Description from the channel

Real-time AI video just got REAL: MiniMax H3 MAX (running on fal, built from the open-source H3) can generate a 5-second clip — with audio — in under 3 seconds. That's faster than you can watch it. And the internet needed exactly one weekend to turn it into infinite AI TV channels, a 24/7 AI news station, and games you play by prompting. In this one: the breakthrough, the wild projects, how to try it yourself for FREE (no GPU required) — plus what it actually costs to run, and whether H3 MAX will be open-sourced.
