A new, uncensored AI video model may spark a new AI hobbyist movement

Will Tencent’s “open source” HunyuanVideo launch an at-home “Stable Diffusion” moment for uncensored AI video?

Unlike the aforementioned models, HunyuanVideo's neural network weights are openly distributed, which means they can be run locally under the right circumstances (people have already demonstrated it on a consumer 24 GB VRAM GPU) and it can be fine-tuned or used with LoRAs to teach it new concepts. As we saw with Stable Diffusion 3's mangled release, including nudity or pornography in training data may allow these models achieve better results by providing more information about human bodies. Overall, the results shown above seem fairly comparable to Gen-3 Alpha and Minimax video-01, and that's notable because HunyuanVideo can be downloaded for free, fine-tuned, and run locally in an uncensored way (given the appropriate hardware).
