Startup claims a neuron-inspired software layer makes AI video 5x faster and 80% cheaper

The Biological Computing Co. is teaming up with AWS to sell a text-to-video model it says runs five times faster and 80% cheaper.
The trick is a tiny software layer derived from real nerve cells that reportedly adds less than 0.1% overhead to the base model. The startup won't disclose which model it's built on, and its claims remain unverified.
