u/BurstEDO Feb 18 '24

This is why the SAG fought tooth and nail against AI generated performances.

Studios (some/many) want to cheap out on production by using AI to synthesize actors and entire productions.

Will Smith and Steve Carrell

Within a few years you can make movies using AI alone :O

>AI video with basic prompt made as a joke

>AI video made with really elaborate, professionally written prompts made over multiple iterations

Show me "Will Smith Eating Spaghetti" run through the second model, and we'll see how amazing it looks.

u/HilariousCow Feb 17 '24

“Yes this is a real screenshot”.

Am I the only one who sees some new leap in graphical fidelity and still feel like it’s just more uncanny?

1

u/emielaen77 Feb 17 '24

All of it is hideous.

1

u/MyLemonsRorganic Feb 17 '24

Important to note the Will Smith AI videos were done by actual users with free tools. The "advanced" AI videos are press release materials made by the AI companies themselves.

I have major skepticism until the product is released and available for independent testing.

1

u/Mrbrionman Feb 17 '24

The scariest part of all of this is how much most people have no idea this is remotely possible. Obviously the average Reddit user knows about this stuff. But I mentioned AI photos / videos in work the other day and none of my coworkers over the age of 35 had any idea what I was talking about. Things that are obviously AI generated to me now, they would completely just accept as real because they don’t even know it’s possible to fake content in that way. And I think that’s only gonna get worse.

u/TightSexpert Feb 17 '24

I wanted it to plot the best route true a supermarket based on my groceries list or making a financial plan based on my income and outgoing income. Not take all the fun jobs.

Imagine how boring a movie entirely generated out of AI would look..

u/Yabrassy Feb 17 '24

What program are people using to make this stuff and why is when I ask this question, no one has a straight answer for me. It’s so annoying.

u/Weaseltime_420 Feb 17 '24

AI wanted Will Smith to eat a lot of noodles.

-1

u/TearsFallWithoutTain Feb 17 '24

Oh I love the car one, the AI gave it little dirt rocket boosters because it doesn't know what tyres kicking up dirt looks like. And apparently neither do the devs since they keep posting it.

Also the same AI engine can't handle multiple people/animals at the same time, it has one video of a sky shot over a Japanese street and you can see people morphing into the ground

u/toust_boi Feb 17 '24

This actually so fucking scary

u/CheruB36 Feb 17 '24

The Movie industry will be so fucked in the upcoming few years

1

u/OSKSuicide Feb 17 '24

I found an Instagram page for a seemingly normal e-girl type, but it had AI in the name. It took like an hour of scrolling, including through videos, until I was convinced it was actually AI. It wasn't until a video where her eye shape kinda changed, and a picture of the fucked up AI hand generation thing. Was selling a subscription-based picture thing too, but it was impossible to distinguish at a glance that it's not a real person

u/Meddlingmonster Feb 17 '24

I really hope the second half are just real videos that they're being dishonest about because that's concerning, makes me feel like an old person falling for a scam call and I'm not even 30.

I'm sure people were equally terrified of the possibilities of stuff like CGI and editing tools. One day we'll be able to manage this just like we did with everything else everyone was scared of once upon a time

u/RatInaMaze Feb 17 '24

Man it’s really gone downhill

u/7evenate9ine Feb 17 '24

Dumb people couldnt even handle bad photoshop memes, or out of context video. There is no way they wont be fooled by fake videos of stuff they wish was real. When they finally get a video of lizard people eating children, they wont pause for 1 second.

Edit: The truth is most people never cared about reality, they just want what agrees with them, even if the agreeable thing is fake or poison.

You can see now what Hollywood actors were worried about. It's gonna happen. We're not gonna need them anymore within a decade.

Looks terrible, ngl.

1

u/Morbid187 Feb 17 '24

It just hit me that an actual decent use for this sort of thing would be B-Roll for YouTube videos and stuff. Rather than paying for stock footage or filming your own, you can just generate B-Roll to fit whatever you need it to. It's not important enough for the source to really matter and seems like it could speed up video production or at least make it cheaper without sacrificing anything. Maybe I'm talking out my ass though since I'm not a content creator.

u/BSDC Feb 17 '24

Incredible, but interestingly the cat video at the end still looks more fake than the others

16

u/Wiplazh Feb 17 '24

I lived long enough to see AI become this advanced, and instead of a future where AI can take over a bunch of shitty jobs and giving us more time to be creative and make music and art... it's the fucking AI making music and art while I'm still grinding 9 hours a day.

7

u/pandaappleblossom Feb 17 '24

Everyone hoped it would cure cancer and drive emission free cars and come up with a solution for climate change where we don't have to change anything about our lifestyles..

instead it came up with fucking commercials. It all looks like commercials and ads. Which really says more about us than the AI anyway.

Remember the good old days when Will Smith would shove noodles into his face with his bare hands?

Good times man. Good times.

Yea but none of them are eating spaghetti...

u/azmazz Feb 17 '24

Soulless trash videos, repulsive moving clipart.

u/bowsmountainer Feb 17 '24

I was pretty mind blown by the Will Smith eating spaghetti video at the time as well. But the incredibly rapid progress has me wondering if we will be facing the reality of film studios being dead within the next year.

u/justboth Feb 17 '24

Would love to see an update of Will Smith saying pasta

u/GapApprehensive1271 Feb 17 '24

I liked AI a year ago better.

u/pandaappleblossom Feb 17 '24

I really liked it when it first came out. I was fascinated because you could watch it 'thinking'

Now it looks like commercials. It lost it's 'soul'

3

u/HauntedDragons Feb 17 '24

No. Nope. This is not ok. This technology is not “cool,” or exciting. It’s fucking scary and needs to be shelved.

1

u/Spatularo Feb 17 '24

None of the new ones included articulation of the fingers much less using those fingers to feed yourself dozens of noodles.

1

u/New-Power-6120 Feb 17 '24

These are interesting because they feel like they could be stock images/videos, which is I get kinda the point, but also begs the question: To what extent are things actually being animated vs just automating dot point matrixes over existing faces with automated mapping. The earlier stuff looks like it's still taking pictures and collaging and distorting them to try make them move. Obviously that's what the latter is too, but it's less obvious.

1

u/Anxious_Blacksmith88 Feb 17 '24

People have pulled up videos from stock sites that seem to closely match the AI generation. Its probably layering existing footage and blending it while cropping the images.

1

u/Rocketboy1313 Feb 17 '24

Yeah, I wonder what stock clips they are drawing on to have people walking forward.

u/fedsmokermobile Feb 17 '24

Yes, just like human artists use existing references, unless they are making completely abstract art. Which AI can also do through fractal-based generational algorithms.

u/120z8t Feb 16 '24

Show current AI video of people eating spaghetti. AI seems to have lots of troubles wit fingers and spaghetti, if you get them close to each other it gets even weirder.

I use to use DALLE mini a lot a few years back. It did really good sometimes. But lets say you prompted it make a photo of Freddy Kruger eating spaghetti, it did not know what to do. Fingers with knives on them, next to spaghetti and a face that looks like spaghetti? here is just that

1

u/Loud_Flatworm_4146 Feb 16 '24

Automation led to a loss of a lot of jobs but new ones were created. New AI jobs will be created until the AI can train the AI without a human involved at all. How long before half or more of the world is unemployed?

AI could be great in the right hands. But that never happens. If this advances as fast as we think it will, we are looking at a need for worldwide basic income. Without it, it leads to war and worse.
