The 15-second duration is a game changer for narrative content. Most AI video tools force you to think in 5-second chunks, which makes storyboarding feel disjointed.

What I'm most curious about is the native audio generation - is it just ambient sound/music, or can it generate synchronized speech? If it's the latter with reasonable lip-sync, that could eliminate a lot of post-production work for explainer videos and short-form content.

Also wondering about the API availability. Having this accessible programmatically would open interesting possibilities for automated content pipelines.

The 15-second duration is huge for anyone doing short-form content. The main question I have is temporal consistency - in longer clips, do characters and objects maintain their appearance throughout? That's been the Achilles heel of most video models. You get amazing individual frames but things subtly morph or drift over time. Has anyone stress-tested this with complex scenes?

If they want to resist the thousands of billion of $ from their competition, they better have a opened weight policy like deepseek.

stop churning out api wrappers.
