There's more to making movies than generating moving images.

[–] [email protected] 9 points 1 year ago

Yeah, they'd have to generate text, music and speech as well -- who ever heard of something like that?

[–] [email protected] 8 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Of course, but remember where the tech was a year ago? Where would it be in a year from now?

Off the chart porn with tay tay on a plane I believe is the correct answer to this.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

Yeah I really feel bad for her, nobody deserves this

The first thing I'm generating when this thing matures is Tay Zonday (chocolate rain guy) dancing in actual chocolate rain.

As someone who has studied cinematography, I'm not worried about tools like this. Visual storytelling requires intention that AI can't provide. This will probably be fine for improv comedy with simple reaction shots, but those tend to lack photographic intent anyway.

Films like Children of Men and Drive, that tell their stories through visuals more than exposition, will still require a trained eye to craft for the foreseeable future.

A false sense of security is worse than no security at all.

When the AI workforce breaks through the arts and film industry, what makes you think you're the one holding the keys and calling the shots on AI? Simply because you studied cinematography?

The point is the scale of the impact will likely be substantial and many potentially will be displaced. I would argue you should be studying this shift rigorously instead of being dismissive to give yourself the advantage.

Idk, they can't stop hallucinating extra fingers yet. I've been running stable diffusion and llama locally for a while. I'm not worried about cinematography for the near future. And you're being a fear mongering dick. Bloooocked!

Yeah, I think this stuff is still a long ways off. I've worked with graphic designers to use AI for content and it's more miss than hit (and that's static images for things like icons/logos).

That's not even getting into the fact OpenAI was showing the creme of the crop. Sam Altman was apparently showing live examples on Twitter and they were much worse in comparison.

Hey, you do you, but a great example of being in denial and exactly what people should not be doing. Everyone should be thinking about how to reposition themselves to ride this technological wave to success, and not turn a blind eye and be washed away like the parent poster above.

"Near future" and "foreseeable future" is constrained only by imagination and can happen sooner than you think.

You must have struck a nerve or that user has other stuff going on. Several months ago AI was practically eating paste. It definitely has short comings now but the adaptive speed is definitely going to disrupt most markets. AI will be considering things that the users aren't aware of and have significantly more training than humans faster.

100%. The truth is hard to swallow but I've already seen people displaced by AI tech in other professions. It's no leap at all to think this could happen in the arts and film industry soon.

Also I don't understand the notion of "humans can do x so AI can't replace us". Fact is AI only needs to do 20-30% of what humans can do to put a ton of us out of a job. And it's a bit delusional to think one is immune just because they studied "cinematography".

Porn, fake political videos, and avoid paying for stock clips.

These are the main use-cases.

Also, killing time while waiting for the edibles to wear off.

The film industry could use some of the tools, like assisting in special effects with reduced costs. As long as it doesn't claw on the industry workers with an abusive contract, that is...

[–] [email protected] 12 points 1 year ago

Maybe now we can get a good ending to Game of Thrones...

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 year ago (1 children)

No, soon all AI will be paywalled and feature locked. Right now we are just getting a free taste so we get hooked while they refine it. There is no way capitalism will let us have so much power as individuals.

Hopefully FOSS can catch up or become even better than what they have.

THIS IS FUCKING MADNESS

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago

It was only a matter of time and I’m excited for it
