LAION's Big Video Dataset Releases 10 Million Hours of Video, Research Use Only
LAION published the Big Video Dataset, built from 1.3 billion collected video URLs of which 80 million were successfully downloaded, totalling 10 million hours. It ships 55 million clips with synthetic video captions and 300 million extracted frames for image-text training, documented in arXiv 2608.24845 with code at LAION-AI/BVD. The license is research only and explicitly not for commercial use, which matters given the scale, so this is a reproducibility and safety-analysis resource rather than a training set for a product.
