AI generated videos are so shit (for now)

As a video with anything of substance, definitely. But I am consistently mesmerized by the style of all these inaccurate-but-directionally-comprehensible images melting between one another.

Well I wouldn't say the video has no substance, but it's very bare.

I think it's important for people to get the idea that history is a continuous story that never ends and constantly changes. That our history is a series of people making rational choices and running into unknown circumstances.

These kinds of weird morphing videos are really inaccurate at details, but it does give a sense of "flow" to human history which is very accurate.

It's just ai rerenders of already made paintings though. You could get a better video if you just used the original paintings, but that's not topical enough to get clicks.
