👉 Runway has introduced Gen-3 Alpha, a new AI model that offers significant improvements in detail, consistency, and motion representation in the generated videos compared to its predecessor, Gen-2.
Runway has introduced Gen-3 Alpha, a new AI model for video generation. According to Runway, it represents a “significant improvement” over its predecessor, Gen-2, in terms of detail, consistency, and motion representation.
Gen-3 Alpha has been trained on a mix of video and images and, like its predecessor, which was launched in November 2023, supports text-to-video, image-to-video, and text-to-image functions, as well as control modes such as Motion Brush, Advanced Camera Controls, and Director Mode. Additional tools are planned for the future to provide even greater control over structure, style, and motion.
