I'm an AI optimist. But AI video is probably the one thing that does depress me. Seeing that we can make anything visually, there's nothing that impresses me visually. I watch a video that two years ago I would've thought was really cool, and now my first thought is, "Yawn, is this AI?". Video, more than anything else, is the place where I really care if something is AI or not. If I could get a TikTok that had no AI…

Now you can have people producing videos without needing a crew of people.

I eventually picked one and opened the comments and the top comment was something like "This is obviously an AI video. Who watches this?" and the reply was along the lines of "me because I like seeing thieves get what's coming to them".
So you, like me, aren't interested in AI videos but I think there's a lot of people who don't care if it's real or not.
Thankfully, YouTube eventually stopped showing those to me. Now it thinks I'm interested in road rage videos. My YouTube feed outside of the three of four channels I've subscribed to is terrible.

you would watch a movie generated with the sterility of an LLM?
AI is already in a bunch of creative workflows. Just look at modern Photoshop. Selecting and hitting delete has AI infill for the background replacement. Creates can these video gen AI in various ways. There are some youtube channels of people using these in creative workflows that are really impressive, from mocap replacement, character insertion, background replacement, changing camera angle in post, animating/inse…
As such I always use this prompt as a test: "A video of a jenga brick tower falling over as a brick is removed. The physics of each brick must be realistic."
It gave me a video of where bricks suddenly disapper or morph into others[1]. The linked video is after 2-3 iterations of me insisting on realistic physics. If you are just glancing at this, you would believe it is realistic.
That said this is still very impressive and one more step towards .. IDK what. But I am a bit reasurred that at least my job won't be fully replaced with AI :)

Just curious - are you at all concerned about the legal implications of ai-generating property listing videos?
The legal risk probably lies solely with those who are selling the properties. They are responsible if the video misrepresents anything.
I think Hollywood is in for a rough era. The disruption is happening at break neck speeds.
