you are not even capable of making this
Actually I know how to use AI tools and a video editor and I took coursework in video editing and theory of cinema, so yeah I probably can do it.
But the value of art is not just technical competence. I value the position and intentionality of the human in the art. I am skeptical of your ability to tell a story in a way that is unique or interesting. For example: you have spent the past month advertising your movie as an “AI movie”. Okay, what’s it about? Why would I want to watch this movie? Why would I give it some of my finite time on this miserable planet, which as a reminder you cannot get back and you don’t even know how much you have left, why would I give it my time when there are fifty bajillion other things done by humans for me to care about.
Like if you want to increase the probability of me watching it: what part did you play in this? It sounds like you didn’t film anything or generate any of the images by yourself, which really detracts from my interest considering film is a visual medium and I don’t find still AI art to be interesting for the same reason previously discussed. Did you edit it? Did you do the voice acting? Did you write the script? Did you edit the script? Where is the human in all this AI-generated content?
And it’s not hate. Not liking your work isn’t hate. Check my comments on capitalism and AmeriKKKa for some examples of true hatred. Because that’s the final thing: it is a scathing indictment of capitalism that AI replaced the artists before every other occupation. AI art and its unintentional uncanny valley aesthetic are representative of a world in which the capitalists use AI (or threats thereof) to keep the proletariat in a position of precarity. And the data centers used to train these algorithms are destroying local ecosystems. And besides putting human artists out of business, most of the other applications of AI have been death and destruction at the hands of police, armies, and governments. In particular, the Gaza Genocide and Iran War were powered by AI systems.
So in addition to the technical and non-political aesthetic concerns…AI art is currently the aesthetic of the oppressor. And it’s probably always gonna be that way, because the first thing that AI took away from us, the literal first thing, was the job of being an artist.
And to be clear, I think that AI has legitimate uses. I use it as a LaTeX assistant. And there are a few uses of AI and machine learning in medicine. Like I am hundreds of pages into reading statistical learning theory textbooks for a reason!
But I don’t want this crap in my art. Please I beg you, just film your movies with your own cameras, or do it in Gmod or GTA V if you can’t do it in real life or animate it, or come up with some other clever way to do it. Sing the song with your own voice. Because I’m just not interested in watching frames generated by AI systems. And that aesthetic preference is absolutely gonna be the norm on an openly anti-capitalist platform like Lemmy.
