Assistive Video: Better Than Runway ML

It’s been barely a week since I wrote about VideoPeot, an LLM model from Google with the impressive, nay (so far) unparalleled ability to create videos from text and images. Since Google hasn’t made the model public yet, I wrote,

“The current AI race is wild, to say the least. Having seen the world completely changed by AI in only one year (in 2023,) we can safely assume that it’s only going to be more insane. So it’s only a matter of time before OpenAI, Microsoft, or a startup like Runway ML comes up with an even better model.”

And man, I was right. But I was also wrong simultaneously because, this time, it’s not Big Tech or a well-known startup like Runway ML but a company that no one knows about. As of the time of writing this article, even Google Search doesn’t return the company’s website or any article talking about the same. So, it might very well be the first article on Assistive Video.

The company is a serious contender in the text-to-video game, and you’ll likely agree after seeing these demos.

Here are some more examples:

How Good is Assistive Video?

We saw countless AI startups pop up daily in 2023, and the trend is bound to go exponential. It’s the first week of 2024, and we have already seen much in the AI world.

Back to Assistive Video, I must say that they’re better than anything that currently exists. We’re talking about text-to-video, specifically.

Runway ML was the Chat GPT of text-to-video. However, while everyone knew better tools would be available soon, most of us failed to realize it’d be this soon.

So far, Assistive Video outperforms Runway ML, so much so that I think it’s a shame even to compare them. Runway ML isn’t comparable to Assistive Video – when it comes to creating videos from text, the latter’s output is something out of this world.

If you have used Runway ML, you probably know that its text-to-video feature sucks. The only thing that Runway ML did well was image-to-video, but Assistive Video’s output in this field, too, is slightly better than the former.

So, in a nutshell, currently, Assistive Video is the single best AI text-to-video tool on the market. It’s a matter of time before it loses its position to something even better.
