Is Seeing Believing? AI Videos Look Extremely Real
Over the past year, the quality of AI-generated videos has improved to the point where it is very hard to distinguish them from real footage. Recently, an English TV channel aired a show about AI, and at the end, the presenter revealed she was not a real person.
Deep Learning and Generative AI
AI tools typically rely on "deep learning," where programs analyze vast amounts of data to detect patterns that humans might overlook. These patterns are stored in a "model," which the AI then uses to generate new content in innovative ways.
Generative AI creates new text, images, music, videos, and other media that did not exist before by applying these learned patterns.
Advances and Applications
In recent years, major tech companies have dedicated significant resources to developing generative AI models. These models generate original works from brief prompts.
The powerful capabilities of these tools have sparked concerns about potential job losses due to AI in the future.
OpenAI’s ChatGPT stands out as one of the most well-known models. It can rapidly write code, research papers, poems, and songs, as well as answer difficult questions and solve complex math problems.
Many large tech firms now have their own iterations of text-generating AI models, which are being integrated into various applications. For example, Google has even replaced its traditional search engine with an AI-powered model.
Author’s Summary
AI-generated videos and content have become remarkably convincing, raising both excitement and concerns about their impact on society and jobs.
