Commercials may go AI but film will not. Art will not. Music will not. There is no human connection in AI. Just ersatz creepiness and no matter how much they massage the algorithm it will never come to life.
Sure, some dipshits will make AI slop movies and "art" and it will make special effects cheaper (and even worse than the CGI crap they make now) but there is no substitute for real humans really acting and connecting in that strange chemistry two talented actors (who are most likely kinda idiotic IRL) with a good script and directing team can conjure.
Human beings crave connection. Many go hysterical without it which is one reason liberals are losing their minds. They don't have intimate discussions with each other because they are frightened of slipping up and saying something haram. That's why they want to destroy anyone who has organic conversations. See this week's contrived group chat "scandal".
We crave connection so much we go to the movies for more of it. We want to live in movies because the good ones feel so good we are entranced. AI will never do that. Just like all the old ghouls will die and never download their "consciousness" into a computer. It's a techno fantasy like going to Mars. Not gonna happen.
Here I am rambling again. Trying once more for a connection. Cheers Rambo.
Agreed. People appreciate the value of something human-made, whether it’s art, a fine piece of furniture, or an expertly rendered service. At the same time, commodities are useful. AI is going to be used up and down to make both commodities cheaper and artisanal products more accessible. In the early days of film, people were entertained by the *mere existence* of moving pictures. That’s about where we are now with AI. But the novelty will wear off and it will become about what you can make *with* AI that determines whether you have a product that will sell.
As far as the entertainment industry goes, I think that’s the kind of thing you’ll see with AI: real foundations augmented using AI. Instead of Kubrick demanding 100 takes until every variable falls into place, or the director settling for the best out of 5, maybe AI allows everyone to have their cake and eat it too. That stray coffee cup that ruined the shot? *click, click, gone!*
I’m mostly white-pilled on the tech despite it squashing most of my skillset in short order. I’ve been an in-house creative for a B2B manufacturer for over 20 years—basically a micro-budget variation on what Rambo does—so I have a lot of the same concerns. At the same time, it’s taken over a lot of the more sucky portions of the job, like turning a SME’s poorly structured bullet points and turning them into a readable specs brochure. And someone still needs to take product shots of something that has never existed before. I’m sure the AI will get good enough to take a series of photos and incorporate those things into polished outputs, but it’ll still be something that needs done.
Yes I can see it augmenting some aspects of work. I tried using github's copilot for software dev at the goliath bank I'm working at - they keep pushing us to use it - and it is worse than useless as it blurts out irrelevant code that interrupts my flow. I'm sure it would be better if they could train it on their very idiosyncratic codebase but then the bank's code would need to be delivered to the bowels of github's AI server farms and that's a dealbreaker for a number of reasons.
Mgmt are creaming their pants though dreaming of massive productivity gains and all the devs they could potentially lay off. They already have a metric they pulled out of their collective ass: one-third productivity increase. Amazing!
I wish I’d learned sooner that projections are all bullshit and the people who make them aren’t the ones to pay for missing them. I coulda been a C?O with that knowledge. (Probably not.)
In 50 years very few will know how it was done.
God bless you RBH

The AI fake of Katie Porter wrestling that reporter to the ground was fun. Lotta potential there.
