That's fun!

I'm seeing more and more of these (Levelsio, then a french dude doing it too). What AI model are you running? What's the delay between chat prompt and "airing"?

Video is expensive - I'm curious!

for a 1 min spot video , its around 12 seconds to be generated :) Minimax h3 Max , yes its very expensive BUT it's fun and i try to sell little spot via longer clip :)

Got it! Actually a fun idea - if you manage to get enough traction it could work :)

Out of curiosity; what provider are you using for MinimaxH3? Also did you pick it because the pricing was more interesting than Omni / Seedance / Kling?

This reminds me of the ads in Idiocracy. I really hope this isn’t the direction advertising is heading.

sorry to tell you but : i think the futur of advertisements will be 99% AI in few years, why you dont want that?

Because if the result is just more AI slop people will stop caring.
