FLUX 3 Might Be the Open Source Sora 2 We Deserve
FLUX 3 is Black Forest Labs' new multimodal model for video, native audio, images, and robotics—and the early examples look genuinely wild. I also dig into Claude Opus 5's strange ARC-AGI-3 jump, and test it on an open-ended 3D invention prompt. The FLUX demos are not perfect—fast combat still breaks—but the real-world physics, sound, variety, and open-weight roadmap have me more excited than I have been in a while. I have been away for a few weeks after moving, and this is my dive back into the AI swarm. ▼ Link(s) From Today’s Video: Official FLUX 3 announcement: https://x.com/bfl_ai/status/2080308988961554582 Request early Flux 3 Access: https://bfl.ai/models/flux-3 Official Claude Opus 5 announcement: https://www.anthropic.com/news/claude-opus-5 https://x.com/claudeai/status/2080699495453528290 FLUX 3 features and open-weight plans: https://x.com/Machinedelusion/status/2080319444220272752 Tanzim — megastructure early-access test: https://x.com/tanzim31/status/2080354718770188683 Umesh — rally-car physics test: https://x.com/umesh_ai/status/2080332510358282688 Macbeth — nostalgic 2003 footage: https://x.com/macbethAI/status/2080399545528459746 Justine Moore — realism and multi-shot examples: https://x.com/venturetwins/status/2080318877154852912 Dustin Podell — wax-figure native-audio test: https://x.com/dustin_podell/status/2080330945832562748 Christopher Fryant — first-person samurai test: https://x.com/cfryant/status/2080643583204331599 Umesh — split-screen camera consistency test: https://x.com/umesh_ai/status/2080585387144274290 DΞV — multi-scene FLUX 3 compilation: https://x.com/junwatu/status/2080583270052606368 Wildminder — FLUX 3 example compilation: https://x.com/wildmindai/status/2080564435211440276 MattVidPro Discord: https://discord.gg/mattvidpro Follow Me on Twitter: https://twitter.com/MattVidPro Buy me a Coffee! https://buymeacoffee.com/mattvidpro ▼ Extra Links of Interest: General AI Playlist: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLrfI66qWYbW3acrBQ4qltDBsjxaoGSl3I Instagram: instagram.com/mattvidpro Tiktok: tiktok.com/@mattvidpro Gaming & Extras Channel: https://www.youtube.com/@MattVidProGaming Let's work together! - For brand & sponsorship inquiries: https://tally.so/r/3xdz4E - For all other business inquiries: mattvidpro@smoothmedia.co Thanks for watching MattVideoProductions!
