Don't worry, it's a shiny tool at the moment. The electric screwdriver had its wow moment too.

I still haven't found a single person willing to go to the movies, and watch an AI movie. If it wasn't made by a person, there is no 'personal'-ity to it. It's just bland.

Eventually things will slow and slide back to thoughtful first, crapload second.

The last 27 marvel movies might as well have been written by ai, plenty of people have been to see those.

I think AI movies (or shorts for that matter, since I am not aware of any feature length movie) currently are not bland, they are simply of very low quality because they are pushing the limits of the current technology. However by the time the technology catches up (might not be as soon as many expect), then nobody will care about them because it will not have personality.

3D movies were a huge shiny new tool for a while too. I hated them. They still exist but its not so in-your-face (pun!) like it was. Like hey we did a remake of the Godfather but in 3D!

I hope AI follows the same path and diminishes. Still available, but only where it make sense.

AI is making some degree of growth in Spotify IIRC.

I feel like a lot of the stuff my nieces listen to are AI music. It's like a hodgepodge of popular songs with little rhyme or reason. Very 'sloppy' but if they like it....

It's hard for me to confirm if they really are AI or not. But I'm willing to bet that (random Roblox game they're interested in today) == heavily AI made. Maybe there's some real human effort here or there but I have heavy suspicions.

For the past year, I think I've watched more AI generated video content than movies in terms of hours spent. Some of it is quite good (eg. Neuralwiz)! Granted, I watch very few movies, but still, I'd say this kind of counts.

Have you seen any recent mainstream movie made by "a person"? "Human made" is not the quality brand most people are looking for today. If authors are mentaly ill and have shitty personality, AI slop will be better.
