Also making our own video games as well.

Not sure it'll be soon though. Maybe 10 to 20 years. Exciting when it happens.

I honestly don't know if people are not factoring in the investment that is going to start flowing into the sector, now that even the slowest companies can see: 1. how good things have got and 2. how quickly they are evolving.

No one will want to be the last person at the table.

copyright will still exist in the future. You would have to wait until it expires in 2102 at least.

In 5 years it will do 15% of the work, in 10 years it will do 35% of the work in 15 years it will do 60% of the work in 20 years it will do 90% of the work.

"Soon, Hollywood could be in direct competition with generative AI tools, which, unlike self-driving cars or other long-promised technologies that never quite arrive, are already here and getting better fast. Meta and Google have announced software that converts text prompts into short videos; another tool, Phenaki, can do whole scenes. None of these video generators has been released to the public yet, but the company D-ID offers an AI app that can make people in still photos blink and read from a script, and some have been using it to animate characters created by Midjourney. “In the next few years,” says Matthew Kershaw, D-ID’s VP of marketing and growth, “we could easily see a major movie made almost entirely using AI.” Someday, instead of browsing our Rokus for something to watch, we might green-light our own entertainment by pitching loglines to algorithms that can make feature-length films with sophisticated plots, blockbuster effects, and A-list human actors from any era."

I fucking hate this attitude.

It’s crazy how fast these ideas spread in the age of social media. I felt like I was super early coming to this sub and a few of us having these predictions of using AI to generate custom blockbuster films in the near future. A month later the exact same idea and timeline is gaining traction on publications like Vulture.

This is the side effect of the Ai Era. Ideas will be harder and harder to capitalize on

There are a few book series I would like to read but I may just wait and then when this tech is around, I'll just feed it the text from these books and get the film generated for me. Billion dollar budget blockbuster equivalent generated just for me.

Also with existing movies, we should be able to feed the movie into the system and then ask for a sequel to be generated. Same style and following up the storyline and themes.

I doubt it will be legal without licensing fees, if that is an option.

Authors and artists are already turning to the courts. Direct conversion of a specific creators works via AI will almost certainly not pass legal challenges.

Just don't show or share what the AI created and they will never know. I see this no different than fan art.

I’m sure you will do a better job than the world’s best AI experts, working on 100 million dollar systems, with essentially unlimited funding.

The idea is for personal use only, not selling it to anyone. If I read the book and imagine what it is like in that world, I'm not going to be sued, I just have an aide to help me with my imagination. Honestly, I don't live in the US and courts don't accept bs copyright claims here so I don't see that as an issue at all.

The AI itself won’t be on your system, and it will be regulated.

Even if you live somewhere like China that doesn’t enforce copyright, you will still need access to the AI that is subject to copyright laws.

China, meanwhile, is already regulating AI generated content.

Why couldn’t it be on a local system? These models are all going to have open sourced equivalents eventually. Even massive models like GPT-3 could be run locally by an enthusiast, or a small group collaborative effort. It will only get cheaper in the future. Same goes for model training. You can’t close Pandora’s box.

This goes right back to closed systems.

The companies with the advanced AI’s are not going to give you copies to run on your private computer.

It’s going to be software as a service.

I think you will see this technology by the end of the decade. Not for personal use but, movie studios are going to snap this up as soon as it is available. Animation first but, then live action. Everyone that works in Hollywood will be at risk.

I agree with the title premise, but the articles discussion of attempts to attack the public over copyright if anything disturbs me. I'm entirely fine with AI remaining outside copyright honestly, or just doing away with the system in general.

Self-driving has been here for years and has been getting better the whole time. The problem is it's not a toy and it has a more or less long way to go to get good enough. AI generated art is also far from being good enough, but because nobody cares about what is good art, it has a very low bar.

Speaking seriously, of course AI is not a competitor to Hollywood, it's a competitor to the tools VFX studios currently use, like Adobe suite, Maya, Blender etc. And the developers of these tools are currently working on incorporating AI stuff into them. So the same Hollywood studios will be the first to adopt new AI tools, not some random dudes with gaming GPUs.

I think the big difference between AI and self driving cars is safety. One can kill people the other not so much. So it makes sense that self driving cars would be a slower progression
