This Arizona creator posts viral AI-generated videos. He says there’s no good future with AI

The Sora app from OpenAI, released last week, has become the top-ranked app in Apple’s App Store. This application allows users to create AI-generated videos in various styles, leading to an increase in highly realistic yet not authentic videos on social media platforms. This phenomenon has been informally termed “AI slop,” and despite its derogatory connotation, such videos have garnered millions of views, generating income for some users.

One content creator, Eric, who runs the account Infinite Unreality, shared his experiences with generating these types of videos. He discussed the appeal of using AI for video production, noting the ease and speed with which content can be created compared to traditional methods. He acknowledged that while he initially sought views and attention, he has since attracted interest from businesses looking for AI-generated marketing content.

Eric explained that most of his video ideas come from AI-generated prompts and that he does not create all the content manually, instead relying on AI to assist in the production process. Despite concerns about viewers mistaking AI-generated content for real events, he maintains transparency by labeling his videos as AI-generated.

Overall, Eric recognizes the rapidly evolving nature of AI technology and its potential impact on video content creation. He expressed uncertainty about the long-term sustainability of his niche but noted the increasing demand for AI in marketing and video production.
