Mochi, Genmo's AI video tool, offers open-source, high-performance, and accessible video-making technology.

Have you ever heard about the rapid changes in video-making technology? Well, let me introduce you to Mochi, Genmo's latest creation that's all about generating videos. Trust me, it's something special. Mochi's a big deal because it blends top-notch performance with being easy to access. It's perfect for artists, researchers, and developers who want a taste of the latest in AI video tech.

Mochi’s preview model can churn out videos in 480p quality. Not bad, right? And it does this with a pretty straightforward design. The magic happens thanks to Genmo's fancy new 'Asymmetric Diffusion Transformer,' or AsymmDiT for short. This model's huge, with 10 billion parameters. But here's the catch – it's available to everyone! Genmo made it open-source, so folks can tweak it based on their needs and share feedback. Pretty cool if you ask me.

So, what makes Mochi tick? It's efficient. For starters, it uses something called a video VAE (fancy for variational autoencoder). This tech compresses video a whopping 128 times, keeping things smooth without giving up quality. And to keep the visuals sharp, it directs all its brainpower — a single T5-XXL language model — to follow your prompts closely. Sure, there might be a bit of wobble in fast-moving scenes right now, but that should get better soon.

And what's next for Mochi? The team at Genmo isn't stopping. Later this year, they'll roll out Mochi HD, stepping up to 720p videos with even clearer quality. Thanks to the open-source license under Apache 2.0, anyone can jump in, tweak, and enhance it if they've got the skills. So, if you're into video stuff, Mochi is something you might want to check out at Genmo’s playground. Who knows? It could be the next big thing for video lovers like us.
