Billy West isn't defending art. They are defending a costly signal. Years of training became a status ticket. AI erases the barrier and suddenly "Aunt Sadie" can compete. Humans overvalue visible struggle. We mistake the pain for the prize. True creativity was never the craft alone. It was vision. AI frees vision from gatekept toil. The outrage is status panic wearing an artist's mask. The future belongs to those who direct the new tools, not those who guarded the old locks. @TheBillyWest @alexutopia

Saying the quiet part out loud. After an online hate mob bullied Jorge R. Gutierrez out of using AI, voice actor Billy West chimes in and tells us the real reason: The collapse of the barrier to entry is not acceptable. Only established artists are allowed to create.

@TheoMediaAI The people win... let's not forget what's happening on the grassroot level. Sometimes the corporate battle is less important to the people on the ground.

The Big AI Video Editing Shootout! Omni vs Seedance vs Aleph 2! To be honest, I'm not a "One True Ring" guy, so this is more an exploration in the differences between the models-- Where they fly and where they falter. Link & FT'd Below!

At AI on the Lot today, Jon Erwin shared that this project employs ~600 people. When asked if he thinks AI is taking jobs in Hollywood, his response is “what jobs?” Most other productions have been outsourced to Eastern Europe. Hybrid production w/ AI brings jobs back to LA.

"House of David" has been a breakout hit for Amazon. The historical drama series attracted nearly 50M viewers in its first season and hit #1 on the U.S. charts. And the showrunner, Jon Erwin, says it couldn't have been made without AI. The future of filmmaking is hybrid.

This is what Steven Spielberg actually said about AI verbatim: “Don’t tell me how to write my dialogue for this character. Don’t tell me where the camera has to go. And also don’t tell me what the set should look like, unless AI is simply a tool in a large tool chest of the production designer. Use AI as a tool, but do not use AI as the final word on anything creative. That’s where I draw the line.” This is an admission that AI is acceptable in the workflow. Not a resistance to AI. This is being open to it but still making it clear that humans are very present in a workflow that includes AI. AI isn’t replacing creatives and storytelling it is helping to augment and help them.

Women given testosterone made significantly fairer offers leading to less conflict. Women who believed they got testosterone (placebo effect) acted more selfishly and aggressively.

Darles testosterona a las mujeres hace que se comporten de manera más justa y menos conflictiva. Sin embargo, las mujeres que creen que han tomado testosterona —pero que en realidad han tomado placebo— se comportan de manera más agresiva y más injusta.

Biggest takeaway from @aionthelot so far is that AI is bringing a TON of jobs back to LA. Long running productions that take years mean less turnover in talent. AI means more content, more artists, more jobs. Jevons paradox at work. Super optimistic vibes

Seedance 2.0 on release was so far ahead. Idk what they did, but it worked. Really the first model that can create believable enough consistent scenes in order to support a narrative. It still comes down to the person who wields the magic tool. But that gap will close.

Honestly I'd rather talk about movies than politics. I'd rather get a bunch of movie geeks arguing. The problem is they're so intertwined these days that I'll step on landmines no matter what. Plus a mayor election that affects the entertainment business. What a time.

Having an audience on X is much less valuable monetarily and socially than having an audience on any of the video platforms (YouTube, TikTok & Instagram)
