ByteDance & TikTok
🎬 Seedance 2.0 Might Be the Best AI Video Tool Right Now

The Bite:
Seedance 2.0 just raised the bar for AI video generation.

The new model improves motion control, multi-shot consistency, and prompt accuracy, first things that usually break in text-to-video tools.

It’s built by ByteDance, the company behind TikTok. And for creators, this isn’t just another model update. It’s a workflow upgrade.

If you make videos for a living (or want to), this one matters.

Snacks:

• Better motion coherence across cuts and camera angles

• Stronger character and object consistency between shots

• More reliable prompt alignment with complex scene descriptions

• Multi-shot generation in a single sequence

• Competing directly with Sora, Runway, and Pika

Why it Bites:
Most AI video tools still feel like experiments. Seedance 2.0 is trying to fix that.

For creators, the unlock isn’t just “cool visuals.” It’s control.

If you can maintain characters across shots and steer camera movement with intent, you can actually tell a story. That moves AI video from toy to tool.

• Compared to Runway and Pika, Seedance appears stronger in motion flow and scene continuity.

• Compared to OpenAI’s Sora, this feels more usable right now, since Sora still isn’t broadly accessible.

And here’s the bigger picture:

ByteDance already owns the platform where short-form video wins.
If the same ecosystem now has one of the strongest generation models, creators inside that orbit get leverage early.

This won’t replace filmmakers tomorrow. But it lowers the cost of looking cinematic. A solo creator with ideas can now produce shots that used to require a crew.

Things change when AI tools move from “impressive demo” to “repeatable output.”

Seedance 2.0 might be that moment.

Opinion
📂 AI Is Eating Software But IT Services Might Get Richer

The Bite:
Everyone keeps saying AI is gonna wipe out software.

Less code. Fewer developers. Smaller budgets.

But there’s a quieter shift happening underneath that headline: when software gets easier to build, the hard part becomes deciding what to build and how to make it work in the real world.

And that’s where IT services step back into the picture.

Snacks:

• AI reduces the cost of writing code

• More tools mean more possibilities and more decisions

• Integration complexity increases, not decreases

• Risk, governance, and accountability become even more important

• Some service firms will fail; others will level up

Why it Bites:
The assumption goes like this: if AI can write code, services firms lose work.

That’s surface-level thinking.

Yes, AI can already do plenty of development-related work. But once you lower the barrier to building software, you raise the number of options available.

More options = more complexity.

Imagine AI writes 80% of your internal system. Great.
Now who defines the architecture?
Who ensures compliance across regions?
Who integrates it with five legacy systems?
Who owns the outcome when something breaks?

AI compresses production. It doesn’t eliminate responsibility.

And responsibility can be expensive.

This is where the market shifts. Not toward bodies billing hours, but toward contextual expertise and macro-decisions.

Some services firms will absolutely struggle.
The ones that treat AI like a plug-and-play tool will get caught off guard.

The firms that understand AI expands the surface area of decisions and accountability will move up the value chain.

AI is making software cheaper.
It’s also making judgment more valuable.

If you run a services business, this isn’t a funeral. It’s a filter.
And the ones that make it through won’t be writing more code.

They’ll be owning more consequence.
