I get why opportunists want to flood it with slop.
What I don’t get is why anyone would want to watch slop when there is plenty of real content made every day.
The "baby pushing random buttons on youtube" market is immense, highly profitable, and a permanent wild west.
On Sh*rts, you don't choose the content, the content chooses you.
I am skeptical about the extent "normal youtube" will be plagued by this, but mostly I am apathetic, and hope to hear about it as little as possible.
It's Boobs. Giant, slow motion, scantily clad, AI generated boobs.
What content would you rather people spend their time on?
Why do you think people should watch AI slop instead of actual creativity?
Some of the most popular films of last year include Venom: The Last Dance, Beetlejuice Beetlejuice, and Bad Boys: Ride or Die.
Actual creativity is much less popular, idky
Human attention is a finite resource. There aren't enough people to be interested in all this AI auto generated slop. If anything a deluge of AI-generated slop will make people more interested in focusing on humans they find interesting.
AI will kill the internet as a social platform.
It already is.
AI video I have seen (mostly on human channels which are debunking them) are pretty low quality.
I might be tempted if it was up to the standard of the lemmy AI communities
Did you watch the ones embedded in the article?
I can see this tech being useful for indie movie producers. It's "good enough" for that.
It's good for a lot of things. Even certain shots in high-budget films.
Mostly I just want to see filmmaking that isn't capital-intensive.
I really don't want to see it in high budget films, personally, because I believe they will find a way to monopolize it and take it way from everyone else. Won't be the first time...
