HOT RELEASE
Google researchers have developed VideoPoet, a new language model capable of creating videos from various inputs like text, images, videos, and audio.
VideoPoet can convert text to video, modify existing videos, and even generate audio from videos.
What VideoPoet can do:
Text to video
Image to video with text prompts
Video to audio
Alter an existing video, using text prompts
VideoPoet also can create a short film by compiling several short clips (watch the short film)
UPDATE
After the beta release of Midjourney v6, some users found that its model generates images that are extremely similar, or nearly identical, to existing copyrighted artworks.
A user prompted the model with the phrase "Joaquin Phoenix Joker movie, 2019, screenshot from a movie, movie scene." The output was an almost identical still from the 2019 film "Joker," starring Joaquin Phoenix.

The New York Times today sued OpenAI and Microsoft for copyright infringement, citing several examples when a chatbot gave users “near-verbatim excerpts” from its articles.
OpenAI is in talks to raise a new round of funding at a valuation of $100 billion or more, which would make it the second most valuable startup in the world after SpaceX.
TLDR: These are the top companies that may hit big in 2024: Anthropic, Cohere, AI21 Labs, Hugging Face, Aleph Alpha, Scale AI, and Tenstorrent.
