    MBZUAI's IFM Releases PAN 2, an Open 29B World Model for Physical AI

    MBZUAI's Institute of Foundation Models released PAN 2, a 29B-parameter open world model that takes a scene plus a text action and simulates the outcome as video, with weights, training code and inference code under Apache 2.0. It pairs an LLM planner that writes structured JSON world states with a 29B MMDiT diffusion transformer conditioned by a frozen Qwen3.5-9B encoder, and IFM reports 34.0% full-plan completion on 100 multi-step tasks, ahead of MiniMax-H3 at 32.50%, while trailing MiniMax-H3 on single actions and human preference (Elo 1595 vs 1620). IFM's ablation shows removing the LLM planner drops full-plan completion to 0.0% and step completion from 75.1% to 8.7%.

    Google DeepMind releases Gemini Omni 1.2 Flash with 15-second clips and 30% lower price

    Google DeepMind rolled out Gemini Omni 1.2 Flash, now generally available across the Gemini API and Gemini for business, with native 15-second video generation, multi-turn conversational editing and stronger reference following. The price drops 30% from Gemini Omni 1.1 to $0.07 per second for 720p video, and users can draft at 360p or 720p before upscaling to 1080p or 4K. Clips can be set from 3 to 15 seconds in one-second increments, and outputs carry an imperceptible SynthID watermark.

    Why it matters: Gemini Omni 1.2 Flash raises native clip length to 15 seconds and cuts the price 30% to $0.07 per second of 720p video, with multi-turn conversational editing now generally available.

    Google releases Gemini Omni 1.2 Flash with 15-second clips and a 30% price cut

    Google DeepMind rolled out Gemini Omni 1.2 Flash and made it generally available across the Gemini API and Gemini for business. The model generates and edits native clips up to 15 seconds, up from 10 seconds in Omni 1.1, supports multi-turn conversational editing, and holds character, product, and style references more consistently; 720p video now costs $0.07 per second, 30% less than Omni 1.1. Outputs carry a SynthID watermark, and the model is rolling out in Flow, Google Vids, the Gemini app, and Google Ads.

    Why it matters: Gemini Omni 1.2 Flash cuts the price 30% to $0.07 per second for 720p video while extending native clips to 15 seconds, giving teams producing video at scale a cheaper option to compare against prior versions.

    MiniMax launches H3, a general-purpose multimodal generation model with native stereo video at 2K

    MiniMax launched H3, a general-purpose multimodal generation model that understands text, images, video and audio as a unified context and generates video with native stereo sound up to 15 seconds at 2K resolution. The company says 2K output costs less than a third of mainstream models per second, and it plans to open the model weights in the coming days subject to applicable laws and regulations. H3 is built on Contextual Omni Representation, H3-VAE, H3-Omni Transformer and In-Context Regeneration, and MiniMax says a full technical report is coming soon.

    Why it matters: MiniMax's H3 unifies text, image, video and audio generation in one model and claims 2K pricing below a third of mainstream models, with weights promised soon.
