A cost breakdown of a 24/7 AI video livestream: running on fal costs about $3,450/day, while the same continuous stream on Seedance would exceed $40,000/day — roughly a 10x gap. fal generates 5-second clips in under 3 seconds and ranks #3 on Artificial Analysis' text-to-video leaderboard, suggesting near real-time, generate-as-you-play AI video is now feasible.
