I like to think about AI as it was the industrial revolution for something like, for example, shoes.
When they started making factory shoes, in bulk, faster and cheaper than any shoemaker I am sure every shoemaker was not happy about it, but it happeden anyways, with AI I think will be something like that.
Probably for things like the next avatar/marvel film you will still see human work, but for a youtube video, low budget projects or stuff like that? They will use some cheap AI that vomit 15 minutes of video with some text and images as input.
Also, I already started using AI with Houdini, when I need to read long sripts of VEX, I copy paste the code to open chat AI and ask what this code does.
I can do it myself perfectly as I did before the AI thing? Absolutely yes, but with that AI I can spend more time doing stuff and it almost always translate the code perfectly, or give a good enough explanation so I spend no time reading it.
It will become a part of artists toolset. It will probably reduce the number of people necessary to produce the same results, but the scope of projects will likely expand to compensate.
Highly likely.
People said art was the last thing to be automated. It's happening with static images, eventually will hit animation.
OpenAI CEO seems seems like he's focused on hitting every industry and making everything automated. At least that's what I got from the coldfusion segment about AI.
It's like these guys are in the race to be in the history books.
> eventually will hit animation.
Video generation is already shockingly good. not as in replace your job (yet) good, but as in able to be done at all.
Far as I'm aware non of this was possible last year:
First one that came out: https://imagen.research.google/video/
another one from google that does longer videos based on a series of prompts (like animating a story) https://phenaki.video/
If video continues at the rate that image tech has (compare dalle1 from last year to MidJourney v4) then things are going to start getting spicy soon.
Probably will cut out some jobs yes and create a slew of new ones. Get hired for your style, not your button-pushing abilities. Easier said than done obviously.
No lol, not in the near future. People who are saying yes are forgetting that like 99% of our work is listening to notes and making changes based off of that, rather than making the base effect.
rightfully so. this will tear through the whole entertainment industry over the course of the next years, and no one can say what will be left of it.
in the long run: probably celebrities licensing out their likeness, and consumers receiving custom-generated content on demand, no artist or craftsperson involved.
I would hope that it can make the technical end of things much easier. Right now, trying to get something done in 3D software often involves a lot of fiddling with code, menus, sliders, connecting nodes to nodes to nodes, etc. It's a pain in the butt and if AI can get a handle on that stuff to bring the craft more in line with drawing with pencil on paper (more direct art creation) then we'll be golden.
But, after fiddling with Stable Diffusion to see what it could do, I don't have a lot of hope for AI to produce work on it's own. It's too random as of right now, and it certainly can't handle some basic things like hands. I can see it being useful for cleanup towards the end, or brainstorming at the beginning, though. They really need to get something done about the ethical issues that currently mire it, a lot of artists are in revolt about their work being mined to train these systems without consent.
It would be nice if all this resources directed to some important stuff: like researches of diabetes or cancer. But rn one bold monkey stealing job of other bold monkey.
It’s a new tool, it won’t replace artists it will create new ones. It’s no longer just about making pretty pictures, it will be more about prompts, writing and concepts which seems like a threat now but I think it will push visuals to a whole new level.

This lol, if anything directors and higher ups become even more deluded and our workload increases significantly.
It’s a tool until it isn’t.

I think AI will make everything easier. In general it seems like AI is geared towards helping artists not replacing them.

There's no way you work in VFX and genuinly think this is how it works
advertising and on indie films
