more people will be able to create their own animated films without requiring studios, execs and all the gatekeeping and bs that comes with that.
that's why i think the future really will be in content curation.
unless these companies can find a way to block the average person from having access to the same level tools. which i think they will try and they probably can to some extent.
Once there is unlimited content, maybe I'll just go outside and watch the stars or something.
I mean already now you have an incredibly large fraction of sh*t on spotify, netflix etc. Will it matter if it goes up another factor of 1000x?
Meanwhile hopefully the really creative and interesting content creators will leverage the AI stuff to further take the art forward. They have much more ways to test out alternatives and scenes before committing to a $250M production shoot for example..
the bottleneck (as now) will be awareness. thats why content curation is important
so the question is who will be the gatekeepers of awareness.
right now its centralised platforms and influencer marketing.
maybe in future decentralised platforms will allow you distrubute content and get paid. something like farcaster is maybe a preview of that.
When the reality is that good AI tools will cause lots of projects to add video content where it wasn't before, or to spend more time creating high-quality video content. And this will undoubtedly involve some new labor.
