I've asked Gemini for a summary and it's pretty spot on:

This video is about AI generated videos and how they have become very realistic.

The speaker, Marques Brownlee, discusses a new AI model called Sora that can generate videos from text input. He shows examples of videos generated by Sora, including one of a woman walking down a Tokyo street, a car driving up a mountain road, and a litter of puppies playing in the snow. He points out that these videos are still not perfect, but they are much better than what was possible just a year ago.

He discusses the implications of this technology, both good and bad. On the one hand, it could be used to create fake videos that could be used to deceive people. On the other hand, it could be used to create stock footage that is more affordable and accessible than ever before. Brownlee concludes by saying that this technology is still in its early stages, but it has the potential to change the world in many ways.

Let's see. Spend several minutes composing a few paragraphs, followed by revising because of errors in composition, spelling,or grammar...or simply spend a few seconds with AI. Work smarter not harder.

It is. It's just that 99% of the work has been automated away.
