Ai can be used to make dope art ONLY if youre already a dope artist imo

Random ppl using these tools will just make generic bullshit

F*** AI lol

Nah i was so hype for ai video generation years ago i wanted to edit music videos and do special effects

But its way too clumsy and not precise compared to actually learning software. Also f*** AI

F*** AI and anybody that love 'em

Dont get me wrong its very impressive software, i just hate the potential for displacing humans from their jobs and how it could water down artforms

Ok u win i would watch this

Exactly what i mean. This is how a new genre is created. People who have passion taking things that are considered slop and making true art

How is it taking away people’s jobs? If anything its democratizing art away from gatekeepers

I guess when ppl say that, they mean that people who are explicitly "in those positions" already now have less leverage to fight for their wage I guess. Especially if an armchair critic can get the hang of prompting in a few weeks

The problem with AI is that it has the potential to do insane work in the hands of a very smart person.

But if you hand an AI tool to a person of average or below average competence it will often degrade the quality of work.

The special effects in movies are looking worse because people are relying on new technology for special effects but can barely make use of them.

It’s the same reason why all the new video games have a the same blurry filter out on the distance to “clean up the background” (a lazy ass design workaround).

Plus AI generative special effects are not the end all be all. The physics based special effects systems like the one used in the Avatar movie offers better results but requires a certain level of technical knowledge which most of these people lack in the field

well if i can cut 80% of my team because i dont need writers, cameramen, VFX artists etc thats going to lead to less jobs and more competition (duh)

how is it a new genre if its s*** you've already seen but worse

some of you have got to be trolling haha i fell for it that was a nice one

I think its good from a social perspective because it moves entertainment away from being monopolized by corporations

Feel like for actual filmmaking, the thing you need to look at is what Jia Zhangke managed to put together in a couple days.

Jia is one of the all time great Chinese directors, has a distinct voice and focus on China's rapid development and the problems stemming from it, and said he'd try out Seedance to see how it worked. This was his result and its not only a story you can follow, but retains his cinematic style pretty well, while serving as a reflection of AI in a convo between "AI Jia" and "real Jia" (both are AI) and reflections of his previous work

i think the idea that AI can do everything and theres no need to focus on traditional methods is very shortsighted, people who learn how to merge the two will be the most successful

ur right because that thing will actually make money

So goes the law of the market

Nah, if anything I just frel that it will force studios to reduce budgets and focus more on quality (hopefully) because rn were getting ballooned budget films that dont break even and are ass

AI loves this zoom in zoom out thing
It’s very impressive and will only get better but I’m not watching s*** without real human performances

well no this wont happen lol

If you willingly consume AI media of any kind I consider you a lesser human I'm sorry

It's still monopolized by corps because there's no true way (yet) to build your own "AI" that doesn't funnel usage costs back to them, right? You're still using their API

Fair

Its my hopeful guess but at the end of the day they gon cut costs on vfx and cgi stuff
