I was inspired by last week’s article on Bloo, and it got me thinking about on what AI content creation meant in this new age of AI.
I generally have a thesis that anything human will be at a premium. But let’s dissect what that really means.
I’ll explain everything through the lens of Youtube content creation.
First there’s the presenter. That’s the person on camera. The image of the person.
It usually is patterned from someone real, though it doesn’t have to be. Bloo, for example, isn’t a real person, but yours truly doing The Down Lo Show is.
Then there’s the voice of that presenter.
Again, it usually is from someone real, but it doesn’t have to be. Bloo’s voice, using the above example, is supposedly his real voice.
Then the backdrop of the video, or the design of it.
This doesn’t necessarily need a human to be a part of it, though it needs humans in the sense that the prompt or design has to be human-led.
Then there’s the producer function in the back-end with voices, sound, and other effects, putting the above together.
A human in the back-end needs to be there to accomplish this task, but it’s not necessarily critical for a specific human to be there.
So if we were to distill the above to a unified theory - where is a specific human absolutely critical, and where is it a nice to have?
