The rise of AI-generated video has taken the internet by storm, with enthusiasts experimenting with popular meme templates to create uncanny and often unsettling results. Luma Labs’ “Dream Machine” has led the charge, allowing users to generate videos with just a few prompts. However, even the most impressive results have a fever dream quality to them, with subjects shapeshifting and exhibiting unnatural movements. The “distracted boyfriend” meme, for instance, has been warped into a surreal and jarring video, while a Captain Picard reaction GIF has been transformed into a completely different character. While some are impressed by the technology, others have criticized its environmental impact and lack of artistic integrity. As AI-generated video continues to improve, it’s worth asking whether it’s truly worth watching, or if it’s just a novelty that will eventually wear off.
