BioComputing releases Mischief 1, an image-to-video model that takes a starting image and a prompt and outputs 720p video.

Founder Alex Ksendzovsky says the model costs from 0.5 cents per second and is at least 5x faster than its base model, making it the cheapest image-to-video model on fal and OpenRouter. The company says it will soon be listed on the AWS marketplace.

Rohan Paul reports that Biological Computing Co says Mischief 1 adds a layer based on findings from living human brain cells on electrodes to the open-weight model Wan 2.2. He says the layer adds less than 0.1% to Wan 2.2's parameters and that the company claims it matches Wan 2.2's quality at 5x the speed.

Santiago (@svpino) says Mischief 1 is 5x faster and 80% cheaper to run than its base model, and that its output does not reach production quality.

The layer adds less than 0.1% to Wan 2.2's parameters, and the company claims it matches Wan 2.2's quality at 5x the speed. Mischief 1 is available through an API at 0.5 cents per second, according to Alex Ksendzovsky.

    BioComputing's Mischief 1 video model runs at least 5x faster than its base

    AIBioComputing has spent four years studying how living neurons compute on electrodes, and its first product, Mischief 1, is a video model at least 5x faster than its base model. According to BioComputing's founder, Mischief 1 costs 0.5 cents per second of generated video and is the cheapest image-to-video model on fal and OpenRouter. Elvis Saravia says the research could improve AI efficiency, citing the brain's roughly 20 watts of power use.

    Mischief 1 image-to-video model is 5x faster and 80% cheaper

    AIThis is a great model for exploring ideas quickly and cheaply. It's an image-to-video generation model. 5x faster and 80% lower inference cost than its base open-weight model. • Input: a starting image and a prompt describing what you want • Output: a 720p video • Advantages: Fast generation, low cost. Easy to iterate. • Disadvantages: Output doesn't have production quality.
