The counter point is, if it makes it so easy to make it, it’s just… meh. We get used to things extremely fast.

Even in traditional art. The Black Square was revolutionary in its specific way, but the copycats aren’t talked about.

I think the AI Seinfeld will be remembered for a while, but random spin offs will be forgotten. Just like how Twitch Plays Pokemon was huge, but follow ups got forgotten. AI art will need to find uniqueness angle at each step, because the complexity aspect will never be there.

The video above is not easy. AI is automation. A lot of what required a large team and budget before can be done by individuals or small teams. To do something good still requires skill, talent and dedication. The bar of what it's noteworthy raises. Creators that can harness the new tools in unique ways will create the new Seinfields and Pokemons. I'm excited for example that 3D animation movies a la Pixar won't be exclusively produced by multi-billion dollar companies. Small studios or even individuals can participate and the lower costs will allow for much more creative risk.

Like again, I get what you’re saying, and I agree with it. But my point was, once everyone can generate Pixar-quality movies, they will simply lose the appeal. Maybe it should be that way, maybe it shouldn’t, but crowded market just desensitizes people and makes them shrug.

There will be winner-takes-it-all productions, and that’ll come mostly from the companies with the highest marketing budgets.

The biggest uphill battle that AI content creation companies will have to fight is kind of societal. They’ll need to change public’s perception that AI=“low effort”.
