Hollywood and the film industry on red alert. Too bad. This is AGI.

The example video just looks like the highly produced art (TV, commercials, games) other people have created. I find it impossible to believe this wasn't trained on other people's work, and there is no protection for it. Terribly sad. A lack of original thinking is coming.

  > A lack of original thinking is coming. As with the arts, 99.9% of people can't use these models to express vision, get attention, or achieve distribution. The game is the same as it has always been. You still need hard work, taste, something important to say, the ability to articulate it, good timing, and luck. Nothing has changed. We can just build faster. What this does enable is for more to be created that caters to a wider variety of interests. It disrupts existing structures of capital allocation, production, and distribution and gives new players a chance to reshape the game. The bar will rise and people will still be running at the same pace on the treadmill. There will be more to see, but less time to see it.

  It is coming up with Seinfeld episodes even with voice overs. Unless it is trained to do so, don't think that would happen. This model is just around the corner from getting banned due to this copyright issue. (which i hope not)

Can't wait for netflix to be topped on unimaginative nonsense meant to have in the background while you scroll your phone.

Unlimited slop "content" to fill decomposed brain shaped vessels, the future is bright!

  Unfortunately Hollywood been feeding us human generated slop for a long time already. Transition won't be hard.

Eh, the technical examples are impressive. But normal people really don't like AI. And I don't think that's going to improve if we really start to see job displacement. I see a future here for digital advertising, for design mock-ups, for political propaganda, for robotics model training/world simulation, for fan movies, etc. But the film industry is struggling to get eyeballs and butts in seats already; using a tool that most people inside-and-outside the industry loathe isn't the answer to fixing that. At most, I could see it used for pre-viz/pre-production work in Hollywood.
