Here is a condensed summary of the main points from the text in HTML format:

Pika Labs is a free, new AI video generator launched in December 2023 that was previously in closed beta. The narrator demonstrates how to create an account and use Pika to generate AI videos in one of three ways:

- Enter a text prompt like "robots snowboarding down mountain" and Pika will generate a short video

- Upload an image or video and Pika will generate a video based on it

- Combine a text prompt and uploaded media, which works best. Keep prompts broad and simple.

The initial video is 3 seconds, but can be extended and edited. The narrator will cover using Pika's editing features in an upcoming video.

.

The narrator explains that when prompting AI video tools like Pika, it's best to use short, simple prompts instead of long, detailed ones. Pika has limitations compared to AI image generators, so prompts should be broadly descriptive of a scene in just a few words. For example, "new year's party" works better than a long prompt describing a man on a couch with a party behind him. Short prompts give Pika more flexibility to create the scene. The narrator shows an example of a long prompt resulting in a distorted, unusable video, and compares it to a short prompt of just "new year's party" which is more stable and usable.

In summary, when using Pika: - Use prompts that are just a few broadly descriptive words about the scene - Avoid long, detailed prompts like you would use for images - Short prompts give Pika more training data to work with - This results in better, more usable AI generated videos

Here is a condensed summary of the main points from the text in 211 words:

The narrator believes that the best way to use Pica AI is to first create an image with DALL-E, MidJourney, or another AI art generator, and then import that image into Pica to generate variations.

As an example, the narrator shows an image of a robot boxer in a futuristic gym created with DALL-E. He says this is a "pretty solid image" that looks natural and has good lighting and motion.

In contrast, when the narrator tried generating images from text prompts alone in Pica, the results were "pretty badly" failed attempts.

The narrator stresses that for "best results with Pica, start with an image you create with Dali or mid-journey or one of the other tools, then import it into Pica." Also, include a short scene description text prompt.

In the narrator's opinion, "Image plus text prompt is going to be better than text prompt all on its own" when using Pica AI.

He hopes the video makes it clear that pre-generating images with DALL-E or MidJourney and then using those images as prompts in Pica will produce better results than text prompts alone.

Pica is an AI image and video generation tool with advanced features. The narrator walks through uploading an image, giving it a broad descriptive prompt, and generating a 24 FPS video. Quotas allow 5 concurrent generations, 50 per day, or 10 per hour.

Under video options, you can specify the frame rate and enter negative prompts to avoid undesirable outputs like "ugly," "blurry," etc. The seed number allows regenerating a specific style. Setting text weight lower makes the image override the text prompt more.

The narrator generates a subtle futuristic living room scene with small drone and robot movements. Options allow retrying, re-prompting, in-painting to edit parts of the image, expanding the canvas, upscaling, and extending the video length up to 12 seconds, although quality degrades over time.

The next video will cover the narrator's full workflow for generating usable Pica videos.

Here is a condensed summary of the main points from the text:

Pica is a free AI video creation tool that has major limitations due to a watermark. The narrator outlines a workflow to create better videos by:

- Creating an image in DALL-E or Midjourney

- Importing into Pica and entering a short, descriptive prompt

- Retrying the prompt multiple times until satisfied

- Upscaling and extending the video to improve quality

- Using Runway ML to remove watermark and enhance video further

- Hopes Pica adds paid plans to remove limitations in future

- Sees lots of potential in Pica to create high quality AI videos
