LingBot-Video's open-weights model output compared to LTX-2.3

A user compared the output of LingBot-Video's open-weights model against their own LTX-2.3 run, focusing on the "chrome ball specular" effect. The LingBot-Video model maintained sharper specular lobes for longer, though both models eventually degraded. The user noted that neither model achieved accurate caustics, and the LingBot-Video model, despite claims of efficiency, still requires significant VRAM due to its full expert pool. AI
