a16z 访谈 fal:开源视频模型 H3 提速 35 倍,实现实时连续生成
a16z 与 fal 团队对话,介绍其重建 MiniMax 开源视频模型 H3 的工程细节:重写各阶段代码、将 GPU 利用率从 30-40% 提升至 70-80%,实现约 35 倍加速且称无质量损失,5 秒视频约 1.5 秒生成,支持最长 60 分钟连续、动作可控的视频生成。fal 称好莱坞已成为其增长最快的客户群,但相关效果均为受访者自述。

fal's Gorkem Yurtseven and Batuhan Taskaya on how faster-than-real-time generation unlocked continuous, interactive AI video:
"One of our engineers, Rehan, started streaming a live stream of continuous generations of H3 Max from his laptop. He was doing some prompt tricks, trying to keep a coherent story, and then he started livestreaming that on Twitch."
"Our ML team was essentially trying to take every single video model and apply these optimizations and tricks... You never could generate five seconds under five seconds. Once H3 Max unlocked it, the ML team was like, 'This is insane.'"
"You can essentially stream infinitely. We capped it at an hour... I think it's the only model that can generate up to 60 minutes of continuous video that is action-controlled."
"You can start with a prompt, say there's an office setting and someone is working, and then 30 seconds later it just imagines by itself. 30 seconds later, you can say, 'A woman walks in through the door.' It can take the prompt and reflect it immediately, which is the most fun part."
"And the office is still the same office. The camera can pan back to the original person, and the original person is still there in the same state."

.[@fal](https://x.com/fal)'s Gorkem Yurtseven and Batuhan Taskaya on making an open source video model 35x faster, and what Hollywood wanted after they built it:
Last month, MiniMax released H3, an open source video model. fal rebuilt it - they cut down the steps the model takes to make a video, rewrote the code under each stage, and got the GPUs to 70-80% of their theoretical ceiling instead of their usual 30-40%. No quality loss.
Video now generates faster than you can film it. The models have gotten so cheap and fast that end users aren't even asking for improvements in either category anymore. The gap has moved to quality, or how closely the model follows the prompt.
Hollywood wasn't a customer a year ago and is now fal's fastest growing segment. Studios love it for the little things - extending a shot, moving the camera, changing the lighting. Those edits land 80-90% of the time. fal is chasing 99.9%.
In this conversation with a16z's Jennifer Li:
