You know I had to do an “Arrow in the Knee” video. 🙂
This isn’t even the new Gen3 model. And, it’s pretty good. But it isn’t a “movie” it’s an 8sec clip. There’s no audio. So, while you get the idea of what’s going on, it’s essentially a fancy animated gif, right?
It’s fun to play with generative tools and create novel audio, images and videos. But there is also a practical business use for these tools. Like with the next clip I generated. Those business use cases are what is driving rapid advancement and funding for AI.
Say I was writing an article about hardshell tacos. Even without words or sound, looping this video could add more interest to the article versus a still photo. The difference being it actually illustrates assembling the taco vs implying it.
Yes AI is; and will continue to replace demand for skilled creators. But it will also create new opportunities. And, for those that can blend the skill of AI prompting with their real world skills, there is likely a bright future. Those that don’t adapt will eventually be the ones creating novel nostalgic content. Like people who use film cameras today.
There is nothing wrong with that. For most creatives it’s a hobby, not a job. You don’t have to pick a team. You can just enjoy creating.
