PHYSIX OBSERVATION

Low prices push AI video from gacha-style money-burning toward casual trial and error; creators dare to shoot a few more takes, and both output and creative density will rise. But 0.09 yuan per second is only a limited-time preview price. Whether the official version can hold this cost is the key to whether it can truly retain creators.
