Film- och videoredigerare

Clee Torres (Måttlig) säger

"good enough" video editing will be the death of video content on the internet, and of most video editing jobs. not all video editors work on netflix shows. high production tv is not in danger of automation

Sane-Human-In-Insane-World (Måttlig) säger

Most people on this planet do not understand that 'Video Editing' is NOT just arranging clips on a timeline like in those typical talking heads YouTube videos but basically, it is storytelling in a creative manner.

Think of Film Editing or a Documentary. So many elements like different shots, camera angles, sfx, music, etc. need to be arranged creatively to tell a story in the best possible way. A lot of decision making is involved in every step.
This is purely art form and something which AI cannot replace...yet. Human brain is far more powerful for this type of task.

Repetitive tasks, yes...they can be automated with AI and it will help editors to reach their goal faster.

Craig C (Mycket troligt) säger

There are already examples of AI systems doing editing. see: Autopod.fm. it's only a matter of time until they are able to do more complex editing projects.

Antonio (Osäker) säger

I work in post, and unless AI software can adapt to network execs, producers and writers constantly changing their minds on an edit ranging from entire scenes to the most minute of things like a graphic or music placement, then I think the field is safe

Different people like different things. Although a lot of the field can be automated away today for short content like where people dont care too much like tiktoks, but as for narrative content, spatial reasoning is a requirement and the computer would have to derive spatial context from video clips.

Bob (Osäker) säger

I work as a Video Editor, in some ways we already use AI to assist our work but for it to completely replace the role - it could go either way, in my opinion. If AI continues advancing at the speed it is now, with no restrictions from outside parties, AI could definitely replace video editing as well as many other creative positions. If AI is based off a deep learning model of video editing techniques and studying workflows, it is frighteningly possible.

Jay (Måttlig) säger

AI will only get better and better.

Tyler Thompson (Låg) säger

Yes, you can automate a computer to skim through video and make the correct cuts/put them in sequence, but I highly doubt it will go anywhere any time soon.

Watson made a Horror trailer a decade ago, and we haven't seen another AI cut trailer since then or seen any AI even attempt to make anything longer or more complex than a trailer.

Hey maybe by the time I retire we'll finally see a big, AAA studio AI edited movie, but that would be the entire marketing point and when the movie flops because it's just poorly put together (or hell just not a good movie) the suits will shift all the blame to AI technology, which they'll drop faster than 2D animation and relegate it to the 2060 equivalent of Direct to DvD movies.

Shivam Pandey (Låg) säger

Because video editing is a job that involves feelings, we can sense the sound and the story being told.

We also know which clip fits better in a certain place, and which music and sound effect to use in the video.

AI has no emotions or feelings, so there's a very small chance, I think.

Gabe (Ingen chans) säger

Robots aren’t sophisticated enough to put together entire movies, let alone 10 minute big budget films. We’re probably safe until.. let’s say February 2nd, 2222

Preston (Mycket troligt) säger

We now have somewhat capable AI tools that can generate unique images and seemingly infinite permutations based on spoken or text inputs. The permutations take little time for AI to do on a single-image basis, and eventually, they will be able to do this at one image per 1/24th of a second, or 24 frames per second.

This will be challenging for a while, but eventually, the machine learning will have enough data to be able to reliably do this quickly. It will not replace anyone in Hollywood, except perhaps for certain classes of visual effects artists. However, it will replace over half of the video marketing industry.

As Google releases business-class versions of its Google Assistant that can have a conversation with a small business owner, find out what they want, and generate images and video creative for that business owner to serve in purchased digital advertisements. This will be an included service in order to sell more advertising to people who would have never had the funds to both purchase advertising and hire expensive marketing teams to create digital ads and videos.

Furthermore, the AI will be better at placing these ad buys than any human ever could. Already, we are almost there. And thus, all but the most expensive brands, primarily national brands, will replace their social media person or their small marketing team or even their regional marketing agency with one savvy person whose job it is to talk to an AI and get it to create the ads with the creative assets.

We are five years away from AI being able to create images at 24 frames per second, another two years from those videos being usable, another two years for them to be reliable, and then another one to three years for Google to figure out how to seamlessly integrate these learned machines into their ad platform.

It's not a total, across-the-board AI replacement, but the market for user-generated video will shrink dramatically.

Hritik Sethi (Ingen chans) säger

I don't think video editing is a skill that AI can ever master or even learn cause it requires creativity and anything that requires creativity can be best performed by humans at least for the upcoming 50 years or so...

Omar Guitouni (Ingen chans) säger

I don't think it will be templates to do all the work. Because in the end, it's your vision. A robot can't do it by itself.

Dusty (Ingen chans) säger

I don't think computer will be able to make magic in editing for a long time so for someone working CGI and big films are totally safe

An Amateur Artist (Ingen chans) säger

Art can only be done through approximation and not accuracy. The human mind is the only fit for this job. Except of course rotoscope and other non-thinking jobs can be done by automation.

Scottie Yang säger

There will be a certain percentage that will be automated. Will AI take over the film editor, features, shorts etc, I don’t believe so.

However I do believe AI will take over editing jobs in the digital content space. There’s already services out there doing this. When you need short micro content pieces for social, this is where I see it taking over.

neutralca (Måttlig) säger

Within complex implementation infrastructure in back end to illustrate simple interface it is likely to be taken in few years. The huge corporate brands already analyzing how people make videos in TIkTok, Instagram, Youtube and etc. Maybe in 3 or 6 years we will see there will be no necessary need for human effort or creativity to edit and monitor from premier pro or after effects... I am very pessimistic about this...

Philip Lepherd (Låg) säger

Many large and small aesthetic choices are made by an editor. An editor can take a story in any direction they wish. AI would not have the emotional intelligence to determine which.

MultimediaCreative säger

There will be significant automation of processes in the next 5 years, seeing what platforms like Tiktok are doing with background replacement & auto- masking its a bit terrifying actually. I think what will become available to everyday people outside of the industry in terms of software will limit willingness to spend on services from industry professionals, making it increasingly difficult to justify rates

Jacen (Mycket troligt) säger

Editing is super easy. Computers have the ability to learn
