Runway has announced a new, extremely accelerated version of its video AI Gen-3 Alpha. Gen-3 TAlpha Turbo will be made available to paying and free users for image-to-video mode in the next few days. The new Gen-3 Turbo is said to be 7x faster and also significantly cheaper than the previous Gen-3 Alpha model - with similar quality. According to Runway, the speed of generation will be near real-time (i.e. 24 frames per second). ![]()
So far, Runway has only released a single sample video showing the very respectable results of Gen-3 Turbo compared to Gen-3 (standard), but only when Gen-3 Turbo is publicly available will we see if the quality of the new fast model is really always comparable to the results of Gen-3 Alpha. One nice aspect of the cheaper model: if the free credits per month for the free accounts remain the same, but the number of credits required for a video decreases with the new model, then even more videos could be generated for free.
According to Runway, the new optimized Turbo model is much more efficient and thus requires significantly fewer resources to achieve similar performance as before. OpenAI has taken a similar approach with its new ![]() ![]() deutsche Version dieser Seite: Neue Runway Gen-3 Turbo: deutlich billiger und 7x schneller |
