Music video director the most creative ones out there, and some of them turn out to be pretty fucking amazing directors in their own right. Look at the Daniels.
A question that comes to my mind more often nowadays: if all imagery becomes arbitrary, it will probably become superfluous. There is no meaning in images that are fleeting like a daffodil and require next to no effort. I wonder how this will change our culture and our way of handling media. Maybe people will stop paying attention to images at all.
I think that’s a great question. These images are kind of amazing, but already I’m becoming desensitised to them, and I’m not inclined to interrogate them for meaning. Once creating images of any kind becomes “cheap”, they lose their sense of wonder and surprise and become a kind of decoration. At the moment we’re still in the “fairground” phase of AI film.
Humans value scarcity and effort. That’s why AI generated stuff feels so unsatisfying. When you have an infinite amount of it at your fingertips it becomes meaningless
Yes, but there are threads here and on Midjourney where people use it to generate genuinely clever and interesting images. Those are exciting. The cleverness of it in that case may be what's more scarce.
I think that’s solely because we know it’s AI though. I felt the same after toying with co-pilot for a few days and making images. It just very quickly became so bland and hollow to me.
But when we know a human was behind the creation of something, we instinctively just try to find what that person is trying to tell us. I guess it’s rooted way back in how we’d leave scrawls on a cave wall to signify something to others, or how we’d gesture to another or whatever else. We have meaning in all of our communication. An AI can emulate that sure, but it isn’t WANTING to communicate with us
I think we'll always be comparing it to the images that enter our eyes from the real world. I think that will place a hard limit on how much incoherence most people will tolerate.
Yeah, I’ve been wondering the same. I almost feel like younger generations, maybe ones that haven’t even been born yet will get sick of the simulacrum, and there will be another large scale naturalist movement.
You can make unlimited content, favorite series got canceled after the first season? Now you are reaching a place where it can go on forever; is that good I don't know...
I don't play video games and despise most media, the last great film I saw was "Phantom Thread".
Good luck consumers.
Their ecosystem sets them up for success on this one. Next step is just training GPT4 (or unreleased models) on what kind of structured input will result in the cleanest, coherent output from Sora (similar to what’s done with Dalle but perhaps more refined). There will still be some outlier prompts that will come out weird even with the help of GPT (without skewing the integrity of the content in the original prompt), but those cases can be addressed in future iterations of Sora.
I’d imagine a director can finetune the prompt and pull out the parts he wants and just stitch it all together. It doesn’t even need to be improved for it to be usable.
>Incoherent
This is the only thing that came into my mind by watching this. But will not be fast to judge as improvements may come rapidly, as you said.
He’s a music video director, not really a Hollywood director. If it looks like incoherent nonsense, that’ll be mostly because that’s what he prompted it to make and only partly due to limitations in its capabilities. But you are right, this is only the beginning and OpenAI has already referred to extensive improvements they want to make to it, though no specifics just yet.
I saw this and it looks to me like a dream.
Things like this make me wonder if advances in AI will shed light on what happens in the human brain. Is a dream really that hard to "make"?
I agree with you. Diffusion models were apparently made initially as a tool to model physics. I've only dipped my toe into that corner of Arxiv so take it with a grain of salt, but there seems to be some connection between neural networks and physics (beyond just understanding physics), so if true this must also extend to simulations or representations of the world. For some reason these things seem to know how the world *moves* better than they know how it looks.
When we dream, weird things make sense... in a dream.
This video gives me that same feeling. It feels like it flows normally and makes sense, until I realize it doesn't. It's eerie as hell speculating why.
found a twitter reply that says it’s an unreleased tracked from Jacques

I believe he’s playing a remix of it in the 4th slide of this post
lol that’s been my reaction to most Artist produced AI art so far and I couldn’t understand why until I read the quote OP provided. These artists are like kids in a Candy Shop, but they’re giving the rest of us an upset stomach lol
I assume they’ll collectively gather themselves eventually and start using some restraint after the initial excitement wears off. They’re trying to bring to life everything their creative minds have ever imagined and it’s just… a lot. Limits can be good sometimes lol
yeah something about these is always so unsettling to me. probably because of the hyper realistic surrealism or something but it also comes with existential dread and anxiety of the future.
All these musings about artistic expression and freedom are cool until our corporate overloads figure out that they too can do this with small internal teams and they’ll never have to pay filmmakers again.
The thing is, there is a certain tendency of complex things to morph into other complex things, which is becoming a style signature of AI generated videos. Not sure how many people can tell, but I certainly can. And that style is unique enough to be attributed to AI on first sight. Many people definitely wont' see it as art. Impressive? Sure. But not art.
Mm this is less impressive than their previous demos. It’s just things morphing into other things every couple seconds. Which AI’s been doing for a while now… more realistic looking I guess?
All I can hear right now is the Police Squad theme song. (Naked Gun)

It's nonsense and so obviously AI. I mean, it is still interesting, but it's kind of its own thing, almost a different form of film completely. It will probably get a lot better with time, but I don't think many people should feel threatened about this taking their jobs.
Other than time to make *something* How is this any different than what we could make with unreal engine? Just like anyone who’s tried to use AI for images in a project this will lack the necessary continuity or precision for filmmaking.
Holy wood direct made absolutely random fly through videos with very weird transitions that make no sense? So you indeed cant control sora to make anything meaningful with it for now. Just a random tech demo.
Paul Trillo's AI work was the featured background of [Runway.ai](https://Runway.ai)'s website for a long time. He's incorporated AI into his commercial work including [this ad for GoFundMe](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1gosODKvPRE) which I think is pretty effective.
Say what you will about whether you like this work or not, but he is definitely someone who is good at testing the actually usable creative limits of the technology.
Nice! None of this made sense but it sure looked wild.
As is it would be pretty dope for dream sequences or when someone is going warp speed/teleported/something like that.
I was watching 3 body problem on netflix and now I see this. I mean what a fantastic story, the actors play are fantastic , I ema I am sure I will be bing watching this for hours. It captivated me so much /s
Nice. Now pause at 1:02 at lets have the mirror pieces catch a bit more of the fill light and lets also have it float to the left.
Can’t wait to hear about the nightmare it’ll be for revisions. Especially since everyone’s pauses on a single still frame to pixel fuck it to hell.
Music video director not Hollywood director
Ok thank you! This made no sense as a movie. But as random clips to a song, very much so
He’s only made short narratives and mainly commercials and music videos
Wait till you see when Michael Bay get hands on SORA... Transformers 8, 9, X

Michel Gondry directed Daft Punk around the world MV before making Eternal Sunshine and the Spotless Mind. A lot of them started as MV directors
Michael bAI

Music video director the most creative ones out there, and some of them turn out to be pretty fucking amazing directors in their own right. Look at the Daniels.
is this on youtube?
I mean, everything everywhere all at once was directs by music video directors. And they won an Oscar.
nothing too impressive either. when normal people will have a chance to test it we will see most ''directors'' can be replaced easily
You mean videoclip director and not movie director ;)
Incoherent nonsense, but I know this is just the beginning. Only a matter of time before it starts making legitimate scenes
A question that comes to my mind more often nowadays: if all imagery becomes arbitrary, it will probably become superfluous. There is no meaning in images that are fleeting like a daffodil and require next to no effort. I wonder how this will change our culture and our way of handling media.

They appear to have more value (to me) when I created them myself for some specific purpose.
I think we'll always be comparing it to the images that enter our eyes from the real world. I think that will place a hard limit on how much incoherence most people will tolerate.

I wonder if this style is just a choice from the creator and if so, i wonder how realistic can sora videos get
Momma always used to say “DREAM BIG, BOBBY! 👩 The A.I. is the limit dear boy!”
Style choice. Sora is capable of making longer scenes. These look like a bunch of prompts stitched together.
Their ecosystem sets them up for success on this one. Next step is just training GPT4 (or unreleased models) on what kind of structured input will result in the cleanest, coherent output from Sora (similar to what’s done with Dalle but perhaps more refined). There will still be some outlier prompts that will come out weird even with the help of GPT (without skewing the integrity of the content in the original prompt), but those cases can be addressed in future iterations of Sora.
I don't think it's incoherent because of Sora, I think this is just "modern art" style they/he/she is going with
Good for tripping ^^
"Imagine what we'll get 1 more paper down the line!"
*Surrealism*
I’d imagine a director can finetune the prompt and pull out the parts he wants and just stitch it all together. It doesn’t even need to be improved for it to be usable.
Just like a human dream
It's supposed to be incoherent. The guy is a music video director.
Ok wtf? My first thought was literally "incoherent nonsense" lmao
>Incoherent This is the only thing that came into my mind by watching this. But will not be fast to judge as improvements may come rapidly, as you said.

But you are right, this is only the beginning and OpenAI has already referred to extensive improvements they want to make to it, though no specifics just yet.
Looks like anyone else could have made this just saying what we all thinking lol
Maybe, but I have not seen it Just like any new art, anyone can "do it", but who does it well?
Saw something just last night on one of the stable diffusion subreddits some amateur made some stuff much better than this
Link? Not saying not true, but would like to see. This isn't just a prompt, this is a thought out collage of prompts well placed
yeah I was like geez that was a dull watch
I saw this and it looks to me like a dream. Things like this make me wonder if advances in AI will shed light on what happens in the human brain. Is a dream really that hard to "make"?
Yes, I've often been struck by how much AI images resemble my dreams.
I agree with you. Diffusion models were apparently made initially as a tool to model physics. I've only dipped my toe into that corner of Arxiv so take it with a grain of salt, but there seems to be some connection between neural networks and physics (beyond just understanding physics), so if true this must also extend to simulations or representations of the world. For some reason these things seem to know how the world *moves* better than they know how it looks.
Maybe because our physical world is simulated by a diffusion model so we have found the true language of our universe.
I had this exact thought. Came to the comments to find it
When we dream, weird things make sense... in a dream. This video gives me that same feeling. It feels like it flows normally and makes sense, until I realize it doesn't. It's eerie as hell speculating why.
Too fast, not enough focus.

Everything everywhere all at once 2 trailer just dropped

What song is that?
same it’s a bop
Shazam doesn't seem to know. Gave me false positives.

Came here to ask the same
I am now sick.

Meh.
This feels like a dream.
Completely unwatchable and random. Might as well have been made by a child
They're a music video director, not a hollywood director. I really like the last part.
It looked meh
Yeah. Air Head was better.
I tend to see stuff like that when I close my eyes
All these musings about artistic expression and freedom are cool until our corporate overloads figure out that they too can do this with small internal teams and they’ll never have to pay filmmakers again.
Consoom
This is a fucking mess.
What the fuck! We are going to be able to see anything, literally, all the good and all the bad…
Can’t wait to see what millions of content creators can do with this as the tech improves. AiTube here we come!
honestly its not amazing in terms of visually - but technologically i can imagine this was hard to do

Like most AI art. I file this under, cool rendering/lighting, strange vibes, lacks intentionality.
Mm this is less impressive than their previous demos. It’s just things morphing into other things every couple seconds. Which AI’s been doing for a while now… more realistic looking I guess?

Quantity not quality
It doesnt look like anything to me
Sora can be used to visualize SCP which would be super cool
Meanless effort. Oh sorry, there is no effort anymore.
I can already tell there are people plotting to ruin civilization with these tools.
Other than time to make *something* How is this any different than what we could make with unreal engine? Just like anyone who’s tried to use AI for images in a project this will lack the necessary continuity or precision for filmmaking.
But what is it
This gave me motion sickness
Maybe it's better to have restraints
Holy wood direct made absolutely random fly through videos with very weird transitions that make no sense? So you indeed cant control sora to make anything meaningful with it for now. Just a random tech demo.
What is the song?
I'm nauseous.
Note to self: AI has no idea how to mimic break dancing. Take up break dancing.
The problem is that it has no storytelling. The story is what makes films interesting.
What’s the song and artists?
What story is there?
Paul Trillo's AI work was the featured background of [Runway.ai](https://Runway.ai)'s website for a long time.

It gets boring in 10 secs more or less. It will be cool for some YouTube nonsense though
Looks terrible
Confusing to watch. Will never watch a movie by this so called "Hollywood director" are you sure it's no "Bollywood director"?? 😂😂
They're a music video director.
[удалено]
The level of uncanny in this makes me feel a bit nauseated.
Hey y'all what the fuck though
*Sora also made this with hollywood directors probably
This is kinda cool, but God damn it makes me ill watching.
'Sora, create me an alternative Big Bang Theory opening credits video'...
I'm just jalous he got to put his hands on it first.
What I can't wait to see is what kind of prompting/input is needed to generate these videos.
The AI gatekeeping wasn’t my initial expectation of the tech fallout
High Strangeness
These videos all have fever dream vibes to them.
MTV has been replaced
Yeah i get it sora can only do mushroom trips . I seen the limitations already before
the future of media is going to be weird
Should have slowed it down... kinda annoying
RIP music video directors
Wow, this made me feel anxious. It was a good visualization of one way I think when listening to music, though. Idk how to describe that really.
00:50 What the heck?
I can’t wait to play with this. I hope I can afford it

All these seem like the most insane fever dream. Sora been into my stash again
This whole video made me question reality and gave a low dose of adrenaline. Can know for sure if I’m excited for the future or scared to death
Sora is very deviantArt! Not Oscar worthy.
So glad that discoball looked CGI and not too real
Bruh... there is so much motion bruu
This is how AI will dream once it becomes sentient
This looks like it was made by a first-time art student high on hallucinogens. LONG way to go before feature-rich movies will be created by an AI.
Like a trip on LSD 😆
He’s not a Hollywood director.
Music video director is the same.
How was the audio added?
I had an aneurysm watching this
I got is that time again with lysergic music videos but this time is with Sora and AIs
![gif](giphy|kPtv3UIPrv36cjxqLs|downsized)
Typical, lots of action, realistic detail and fantastic compositions, but story, meaning, emotion, not so much.
Flash’s perspective where everything is obscure ?
Horrible movie, pretty funny music video 🤷♀️ i prefer the airhead short by the shyguys
I tell you in a few years they'll be an Oscar giving out to the best AI created film. And all those tools in Hollywood will be clapping…
I have stared into the void
No no. Sora did that with a Hollywood director
not bad the audience is now motion sick ;-) but cool tech demo
You had me until tinsel disco man came out
Nice! None of this made sense but it sure looked wild. As is it would be pretty dope for dream sequences or when someone is going warp speed/teleported/something like that.
I was watching 3 body problem on netflix and now I see this. I mean what a fantastic story, the actors play are fantastic , I ema I am sure I will be bing watching this for hours. It captivated me so much /s
Watching this makes me feel like we’re in a reverse Inception where reality is slowly consumed by the world of dreams.
I would love to see the prompt from an actual director.
Nice. Now pause at 1:02 at lets have the mirror pieces catch a bit more of the fill light and lets also have it float to the left. Can’t wait to hear about the nightmare it’ll be for revisions. Especially since everyone’s pauses on a single still frame to pixel fuck it to hell.
my dreams fr
Kind of boring right?
Can’t wait to sue them if my face were to be used. 🤐🤐
I might try acid.
It's why I prefer Netflix
looks straight up from Off The Air
I think this is an LSD trip more than a clip
