The landscape of AI video generation has just shifted. We’re thrilled to announce that MAGI-1, the revolutionary autoregressive video generation model from Sand AI, is now available on WaveSpeedAI. With its exceptional understanding of physical interactions and cinematic prompts, MAGI-1 represents a fundamental leap forward in how AI creates video content—delivering results that rival and often surpass industry giants.
What is MAGI-1?
MAGI-1 is a 24-billion parameter video generation model that takes an entirely different approach to creating video. Unlike traditional models that generate entire videos at once, MAGI-1 uses an autoregressive architecture that predicts video sequences chunk by chunk—24 frames at a time. This seemingly technical distinction makes all the difference.
Think of it like the difference between writing an entire story in one go versus crafting it sentence by sentence, where each new sentence naturally follows from what came before. This approach gives MAGI-1 an almost intuitive grasp of cause and effect, motion continuity, and the physical laws that govern our world.
The result? Videos where objects fall with convincing weight, collisions look realistic, and motion flows naturally from frame to frame. It’s the kind of temporal coherence that has long been the holy grail of AI video generation.
Key Features
Unmatched Physics Understanding
MAGI-1’s standout capability is its remarkable grasp of physical interactions. On the Physics-IQ benchmark—the industry standard for measuring how well AI models understand real-world physics—MAGI-1 achieves a score of 56.02 in Video-to-Video mode. This is nearly double the score of its closest competitors, including VideoPoet, Kling 1.6, and even Sora.
What does this mean in practice? When you prompt MAGI-1 to show a ball bouncing, it bounces correctly. When objects collide, they respond with proper momentum. When something falls, it falls with realistic acceleration. These details might seem small, but they’re what separate believable AI video from content that feels “off.”
Cinematic Quality
MAGI-1 was built with filmmakers and content creators in mind. The model excels at interpreting cinematic prompts—understanding terms like dolly shots, rack focus, and establishing shots. Whether you’re creating a sweeping landscape reveal or an intimate character moment, MAGI-1 delivers professional-grade camera movements and compositions.
Multiple Generation Modes
The model supports a unified framework across three powerful modes:
- Text-to-Video (T2V): Transform written descriptions into dynamic video content
- Image-to-Video (I2V): Bring still images to life with natural, coherent motion
- Video-to-Video (V2V): Extend and enhance existing video content seamlessly
Advanced Technical Architecture
Built on a Diffusion Transformer foundation, MAGI-1 incorporates cutting-edge innovations including Block-Causal Attention, Parallel Attention Blocks, and support for context lengths up to 4 million tokens. The chunked generation approach enables concurrent processing of up to four chunks, delivering efficient generation without sacrificing quality.
Fine-Grained Control
MAGI-1 offers chunk-wise text prompting, allowing you to specify different actions or camera movements for different parts of your video. Need a scene that starts with a wide establishing shot and transitions to a close-up? MAGI-1 handles shot transitions with precision, giving creators granular control over their vision.
Real-World Use Cases
Film and Video Production
Pre-visualization has never been more accessible. Directors and cinematographers can use MAGI-1 to quickly generate concept footage, test camera angles, and visualize complex sequences before committing to expensive production resources. The model’s understanding of cinematic language makes it an ideal tool for storyboarding animated sequences or creating proof-of-concept footage for pitches.
Marketing and Advertising
Create compelling product animations and brand videos without the traditional production overhead. MAGI-1’s ability to generate realistic physical interactions makes it particularly effective for product demonstrations—showing how items move, respond to touch, or interact with their environment.
Game Development and Concept Art
Game designers can rapidly prototype cutscenes, generate reference footage for animation teams, or create dynamic trailers. MAGI-1’s physics awareness ensures that game-related content maintains the believable motion that players expect.
Social Media Content Creation
Content creators can transform their static images into engaging video content at scale. Whether you’re animating photography, creating dynamic thumbnails, or producing short-form video content, MAGI-1 delivers quality that stands out in crowded feeds.
Educational and Training Materials
Create engaging instructional content that demonstrates physical processes, mechanical operations, or scientific concepts. MAGI-1’s accurate physics modeling makes it valuable for educational applications where realistic motion matters.
Getting Started with MAGI-1 on WaveSpeedAI
Accessing MAGI-1’s full capabilities has traditionally required significant computational resources—the 24B parameter model demands 640GB+ of VRAM. WaveSpeedAI removes this barrier entirely.

The Future of AI Video Generation
MAGI-1 represents more than incremental improvement—it’s a new paradigm. By fundamentally rethinking how AI generates video, Sand AI has created a model that doesn’t just imitate motion but understands it. The autoregressive approach that enables real-time streaming generation opens possibilities for applications we’re only beginning to imagine.
As an open-source model released under the Apache 2.0 license, MAGI-1 also signals a shift toward more accessible, community-driven AI development. The combination of cutting-edge performance and open availability makes this a pivotal moment for creators, developers, and researchers alike.
