Big brain tech dude got yet another clueless take over at HackerNews etc? Here's the place to vent. Orange site, VC foolishness, all welcome.

I think what they claimed “this is what real artists can do with this technology”
Which appears exactly what this video is.
weird OpenAI neglected to mention that what the real artists were doing with the technology was spend a lot of time heavily editing and fucking rotoscoping its output to look barely passable
but the result was still uninteresting garbage that’s only barely notable if you think generative AI did it, and we’ve established that all the coherent parts of this were done (as usual) with the hard work of a team of uncredited humans
I am confused, was the expectation really a magic automate entire movie clip button? Because thats not how any kind of creative generative ai works in my experience.
llms are not sentient, they cannot perform “intentional reasoning” of course the showcased art is a human work. Of course the raw output has hallucinations, gpt4 is not except of that either but its still a great drafter.
The results stands to appear technologically very impressive. This kind of thing was perceived as never to be possible and improves quickly.
No cameras, no physical shooting, no actors. Just a few creatives and something to compute.
it's quite telling that you don't think that actors are “creatives” but think that “gpt-4 is a great drafter”.
