Lightricks AI Now Generates Full 60‑Second Videos in Real-Time

Lightricks has announced an update to its LTX Video (LTXV) model. It now enables the generation of AI-powered video clips longer than 60 seconds, a substantial leap from the previous industry standard of around eight seconds.

Key Features

Interactive prompt adjustment: Users can inject or modify controls such as pose, depth, style—midstream for fully dynamic scene evolution.

Versatile model sizes: Available in both a powerful 13 billion-parameter version and a mobile-friendly 2 billion-parameter variant.

Streaming-First Architecture: The initial second of video is returned almost instantly, with the remainder streaming live.

Continuous Control Inputs: Users can dynamically adjust scenes and narratives during generation by applying new prompts and controls.

Efficient GPU performance: It can run on a single Nvidia H100—or even high-end consumer GPUs—without costly multi-GPU setups. Competing solutions often require multiple H100s for much shorter clips.

Ethical Data Training: LTXV is trained on fully-licensed data from trusted stock image providers like Getty Images and Shutterstock, ensuring copyright compliance.

Advantages

Advancement opens up a wide array of new possibilities for AI video, including:

• Social Media Creators can now make full Instagram Reels or YouTube Shorts from just a sentence of text.
• Game Studios could create real-time cinematic cutscenes that evolve with gameplay.
• Live Events and Augmented Reality performances could be enhanced with on-demand video visuals created on the spot.
• Education apps may generate personalized explainer animations for each user.

Availability

Open-source models (13B & 2B) are available now on Hugging Face and GitHub.

Full integration in LTX Studio, with enterprise licensing options for startups under $10M revenue (via a free/open‑source license).

What’s Next?

The extended capabilities of LTXV pave the way for:

• Interactive AI-driven content pipelines.
• Expanded creative toolkits in LTX Studio and other Lightricks apps (Videoleap, Photoleap, Facetune).
• Broader adoption across media, education, gaming, and AR.
