Section titled “Full transcript (original language)”00:00 Now in kind of more exciting ByteDance news, we did get our first look at the world model that they’ve been building. But the part that got me doing like the like the Leo like pointing at the screen meme um was camera re-tracking within a video. Showcased was a scene from Stephen Chow’s King of Comedy, which actually shouldn’t be a surprise considering that Chow recently signed a licensing deal with ByteDance uh you know for AI generated video. And as we can see in this demo from the film, uh we can now take like environmental details and performances of that
00:31 original shot and re-track them. Now it’s kind of hard to tell from the footage again. It’s like bootleg footage. Um but it does look like that UI in the corner there does seem to like have some like 3D controls to it. Uh and then on the second shot um I I don’t know I’m still again not entirely sure, but it looks like it might be a Gaussian splat that’s in there. Again, really hard to tell.
