Wan 2.5
Wan 2.5 is an open-source AI video generation model developed by Alibaba's DAMO Academy. It produces video clips up to 10 seconds long at resolutions up to 1080p, and generates synchronized audio — including dialogue with lip-sync, ambient sound effects, and background music — alongside the visuals in a single generation step. The model accepts text prompts, still images, audio tracks, or existing video clips as input, and supports cinematic controls such as camera movement types, lighting styles, and depth of field specified directly in the prompt. Wan 2.5 is designed for content creators, filmmakers, advertisers, and developers who need video output with accompanying audio without separate post-production workflows. It supports prompts and generated dialogue in at least 8 languages, and offers 480p, 720p, and 1080p as standard output resolutions with native 4K available in preview. Compared to its predecessor Wan 2.2, this version doubles the maximum video duration from 5 to 10 seconds, raises the standard resolution from 720p to 1080p, and introduces the audio generation system as an entirely new feature.

What people think about Wan 2.5
Wan 2.5 discussions are most active in r/StableDiffusion, r/HiggsfieldAI, r/comfyui. Top Reddit threads cluster around benchmark and model-comparison threads, safety and censorship questions.
The strongest match in this snapshot has 292 upvotes and 132 comments.
WAN 2.5 was uncensored on higgsfield, can anyone tell me if WAN 2.6 is still uncensored? Higgsfield no longer gives enough credits to run off even ONE test video.
The "official" WAN 2.5/2.6 page is heavily censored making it useless. Try to describe a G rated scene where people are sunbathing by a pool and it will probably be blocked.
With the release of Wan 2.5/2.6 still uncertain in terms of open-source availability, I’m wondering if there are any locally runnable video generation models that come close to its quality. Ideally looking for something that can be downloaded and run offline (or self-hosted), even if it requires beefy hardware. Any recommendations or comparisons would be appreciated.

Just incase you didn't free up some space, be ready .. for 10 sec 1080p generations.

Sounds like they will eventually release it but maybe if enough people ask it will happen sooner than later.
>I'll say it first, so as not to be scolded,.. The 2.5 sent tomorrow is the advance version. For the time being, there is only the API version. For the time being, the open source version is to be determined. It is recommended that the community call for follow-up open source and rational comments, lest it be inappropriate to curse in the live broadcast room tomorrow. Everyone manages the expectations. It is recommended to ask for open source directly in the live broadcast room tomorrow! But rational comments, I think it will be opened in general, but there is a time difference, which mainly depends on the attitude of the community. After all, WAN mainly depends on the community, and the volume of voice is still very important.
