I'm in agreement with scudsworth here, but i have a little more nuance, i think. I know how long this took, and how many compromises were made. The only reason this works, at all, is because humans have a massive list of cultural memes and tropes that shorthand "experience" for us. it has the "AI can only generate 2-5 seconds of video before it goes completely off the rails" vibe; which allows it to fit in with the ADHD nature of most video production of the last 30 years - something a lot of people do not like. For an example where this was jarring in the video, when they're drawing or painting, you cut the scene slightly too late, you can see the AI was about to do some wild nonsense.

What happened to the mom? Why does the kid get older and younger looking? why does the city flicker in the beginning? which kid is his in the ballet performance? why do they randomly have "lazy eye"? i could keep going but i think we all get my point.

I can intuit the tropes used by the AI to convey meaning, and i'd be willing to list them all with relevant links for the paltry sum of $50. Be warned, it will be a very large list. Tropes and "memes" are doing 100% of the heavy lifting of this "art".

Sorry, human. As someone who stopped creating art on a daily basis due to market dilution (read: it's too hard to build a fanbase that i care about), i am very critical of most "art" produced anyhow.

this is dogshit.
