Luma Labs just launched Dream Machine, a new AI model that can generate high-quality, realistic 5-second video clips

Luma Labs just launched Dream Machine, a new AI model that can generate high-quality, realistic 5-second video clips from text and image prompts — and is already available to the public, unlike OpenAI’s Sora.

The details:

The model generates 5-second clips from text prompts or a reference image with impressive smoothness, consistency, and camera movements.
Dream Machine is a transformer model trained on video content, allowing for more coherent outputs that better mimic real-world interactions and physics.
Luma says the model can produce 120 frames of video in 120 seconds, though wait times were longer at release with high demand.
The tool launched with a free plan offering 30 video generations, with a paid tier extending to 2,000 outputs per month.

Why it matters: While the public still awaits the launch of OpenAI’s Sora, other models like KLING and Dream Machine are already giving users a taste of powerful new capabilities. AI video is taking a massive leap — and each new competitor is raising the bar even higher for when Sora does open to the mass
