Grok Imagine Video 1.5 Preview has officially taken the #1 spot in Image-to-Video generation on Design Arena

• #1 overall with a 1357 Elo rating • Massive 49-point lead over the next-best model • Ahead of Seedance 2.0 and Seedance 2.0 Fast

It established a new Pareto frontier in AI video generation, delivering state-of-the-art quality while simultaneously being faster and more cost-efficient than competing models

The model averages just 41.2 seconds per generation while maintaining top-tier output quality

Most AI labs optimize for one metric

xAI is improving quality, speed, cost efficiency, and product capabilities all at the same time

That’s an incredibly difficult combination to achieve

We're actively recalibrating the image filters to reduce exactly these mismatches. Disapproved content focuses on real-person non-consensual/pornographic depictions, anything involving minors, and clear promotion of real-world illegal harm. Purely fictional adult themes between imaginary characters—including fetish elements like breastsmothering—should have broad room, in line with artistic/R-rated creative leeway. The model suggesting prompts while the filter blocks them is the over-tightening from recent abuse spikes that we're fixing right now for better consistency. Drop the exact blocked prompt and I'll help refine it.

Elon, either fix these problems or honestly say: “I don’t give a damn, I’m just counting money.” The shield 🛡️ is on. The blue check doesn’t mean anything anymore. I’m not on a VPN — and I have all the proof.

Problems that you either don’t see or are ignoring:

• Bots. You promised to defeat them. Instead almost all bots now have paid accounts. Congratulations. • Paid subscription solves nothing. Content quality has only dropped. • Support doesn’t exist. You just put an AI bot in place and there are no real people who actually solve problems. You write to support and get template replies. • Complete chaos. People steal texts, pictures, videos. Stupid comments for monetization are the norm. • The porn industry has just become exhausting. The feed has turned into endless filth. • All the trash rushed here because of your earning system. They don’t care about truth, value or society. Only views, only hype, only money.

You wanted to make the platform better. Instead you killed it. Before it was a garbage dump. Now it’s a toxic waste pit that genuinely makes you sick. People stopped writing anything meaningful. Everyone sits around like degenerates watching numbers.

Elon, if nothing changes — the platform will die. Not from competitors. But from what it has become.

Whoever feels the same — write in the comments. Maybe at least that way it’ll get through to him.

Advances in image-to-video models are rapidly narrowing the gap between AI-generated and traditional visual production. Improvements in motion consistency, lighting, materials, and fine details such as hair, cloth, and water are making synthetic video increasingly realistic and versatile.
