Models like Sora, Veo, and Runway just do not seem all that great for entertainment production.<br><br> But we’re starting to see more AI firms building a new breed of generative model — ones that are designed to address creatives’ needs throughout the development process while also avoiding issues like potential copyright infringement. What really sets these models apart from their peers, though, is the way they can purportedly be customized through training that turns them into bespoke tools that are tailor-made for every project.</p></div></td></tr></table><table class="button_block block-5" width="100%" border="0" cellpadding="10" cellspacing="0" role="presentation" style="mso-table-lspace:0;mso-table-rspace:0"><tr><td class="pad"><div class="alignment" align="center"><a href="https://link.theverge.com/click/44680452.17781/aHR0cHM6Ly93d3cudGhldmVyZ2UuY29tL3N0cmVhbWluZy84OTM1MzgvYWktbW9kZWwtbmV0ZmxpeC1pbnRlcnBvc2l0aXZlLWJlbi1hZmZsZWNrP3VlaWQ9YmM2MjA3MmM3OWFjN2JlOTkwNDIwZTMzMzVkMGM5NTImYnhpZD02OTI3ODMwZDUyZjk3MTM3MjMwNmMxOGU/6927830d52f971372306c18eE15ab86ed" target="_blank" style="color:#ffffff;text-decoration:none;"><!--[if mso]> <v:roundrect xmlns:v="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:vml" xmlns:w="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:word" href="https://link.theverge.com/click/44680452.17781/aHR0cHM6Ly93d3cudGhldmVyZ2UuY29tL3N0cmVhbWluZy84OTM1MzgvYWktbW9kZWwtbmV0ZmxpeC1pbnRlcnBvc2l0aXZlLWJlbi1hZmZsZWNrP3VlaWQ9YmM2MjA3MmM3OWFjN2JlOTkwNDIwZTMzMzVkMGM5NTImYnhpZD02OTI3ODMwZDUyZjk3MTM3MjMwNmMxOGU/6927830d52f971372306c18eF15ab86ed" style="height:40px;width:118px;v-text-anchor:middle;" arcsize="10%" fillcolor="#5200ff"> <v:stroke dashstyle="Solid" weight="0px" color="#5200ff"/> <w:anchorlock/> <v:textbox inset="0px,0px,0px,0px"> <center dir="false" style="color:#ffffff;font-family:sans-serif;font-size:15px"> <![endif]--> <span class="button" style="background-color: #5200ff;

Warning

Almost all the messages that arrive here are garbage! Resist the urge to click on any unexpected or questionable links.

It may happen that e-mail will claim to come from liamon.com, especially from some administrative role or process. These are certainly garbage. There are no accounts to expire. There are no passwords to leak. There aren't administrators sending messages to liamon.com addresses. These are certainly phishing attempts.

Absolutely ignore those links!
