it was a Great conversation today slAsh and Mikhail ( and guest Cat ); I'm sure you'll tweek it into perfection as y'all always do as you move forward with more presentations. Cheers
The future of filmmaking could involve utilising AI tools to generate raw footage, CGI assets, concept art, or story outlines. However, human creators would still need to extensively curate, edit and compile those materials to craft the final film according to their creative vision. This collaborative synergy of AI and human creativity could allow studios to develop original films more efficiently while retaining legal ownership. The necessary degree of human authorship would ensure eligibility for copyright protection. The future of copyrighted creativity may involve an ideal blend of human ingenuity and AI productivity.
Exactly. The legal line of what constitutes "substantial" human involvement will be explored and refined over time, and many productions will exist in a gray zone whose copyrightabilty depends on how well it's argued in court. Far from *taking* jobs, AI will create entire stacks of cases for copyright lawyers?
You make an excellent point. The criteria for determining copyright eligibility in AI-assisted creative works will likely remain ambiguous. Courts must evaluate copyright claims case-by-case, weighing factors like the degree of independent AI contribution versus human authorship and curation. There will undoubtedly be works in a grey area where reasonable arguments could be made for and against copyright protection. The legal boundaries will evolve incrementally through precedents set by crucial court rulings. Human creators collaborating with AI tools would be wise to carefully document their creative process and substantive contributions. Thorough records of decision-making and authorship will strengthen future copyright claims, should they be challenged. Overall, it's an exciting frontier that brings many open questions - your insights on the nuances are incisive. The interplay between law, technology and creativity will be fascinating in the years ahead.
Aww shucks. :) I'll add one more relevant point, as well: the effects of these AI tools will be to democratize the creation of films that today require enormous budgets and industry connections. Consider that, for a lot of movie scenery, you no longer need to build a set or even a model when a CGI environment can be made to look identical; you no longer need to hire tens of thousands of extras for Ben Hur crowds when they can simply be rendered. (And yes, a lot of CGI in practice today ends up having a cartoonish, gimmicky look; but that's primarily due to how it's employed, not so much a fundamental constraint in the underlying technology.) What I'm getting at is that the spread of AI technology in the movie-making business will make it possible for smaller and smaller studios, or possibly even individuals, to create films of a scope and quality that are typically only accessible to huge production houses today.
It's fascinating to see AI becoming integral to various creative fields, including cinema. The collaboration between AI tools and human creativity in the film industry has the potential to enhance production efficiency while maintaining the essence of human imagination. As you mentioned, AI-generated assets could significantly improve the creation of movie scenes, special effects, and virtual environments. This democratisation of filmmaking through AI might empower smaller studios and individuals to produce high-quality films, once only achievable by larger production houses. This exciting prospect highlights the evolving landscape of creative expression.
It took me a minute to put my finger on it, and no disrespect to him, but he reminds me of Dr. Brackish Okun in Independence Day in charge of Area 51 research. Just a little to giddy. Yet another interview where the ethics are totally ignored.

Undated interviews are my biggest annoyance with real vision
This was recorded last Thursday, August 24. Cheers!
@@RealVisionPresents thankyou
Do these programmers fell guilty that so many people will become unemployed and also tracked by the government?
maybe, but you can't stop the inevitable. history has shown that over and over
Great question!

The discussion is about mechanics, not the ethics. Mikhail's presentation isn't "giddy", it's called enthusiasm for a subject he knows a lot about.
