There is a decent argument that the current generation of AI isn't creative but merely automating the "tedious part". Midjourney can create an amazing image if I ask it to make a bunny made from multicolored glass, with volumetric lighting, octane render, 8k. But wasn't the creative act here the idea to make a bunny out of glass and shine a cool light on it, rather than the execution of that idea?

The problem of course is that for the most part, the current creative community (whether paid or unpaid) is much more about execution and craftsmanship than creativity. Ideas are a some a dozen, and having exceptionally great ideas mostly matter for the top 2%. The rest is mostly shining in execution, which AI is rapidly attacking right now

I'm already bored by AI art. At first you think, who thought of that? When? What techniques did they use? How long did it take to master them? Then you realize it's just a bunch of matrices in a GPU. On top of that it doesn't mean anything, there's no other person on the other side of the image to relate to.

who know how it will progress, but I can see the ability to churn out "MVP movies" where AI actors and voice actors are used and scenes are generated. There is already stuff to create sequences of images that create videos based on prompts

Hollywood studios are already using game engines like Unreal to create virtual sets in real-time. I could see some sort of hobbyist pipeline being created that will get a decent starting point made.

Workflow would be like this:

>use GPT to generate scenes and ideas

>GPT then used to create multiple different scripts, human chooses the best for each scene

>AI voice synthesizer used to do the dialogue

>Stable diffusion or equivalent used to create multiple 3D models for characters, finishing touches by human

>models then used by game engine to act out the scene, not sure how much of this can be done via AI

>live action stuff can use deep fake technology with any random person being deep faked to look like the AI generated unique character

I can see some crazy animated/CGI movies being produced much cheaper than traditional Hollywood style used now. We could see indie projects with the look of much bigger budget projects thanks to automation. It will level the playing field somewhat and allow people with better ideas to flourish, rather than just people with connections to get funding from studios.
