Is that short I linked content or art? It cost time and money but it’s vastly less than what it would take to create traditionally. Without AI, that guy might never have been able to create that, the “the sake of his soul”. I want “working people” to be able to give it a try with whatever tools, including AI. Become directors or authors of “holonovels”. AI allows for a new type of art medium.
There will always be content or slop. Always people who just want to sell garbage or people who want to be creative and think they can but are no good. But the tools empower both. A lot of content on youtube is scary garbage, like even before AI there was stuff that genuinely made me horrified, but that is an issue with moderation and not listening to the demands of the community. But there is so much amazing videos too which wouldn’t have been possible or found an audience without the platform and the tools (e.g. cheap video cameras, video editing software).
PS: I do wish for standards or regulations so it’s clearly marked which parts are generated and which parts are human made.
I’m not talking about the end product. I’m talking about the process of creation. That is what art is for.
I’d rather someone make a shitty video by themselves or with their friends than just type some text into a computer and it spits out stolen work that is statistically likely to match the request. It’s soulless.
I’m not talking about economics. I’m talking about creating art for the sake of your own soul.
You are talking about content. That’s the disconnect.
Well, economics always enters into it.
