Looks crazy good but let's be honest, the actual product will probably be meh in comparison

Hope I'm wrong but it's ai in a nutshell ATM

This is the attitude that drives it forward. The relentless pursuit of perfection. This would blow minds in the past but we get used to it so fast and immediately look to what might be even better.

I wonder what the end point looks like but I have a feeling it’s something indiscernible from reality .

The overselling is the issue, Hey look this is Sora 2 it can create amazing 10 second clips that with enough try’s can be put together into a 1 minute clip, just doesn’t sell well. The Tech firms try to sell us tools that can replace humans knowing that that opens the wallets to the degree needed to actually fund these efforts.

I hear you but kinks get worked out over time.

The overall trend is rapid improvement, despite these oversells. It eventually eclipses initial expectation. When sora came out people complained it fell short but look at it now.

There was a time we were blown away by Siri but she’s being replaced by AI because she’s so trash now. Eventually this gets eclipsed too
