| These are beautiful.
|
| Right now, the biggest issue with AI generation seems to be
| lacking the ability to generate a visual consistency with
| backgrounds, character faces, etc.
|
| Without the consistency, it's really hard to a movie with any
| sort of narrative.
|
| Without that, you're stuck with these small clips of 4 seconds.
|
| I've seen some resort to face swapping for post processing, but
| it's very tedious at the moment.

|
| Considering how many cuts are in modern movies, 4 seconds might
| be all we need.

| Always Break Time is an AI anime on twitch that is pretty fun and

| Most of the content production industry is not going to survive

|
| You can produce your own hyper-customized content on-demand and

|
| From video games, to text based adventures, to porn - I'd be
| surprised if humans are going to be competitive with generative
| AI for much longer.
|
| Personally, I enjoyed going back and playing the old Pokemon
| games for nostalgia. Generative AI has completely displaced that
| genre for me. I can go on text-based adventures set in the world
| of Pokemon that have higher fidelity and degrees of freedom than
| any video game experience can provide.
|
| The prompt:
|

| game. The game is pokemon yellow. You will narrate the game and
| events and ask me for input to control the game. The gameboy was
| just turned on, go.
|
| A snippet from the adventure:
|
| (full adventure here:
| https://chat.openai.com/share/df0a1bef-229d-4f88-b25b-6e6af8...)
|
| > Although Professor Oak advised you to stay away from Mewtwo,
| you can't help but feel a sense of responsibility and curiosity
| about the enigmatic Pokemon. You decide to return to the cave and
| try to communicate with Mewtwo to understand its intentions.
|
| > Carefully making your way back to the chamber where you
| previously observed Mewtwo, you approach it with caution. As you
| get closer, Mewtwo seems to sense your presence and turns to face
| you. Its piercing eyes seem to stare straight into your soul.
|
| > You gather your courage and attempt to communicate with Mewtwo,
| hoping to understand why it's agitated and if there's any way to
| help. To your surprise, Mewtwo appears to be receptive to your
| efforts. Through a combination of gestures, body language, and
| psychic communication, you begin to establish a connection.
|
| > You learn that Mewtwo is indeed searching for something - a
| purpose and a place to belong. It feels isolated and
| misunderstood, and its immense power has brought it nothing but
| fear and mistrust from humans and Pokemon alike.
|
| > As you converse, it becomes clear that Mewtwo is not inherently
| malicious; it simply wants to find its place in the world. You
| offer your support and friendship, hoping that this connection
| will help Mewtwo find the understanding and peace it seeks.
|
| ...
|
| > You decide to invite Mewtwo to join your team and travel with
| you, hoping that together, you can help it find its purpose and
| place in the world. You extend the invitation, unsure of how
| Mewtwo will react.
|
| > To your surprise and relief, Mewtwo seems to consider your
| offer seriously. It studies you intently, as if trying to gauge
| your sincerity and trustworthiness. After a moment of tense
| silence, Mewtwo nods in agreement, accepting your offer to join
| your team.
|
| > With Mewtwo as a new member of your Pokemon team, you feel a
| mixture of excitement and responsibility. You know that having
| such a powerful Pokemon by your side could be both a blessing and
| a challenge, but you're determined to help Mewtwo find the
| understanding and acceptance it seeks.
|
| This is right after battling Misty, I go straight to Mewtwo, team
| up, and then steam roll the rest of the game and go on an epic
| quest of self discovery with Mewtwo.
|
| We find a bunch of ancient temples that are filled with
| manuscripts that talk about an ancient lost region. We go there
| and find it's the origin of all Pokemon, cut off from the world
| of humans and guarded by an ancient and mythical Pokemon Oriora.
|
| The game was an incredible experience - far better than playing
| the original cartridges for me.
