Launch HN: Eggnog (YC W24) – AI videos with consistent characters

Mar 28, 2024 - news.ycombinator.com
Jitesh and Sam are developing Eggnog, an AI video platform that allows users to create consistent characters for their videos. The platform uses Low-Rank Adaption (LoRA) to train the AI model to recognize a character concept based on a set of images, resulting in consistent character representation in about 80% of the generations. However, there are still challenges with character generation, such as incorrect gender, missing costume details, and controlling body movement, which they plan to address through prompt optimization and the use of new open-source video models.

Eggnog also allows users to share their characters and videos, with the aim of creating a library of video components including characters, costumes, sets, and sounds. The platform is free to use, with plans to monetize through ads shown to viewers of the AI videos. The developers are excited to see the creative output of users and are open to feedback.

Key takeaways:

  • Eggnog is an AI video platform that allows users to create consistent characters for their videos using Low-Rank Adaption (LoRA).
  • The platform uses a set of images of a character in different scenarios to teach the model that character as a concept, resulting in consistent character generations about 80% of the time.
  • Users can share their characters and videos, and the platform plans to allow users to create and remix all components of a video, including characters, costumes, sets, and sounds.
  • Eggnog is free to use and plans to generate revenue by showing ads to viewers who come to watch AI videos.
