> the chatgpt garbagisation of the web
Eh... it's already started on YouTube. There's a whole new genre of movie content that has chatgpt summarize the movie while they play 15 minutes of clips. It's higher effort garbagisation because someone needs to at least do some low effort video editing.
- echelon 4y agoFull video automation is not going to take long. I'm working on systems to automate 100% of video workflows (in a good way). We recently launched a 24/7 news channel: https://fakeyou.com/news https://fakeyou.com/news
- EForEndeavour 4y agoWhat do you mean "in a good way"? How do you control whether someone using your video workflow automation uses it for good (whatever that is) or not?
- echelon 4y agoHow does Adobe assure this? Or any tool maker? Email has problems, yet the good and productive uses vastly outweigh the bad actors. The vast majority of systems humans use have benefit, otherwise they would be unwound by governments (eg. crypto). People want to be creative more than they want to be destructive. The destroyers will be moderated, just as they are in every system. I want a world where every kid can make their own Star Wars or Princess Mononoke and create more than Scorsese's entire career within a single year.

- echelon 4y ago"ought to be enough for anybody" If things stay the same as ever, this life will have been boring. I'm not cut out for another twenty years of smartphone incrementalism. Fuck the status quo. I don't live for "same". Everything in the world as it exists isn't enough. The future could be the most exciting thing if we dream and build it.

- barneygale 4y agoHave you considered a career in subsistence farming? You're likely to be less damaging to the world.
- echelon 4y agoI'm a filmmaker and love the arts more than you'll know. You're being incredibly sour, and I guarantee you that acting the way you do toward other humans (and yourself) subtracts way more from the universe. I feel sorry for you.
- maxbond 4y agoGP was rude & out of turn, but there's no need to be patronizing like that. You're engaging in the same behavior you're criticizing them for, putting toxicity into the community/universe.
- qwytw 4y agoYour future sounds pretty dystopian and very lonely though....

- JohnFen 4y agoThat's all well and good, but the question still stands -- what do you mean by "in a good way"? What differentiates a "good way" from a "bad way"?
- ramphastidae 4y agoDoesn’t seem to be working?
- mustacheemperor 4y agoI just tried to check out your 24/7 news channel and it is currently a twitch stream of a windows desktop wallpaper.
- mustacheemperor 4y agoWorking now! Pretty dang cool, too.
- xboxnolifes 4y agoFull video automation has been done for years. There is one infamous channel that automatically scrapes stack overflow posts and makes video versions of the questions.
- echelon 4y agoYeah, well, now we need to make it good. I want to put mocap and editing into this. Humans can tweak high level knobs, then dive into specifics.
- 8note 4y agoThat sounds quite similar to Grian's videos being published as books https://youtu.be/JypgASKSRZc https://youtu.be/JypgASKSRZc
