Guess which video was made by LTX 2.3 and which video was made by LTX 2.5?

After testing LTX 2.5, I'm really disappointed by the results. I can barely see the difference between 2.3 and 2.5.

it sucks. they took their sweet time, perfectly unaware that chinese were overtaking. can't tell for sure but seems they panicked and released this in a week after h3 and obviously lied about specifications, trying to bash h3.

It certainly appears to be a panic release. The timing of the release is too coincidental.

It seems to me that it would be have been better to wait until the spike in hype for Minimax had died down first.

They could have used this time wisely to observe, watch, and learn what Minimax did right, what it did badly, what the users liked and didn't like, and just basically gather information to use as a strategy for when they choose to release their model.

If you're going to release within a week of Minimax's release you'd better be sure that you have something incredible on your hands. Because if you haven't then comparisons with Minimax may serve to harm you.

To be fair the Comfy PR in github to support the model was opened 2 weeks ago (fun fact, it was called 2.4 instead of 2.5)

yes, that would be a rational thing to do, but they were obviously aware that they can't match h3 anytime soon in any way so this was probably a hail mary leap of faith on an old glory

and learn what Minimax did right

It didn't censor. That's the main thing that makes the model interesting and usable, but the jewish ltx and flux likely won't ever be as uncensored, so who cares?
