Infinity AI recently launched!
"Choose characters, write a script, and get a video out."
tl;dr — Infinity is building a foundation model that turns scripts into movies. Today, you can join their Discord and generate talking head videos of various celebrities (and even yourself) saying whatever you want.
Founded by Lina Colucci, Sidney Primas & Andrew Weitz
How it works
They’re training a model for each actor based on existing footage of them. They’re also training a diffusion transformer model, which will be v1 of their script-to-movie foundation model.
Here’s how to use the tool ⤵️
Unleash your creativity
Here is a video they made about TruffleMuzzle, a fake W24 startup that makes muzzles for truffle-hunting dogs. YC TV, hosted by Jared and Surbhi, follows YC startups as they “go through” the batch ⤵️
The Vision
They believe a team of 3 writers — with no actors, directors, or other crew — will win an Academy Award in the next 10 years.
✨They are building the tech they’ll use to do that.✨
From the canvas to the camera, the progression of art has been inextricably linked to the progression of new technologies. And each new technology tends to democratize the number of people who are able to create in that medium.
They are excited to empower everyone to bring their stories to life.
The Team
Andrew, Sidney, and Lina have been building companies together for the past 5 years (Infinity is their 2nd), but they’ve known each other for over 10 years.
They met and studied engineering at Duke. Andrew got his PhD at Stanford. Lina got her PhD at MIT. And Sidney was smart and dropped out of his MIT PhD.
Their first company was a 10-person, multi-million dollar ML consulting agency where they developed and shipped AI products for Nike, Google, and other tech companies.
"We think that people are at the center of stories. So we’re on a mission to build the world’s best model for generating human motion and emotion."
