What happened
Xingyu Liu will present Doki, a text-first tool for authoring generative video, at UIST 2026 in Detroit next week, where it received a Best Paper Honorable Mention. The post is mainly a video trailer, so we couldn't review the demo itself. Original post on X Section: Papers & Research
Why it matters
For researchers and creators working with generative video, Doki points to an interface approach where text drives video authoring. Watch for the full paper and any hands-on demo, since the current signal rests on a trailer and an award mention rather than a tested product.
