| > None of the music videos were great Glad they acknowledge this. Curious how much time in addition to tokens this costs. If you have to spend $25 and wait 45 minutes to get a basically unwatchable video, I'm not worried about indie film makers being replaced just yet... |

| Directors and editors using Seedance can fire the film studio. This is a fundamental shift in how storytelling is funded and made, not in who does the driving. Same as is happening with code. |

| This wasn’t possible even a year ago, with the speed of things changing and how much money is spent on movies is there really a doubt that someone will be able to make $100 million movie for less than $1 million in token spend? |

| ▲ | vkou 6 hours ago | parent | prev [-] | | Do you... Have a lot of professional experience with making $100 million-budget movies? | | |
| ▲ | fragmede 5 hours ago | parent [-] | | Even small budget indie flicks, when filmed in LA, have a ridiculous amount of paperwork and dealing with unions. Which isn't surprising, since it's an established industry there. Spending $1 million for each day of filming is totally achievable. I don't have personal experience with this but I know some people in the industry and have had conversations with them. Was background/extra in a movie. An AI director/producer doesn't have to deal with the human aspect, actor and other people's egos and clashing behavior. There are moments of film gold that are the result of human actor's human personalities, so we'd lose out on that though. |

| I'm classically trained and I honestly can't really tell how these are worse than the human produced ones. They all look kinda the same to me. |

| ▲ | beepbooptheory 6 hours ago | parent [-] | | Classically trained in music videos?? | | |
| ▲ | qurren 3 hours ago | parent | next [-] | | No, as in classical music. The analog kind. | | |
| ▲ | altcognito 2 hours ago | parent [-] | | So, how is that relevant to the part that is generated by AI? | | |
| ▲ | qurren an hour ago | parent [-] | | I honestly can't tell a good music video from a bad one. I don't know what makes a music video "good". These AI generated ones seemed pretty good to me, of the same caliber as those Michael Jackson or "Beez in the trap" things. It's all just butt shaking and sunglasses in Philips Hue lights chanting some meaningless words. |

| ▲ | altcognito 2 hours ago | parent | prev | next [-] | | I'm seeing these type of comments a lot more. A type of comment where it seems like the "user" (commentor) makes a categorically wrong comment about the linked article that would be sort of right if it were a different medium. Clearly whatever was used here triggered on the "music" part, but didn't understand what the article was really about. Typically it goes beyond just not reading the article (as in this case) I'd assume that it was a bad LLM take, but it looks like the rest of the comments are normal. | | |
