Если попросить нейросеть "сгенерируй видео" одной фразой, результат почти всегда получается случайным. Работает связка из двух моделей. Сначала генерируется один статичный лист с раскадровкой (несколько пронумерованных кадров-панелей), а затем этот лист превращается в видео покадровым промтом с таймкодами, планами и звуком.

К 1967 году волгоградцы уже успели подзабыть ужасы войны, но однажды эхо Сталинградской битвы их догнало — над мирным городом разнёсся жуткий грохот. Виновницу загадочной канонады нашли быстро: на Мамаевом кургане как раз достроили, ещё не успев официально открыть, памятник «Родина-мать зовёт!» Неужели жителям теперь придётся вечно слушать этот «хеви-метал»?!

На рынке цифровых FPV-видеосистем внезапно появилась куча «новых» брендов — BetaFPV, HGLRC и другие. Вот только стоит вскрыть их модный HD-юнит, и выясняется кое-что любопытное про то, что скрывается под крышкой у всех сразу.Я взял один такой и решил дойти до самого дна: рут-консоль, пароль, аппаратный энкодер и вопрос, который не давал покоя — а можно ли заставить FPV-очки показать то, чего камера никогда не видела?

The decline continued after that, reaching 18.6% in June, but Lansweeper says migration has now slowed... Read more ›
