Ya, until management asks "The computer made this all on its own? Well what do we need you for?"
We're already in an era with an incredible abundance of media to consume, and it's still the best quality that commands attention and why actual managers spend huge amounts of money for IP like Power of the Rings, House of the Dragon etc., because an enormous supply of low quality content doesn't make as much money.
If anything, these AI tools will just reduce the advantage of large studios with deep pockets and empower indy developers to produce more varied content than they ever could before with the budgets they have.

Is the IP and the shows produced from it higher quality than original? In general I’d say no.
They buy IP because the cost per eyeball is lower when your product is known.

You can say a movie/show isn't as good as the book or whatever the source content was, but that's completely missing the point even if it is true. It's still more valuable to have great content that's of rare quality than it is to have content that's of a quality that is in massive oversupply. AI generated content will be in massive supply because it will be cheap, fast, and easy. It will take some really skillful use of the tools to produce things that really stand out.

The mix of real-time AI lenses with XR is going to be crazy. You could walking through the real world and interacting with objects and people but seeing them in all kinds of reimagined forms.

Is there a way to specifically search up clips like this? I saw this one and the girl dancing one and they're hard to look away from in a sort of morbid curiosity sort of way.

Turn J-walking into an AR version of Frogger. Nothing could go wrong!

The #warpdiffusion hashtag has a bunch of them. Some really cool combinations of live performance with AI too, like this one.
I'm late to the show but I've been playing around with it thanks to Russic. Once you get into the detailed prompts you can get some pretty incredible images. Switching up aspect ratios or camera lenses and lighting gives lots of opportunity to play.
I can see why some digital artists might be concerned about this. It's far from perfect but it's only going to get better and someone with patience and creativity can push this really far.
Here's a few I did over lunch.
Spoiler!
They slipped a bear Santa in on this one.
Jack Skellington directed by Guillermo del Toro isn't all that different.

You got some great looking outputs.
Here's a thread where a guy trains ChatGPT to create Midjourney prompts according to a template he uses. Pretty cool too.
MBs talking about the "physics" and "textures" and "lighting" of the videos make me think he doesn't really get what's going on here. AI isn't creating these videos de nuevo from first principles of reality. It's just like the language models where it's just calculating what the next most likely pixel will be based on what it knows. Those puppies in the snow aren't modeled, it's just taking videos of puppies and remixing them.
EDIT: Not that it isn't crazy, it totally is, it's just the level of crazy MB seems to think.

Will become the favourite tools of criminals, and politicians. Release generated video to muddy the waters causing all video to be called into question. Will become impossible to tell what is recorded reality and what is not.
