I'm not underselling it. I'm reminding people who get swept up by headlines to actually use the products and be an objective judge of quality when it comes to these things. Because when you lose that objectivity, you start saying things like what you just said. Veo 3 level tech is basically Kling 2/Veo 2 fidelity with native sound generation, so was it that the last generation of these things were already decimating production houses? Be for real. With the tech they had 6 months ago, all they needed to do was add sound manually, which they could have pretty much also generated. A new layer of abstraction isn't "decimating" anything. I'd really take it easy from professing things like that. These things are great for what they are, but let's be actual objective consumers and not fall for these talking points of "oh industries are gonna change in x-months".

You are underselling it because you make it sound like all the model adds is some foley, when in fact it adds facial animations that are in line with the dialogue spoken. Go ahead and create a Kling render that I only need to add VO to, you can't because Kling doesn't do that. You need a Omnihuman level model (or veo3) for that and it makes all the difference.

Happy to agree to disagree, but imo this absolutely is a step change.

Dude. Have you been paying attention to even the first Veo or even the first few iterations of Kling? They've HAD facial expressions that follow the prompt pretty well. You're being fooled by your own senses now because now you can't think they've existed before speech and sound effects have been integrated into the output. They've been there. You just couldn't hear what they were saying. You're paying attention now to how the words they are speaking make sense because lipsync actually adds relevant context to the output. But people have been making similar outputs just with a different workflow prior to this.

I don't need to create anything for you. Go visit r/aivideo and go look at the Kling or even the Hailuo Minimax (admittedly worse in fidelity) attempts. Some of them have been made to even sing or do podcasts. Again. They've been there for at least 6-10 months ago, this happens to generate it as one output. It's not nothing, but this really exposes a lot of the people who aren't familiar with this space when they keep overestimating things they've probably seen a months ago. Somewhat accurate expressions? Passable lipsyncing? All there. Even with the weaker models like Runway and Hailuo.

Again. Use the products. You'll know. Hobbyists have been on it for quite sometime already. Also. I didn't say they were just adding foley, though I can argue the quality of the sound they're adding, that's not my point. My point is, is that everytime something like this comes out there's always people ready to speak on "what industries such thing can destroy right now" before using the thing. It's borderline deranged.
