How Seedance 2.0 is SO GOOD (And Why Hollywood is Shook)

From the creator

Seedance 2.0 fever continues — but HOW is this model so good? Today I'm breaking down the architecture behind ByteDance's Seedance 2.0 and why this might be the first true "thinking" video model. We're looking at how Seed 2.0 (ByteDance's new flagship LLM) powers the video generation pipeline, what RAG means for the future of AI video, Hollywood's response with cease and desist orders, and I'm debunking those viral Seedance 3.0 rumors. 🔑 Key Topics: — Why Seed 2.0's cost advantage makes a thinking video model possible — How the Nano Banana / Gemini architecture compares — RAG in video generation and what it means for training data — Hollywood IP blocking and ByteDance's response — Seedance 3.0 rumor investigation Chapters 0:00 — Intro 0:43 — Seedance 2.0: Third Video, Still Not Released 1:21 — Seed 2.0: ByteDance's Flagship LLM 2:01 — The Nano Banana / Gemini Connection 2:51 — Seedance 2.0 Is a "Thinking" Video Model 4:36 — Seed 2.0's Video Analysis Capabilities 5:16 — How the Full Pipeline Works 5:46 — Why Cost Is the Secret Weapon 6:08 — Hollywood Is Not Happy 6:52 — RAG: Breaking Free From Training Data 7:43 — A Future Without Training Data? 8:17 — IP Blocking & Cease and Desist Response 9:07 — Seedance 3.0: Real or Completely Fake? 10:35 — Outro

Makers residency 4th edition

Your idea can be anything. At our last workshops, people built plant-based nutrition businesses, a way to measure planetary resilience, crochet headwear and a way to connect lonely people living in the same building. An asset manager went on to raise an additional £25M on their fund within nine months. The fourth workshop is a full day at KOKO with Nick Sarafa, learning to build with Claude Code. Bring the thing you keep meaning to start. We’ll bring the pizza.
