Says it's open source but I'm having trouble finding a link to weights and/or code?

Looks incredibly impressive btw. Not sure it's wise to call it `AniSora` but I don't really know.

Thanks!

> This model has 1 file scanned as unsafe. testvl-pre76-top187-rec69.pth

Hm, perhaps I'll wait for this to get cleared up?

This is not the first time I've heard of checkpoints being used to distribute malware. In fact, I've heard this was a popular vector from shady international groups.

I wouldn't expect this from Bilibili's Index Team, though, given how high profile they are. It's probably(?) a false positive. Though I wouldn't use it personally, just to be safe.

The safetensors format should be used by everyone. Raw pth files and pickle files should be shunned and abandoned by the industry. It's a bad format.

I wonder if the entropy of model weights and their size causes statistical false positives to appear often?
throwaway314155•46m ago
I imagine it has more to do with whether or not the file appears to have executable python code in it, as a .pth file is usually just a a pickled python object and these can be manipulated to load arbitrary python code when loaded.

Given that OpenAI call themselves "Open", I think it's great and hilarious that we're reusing their names.

There was OpenSora from around this time last year:

https://github.com/hpcaitech/Open-Sora

And there are a lot of other products calling themselves "Sora" as well.

It's also interesting to note that OpenAI recently redirected sora.com, which used to be its own domain, to sora.chatgpt.com.

I tested this out with a promotional illustration from Neon Genesis Evangelion. The model works quite well, but there are some temporal artifacts w.r.t. the animation of the hair as the head turns:

Prompt: The giant head turns to face the two people sitting.

Oh, there is a docs page with more examples:

Wan2.1 is great. Does this mean anisora is also 16fps?

There are so many glitches even on the very first example. Arm of the shirt glitching, moving hair disappear and appear out of no where. Rest is just moving arm and clouds.

Inquisitive minds need to know!

But seriously, I had the same thought, considering the general lack of guardrails surrounding high-profile Chinese genAI models... Eventually, someone will know the answer... It's inevitable...

So was this trained on existing anime? Ain't no way the corpus was licensed legally.

"animated video generation model presented by Bilibili."

You understand that china has "different" view on copyright,license etc right??

Lerc•40m ago
The right to train models on copyrighted data has yet to be determined.

China doesn't care about silly licenses.
