They are awful because there is no effort put into it. You're missing the point entirely with generative art. Generative art with care and intent is indiscernible from "real" art at this point. You just don't realize it.

Generative art with care and intent is art. The intent and care is the whole point. It is the difference between slop and art whether generative or not.

I completely agree and this is a very unpopular opinion outside of people who actually are artists.

The thing about art is that literally everything is a "valid creative direction." But that doesnt make everything immune from derision.

I don’t understand what your point is.

The point is that, at least presently, an algorithm lacks the creativity to meaningfully stimulate an intellectual person, and whatever excuse you give for the decisions that algorithm makes, you should never expect a human being to be more impressed with the algorithm than they are with their human peers.

I don't care that the results are technologically impressive, the automation of creativity is dystopian. As I watched these videos and tried to compare what different AIs can do with similar budgets, is struck me to how utterly soulless and unenjoyable this whole thing is.

AI has plenty of utility, but this isn't one of them. If anything, I want to see AI automate all of the tedious stuff so that human beings can focus more deeply on art and culture. Automating art and culture is anti-human.

I wonder how much worse this would be if instead of starting with a human-created song: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Uptown_Funk Start from an entirely AI generated song, and have an AI generated video. We apparently already have an example of such: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MWLLIjOTqkE

I always found the Severus Snape - ALWAYS (Live at Hogwarts) video to be really good for AI. The video was probably created by prompting for each scene, instead of letting the model generate the whole thing. It's a cool of example of what's possible nonetheless. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SlsEDkavoso

That's definitely not "let the AI do everything unsupervised", but many short scenes generated with probably much filtering, and then manually edited together.

It's interesting how the Harry Potter fanbase was one of the first to get on the AI video trend, but not too surprising as there was already plenty of HP fanfiction, and no doubt many who wanted to have them visualised.

Here's another channel with a ton of AI parody videos: https://www.youtube.com/@NeuralDerpMusic

Good creator of AI music videos (with human editing etc) is "ALFfx Visual DJ"

Example:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9kjUEan_fgM

Most of their videos have a similar retro-futurism look

> None of the music videos were great Glad they acknowledge this. Curious how much time in addition to tokens this costs. If you have to spend $25 and wait 45 minutes to get a basically unwatchable video, I'm not worried about indie film makers being replaced just yet...

This wasn’t possible even a year ago, with the speed of things changing and how much money is spent on movies is there really a doubt that someone will be able to make $100 million movie for less than $1 million in token spend?

> This wasn’t possible even a year ago

Just because it’s possible now, doesn’t mean it’s worth doing.
