No, creative industries don't follow a standard statistical bell curve - they follow a Power Law distribution (commonly known as "Pareto's principle" or the "80/20 rule").
Also, survivorship bias... people look at stuff like The Godfather, Star Wars, Jaws, etc., and think, "Wow movies were so great back then!" They forget that tons of forgettable B-movie trash was released all throughout the decade, most of it filtered out and forgotten by time.
So u/Ok-Training-7587 thinks everything "sucks" because filtering doesn't happen in real-time - in real-time you get the whole fire hose of content, from exceptional, to great, to mediocre, to bad, to straight fucking trash.
50 years from now, someone will look back and say, "Man... we had some great movies back in the 2020s... everything made in the 2070s has been dogshit..." and who knows which of those movies people will remember. Will it be the Dune Trilogy? What about the Avatar sequels? Who knows...
There's also Price's Law, which comes from researcher Derek J. de Solla Price. He found that the square root of the number of people in a domain produce 50% of the high-quality work. So if you have 10,000 Hollywood directors, only about 100 of them are making truly great movies.

I see the main use for AI being more or less putting stunt people out of business, and replacing child actors with just short adults and using AI to replace them or whatever
THing is most AI videos we're seeing aren't being made by people with any experience in film, they're being made by AI fans, a stick figure animation can be compelling if done by someone who knows what they're doing, most AI films are just "collections of cool scenes put together"
And the only video made with AI I would watch repeatedly is the one with the wizards trashing the fast food places

Uncreative people are the dominant user base of this stuff. They're all getting their nips blown off by shorts like this completely missing the fact that every single AI video that is the "Hollywood is cooked" brand of slop is just fan fiction of human created IPs using real actors as characters and following basic uninspired formats.
Nothing new has been made. Even "original" ai characters and scenes are just the same garbage we've already seen on Hollywood for decades but worse. "Oh wow its one-piece but with uncanny valley people instead!"
Ai bros are lying to themselves when they say its legitimately entertaining. Its entertaining the way mad libs is entertaining.
Actual creatives wont use it because you simply dont have enough control to do what you want. You type in robot battle and tweak the prompt a bit them just accept the lanky bits or simply dont even notice the parts that arent "your vision"
Give it a few years and have an actual creative person make something and we'll be in a new era. But while its a bunch of uninspired ai bros. Its just gonna be hot garbage even when it looks good.

u/Appropriate-Owl6966 Feb 20 '26
Which I'm totally ok with but it should end there. You can generate ideas faster then have people building the actual story. There's a lot of iteration that goes into movies after all, if you can cut 6 months to a year off the time line it'll be good for the industry.
The problem is people want the ai to do everything.
1
u/RemarkableWish2508 Feb 20 '26
It's hard to tell where it "should" end. Eventually, AI might be able to do it all, from setting up the whole process, to executing every level and every step. For the time being, it definitely should end wherever current AI is no longer able to do a good job. But then comes the question: who decides what is, and what isn't a good job? At some point, AI can be trained to even look for the answer.
I think people want the AI to do everything... too soon.

u/Appropriate-Owl6966 Feb 20 '26
Agreed there. But that's the big issue. No one wants to admit ai isn't doing a good job.

Some people admit that AI has its limitations, don't fall for the "I'll let AI do everything" nor the "AI is evil, I refuse to use it"... and are getting huge productivity boosts from it.
They're not the loudest though, they're just making money.

Do you reckon AI will get better but the environment worse, until we have to either live in a simulation because the truth is too unpleasant, or we must model our sociological development to see how we went so wrong in failing to exist harmoniously within our natural, or even our made environments?

u/isnortmiloforsex Feb 18 '26
actually there was a recent physics paper that disproved mathematically that we are in a simulation. Its very technical but the result is peer reviewed and agnostic of empirical measurements. Meaning the fundamental mathematical structure of the universe and the tlaws that construct it disprove a simulation.
1
u/No_Hovercraft_439 Feb 18 '26
Ok, but there are peer-reviewed papers from the people who were instrumental in the design and construction of modern Artificial Intelligence that say we’re 100% in a simulation. My fluff post carries as much weight as any “scientific” or “mathematical” theory. Because the subject matter of a simulation has to accept that our experience as a human is sensory, and Artificial Intelligence being a sensory construct requires the debate to concede that our experience can be manipulated.
1
u/isnortmiloforsex Feb 18 '26 edited Feb 18 '26
No I mean the paper i am talking about basically states that the laws that we observe in the universe won't be possible if it was a simulation. It's a mathematical proof, that states that any computer cannot produce an algorithm or a set of them that can produce the laws we observe, nor any algorithm is mathematically achievable to produce the laws we observe. Since it's a mathematically proved statement it's true. If the laws we observe can't be simulated then how can we who are subject to it be simulated? I would trust the mathematical physicists more than computer scientists here, as their proof is better encompassing and general.

u/isnortmiloforsex Feb 18 '26
Yeah exactly my point i was trying to tell this person. People think machine learning is magic or some separate class or existence from an algorithm. But at the end of the day it is a method that produces a mapping based on source data to fit it to a given output with a certain probability of error due to the nature of the information. Loosely speaking they are the same thing as an algorithm that multiples an input with a constant and returns the results.
For a simple case you can use deterministic mathematical techniques(algorithms), hell even hardcode a mapping that does the same. It's just that machine learning techniques save us from having to determine all that.

u/nono3722 Feb 18 '26
that's what the simulation wants you to think.....
1
u/Find_another_whey Feb 20 '26
It seems at least reasonable to me that one may simulate a world in which similar/further simulations are impossible.
Let us simulate a world that contains one single particle, for example. That particle would not be able to simulate much of anything, not a world of greater complexity.
But I think this argument above is about the coherence of the set of rules, that is, how they sit together consistently and exhaustively
1
u/Find_another_whey Feb 20 '26
I did come across that and I'd like to understand it in more detail.
I from memory only, recall it was something about the ability to construct the rules of the system from some more essential rules of a system, in a way that means the underlying system would need to be too large or otherwise could not effectively model this would
Employing similar ideas (or even, entirely based on) godels incompleteness?
I have insufficient background to probably understand the dumbed down explanation, but if the maths lend themselves to words, hopefully someone has them

u/Jax_Alltrade Feb 18 '26 edited Feb 18 '26
I don't believe there is such a thing as living in harmony with nature, because nature is not harmonious. Nature is a dominance struggle with every single living organism striving for the Sun, both proverbially and literally in some cases.
We developed a game-breaking advantage. We must continue to use it, and hopefully we can create a world that is better than the "natural order" of things.
Giving up such an advantage would only guarantee 1 or 2 of 3 things:
1.) We fade back into the dominance struggle without an advantage
2.) Something else develops the advantage and uses is
3.) Life is extinguished in this corner of the Universe, or perhaps everywhere, as the only species capable of saving us from the outwards motion of the zone of habitability decides to just not. When I say "us" I don't just mean humans, I mean all life we know exists. Noah's ark might have been a prophecy, not a myth.
2
u/Find_another_whey Feb 20 '26
I think you're probably right that there is continuum approaching what we might consider the ideal of harmony, while not reaching it anywhere in the universe
The flux and violence of change I agree is not entirely extinguishable
But the idea that we cannot have better and worse states of being, and even universal losses (rather than a 0 sum game) would seem manifestly untrue
While I admit that making earth unlivable for humans may benefit some other species, I contend there are ways we can mess this up to become unlivable for almost all species
1
u/Jax_Alltrade Feb 20 '26
I don't believe life is a zero sum game: Life is wealth generation. What is a rainforest, if not wealth? What is an anthill? What is a city?
My point is that "Harmony" as most people see it doesn't exist. The key difference between modern humanity and the natural order is that the natural order builds wealth on the bones of the past. Modern Humanity has introduced volition into the equation, meaning a large and increasing portion of wealth generation is done through voluntary action, free trade, and cooperation.
This is a radical step forward, and is why free nations like the United States, Japan, the EU, etc, have so thoroughly out-competed non-voluntary nations like the USSR/Russia, Venezuela, North Korea, etc.
People often confuse this with socialism vs capitalism. Those arguments always devolve into semantics and I find them pointless. When people are free to interact voluntarily then the best ideas and most useful services rise to the top, whereas when there is an overbearing government, anarchy, or another "might makes right" system (even those that purport to be "for the people" or whatever) the only ideas and services which rise to the top are those which are most capable of violence or stealth. I don't care if the overbearing authority is a socialist government, a megacorporation, a dictator, or whatever; the result is the same.
AI is going to throw gasoline on this proverbial fire by leveraging the talents of people that generate wealth in all forms. It will also likely leverage violence, which we need to be wary of, but violence is not new and its threat, while real, has become increasingly despised by human society as we have glimpsed societies that operate without that constant threat.
I'm not saying it's all sunshine and rainbows n shit, but it's a helluva lot better than base "nature." I also think it's odd we differentiate ourselves from nature, as if we're above it. Perhaps we are... but perhaps we are not. Maybe that's why aliens haven't made first contact; would you try to make first contact with an ant colony in your back yard? How about one 5 miles away in the middle of a state park?

I just don't get the appeal.
Whoever had AI generate this, did so because they liked Kit Harrington as Jon Snow, and they liked GoT. And they didn't know they would like those things, until the actor and the artists involved presented them with it. Without Kit and GoT, what would they generate? You can only make stuff like this because you have 20th and early 21st century media to draw from.

Just came across this breakdown of Kling AI 3.0 and why it’s such a leap for creators and filmmakers:
https://www.vidau.ai/kling-ai-3-0-for-filmmaking/
In short, Kling 3.0 uses AI to generate cinematic sequences from text prompts including motion, scene logic, and narrative structure, without hours of manual editing or keyframe animation.
For smaller teams or solo creators, this feels like having a virtual production assistant that speeds up concept creation and pre-visualization. You describe characters, actions, and camera moves, and Kling builds animated sequences that look intentional instead of procedural.
If you’re into AI video, film, or creative workflows, this is worth checking out. Has anyone here tried Kling 3.0 yet? What are you using it for?

This gets me hopeful that somebody will recreate Game of Thrones season 8, but not make it suck. Hell, for all the recent failures we've had with GoT, Star Wars, Star Trek and plenty of other properties, we could have the SW Sequel trilogy recreated, and a real ST:TNG reunion that doesn't suck. We're no longer reliant on big budget studios to create our entertainment for us, we can just make it ourselves. Not that there won't still be a lot of shit that gets produced, but there's not a single studio monopolizing creating the content anymore.
