I see the point at the moment on “low quality advertising”, but we are still far from high quality video generated for AI. It’s the equivalent of those cheap digital effects. They look bad for a Hollywood movie, but it allows students to shot their action home movies

You're looking at individual generations. These tools aren't for casual users expecting to 1-shot things. The value is in having a director, editor, VFX compositor pick and choose from amongst the outputs. Each generation is a single take or simulation, and you're going to do hundreds or thousands. You sift through that and explore the latent space, and that's where you find your 5-person Pixar. Human curated AI is an exoskeleton that enables small teams to replace huge studios.
