    Boo, cloud.

    Anyway: this is going to destroy Hollywood. Not artists. Hollywood. The industry artists rely on, to turn ideas into things you can stream. This technology replaces the part that costs a billion dollars. Anyone can storyboard their thing, shot by shot, and ideally feed in some fingerpaint-y composition alongside each page of explanation. That is now enough to get back a finished product… directly. No sets, no actors, no modeling, no rendering.

    Having a show is gonna be like having a webcomic. I.e. - more work than people think, but easy enough that anyone can do it badly.

    I mean yeah, technically lol. Lmao even. Perhaps a rofl is in order? Changing the terms of the deal when you have an effective monopoly is a powerful tool when combined with access journalism it seems.

      …or you can just keep watching videos from human creators like you have done so far. If the content you’re consuming is already the kind that’s difficult to tell from AI in the first place then not much will change.

        That defeats the entire purpose of YouTube and other algorithm-based content discovery and publishing services.

          Personally, I watch the channels from the creators I like and slowly grow my channels through their recommendations. My bookmark goes straight to the subscription page and have uBlock filters for all the unwanted recommendations.

          I couldn’t stand having an algorithm decide what I watch.

        Youtube’s algorithm is very good at showing you videos similar to what you’ve watched previously. If you watch dross, you’ll get more dross.

          I do wonder whether the algorithm understands sarcasm. A while back, I watched a video about some movie bombing, something objectively bad like Morbius, and they joked that the movie wasn’t actually failing for all of the obvious reasons, but because it was “too woke”. They didn’t really believe that, they were just making fun of people who say that about movies. Still, for the next couple of weeks I had to keep marking channels as “Don’t recommend” because they were all unironic right-wing rage-bait about the woke agenda. I don’t know for certain that that’s why I suddenly got all those recommendations, but that was my best guess.

            I’m certain that video probably got a lot of likes from folks who didn’t get the irony which is probably why the algorithm associated you watching it with that crowd. (Also I’m really sus about the whole “joking about being a hateful prick” industry, but I’ll assume your assessment is spot on here.)

    Have been playing with this inside Illustrator all day. Still a little glitchy. A couple years from now, though, not sure anyone will need commodity stock icons or images.

    However, those able to design and build a consistent look and feel across apps/web/video/physical will still be needed, and likely worth even more.

      I think you are underestimating the ability of the generative ai tools to build to a consistent style and theme. Sure it’s a problem now but not an insurmountable one by todays measures, so I’m assuming Adobe will have it sorted in a few years too
