Seedance 2.0 Tested on Robot Tasks
DJiafei · x · 2026-07-18
The author tested Seedance 2.0 on the same robotic task, costing $7 to generate.
Their conclusion: motion appears more realistic, and scene consistency has improved, though the overall difference isn't massive. The biggest shortcoming remains the mechanical hand/gripper, which exhibits strange repetitive opening and closing. The author speculates this is because such grippers are rare in online Franka datasets, causing the model to encounter an OOD (out-of-distribution) scenario.
Finally, they pose the question: is this performance "good enough" to be used for robot training?
