You made one big claim that I am hung up on. You said AI doesn’t have perspective, and maybe at the moment it doesn’t- I don’t know, I’m not informed enough. I do feel like having information input may contribute to a perspective in the future. If data from Star Trek made a film, I would watch it- and what I mean to say, is maybe the ai is living some form of a lifetime- or at least will in the future. It’s base level now, but realistically the technology won’t stop improving and getting more complex. At what point can we adorn an ai with sentience, and is that enough to create meaningful art?

she's the actress & scream queen of our generation

Im like, what 15 year old watches these movies? Then I remember I first downloaded Clockwork Orange when I was like 12.

crazy rich asians is my fav airplane movie

Thank you for talking about this. I've tried to push this conversation with fellow filmmakers, it's just not talked about enough. I showed my professor when "airhead" came out, and she feared for her job. I fear for my future, just trying to stay hopeful.

Man this is a really hard conversation to have because it requires people to look forward 5-10 years and see where this is all headed, and a lot of people keep applying this current tech with the current economy and come to the conclusion that it's dystopian because it would be. The truth though is the best case scenario none of this will matter because you will be able to for the first time in human history not have to hustle your art to survive. You can wake up, decide how you want to spend it, and then work on whatever you want, with whoever you want, to display wherever you want. Even if there were flying cars outside, you could be inside doing something more personal that you care about. The best example for my case, is that I get the same satisfaction from screening my shorts and animations at local festivals for 200 people in a bar than I would from posting on KZbin. The only reason I have social media is because the potential to make money. Otherwise I wouldn't have half the accounts I do now.

This Movie was the Food Equivalent of a Fruit Cake, everyone says they like it because of who made it and they don’t want to Hurt anyone’s feelings… But when there’re Not looking, you throw it in the Trash

I agree that there is something missing but i honestly think it might be on purpose because there was something missing for Pricilla. She felt like there was missing in their relationship. It’s just a realistic take on Elvis and the Elvis movie is about the perspective of the public on Elvis with hints of realism. But overall I loved this movie but I would understand if people didn’t feel the same way it’s just a movie for certain people

The film was wonderfully shot in a down to earth manner. No fancy over glorifying scenes, but just raw and gritty. And the direction of the movie to depict Napoleon Bonaparte as a flawed man and not the over glamorized general as people like to think he was, is an excellent decision. Napoleon Bonaparte was in fact in real life a flawed man aswell. While though unquestionably being a strategic military talented man, but people cannot possibly think Bonaparte was a genius man 24 hours a day 7 days week. This movie was about the man behind the General. Bonaparte was in fact a petty, egocentric, perverted and brutal dictator that is flawed in every aspect of the word and lead millions into their deaths because of his ambitions. Napoleon victories were in fact not victories, because it was due to the cost of huge amount of losses of lives. His marriage was also a mess, even though it is said he did genuinely love his wife Josephine, but even that was questionable. While not depicted in the movie but Bonaparte was said to have committing adultery right before his coronation, he also had an affair during his campaign in egypt right after knowing Josephine was having an affair back home in Paris. So the relationship between Josephine and Napoleon was an utter mess. There was also several assassination attempts against Napoleon Bonaparte, and thus shows he was not as loved and adored as people think. However the movie was for the most part historically accurate, both the events of Bonaparte aswell as the brutal battles and the senseless treatment of loss of lives and gives us a window how immoral times it were back in the days.

After hours is actually so underrated. Only found out about through the after hours album and after watching it. Holyyyyy it’s fucjing good. Wizard of Oz meets the social insanity of 2024 set in the streets of Soho before it was filled with a bunch of eccentric rich people. Highly highly recommend it

Thank you for your take on this subject. It is a divisive subject that will become more important in the world of film in the years to come. I would like to make a point of criticism or counter argument to your take however. I feel like you don't really appreciate the art that has gone into making 'Air Head'. It's definitely not been as simple as a single person at OpenAI giving 1,2, or 3 prompts to Sora, downloading the video and putting it up on the Internet. One can imagine they have spent hours figuring out the right prompting for the kind of aesthetic they wanted, and trying out hundreds of different shots and generations before finalizing the short film. It is still edited together by a person. So in short; you wouldn't have been able to make 'Air Head'. It took an artist proficient with the tool that is Sora to create it. You say in your video that you were happy you edited out all the photos and frames of your music video 'by hand'. But did you really do it by hand? You just sat behind your computer, clicking a mouse to cut out the photos. A person back in the 60s who had to perform this kind of action by cutting out film and taping it on top of other film would've criticized you for not being 'true' to the artform. See, the fact that you were able to use a computer to make that music video, instead of really doing it by hand, allowed you to focus on other elements of the music video, and probably make it real in the first place. In the same way, AI will ease elements of film making, thus allowing people to pay more attention to other elements of their film making. Think about the teenagers who may have never succeeded in making a short film in traditional methods, now able to produce creative work with AI's like Sora. I think it will take a while before full-AI blockbuster movies will hit movie theaters. Whatever AI enters blockbuster movies will more likely be features (like special effects) rather than entire scenes. However, shortfilms (like 'Air Head') will see much more of AI in the short term. And while we are using it right now to produce work that is similar to what we already can do, we will soon learn to make videos and films unlike we were ever able to make before. As with pretty much any new technology. It is scary at first. But what lies on the other side is a world where more people can create. And create things in a far more varied and rich way than we could before. It will take time. Resistance and struggles will be met. But good times are ahead.

Posh, privileged girl re-writes The Talented Mr Ripley...

This video proves that people will literally make a video about utter nonsense and try to prove it with even more nonsense. I actually thought we were going somewhere at the beginning but.... this is why Alex Bale is the best spongebob KZbinr out there. 😅

EARTHSEA UNDERRATED, SPIRITED AWAY OVER RATED AND I'LL STAND ON THAT.

an important distinction to make is between ai and generative ai. one is a tool for artists and the other steals peoples art

One of the reasons why Lanthimos' films fail to win me over, is because they rarely make me feel something. The tries to dazzle with overt visuals & ornamental spectacle, which are only intriguing for the first 30 mins , but never lets me feel any real emotion. I find his films to be artistic exercises, but intellectually incomplete, and emotionally absent. And Poor Things seems to me the perfect example of this. Maybe if I also had the brain of a child who was blind to pedophilia and plot substance then I may have liked it too!

We might see A.O.I. (Coined by De La Soul) very soon, and you will f***ing despise it until the day you die.

Funny you make an example out of Madame Web, which is most likely written with the help of AI. I just can’t see it any other way.

Watching on a 2003 Dell M782. It's beautiful.

💪🏼

Something Rick Dalton would love, too bad he passed away before that.

I love how you mention the kinks make the thing what it is. An overly sanitised product that nobody bothered to spend any time on is really boring!

i feel like every youtube video i’ve seen recently ends with “guy things are about 2 get bad”

You can love a movie while still acknowledging it's a deeply flawed hot mess, and that's how I feel about this one. A second viewing confirmed it was meant to be a comedy, one that was horribly marketed as a serious historical epic when it was closer to big-budget Blackadder meets Drunk History. I loved the setpieces and couldn't have cared less about how little sense they made (The Battle of Austerlitz especially). If I want an authentic historical epic on the Napoleonic period, I'll fire up Waterloo. I find it refreshing in this day and age that a filmmaker on Ridley Scott's level just doesn't give a shit about what anyone thinks. Like his similarly batshit The Counselor, it will develop its cult following in due time of people who get what he was going for.

That is a great quote "people are obsessed with seeing how far something can go" it's this dumb fetiche that prevents us from seeing an obvious downgrade in our quality of life in the longterm, that makes us want any posible technological advance disregarding the ethics behind it, that makes us elect any dumb a$s for president just to see how far they will take it.

My dream is to become a music producer, I have studied sound design and music production and plan on continuing down that path. But recently I've just been having a hard time figuring out if it's the best way to go. Although I don't think that "AI *music*" will ever reach the same level of personality and love as real music does, it feels like not enough people care for that to matter. If record labels ever get paid to release AI crap in the future, there would be no reason for them to sign artists when they can just make them from scratch. And all this that has been going around my head just makes me feel like my dream isn't possible anymore. I will 100% keep going, but all of this AI stuff is keeping a sour taste in my mouth.

I cannot believe you rated whisper of the heart below Ponyo. You’re breaking my heart over here. That’s my favorite movie. It’s the Taylor Swift movie, that the Swifties never knew existed. Until you become a 14-year-old girl you will never feel the way I felt when I watched that movie for the first time I watched that movie for the first time at 10 years old and I couldn’t wait to become 14 I’m now 21 and I am trying to live a life that would make shizuku proud because I’m trying to become a screen, writer and producer Making a movie as naïve, and as serene as, that one will be my life’s work

another stereotype coming for India. All thanks to Dev Patel

As a visual artist, yeah, it really sucks how much the people using IA to make art are COMPLETELY oblivious to the fact that we do, in fact, enjoy the process

Fluch der Karibik 2 ist der beste. Ich bleibe dabei

This is so human-centric. Just because it was made by AI its bad?!? Open your mind. Its a cool new frontier its not stupid. Their will always be a place for human made art and film and that exist without stopping or sideling the creation of AI art and film.

I just finished watching it myself. I’d probably give it like a 6.5/10. I enjoyed all of the actors and I was intrigued in what was going on, though I wasn’t as into it for the past 30 minutes. I’d definitely rewatch it sometime, though.

It was bad , the dialogues were Horrible.

I think you’re wrong. Even in your music video you relied heavily on automations that didn’t exist even 2 decades ago. Are you “missing” the experience of cutting by hand, for example? Yes, you are. Actually, you could choose to learn the art of physical collage and 2D stop motion video, and it would probably be incredibly rewarding. But in this context, the shortcuts allowed you to express yourself in a way that you would not have otherwise had the time to do - and despite the shortcuts, you found value and joy in the creative act. The “quirks” you’re talking about are arbitrary. There are quirks to hand-cut videos that have been eliminated by your digital process. If you want, you could synthesize those quirks - for example, in your music video, the band members are shown in black and white. I doubt you shot those portions on black and white film, you likely digitally altered it to recreate a look that was once a necessity- a quirk of early film technology. But the end result is clearly the same (or rather, of equal artistic value) despite being “inauthentic” from a certain pedantic point of view. In fact, AI art DOES have quirks. “The process of making it made it what it is”, to paraphrase you. That phrase applies just as easily to AI art, though you didn’t intent it to. And this is where the idea of prompts come in. I am sure you understand how AI content is made. However, rarely if at all do you ever acknowledge in this video that (almost) all AI art is generated as the result of a human input. Somebody has to decide WHAT they want to generate using these tools. Somebody has to use their imagination to come up with an idea, and then engage a tool to manifest it. That is the process of art- nothing has changed in essence, only in form. And the change in form is a massive one, but is still just form, not essence. By failing to discuss the human input, you can make a case that AI art is soulless. But the truth is every AI generated piece of content you see has one or multiple human souls behind it. You simply can’t sidestep this, as it’s a fact. The second point is your failure to discuss where this AI art will be seen. You seem to be implying a world in which one can go to the movie theater, in exactly the same manner you do today, and see a Marvel movie entirely generated by AI. As if somebody typed in “Iron Man 7”, and called it a day. Frankly I find that to be a very naive take. In a reality where movies can be generated in that way, there would no longer be any reason to pay for a movie ticket. I can generate Iron Man 19 at home. There is no reason to assume this would ever be a reality. In order for something to be sold it has to be something the consumer can’t make themselves. Thus there will ALWAYS be a demand for genuine human content. Now- will AI make the potential for “bad movies” to be made greater? Obviously yes. It will make literally EVERY aspect, good and bad, of the film world easier. Therefore the apocalyptic future you’re afraid of is actually identical to the world we live in now: a world where large studios pump out barely human garbage for the masses, while a minority of artists all across the “artistic purity” spectrum continue to make their own unique art. The latter is where most high art will appear, and the former is where the masses will be entertained and pacified. Exactly as it is today. In fact, the only real difference will be that my younger brother can use AI tools to make home videos on a scale I could never have imagined as a kid with a digital video camera. It is a net positive. And creating art “the old way” will always be an option, just as it is today. To summarize- today we have Board Meeting Generated Blockbuster Slop, we have Basement-Edited Super 8 experimental films, and everything in between. Tomorrow, we have AI Generated Slop (with prompts from previously mentioned Board Members), we will STILL have Basement-edited super 8 films, and we will still have everything in between. My question is, what are you so afraid of? Who do you think is going to stop you from making art the way you want to make it? Why are you so against making art accessible to more people? Are you afraid to let them in? Afraid you won’t be special anymore?

just because something is Unethical doesn't mean it will stop...if it did then there wouldn't be por* sites.

Libtard cries about AI

my thought on ai generated anything (art, film, writing, etc.) is why should I be bothered to care about something nobody could have been bothered to make?

ai will never truly replace human artistry and i firmly believe that

You should look into the Golden Demon from this year. It's a huge, decades old miniature painting competition, and this year, one of the entries won gold in its category with an AI generated background image behind the miniature. It's not clear if the judges were aware that the background was AI, but the takeover's already starting. Unfortunately, AI entries into competitions are not at all out of the question, and in fact can win 1st place. Yay.

Excellent video, Karsten. Well said.

This movie just became my comfort movie. It’s so great and they way we see those twins mourn for each other? My ghad CINEMA give me more angst!

BEST LINE: “Oh my goddd ur the MURDERER! You’re such a fucking BITCH!” 😂😂😂 Oh how I would have loved to have a role in this film. The script is so fun! This movie did a great job of integrating suspense with comedy. It showed how chaotic and messy things can get when you peel back the layers of a friendship circle. No reception. NO WiFi. No light. What’s left? People and their fears, insecurities, true intentions. I also love how they created a parody of how people talk using buzz words from the internet, High lighting the fact that many people rely on tweets and infographs for their opinions, and lack the ability to form an original thought. Shawty said “Oh my God, you’re SO toxic!” Lmaoooo. Genius.

Moonrise Kingdom last is crazy. That's in my top 3 for sure.

I’m a woman so I guess I’ll leave

The one and only time I watched the Lorax, it was during a pretty heavy acid trip. Oh boy, what a fuckin trip that was.

i was in fact eating lunch while watching this video

Go ahead and read Nausicaa manga... it won't disappoint, that's for sure

while i agree that AI should be use as a tool to speed your process and that there is no fun if AI do all the process for you, that is an argument from the side of a creative person doing art. Maybe that short was mid, but someday, AI will create great art and while that notion wont stop me from doing art, why would art consumers care if its AI or man made? i will see art and decide if i love it or not, i wont care if its AI or man made!
