LARRUZ reviews Runway's new Gen-4 video AI, which handles complex details like spinning car wheels better than before. Results vary shot to shot, and while some drone footage looks authentic, it doesn't always match competitors' polish.

There's a brand new video model with incredible performance. Look at some of these videos. This stuff is getting better by the week. This one is called Runway Gen 4. And here's some comparisons to the top competitors out there right now for you to review. So let's do it. Okay. And right away, even from the first example, I can already tell you the quality of this is super high. And on this car example in particular, a lot of models struggle with the wheels. The wheels are just static, like on a parked car. Although it's driving on a highway, this model gets it right. Now, some of the other state of the art models also get this right. So we do have to get a bit more detail oriented here. I would say this drone shot looks authentic, but it's less polished than some of the other examples that I've even seen out of Gen 3. That's weird. It sort of looks like a lower quality camera, which is more realistic, I guess. Interesting result there. Some of these image video examples, not the best. Definitely better than Gen3, but probably not state of the art.
