Ahoy, me hearties! Meta be unleashin' its jolly new contraption for makin' moving pictures, and it be settin' sail with a crew of film-making mates! Arrr, let the grog flow as we plunder the seas of creativity with this wondrous treasure!

Ahoy, me hearties! Gather ‘round as I regale ye with the tale of a new contraption from the tech seas, known as Movie Gen! Aye, this be a rival in the great AI video race, with the power to conjure flicks from mere texts—much like the famed Sora model. But beware, for access be limited to a select crew of filmmakers, as this treasure be kept from the public eye!

Now, this Movie Gen can spin ye a yarn in a mere 16 seconds, though it be movin’ slower than a drunken snail at only 16 frames per second. If ye be lookin’ for a swifter 24 fps, ye better keep it short, or ye’ll be left wantin’ more! And what’s this? A personalization feature that plops ye into the action? Aye, that’s the spirit!

But hold yer horses! It also crafts soundscapes that match the visuals—like thunder rumblin’ in a storm or the roar of a ship’s engine. Yet, human speech be absent from this fine creation. Meta be keepin’ a tight grip on this treasure, with fears it may fall into the wrong hands. With rivals like Runway and Pika lurkin’ about, will Movie Gen claim the crown, or walk the plank? Only time will tell, savvy?
