Prompt engineering is becoming a desired skill🫠
Yes, it's a bit more than just hitting the 'enter' key.
But not as complicated as actually doing the work yourself. That's the point. If you don't create the work, it can't be copyrighted.
Honestly I think this is a good compromise, and these companies are missing the point. Just use this technology to make more movies and TV shows. Stop milking the exact same movie for years.
Something from decades ago, where the actors and directors are all dead, shouldn't be copyrighted. I think that's too long anyway. It lets a few actors get a ton of money and stifles others. People want new shit anyway.
Why not just hire actors full time and make a new AI script every week? That's essentially what TikTok is, some new dumb idea done over and over by different people.
