Years? At the pace we're going, by end of the year or early mid 2024 we'll be facing the end of regular content creation and YT will be full of nothing but AI generated videos.

It won't matter if it's full of AI created content or if movies are made using it - people have to actually want to watch them.

And people aren't going to want to watch them. It's going to be fluff. It's going to be a whole lot of gravel filling up these platforms.

Does that mean this will always be the case? No... of course not. But just the ability to create SOMETHING and post it on youtube doesn't mean it is going to be worth looking at or gain any traction. Not at first.

Eventually this will change but early on its just going to be novel fluff.

It’s going to be whatever the people take the time and effort to make.

Some will be good, some will be bad.

Just like everything else on YouTube.

You are talking about narrow AI. AGI is different - this is why the smartest people in the world who make this shit have repeatedly explained they are concerned.

The subject being discussed is very narrow, text to video.

AGI was not the subject under discussion.

You're assuming movies won't turn into a personalized form of entertainment.

Yeah, there'll be fantastic short form content, but I'm talking about full length Hollywood tier movies that would fool the average person.

It's already starting to be the case for me, most of the videos I've watched on youtube these days are AI-generated voice parodies. Things are really going to take off once we can also make videos, it's going to be a new media revolution on the same level as the invention of television.

There are already AI programs for YouTube. Basically you do just the audio and talk about whatever the fuck it is you're talking about. And the AI puts together all the relevant stock clips together that match what you're talking about.
