The future of ai generated content and entertainment is going to be wild! How long before we have ~unlimited high quality entertainment? Before an AI can generate infinite episodes of your favorite show, podcast, comedian, and so on. Going to be an interesting thing to watch unfold.

You’ll get this when you have access to unlimited energy ?

We've had practically unlimited entertainment for most purposes for at least the last couple of decades. There's far more e.g. TV being produced than anyone could watch in one lifetime.

It's still finitely constrained by human production capacity. Consider having AI alter an existing show to suit your tastes. That is unlimited. Don't like how the scene is lit? Have it changed. Don't like an annoying character? Have them removed.

It's hard to say because even a model like GPT-3 is limited in its ability to generate a textual story that remains coherent over time. When you're talking about generating video, you need to have lots of story and visual details remaining coherent over a very long time horizon. Generally speaking, I think this is an area where deep neural networks are fairly weak and symbolic AI shines. It's much easier to program a…

Having a story remain coherent over time is not a prerequisite of Hollywood blockbusters.

That could be the job description of the editor of the New Yorker

New job title: Chief Editor, AI Content Bonus points for outsourcing that to AI.

Upvote, because of the "bonus" sentence.

A minor note is that OpenAI does specifically forbid generation of images of human faces from DALL-E 2: I wonder why that last image didn't hit the content filter.

What if someone specifically asked for faces that can bypass the filter? Is this AI its own adversary that filters its own output? Or is that another, better AI?

Right. The Transformers comes to mind.
