It’s pretty terrifying when you think about the possibilities of deception. And also how throwaway content is going to become. We are going to generate content at a volume orders of magnitude larger than our already current excessive volume, and finding the stuff that has real meaning and a real message is going to be even harder.

Also, artists whose work and styles fed this will be put out of business without ever being paid for their work that was used to train these models. 🫤

you raise a crazy good point - the amount of data youtube generates is staggering and that includes a high barrier to entry. if sora allows anyone to just cut shit and upload it, we're going to outpace the rate at which data-free hardware is manufactured.
