Today's AI models are a technical marvel. With enough expertise, you can steer them almost anywhere. But by default they have to serve many masters, and easy prompts give you bland results. Magnific is not build for "anyone." We serve creatives, and the default mode on these models is not what our users want. Months ago we started a project with these goals: 1) built on top of existing models. Leverage the existing AI models as the building block. Get better when models get better. 2) make the default generation by and for creatives. Easy to get great results. 3) trivial to stay on brand. A new model from scratch will be something that will become obsolete in weeks / months. Our approach enhances them for our users, making a useful contribution that is long-lasting and differentiated. After many false starts, we landed on a pre, post-processing, and routing layer on top of a few of today's state of the art models. We tested the model first with our employees, and later with external users, on two tests: best image for a given prompt, and best image overall (blinding the prompt). The first checks prompt adherence, the last checks image aesthetics. Magnific One came out first on both tests by a wide margin. You can use it exclusively on @magnific, test it yourself and tells us what you think.

por qué? los personajes, el lugar, y algunos elementos de la historia eran muy parecidos al genial "San Junipero" de Black Mirror. Decidimos cambiar el nombre de la historia, y al personaje principal. Es una de esas opciones que tenemos con la AI que no es nada fácil sin AI.

el video se llamaba "San Juan", una mujer con Alzheimer tiene flashbacks de cuándo se enamoró una noche de San Juan. Lo tenía todo: mediterraneo, música pegadiza, español. Aquí tenéis la versión original, que no llegamos a usar

New Seedream 5.0 Pro is a new SOTA model for creating and editing images, unlimited on @magnific. Burn these GPUs!!

Entonces @Lurquizu parece que han trincado tu cuenta

en España el trámite de sacar cita previa para extranjería hace años que está en manos de las mafias que lo tienen todo copado y revenden las citas. Lo sabe todo el mundo y siguen sin arreglarlo. He ido a probar a ver si ahora era ya nominativo, pero no va el botón...

I wrapped it out a few hours later. It's incredible that a geek can tell a little short story with a few hours of work. Imagine what really creative teams can do today. I had a *great* time doing this, and @Jason also liked it. This is the final version: youtu.be/Mva8ccgaDOI?si=S-5h…

what how to present him? I really liked the presentation of Captain Hook in Chronicles of Bone youtube.com/watch?v=ScfibDSM… so I tried something similar, showing his glasses before showing Jason (the voice was suuuper off)

Next I wanted to present Jason. I took some public pictures of him, and edited him: Not shaved, post apocalyptic, battered down, dirty, but still Jason. This one came out perfect on the first try

The video is very short, and I had to present the idea everybody is dead. I played with the idea of putting some corpses, but that was a bit dark. I decided to show just emptiness
