Ex-Google and TikTok Engineers Launch Haiper - An AI Startup Aiming to Make Realistic But Brief AI Videos
-
Haiper is a new AI video startup created by former Google and TikTok engineers, aiming to make high-quality AI video generation accessible.
-
The clips are currently very short (2 seconds) but focus on realistic motion without needing much prompting.
-
In tests, Haiper did well at basic motions like trees rustling or stars moving, but struggled with more complex motions like animals or dancers.
-
Image quality is good, on par with dedicated AI image generators, but consistency in motion for prominent objects needs work.
-
With recent funding, Haiper plans to expand compute power and training to increase video length and motion quality to compete with models like Sora.
