The first short term application for this may be in online advertising. Cheap, short and low resolution clips that are only meant to grab attention and can be as exotic as you want, related to a product you want to sell. The advertiser cherry-picks from a pool of generated clips related to their query, so the hit and miss nature of these models won’t be a big problem.

Then they'll be A/B tested and possibly even without human moderation since you can filter bad content by just checking with CLIP what it contains.

Pornography. The first application will be pornography. The first mover who can surreptitiously replace cam girls doing stuff like drinking milk out of dog bowls while wearing dog costumes is going to make so much money from unsuspecting rubes who think they're actually paying strangers to degrade themselves.

  Unless compute costs drop to near free, it will always be cheaper to pay some desperate and/or "liberated" woman a few USD to do such things.

    That was the old porn paradigm. I think you're unaware of just how much some people make on onlyfans. It's far more than a few dollars. not to mention something like this will allow you to generate body types that are very rare, if not outright impossible, and you can animate them doing things that are also very rare, or outright impossible.

      Key is some. It’s a Pareto distribution. Perhaps synthetic porn will get there some day. But we’re far off from being able to do consistent scenes and the tools to create them.

  And video compression by extension. As for porn choreographer can express intent in video, put it through NN to decompose into vector representation, add the girl to the blender and put back through.

  Definitely. Porn sites tend to be leaders in many ways. Seen it in UI/UX features. iirc pornhub/mindgeek had the thumbnail timeline scrub and timeline viewing hotspots before YouTube and other video sites.
