2:45 I don’t think using AI upscalers is a good idea for historical photos. These upscalers are good for creative photos, but they’re not good for historical photos. This is because they change the original photo by adding stuff to it that was not originally there, and this produces misleading results. It’s important that documentary photos remain true to life, without false details added to them.
And if they are not clearly labeled as AI, they will be fed back into the public, up until a point where nobody can tell, what was made up and what was the original. Absolutely irresponsible behavior
True! It's not recommended if your intent is to provide a truly accurate showing (if the upscaler change anything). Perhaps a good example may be upscalling an old painting or a faux photo so there isn't any confusion. Or, making sure to append the scene with captions that say "AI photo representation"
This!! AI made stuff us already showing up in searches for news and historical images. Sure use it to clean up old movies but not 'enhancing' historical images
As film-makers I think it is important to respect the term 'documentary' too and not use it in this context. There is a long history of documentary film-making with underlying principles of ethics and authenticity. A.i. enhanced images are not documents. If people can't go to the source of a historical image to get a clear version, then better to use an entirely different one and label it as illustration. I think it's possible to move into this new era of exciting film-making while not throwing away any sense of integrity
Thank you so much for making this video. I'm a screenwriter and I started animating my own short screenplays last summer with the help of AI, but I was waiting for AI to get to the point where I could create consistent characters before I animated any more of them, or before I tried animating a full-length screenplay. Finally.. it's available! I can't wait to try Artflow. And I will definitely be watching your "Learn AI film making" videos. Thanks again...this was exactly what I was looking for.
Screenwriter background caught my attention because I am currently associated with a screenwriter seeing what she can do with my novel. My observation from being involved in book self-publishing and recording my own songs / music, the availability of these creative technologies end up with millions of self-published books on Amazon, almost all of which sell hardly any copies. And the same for music, millions of self-recorded songs but not many rising beyond a local band. So do you think it will be any different once SORA is available to all, birthing a million self-made movies few actually watch? It seems there is always the professional marketable level and the millions of wanna bes.
I wonder what the endgame is with AI. A common argument I see proponents of this tech spout is that it'll free humans up to do other things. What other things exactly? You're seeing almost in real time people becoming completely redundant. Until now, seeing a beautiful piece of art was at least impressive because you knew a human had invested years of their lives perfecting a skill to then showcase that to others. It's now a march into total meaninglessness. Cool, I guess.
Interesing perspective - but like any technology we're not sure if there is an 'endgame' but rather a constant evolution. AI technology will contineu to be more mainstream and weave it's way into all aspects of life.
What is wrong with the people arguing ai is a good thing because with its help people can focus on other more important things? Their argument is basically like: Wow, i can't wait to live in a world where ai does all the art for us so we finally have the time to do other stuff like working in exploitive 9 to 5 grunt-jobs for big corporations. Ai does not bring freedom nor does it "democratise" art. It just turns the thing that is the most purest form of human expression into soulles automated content. What a time to be alive...
I think it will be a win for artist. Corporates will invest a lot of time in money developing these models thinking that it would reduce profits, but in the end it will become a tool for actual artists. Tools can take you anywhere, but creativity is priceless. A quote by Henry Ford, a car manufacturer goes something along the lines of “if you asked the people what they wanted, they would’ve asked for better horses.” In a somewhat weird interpretation, companies are building “better horses” not realizing that the tools they make will be used by artists to make “cars.”
I cannot afford a staff of a dozen artists, nor do I have the time to do the work of a dozen artists. That means I can either use AI to be a creative director of original comic books and animated series, or simply never EVER do any of that at all. AI art tools are the single greatest advancements in the “democratization” of this field that has ever happened.
@@ClintJohnsonWriter you are aware that you can also work with other people to create projects you are not able to all by yourself? The team doesn't even have to be that huge. It is not like there is noone you can get together with to create art with. I worked on a lot of projects in the past and many of them where just hobbyproject with a bunch of random people from discord. It always was a pleasant experience sharing each others knowledge and learning from each other. For every programm a corporation uses there are free alternatives like blender, krita or unrealengine/godot which are powerfull tools if you know how to use them. A qualified team of three can easily create a decent game or shortfilm without relying on ai.
If the entire life around us is already more and more a deep fake and it's just starting with the blatant things. soon you won't know what's real and what's not real anyway. AI avatars look and act like real people, no one can tell whether an artwork is real or mid-journey, novels are already being written entirely by AI. Who knows: maybe we'll all be living on a holodeck by now.
9:48 Artflow seems interesting. I’d love to learn more about what features it has, and get updated on how it develops. I’m looking for an AI tool that can pose multiple consistent characters together. Hopefully, it will be a tool that allows the user control to create the exact scene they have in mind.
Just depends on the context of the doc. If it is creating new meaning or story, not good. If it is just upresing and clarifying without implying something false, no prob. In that respect it is similar to colorizing black and white footage. Not good enough to be considered first source, but good enough for illustration.
On the surface, Magnific looks good, but if you notice, it completely invents details that were never there in the first place, which imo is not good. Look at the soldier at the front on the left at 3:38 and you’ll see it completely changes his posture and his face.
i'm interested in when AI can take a story and make a video or film out of it with actors and scenes. Hopefully let me adit or create the avators for the main characters and let the AI randomly pick the extras. Then let me go in and reshoot scenes if need be. I would be the director. "I need a little more emotion from her."
Yes definitely, AI-powered license plate recognition is already being used in many countries, and with the current rate that AI is advancing it will keep improving every day... kinda crazy right
all still within the uncanny valley if you have any notion of body language, voice inflection language, or idea of functionality. however, one thing i see happening is that people see the real world and interact with real people less and less and we lose the ability to see the distinction.
Very fitting for horror "movies", then. Not my cup of tea, as it were, but leveraging that subtle wrongness and inherent body horror of the Uncanny Valley seems to make pragmatic sense.
@@curiousrefuge keeping in mind that AI attributes meaning to things (for now at least) based on the human meaning that has been communicated to it, there are several things I see contributing here: 1) humans in the USA continue to get worse and worse at communication 2) humans will progressively attribute less and less human perspective... and more a derived and limited meaning as part of a human-ai feedback loop. 3) as experience with ai generated approximation or reality exceeds experience with real reality, the actual meanings of things in reality will be lost as a meaning humans will attribute to ai generation. Different from number 2 in that experiences simply aren't there to be replaced.

I think all AI creative/art apps and companies should be forced to source the material they are stealing or 'scraping' from the internet. I still feel strongly that most of it - if not all is just stealing existing work without permission. Also more importantly - what is the ultimate purpose of all of this? Why is there so much emphasis on AI doing creative work? It's one of the main differentiators in what it means to be humans - we are creative. Again, why so much emphasis on something we are already uniquely good at - plus my stealing comment earlier ... The best use case for AI for our species moving forwards would be things like finding a cure for cancer or discovering new energy methods - you could have those football fields of computers focusing on things like that vs creating rip-off art from a freaking text prompt. Honestly wtf are we doing? Again, what is the ultimate end goal of all this intensive focus on AI art and creativity????? someone give a real answer.
This type of technology is empowering people to start many creative projects that weren't possible before. In 2024 it is likely we will see measures in place that protect artist work in the legal system. It will be interesting to see how it plays out!
I feel the same. I look at this and think, ok, but imagine if we used AI to figure out how to save our planet, considering we are destroying our actual living environment at an alarming rate. But no, we're creating fake people that look and sound real instead. So damn creepy. Not a fan.
as a viewer I would much rather see the higher res scan of the civil war photo because as a doc, that's what I'm trusting to see. I'm going into a historic doc with the assumption that everything is actual and not altered. if you look at the expressions of the faces, the ai does its best but fails. sounds like a small difference but we hard wired to see peoples faces and in a historic doc, we are taking notes of the faces and expressions in the photos we are shown to help build a better idea of what it was like back then. using ai in this way messes up that experience. great video though!!
We totally agree. In the case of using AI, it should be treated very similar to when documentaries use "reenactments" and they have words on the screen that clearly say what it is.
I wish you did a AI video were you gave all the information from a lowbudget director like Reinert Kiil. Feed it with the features from the director and see what it will produce on the other hand. Its more enjoyable than doing the more mainstream stuff :) Because then AI can have something fun to put together.
Everyone will have everything. It’s interesting how every developer in the world is making the same tools, while trying to make a killer app. Where are we going? Everyone doing the same thing looking the same way. Yipes!
@@curiousrefuge don’t get me wrong, I’m incredibly optimistic. I guess I only shared the one sided possibility of the downside. Possibly a trigger response to you gleefully sharing the a one sided view of the possibilities. Art without critique and point of view is wallpaper. We will have to work doubly hard to not turn our existence into wall paper that we pay for on the walls of someone else’s mansion. Why would I be wary? Oh I dunno… Google, zuckerberg and now Sam and the crew springing all this on humanity without a thought about how we will all win. You know, where humans are actually the first thought, rather than how much money they can make off of us. Because you and I both know that’s what all of this is about - them using us. I’m not pessimistic- I am an observant steward of curious optimism. With great power comes great (sing it with me) responsibility. The boy’s light has burned so very very brightly - let’s not loose sight - that these are our lives they are toying with as we follow the shiny ball. Optimism isn’t quite the issue or the argument - care for humanity is. We’ve been down this road before Neo… or perhaps you’re new here?
Ai is going to make the best aaa games one day. Instead of games in decades of production we will generate model and world assets and save tons of time and money
Yay happy to see a new video happy new year.. to think we just started 2024 n so many amazing things happening... cant wait to see all new tools coming in 2024 in AI just wish there was a way to have all tools one place w a package price lol wouldnt that be cool lol and love how more options for easier consistebt character creation abailable
We live in a time where everything is possible to learn online...and people still want to take shortcuts and be lazy. It's crazy to me but life is about the journey not the goal!
Just created my first videoclip with Artflow. Thats amazing folks. If you combine artflow with runway I am sure the results can be amazing. And the way is clear, soon we all can make AI movies rather easy
What's the point of taking a course on ai animation if one year later (if you're lucky) another ai tech could obliterate what you've been working on? Not being an ass**le it's a real question. Because the speed rate of new stuff it's a little overwhelming.
That’s a totally valid point. I think lifelong learning is going to have to be a part of our processes going forward. Work will likely be 75% work and 25% education.
None of these things are free, which means that they are benefiting off of assets we have all given to the internet. Meaning, it should be free because we all own the data that's being used to make the AI work.
If Bad people in Hollywood get caught, the A.I. should cast them in films as themselves or the villains, but for everyone else there should be a consent form. Have the Pizzagate and Epstein Actors play Themselves. 😂🤣
Have the Bad Actors, who were involved with Epstein be the Villains, borrow their talent throw them out and fire them afterwards. The A.I. can cast them as Villains only.
Does anyone else find this all pretty creepy and unsettling? AI is basically a Pandora's box that is going to make us question reality like never before. Replacing real humans with artificially created humans until we can't tell the difference. It's fascinating and incredibly impressive, but I don't share this guy's excitement at all. More like a morbid curiosity for what the future holds.
We totally understand your point of view. And this technology is very disruptive. But given that AI will be here in all aspects of our lives, we are constantly looking for the positive use cases and we believe AI + Human emotion will create the best content (not just AI).
the dreaded 'white paper', ive give up bookmarking them, some to just seem to sit there for eternity never amounting to anything. WE WANT SOLUTIONS gern dam it!!! lol
Thank you for the information, but you need to do a better job of sharing the actual sources of the videos you show. E.g. “Text to Motion” doesn’t tell us how to find the service you showed. Also, some may find it fun to guess which image to video app was used, but it’s far more beneficial to let us know in the same video, if education really is your goal.
@@curiousrefugeI did check the description but didn’t scroll far enough apparently. Apologies. 🙏🏼 Still, for convenience and comprehension, it would be nice to have them in one section, versus two. And my point still stands about the “guess the video generator” game.
I don't get it though.... The Magninif upgrade of the Civil War is HORRIBLE! People went missing, caps became wide, soft, Musketeer hats, some hade French caps from first world war, I mean... What?!
We certainly don't suggest you use it for all cases, especially if the photo is needed to be accurate. And in any event we suggest having a caption on the bottom that says "enhanced with ai" or something along those lines to make sure the audience knows :)
@@curiousrefuge experience won’t count for anything anymore, I said it on another video, the shit person in your Uni class will now be as good as the best. And as someone else pointed out…this is the worst it will ever look. Thanks for the video
We agree that a human element is needed for a movie to be impactful (whether AI, CGI, or not). Soon the tools will be advanced enough to make it easier for artists to inject human emotion. However, there are plenty of good examples of this already - please check out our gallery and see :)
ok so a bunch of new tech is being summed up under the "fashion term" AI and sold to people! I wonder sometimes if people are even aware what "Intelligence" means, let alone the Artificial variant of it. P.S. were you aware that AI existed nearly as long as Computers existed? there was a game called "Pac Man" long time ago. In this game, there were "ghost creatures" who had an AI that would seek out and eliminate the player character! thank god they did not become self aware right?
Using tools such as Magnific on historical photos in documentaries automatically questions the honesty, credibility and ethics of their authors. This can get pretty problematic in my opinion.
...and using anachronic, generated images is the antithesis of a documentary :D So, no, VERY BAD idea to use generated hallucinations in a documentary!
Magnefic gives details by literally inventing them. These details falsify reality. Upressing by inventing details on an old photo is IMHO at least questionable.
AI is great but the speed of innovation is now a new problem.. there is a group of us who are still trying to learn the recent tools.. but now those tools are nearly obsolete 🤷🏾♂️🤷🏼♀️ Like why do anything if what you are trying to master wont be useful in a matter of months.
It's true - the innovation is super fast. Feel free to join our free discord community where we try and consolidate and help people understand the best tools to use!

I think all AI creative/art apps and companies should be forced to source the material they are stealing or 'scraping' from the internet. I still feel strongly that most of it - if not all is just stealing existing work without permission. Also more importantly - what is the ultimate purpose of all of this? Why is there so much emphasis on AI doing creative work? It's one of the main differentiators in what it means to be humans - we are creative. Again, why so much emphasis on something we are already uniquely good at - plus my stealing comment earlier ... The best use case for AI for our species moving forwards would be things like finding a cure for cancer or discovering new energy methods - you could have those football fields of computers focusing on things like that vs creating rip-off art from a freaking text prompt. Honestly wtf are we doing? Again, what is the ultimate end goal of all this intensive focus on AI art and creativity????? someone give a real answer.
This type of technology is empowering people to start many creative projects that weren't possible before. In 2024 it is likely we will see measures in place that protect artist work in the legal system. It will be interesting to see how it plays out!
I feel the same. I look at this and think, ok, but imagine if we used AI to figure out how to save our planet, considering we are destroying our actual living environment at an alarming rate. But no, we're creating fake people that look and sound real instead. So damn creepy. Not a fan.
Leonardo Ai already does this detail scaling. I use it a lot from images created elsewhere.
Good point!
ARMY OF THE GOLDEN SLAVE - AI MOVIE CHAPTER 3 IS 🔥🔥🔥
Glad you enjoyed that!
Have you tried FinalFrame AI? Well worth a try and they have an upcoming UI update very soon.
We'll give it a shot!
AI Movie Stars or AI Movie Star is a great brand to own. Its the future. Who owns them is on top.
Sounds like Disney would be on top then ;)
as a viewer I would much rather see the higher res scan of the civil war photo because as a doc, that's what I'm trusting to see. I'm going into a historic doc with the assumption that everything is actual and not altered. if you look at the expressions of the faces, the ai does its best but fails. sounds like a small difference but we hard wired to see peoples faces and in a historic doc, we are taking notes of the faces and expressions in the photos we are shown to help build a better idea of what it was like back then. using ai in this way messes up that experience. great video though!!
We totally agree. In the case of using AI, it should be treated very similar to when documentaries use "reenactments" and they have words on the screen that clearly say what it is.
I would love to mess with the ai and move like I was a rapper while talking about physics. Lol
That would be cool :)

What AI program was the peter Jackson Zelda film made with?
Midjourny, Runway, Pika Labs
All of this is very impressive but also terrifying, the cons of AI will far outweigh the pros sooner than we think
Agree to disagree but AI will certainly disrupt many industries!
Is there a link to the 3D modeling tool from image? The twitter link has not access to the actual website or tool 😢
I'm afraid that's all we have at this time!
meta has brought so many innovations that's crazy props to them
True!
Pika always likes to zoom in
True - Pika tends to zoom in a lot.
I wish you did a AI video were you gave all the information from a lowbudget director like Reinert Kiil. Feed it with the features from the director and see what it will produce on the other hand. Its more enjoyable than doing the more mainstream stuff :) Because then AI can have something fun to put together.
Haha that's an interesting concept. We'll look into it
Everyone will have everything. It’s interesting how every developer in the world is making the same tools, while trying to make a killer app. Where are we going? Everyone doing the same thing looking the same way. Yipes!
We are more optimistic about the future :) We appreciate your perspective though!
@@curiousrefuge don’t get me wrong, I’m incredibly optimistic. I guess I only shared the one sided possibility of the downside. Possibly a trigger response to you gleefully sharing the a one sided view of the possibilities.
Art without critique and point of view is wallpaper. We will have to work doubly hard to not turn our existence into wall paper that we pay for on the walls of someone else’s mansion. Why would I be wary? Oh I dunno… Google, zuckerberg and now Sam and the crew springing all this on humanity without a thought about how we will all win. You know, where humans are actually the first thought, rather than how much money they can make off of us. Because you and I both know that’s what all of this is about - them using us. I’m not pessimistic- I am an observant steward of curious optimism.
With great power comes great (sing it with me) responsibility. The boy’s light has burned so very very brightly - let’s not loose sight - that these are our lives they are toying with as we follow the shiny ball. Optimism isn’t quite the issue or the argument - care for humanity is. We’ve been down this road before Neo… or perhaps you’re new here?
3d modeling with AI now means textured blob :D
Soon the technology will advance to a better blob :)

maybe i'm impatient, but none of these seem very usable for high quality projects yet
There is still quite a bit of room for improvement but we are so excited for what 2024 will bring :)
@@curiousrefuge totally agree!

Have you worked with moonvalley (discord)
Yes! Very interesting results from Moonvalley
@@curiousrefuge would you be able to do a comparison as that currently is a free discord version
The new Meta features are no doubt inspired by the 1995 movie "Strange Days"
Looks like it, doesn't it!
Ai is going to make the best aaa games one day. Instead of games in decades of production we will generate model and world assets and save tons of time and money
We agree!
bro… how does this man have 884,000 runway credits……
affiliate credits + sponsorship credits + own bought creds
:)
The only problem with AI movies is I don't want to watch them.
so, it's not problem of AI movies - it's your problem, lol.
Like CGI in movie, more AI will be injected to mainstream movies very soon.
Yay happy to see a new video happy new year.. to think we just started 2024 n so many amazing things happening... cant wait to see all new tools coming in 2024 in AI just wish there was a way to have all tools one place w a package price lol wouldnt that be cool lol and love how more options for easier consistebt character creation abailable
That would be amazing! 2024 is going to be big :)
I grew up in the 80s and watched Night Rider thus I would love to name mine Kitt and give him an upper class British accent.
That would be cool!
Magnific looks solid but the fact that we can’t even test it once is lame
Make sure to follow their social channels, they release testing days for people to try it out!
We live in a time where everything is possible to learn online...and people still want to take shortcuts and be lazy.
It's crazy to me but life is about the journey not the goal!
The best content, regardless of how it's made, will always rise to the top.
@@curiousrefuge that's not true lol ... Propel will always look at the effort in the long run
Just created my first videoclip with Artflow. Thats amazing folks. If you combine artflow with runway I am sure the results can be amazing. And the way is clear, soon we all can make AI movies rather easy
Congrats on making your first clip! And thanks for watching :)
Probably late to the Party: 1. Stable 2. Runway 3. I2V 4. Pika
What's the point of taking a course on ai animation if one year later (if you're lucky) another ai tech could obliterate what you've been working on? Not being an ass**le it's a real question. Because the speed rate of new stuff it's a little overwhelming.
That’s a totally valid point. I think lifelong learning is going to have to be a part of our processes going forward. Work will likely be 75% work and 25% education.
The meta feature is the like minority report movie
Looks cool, right?!
No one can stop technological progress, it is inherit and none of us would have been born without it.
Fair point!
Pika free now only gives you 3 daily generations
True!
Now SORA came up and shatters everyone
It will be a while, don't count out the others yet :)
Much thanks for the update,maybe we should call ai = automation interface ..😁👍#gunendra
Our pleasure!
None of these things are free, which means that they are benefiting off of assets we have all given to the internet. Meaning, it should be free because we all own the data that's being used to make the AI work.
We appreciate the perspective!

Magnific is a bit pricey for what they offer. $390 for 1600 photos.
True - but the results are quite fascinating at the moment!
If Bad people in Hollywood get caught, the A.I. should cast them in films as themselves or the villains, but for everyone else there should be a consent form. Have the Pizzagate and Epstein Actors play Themselves. 😂🤣
That's an interesting plot twist!
Have the Bad Actors, who were involved with Epstein be the Villains, borrow their talent throw them out and fire them afterwards. The A.I. can cast them as Villains only.
Borrow their talents and fire them afterwards. They can only be cast as the villains with A.I.
All amazing!
Thanks!
Your channel name is Dope, your lighting is on point, you look nice .. and you push out content quality. Who are you?
Thanks so much for the compliments!
Ai actors / actresses no red carpet celebration😅. Only in cyber pixel world celebration. No poses live photo shoot by journalist 😂
Haha could this be the end of a red carpet events?
Does anyone else find this all pretty creepy and unsettling? AI is basically a Pandora's box that is going to make us question reality like never before. Replacing real humans with artificially created humans until we can't tell the difference. It's fascinating and incredibly impressive, but I don't share this guy's excitement at all. More like a morbid curiosity for what the future holds.
We totally understand your point of view. And this technology is very disruptive. But given that AI will be here in all aspects of our lives, we are constantly looking for the positive use cases and we believe AI + Human emotion will create the best content (not just AI).
the dreaded 'white paper', ive give up bookmarking them, some to just seem to sit there for eternity never amounting to anything. WE WANT SOLUTIONS gern dam it!!! lol
Hehe we understand the sentiment!
Thank you for the information, but you need to do a better job of sharing the actual sources of the videos you show. E.g. “Text to Motion” doesn’t tell us how to find the service you showed.
Also, some may find it fun to guess which image to video app was used, but it’s far more beneficial to let us know in the same video, if education really is your goal.
Did you check the description for all the links and sources?
@@curiousrefugeI did check the description but didn’t scroll far enough apparently. Apologies. 🙏🏼 Still, for convenience and comprehension, it would be nice to have them in one section, versus two. And my point still stands about the “guess the video generator” game.
I don't get it though.... The Magninif upgrade of the Civil War is HORRIBLE! People went missing, caps became wide, soft, Musketeer hats, some hade French caps from first world war, I mean... What?!
We certainly don't suggest you use it for all cases, especially if the photo is needed to be accurate. And in any event we suggest having a caption on the bottom that says "enhanced with ai" or something along those lines to make sure the audience knows :)
WTF!!! I can't take all this anymore, its just fucking nuts
It's crazy, right?!
@@curiousrefuge experience won’t count for anything anymore, I said it on another video, the shit person in your Uni class will now be as good as the best. And as someone else pointed out…this is the worst it will ever look. Thanks for the video
His mustache is also AI.
Hahah it's not but that's funny :)
pretty darn good drinking game
What were the game rules :) ?
Movie is all about emotion , the long as real human acting is beautiful . without human there is no emotion then it's sucks
We agree that a human element is needed for a movie to be impactful (whether AI, CGI, or not). Soon the tools will be advanced enough to make it easier for artists to inject human emotion. However, there are plenty of good examples of this already - please check out our gallery and see :)
double mouthed dog is good
;)
ok so a bunch of new tech is being summed up under the "fashion term" AI and sold to people!
I wonder sometimes if people are even aware what "Intelligence" means, let alone the Artificial variant of it.
P.S. were you aware that AI existed nearly as long as Computers existed? there was a game called "Pac Man" long time ago. In this game, there were "ghost creatures" who had an AI that would seek out and eliminate the player character! thank god they did not become self aware right?
Thanks for your engagement, Harry.
The thing with the chineese tool is that they wouldn't care about using whatever to train their AI
Interesting point!
I still prefer real actors
In 10 years..but after 10 years all good in ai..
Fair enough! Human emotion or human elements is still what makes any content more engaging.
Agreed. The question is... will we know the difference in a year or two?
@haikuu7059 😮 the future is scary
Using tools such as Magnific on historical photos in documentaries automatically questions the honesty, credibility and ethics of their authors. This can get pretty problematic in my opinion.
Good point - it should certainly be called out similar to how they call out reenactment scenes.
@@curiousrefuge Possibly. I guess it would depend on how clearly the photos are identified as AI-altered documents.
...and using anachronic, generated images is the antithesis of a documentary :D So, no, VERY BAD idea to use generated hallucinations in a documentary!
We understand your perspective :) We appreciate the feedback
Cool
Thx for watching!
Magnefic gives details by literally inventing them. These details falsify reality. Upressing by inventing details on an old photo is IMHO at least questionable.
Fair point! If used for things like documentaries there should be some sort of caption/notification!
AI is great but the speed of innovation is now a new problem.. there is a group of us who are still trying to learn the recent tools.. but now those tools are nearly obsolete 🤷🏾♂️🤷🏼♀️
Like why do anything if what you are trying to master wont be useful in a matter of months.
It's true - the innovation is super fast. Feel free to join our free discord community where we try and consolidate and help people understand the best tools to use!
Basically most visual and audio creators will be out of work in ten years.
If audio and visual workers use these tools themselves they can create very interesting things!
The vast majority of creatives and white collar jobs will be replaced by bots in the next 5-10 years
This is scary!
Lots to think about!
ChatGPT inside my car?!? I'd rather pay to disable this distracting feature.
Fair point - not everyone would want it. Thanks for watching!
