A.I.s making videos

Is the mind the same as the body? What is consciousness? Can machines have it?

A.I.s making videos

Post by Iwannaplato »

I've noticed for a few years a trend in videos where the use of English is odd. A lot of movie plot summary videos are like this on youtube. Often the speakers sound like native speakers but they use some odd grammatical constructions and also odd word choices. Here's a video from facebook with what sounds like a computer contructed vocal track and also odd English. I've wondered for a while if they are testing out A.I.s like this.

It is a possibility we have to consider. The plot thickens

Some certainly think it's on the horizon.

There seem to be apps.

The ones in youtube are fairly sophisticated. They are choosing clips (or there is a human AI team), and picking what parts to describe (out of millions of possible details and then they have the voice overs.
I have no idea if that can be handled by AIs alone.

I also notice that the quality has improved in recent years. When I search for movie summary videos almost only recent ones come up. The grammar and word choices are not so odd, even if there is something off.
