Wave Forcing from DENG Lab at SJTU does streaming video generation at 134.8 FPS end to end on 8x H200s, a 7.07x speedup over one GPU. Code and weights are open.
Would you run a real-time video model on a rack of H200s, or wait for it to shrink to one card?

Have you seen the hashtag on GitHub!? So epic.
The community support has been incredible, and we’ve been blown away by the creativity and amazing apps being submitted.
We’re extending the submission deadline to November 3rd at 9 AM PT to give everyone a little more time to participate.
We value this community and love seeing what you’re building.
If we win, we all win. 🫡
It’s been so awesome seeing all of these submissions! Great work here 🔥
Introducing OpenCast Studio!
A free and open source character generation tool with both character swap and motion transfer built in!
A custom Krea 2 lora lets you generate funny characters, then Flux 3 generates an anchor, finally the new Pika H3 Flex model performs the swap or motion transfer.
It's composed of ComfyUI workflows under the hood and only uses open source models.
This is my submission for the #OpenSourceHiggsfield competition!

Show your @ComfyUI support here! Everyone wins with Open source.
@higgsfield_ai sent us a cease and desist last night, asking us to shut down our Open Source Higgsfield challenge.
Our read on why they sent it. When the apps people pay for can be rebuilt in the open in two weeks, that’s an uncomfortable thing for a closed platform to watch.
So here’s us reiterating our promise to every builder in the challenge and community, and we’re keeping it:
• The challenge stays open
• Final submissions close tomorrow, Oct 30
• Winners are announced Nov 6, with prizes paid as promised
You showed up for each other. We’re showing up for you.
If we win, we all win!
Comfy out 🫡

Last night, @higgsfield sent @ComfyUI a cease and desist (attached)
They want the Open Source Higgsfield challenge taken down within 48 hours.
Their argument is that our use of the Higgsfield name and that using their CEO's likeness is an infringement violation (man, the irony). Claiming that it makes the event look like Higgsfield is associated with it.
This couldn't be farther from the truth, which is that Higgsfield made a promise to open source its product and never did.
For the past two weeks, builders have been recreating popular closed apps as open workflows anyone can run.
So we asked our community to deliver where Higgsfield failed: apps in the open, built by the community, for the community. We've made it clear that the challenge is organized by ComfyUI and not affiliated with or endorsed by Higgsfield.
When we started Comfy, we made the community a promise. Our product stays open, free, and yours. We’ve kept it every day since, and one letter isn’t going to change that.
The challenge stays up. Comfy and open source will win!

Genjutsu -> OpenJutsu
We asked everyone to join us in building open-sourced apps.
Seemed fair to go first.
A few of us built OPENjutsu as a side project.
It’s fully open source, so it’s as much yours as it is ours. Run it on Comfy, run it locally, or plug in a paid model if you want higher quality.
Your #OpenSourceHiggsfield submissions are due October 30.

So Comfy Agent wrote this node inside ComfyUI to browse the open-source version of Higgsfield directly lol.
I will work on making every button link to an open-source version of the feature, based on the community submission, and share this node.
ping me if you are willing to collab on selecting the best oss alternatives. I have a doc below.
Higgsfield promised to open-source their entire platform. They didn’t.
Let's help them.
