Sand AI surprises with MAGI-1, a 24B streaming autoregressive video model

Sand AI released MAGI-1, a 24B autoregressive diffusion model for long-form, streaming video generation with remarkable character consistency, often the Achilles' heel of AI video. It predicts video in 24-frame chunks with causal attention between them, enabling real-time streaming generation where compute doesn't scale with length. Nisten speculated it could be a major step toward usable AI-generated movies by solving the face/character consistency problem.
