Show HN: I built a YouTube for generative videos in 50 prompts

https://gallery.samsar.one/

So I decided yesterday to do a full rewrite of the media gallery, turning it into a generative media catalog with full-suite social interactions, search, and personalized recommendations built on top of the samsar-js library. It took around 50 prompts in 5 sessions to get this done across the client and API, built with Codex GPT-5.6 Sol, Luna, and then Sol again (rate limit reset, thx Mr....

Open agent harness for creating text- and image-list-to-video generations up to 3 minutes long in a single shot. Runs in a sandboxed enterprise environment, enable only the settings and providers you need. Model providers (and models) are fully composable for each agent run. Comes bundled with Studio for optional post-processing, an API surface for custom integration and external distribution, and additional high-level generative endpoints for enterprise use cases.

Create high fidelity prompt to video with accurate prompt to video in 1-shot up-to 3 mins long. We combined with 3 video models to demo 1-shot results. Ultra high text accuracy and instruction adherence even for complex scientific topics etc.

A top-down generative workflow that can be used to create full-feature films starting from a single text prompt.

For ref, this was the previous post 3 mo ago presenting the alpha, in which I recieved a ton of valuable feedback. Previous HN discussion - https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=40973541

Show HN: Samsar One Version One is now live

https://app.samsar.one/

Hi all, 6 months ago I started building out an app which combines all the SoTA gen-ai models out there into one platform which anyone could use to create 2-4 min long videos starting from scratch, starting from an idea. I received a ton of feedback from HN community & others along the way. Today excited to announce version one of app.samsar.one, a platform which allows anyone to easily and...

Create striking one-shot text to story-videos/renditions of scientific papers etc. in any language and using samsar.one quick editor. I walk through the basics in this blog post.
ty for reporting this..should be fixed now.
Also the client is fully open-source, so you can check out the code here- https://github.com/pRoy24/samsar
thanks, that is great advice... i actually know very very little about video-editing. so demo videos kinda suck.. but i am also learning on the go, so demoes getting better every day and yes would love to collaborate with professional video editors...idk how though.
Hi, thanks for trying it out.

Currently the app is using - Dall-e 3 for generation, - Dalle-2 for edits, - OpenAI TTS for speech, - Suno for Music, - Segment-anything for object-detection.

More models will be added soon for each category, as well as a video generation model...(waiting on sora api to drop :) )

Re:Cryptocurrency Now Fully Legal in South Korea on Thursday March 05, 2020 @08:07AM (#22493171)
Also worth noting is that South Korea is considered to be a country with a serious gambling problem https://www.koreatimes.co.kr/www/nation/2019/11/119_255191.h... This is partly due to the fact that upward mobility in South Korea is notoriously hard without the right connections and also the reason why the country went full YOLO on ICOs in 2017.

Still even with the current ruling only spot exchanges are legal and derivates are still not allowed which means koreans exchanges are still not allowed to offer shitcoin futures with 125x leverage.

Re:India lifts ban on cryptocurrency trading on Wednesday March 04, 2020 @04:12AM (#22482244)
Successive Indian governments fail to realize that protectionism and capital control in reality have the exact opposite effect of what they intend. (after-effect of British raj once bitten twice shy)

They tried to stop capital flight but instead people just started doing Peer to peer FIAT transfers (WazirX owned by Chinese Binance) and trading via offshore LLCs.

India needs to stop being a nanny state... In fact in a truly free market Indians will often outperform global peers.

Being able to accept payments in crypto is a blessing for Indian firms looking to corner the global blockchain services and consulting market.

I think what is perceived by a community as right or wrong changes as the composition of the community changes...I mean Trump doesn't self-censor because he reflects the values of his broader base and his base eats up whatever he says....RMS' hugs and kisses, free love, anything goes attitude might have been ok during the hippie era of the 70s and 80s during the formative years of his career but does not reflect the values and sensibilities of today's broader development community....which means he needed to adapt or step down. -- The Dark knight quote - "You either die a hero or live long enough to see yourself become a villain" seems apt in this scenario.
I think all engineers with VAX experience are extinct ...or retired.

Unrelated but in their Bangalore office, they had sleeping bunks and showers in office premises and managers were routinely setting impossible deadlines and employees encouraged to work all day and night and sleep/shower in office if needed.
Yes a prion disease that is caused by forced cannibalism in animals. I understand, viruses evolve over time whereas prions are mutations of proteins...but my point is people are often directly or indirectly related to the cause and then they slaughter animals by thousands or even millions as in this case to cover their cause. PS: Not a very scientific argument but my general feeling. No need for the downvotes.
I wouldn't be surprised if the virus was human induced....similar to how the mad cow disease was caused by people feeding cattle a mix of cattle bones and meat.

I hope future generations look at our monstrosities and squirm in horror at how cruel and barbaric their ancestors were.

Re:Show HN: Switch from Medium to your own blog on Friday May 31, 2019 @10:30AM (#20061214)
Aaah this reminds me of noob me who thought I could just build a blogging platform of my own. Here are some non-trivial features that Medium provides to writers which we just don't notice. 1- Distribution channel No one is gonna remember the name/url of your blog, Medium allows discovery. 1- Autosave draft Unless you plan to write your post in one go, in one sitting with an extremely reliable internet connection, you are gonna need this. 3- Social plugin integration- Sure start writing oAuth integrations for each of the hundreds of social plugins out there. .....
aah I always knew Sarah Palin was famous for something...didn't know until now she is from Alaska.
In a worldview where communities, orgs, products, countries, states, provinces etc. all have their own tokens, there will be need for niche, localized exchanges and 0x makes a lllot of sense.
