I actually posted this song along with photographs that I found on the internet right after 9/11 happened it's a song that was written by a friend named Chris Heifner anyways we reconnected last week and I redid the video for the song using AI which I've been doing quite a bit of lately and here it is because it's copyright and by him I don't make any money from YouTube however I would really love some feedback what you think about it please don't be too brutal I know some of you hate AI thanks

i think we should ban AI videos being posted, but it’s not my decision

I watched a YouTube video of some Indian “doctor” talking about the health benefits of seeds. The AI was really awful. The funniest thing is the AI actor kept saying “asterisk asterisk” which was not in the script and then he would say “three zero zero” instead of “three hundred.” He couldn’t keep his hands still. It was awful.

Some of the AIs I’ve seen are better than a lot of the memes are...

I’ve made one or two AI shorts.

I see this all the time with AI videos, when they try to say the say, for example the year 1945, is “One thousand nine hundred and forty-five”

Sometimes the AI video is bonafide news in and of itself. A prominent recent example is the "Amelia" video.

This was very meaningful. Lyrics or closed captioning are preferred.

Has AI done away with punctuation?

They often can’t pronounce words either, like confusing hard and soft ‘g’.

What’s really funny is when they get it right, and then later get it wrong in the same video...

On Twitter I came across a post that suggested changing the Lyrics for the ‘Money For Nothing’ song to apply to the Somalia fraud in Minnesota. I’ve created the complete lyrics but I’m looking for someone to turn it into a music video. Interested?

I find the "Amelia" thing both fascinating and hilarious-I started a thread on this the day before yesterday: LINK TO FR THREAD: We Are All Amelias Now

As I said, it the the Leftist cigar that just keeps blowing up in their faces!

Yeah, well, they are still in power, and will be for the forseeable future.

I get the irritation people have with AI from a practical perspective-it would be one thing if it were outright labeled as AI, but it often isn't.

It is irritating with things like wildlife videos on YouTube where it often isn't labeled, and I got taken in by this one a while back:


LINK: Then, a Shark Jumped Out

It is a very cool and well done video, and quite scary, but...it is AI. They did not brand it as such, and I found that irritating. (Great White sharks actually DO things like sticking their heads out of the water to look around, so it wasn't a huge stretch)

I only realized it when I went back after the fact and drilled down on the company that made the videos, and they specialize in making wildlife videos that let people see wildlife in a way they are never likely to. That's okay, I guess but things like that are all over YouTube now, and I find that irritating.

But in the case of contentious or political things, it is downright dangerous and should be banned or mandated that it be labeled as AI generated. This is not supporting freedom of speech. It is against willful propaganda which CAN cause serious problems.

As for your video-I thought it was fine...relaxing to listen to, and the imagery was interesting if somewhat placid and unconnected, but...that is okay for a video like that!

However, I do admit, the homeless looking guy in the alley made me think: What is he putting RFK Jr. in this video as a homeless guy for???

I don’t know if AI has done away with punctuation, but the OP sure has!

Does it have:
a fat delivery guy falling through a porch?
bad things happening to Steven Hawking?
animated characters fleeing from police?
