fal head of engineering @isidentical says frontier AI is spending more compute on post-training than pre-training as the biggest gains move into specialization: "If you look at today's frontier models in LLM land, they spend so much more compute on post-training and RL compared to the pre-training phase. A pre-trained base model is like a Swiss knife. Good for many purposes but not the best in individual domains." "For image and video, there is a single aspect that's very verifiable, which is…

Introducing H3 Max, new post-trained video model by fal Research. H3 Max ranks #1 for overall quality, prompt understanding, and aesthetics against leading video models, on both first-party and third-party independent evaluations while generating a 5-second 720p video under 3 seconds. H3 Max is 50% off for the next week, making it the highest quality, fastest and cheapest model for overall video generation tasks.
