. You do not need to be a professional editor or supercomputer to try it. More upgrades are on the horizon. Minimax has underlined the plan to integrate synchronized audio, lighting and texture control, as well as long -term clips.
For Google VEO 3 and other major players, they have their own professional place for now. But if they want to widen their appeal to the public, they can see what minimax and small developers, what are doing with their V1 video models. Hailuo 02 is a kind of device that people, like cats, will get to dive.
