I think you mean it's a technical problem. Language translation and screen size translation are both solving for the practical problem of reaching a wider audience and on more devices.
- babypuncher 2y agoSubtitles and dubs already solve the practical problem of making content produced in one language accessible in another, and in a non-destructive manner. This AI lipsyncing nonsense is more like the rash of colorized black and white movies that came out in the '80s, or the modern day scourge of 4:3 shows getting pan-and-scanned to 16:9. The "problems" these solve are viewers being closed-minded about watching movies and shows that don't have color or "look old". The final product is generally going to be inferior to the original.
- h0l0cube 2y agoMy pedantry—like most pedantry—was focused on the problem, not the solution. Ergo, you could accurately say "AI lipsyncing nonsense" is a highly-technical solution to a practical problem, and subtitles a pragmatic low-tech solution.
