Dream Machine 1.5 Catches Sora and other rival AI video makers napping

Web Hosting & Remote IT Support

Luma Labs has enhanced its Dream Machine AI video generator to a new level of realism and greater ability to interpret your vision. Dream Machine 1.5 should really act as an alarm clock to its rivals to step up their efforts. That's especially true for OpenAI, which seems to keep hitting snooze on releasing its Sora AI video model to the public. 

Dream Machine only came out a couple of months ago, but Dream Machine 1.5 is a major step up when it comes to making better videos out of text and image prompts. The most immediate improvement is speed. The new model can generate five seconds of high-quality video in approximately two minutes. That could prove critical for content creators and marketers working under tight deadlines. 

Despite making the videos more quickly, Dream Machine 1.5's videos are more realistic than its predecessor. That extends to not only the look of the video as a whole but also the movement on the screen. There are far fewer glitches as objects travel around a virtual space. Some of that might be from the similarly upgraded character consistency, even when iterating on a prompt. Better adherence to a model makes for much more realistic physical movement. The last major upgrade to note is that Dream Machine 1.5 is far better at accurately rendering text – a task that AI often struggles with.

AI Video Race

Luma certainly has plenty of competition from other AI video generators, despite its impressive upgrade. The most notable is OpenAI and its Sora model, but just being more available will help Luma in this case. OpenAI's decision to limit Sora to certain partners means there are a lot of people interested in AI video who can't use it. Dream Machine 1.5 is right there waiting. Other developers who took the Sora route have since changed their tune, such as Kuaishou and its Kling AI video generator.  That said, OpenAI is far from Luma's only rival. Runway, Stability AI, Pika, Kling, and TikTok owner Bytedance's Jimeng are just some of the others racing to snap up as much of the AI video market as possible.

Despite the hurdles, the launch of Dream Machine 1.5 is a big deal in the world of AI-generated video. As AI video tech keeps getting better, it’s set to shake up industries like entertainment, advertising, education, and journalism. The ability to whip up high-quality video content quickly and easily is opening up fresh creative opportunities and making visual communication more dynamic and engaging than ever before.

Ransomware and email attacks are hitting businesses more than ever before

Web Hosting & Remote IT Support Ransomware and business email compromise (BEC) attacks are hitting businesses more than ever before, a new report by Cisco Talos Incident Response (Talos IR) has claimed. The report states ransomware and BEC accounted for almost two-thirds (60%) of engagements, combined. There had been fewer BEC engagements this quarter, compared to the previous one, Talos added, noting it was “still a major threat for the second quarter in a row.” At the same time, Ransomware accounted for almost a third (30%) of engagements this quarter, up by a quarter (22%) compared to the same time three months ago.  Tech firms in the crosshairs Furthermore, the researchers observed Mallox and Underground Team ransomware families for the first time, suggesting the number of threat actors in the industry continues to grow. At the same time, Black Basta and BlackSuit ransomware operations continue to wreak havoc among organizations. The majority of organizations falling vi

Report: Android's desktop mode might allow future tablets to double as computers

Web Hosting & Remote IT Support Back in April , evidence surfaced online revealing that Google was working on improving Android's desktop mode. Early demos show it’ll be more user-friendly than before by having movable windows, although it still lacks vital features. Since then, we haven’t heard much about the project until recently, when it popped up again in the “latest Android 15 Beta 4.1 release”. Android expert Mishaal Rahman discovered that Android’s feature may work on a tablet – provided it has a big enough display. In the build, he states that if you go to the device’s 'Recents' view and open the dropdown menu for an app, you will see a new button called “Desktop.” Tapping said button causes whatever app you were on to turn into a free-floating window. From here on, it behaves similarly to a browser on Samsung's New DeX system. The app can be minimized, maximized, attached to the side, or connected to another window. Down at the bottom is a taskbar
