Big brain tech dude got yet another clueless take over at HackerNews etc? Here's the place to vent. Orange site, VC foolishness, all welcome.

Whatever shambling corpse of Toys "R" Us still exists has released "the first OpenAI SORA generated brand commercial."
It looks absolutely dire, particularly in motion, but posters are still falling over themselves to call it "cool" and "exciting" or claim that people "might not notice" that it's complete and utter arse.
That picture... Harry Potter and the Hole of Ketamine.
"Drugs are like that!"

Oh my fucking god I know that video
this is the entire pitch of genAI, this is beat for beat a perfect analysis 4 years before all of this bullshit actually happened
Nah, they'd be able to immediately tell from just how fucking garbage it is
It makes me wonder if these people have ever seen a moving picture before, because being caught up in the slack-jawed astonishment of a novel experience seems the only plausible explanation for thinking this looks good.
Has someone tried generating a train running at the camera and seeing if one of the AI bros dies of a heart attack?
I see Sora still hasn't cracked the nut of having longer output windows. or at producing things that aren't deathly boring.
and what the fuck is up with that music? it sounds like a medical commercial selling hope

AI or not this is an incredibly depressing advert, what the fuck. They went for whimsy and produced an elegy.
the thing is, people are again taking this as direct output of the regurgitating machine. i wouldn't be at all surprised if there was a ton of editing going on to fix all of the most glaring issues, just like when sora was first announced.
Yes you can very clearly see what they've added in, there's tons of matte stuff going on and cliparts of floating toys and whatever
If you look at the bottom right that's exactly the case. They didn't just type a prompt in SORA and call it a day.
