Multimodal AI · TRACK 04/04
Video, Audio & Beyond
The frontier modalities: video, world models, music, 3D, and any-to-any.
// THE TRACK
01 · START HEREAI Video GenerationUnderstand how video models extend image diffusion across time, why temporal consistency is the hard part, and what today's models can do.BEGINNERAI Music GenerationUnderstand how AI turns a text prompt into a full song with vocals and instruments, how style transfer and lyrics-to-song work, and what the copyright debates are really about.BEGINNERAI Avatars & Lip-SyncUnderstand how lip-sync and talking-head models animate a face from audio, the legitimate product uses, and how they differ from deepfakes.INTERMEDIATEDetecting AI ContentUnderstand the three detection approaches — statistical detectors, invisible watermarks, and signed provenance — and how reliable each really is.INTERMEDIATEText-to-Video vs Image-to-VideoLearn the difference between generating video from a prompt and animating an existing image, and when each one wins.BEGINNERWorld ModelsUnderstand what a world model is, how it differs from a video generator, and why a learned internal simulation matters for planning.INTERMEDIATEAny-to-Any ModelsLearn what any-to-any models are — a single network that takes and produces any modality — and why unifying them matters.INTERMEDIATEGoogle VeoYou will understand what Google Veo is, how it generates video with native audio from a prompt, and how it sits among today's text-to-video models.BEGINNERRunwayYou will understand what Runway is, how its Gen-4 model keeps characters and scenes consistent, and what production controls set an AI-video studio apart.BEGINNERKlingYou will understand what Kling is, how it turns text or images into video with convincing motion and physics, and why it became one of the most-used video models globally.BEGINNERWanYou will understand what Wan is, why it is the leading open-source video model, and how an open T2V/I2V suite can run on consumer GPUs.INTERMEDIATEOpenAI SoraYou will understand what OpenAI Sora was, how it generated video from text, and what its app shutdown and planned API wind-down mean for AI video.BEGINNER
