A few months ago, I started making video clips with stable diffusion and noticed that the tools to do this were too complicated for everyday people. That's why I built neural frames. Enjoy.

I tried to train text to video and image to video models to generate 2D game animations. I used public game animation data and 3D mixamo model rendered animations to train the animation generation models. I'm open sourcing the model, training data, training code and data generation code. More technical details can be found in my blog (https://www.gavinliblog.com/posts/godmodeanimation).

I've had a blast playing with stable diffusion and I see all the potential it will bring to us. I released a service for training your model, just upload 20-30 images and you can have a model of someone or some object doing anything. You can train one model for free a month in a slower queue or you can train many models on a fast queue and with other features for a fee. Here is an example of using it for show product placement: https://app.88stacks.com/image/O6kReClOvrz7 and here is an example of using it for people:…

I’ve spent the last few months building a deep learning engine completely from scratch in Python (using only math and random). What started as a basic linear algebra calculator project grew into a symbolic tensor system with autodiff, custom matrix ops, attention mechanisms, LayerNorm, GELU, and even a text generation demo trained on the Brown corpus. I'm still an undergrad, so my main goal is to deeply understand how deep learning actually works under the hood - gradients, attention, backpropagation, optimizers - by building it step-by-step with full visibility into everything, and without…

Hi HN — I’m an indie maker building Seedance AI. It helps people create short videos (and images) from text prompts and reference photos. I tried to keep it simple: fast templates, predictable credit pricing, and downloadable results. It’s still early, and I know there are rough edges. I’d really appreciate honest feedback on what feels useful, what feels confusing, and what I should improve first. Happy to answer technical or product questions.

sora2 ai▲9Sora2 AI is a next-generation AI model for video and audio generation. It builds on the original Sora, adding advanced physics simulation, temporal consistency, synced audio, and rich style control to produce cinematic-quality videos from simple text or image prompts. Key Capabilities: Physics-aware motion: realistic collisions, inertia, and interactions Temporal stability: minimal flicker, consistent identities, smooth transitions Audio sync: lip-sync, ambient sounds, beat alignment with visuals High-fidelity details and multiple styles (photorealistic, anime, 3D, illustration) Precise…

Sora2Video▲16Hi HN I recently ran into a common issue with AI-generated videos — dynamic watermarks that move across frames. Instead of manually editing them out, I decided to experiment with AI-based cleanup and wrote a small tool called *Sora2 Video Cleaner*. It uses frame-level detection and temporal consistency to automatically identify and smooth out watermark regions, restoring a cleaner video output. The goal isn’t to “crack” anything proprietary, but to help creators improve their visuals and repurpose their content more cleanly. Try it here:…
