New “Stable Video Diffusion” AI model can animate any still image

At the moment, it doesn't really seem to be that much better. Maybe the frames generated are a little more coherent, but you have less control over it. And from what I have seen so far, it just does very simple motions, like billowing smoke, a turning head, or clouds moving through the sky.

This is the first I've heard of Animatediff. Where do you hear about stuff like that? Lemmy? Reddit? I try to stay up to date on AI stuff, but it feels like I have to do so much digging to get new info.
