the lower end of the market will get bored and slowly disappear whereas the professional film making community will exploit what is a new tool.

I'm not convinced that the lower end will "get bored" of their slop, but if ai generation can be priced to include legal training material, power consumption, and carbon cleanup, then we might be able to price some of it out of existence.

I don’t see an end to AI either, - the complete opposite and it will take over huge chunks of all kinds of things with one person taking what was previously the jobs of perhaps dozens of people.

I think it’s an unstoppable monster because when it comes down to it, what is right or good or any other factor, just gets swatted aside increasingly when it comes to both corporate and personal greed/entitlement.

I’m looking forward to 100ft Ana de Armas with blue hair on neighbouring apartment blocks. I live in a cottage in the woods, but I live in hope…

I also feel, a hundred foot tall version of Ana de Armas is an acceptable use of ai...😉

Speaking of power consumption. When the new / reconditioned or whatever you want to call it nuclear reactor comes online at thee mile island in the next year or two, all of its power is sold to microsoft to power its data servers / Ai. Thats 800 megawatts a year for twenty years, Ai is surely is one hungry little bugger.

Back in 1985, I saw a documentary about a guy who was able to travel back in time in a crappy steel sportscar with only 410 megawatts more than that.  Maybe that guy could go back in time and stop AI before it even started!

 It worked in all the terminator documentaries !!

No crappy steel sports car but i do have a crappy steel suv. Nearing 60, i'll take the comfortable outlander. The  DeLorean looks a bit cramped.
