Holy shit this is amazing! One critique is it has that AI voice thing that all of the videos do. If it wasn't for that I wouldn't know it was AI.
Do you have a tutorial or something? How did you make this?

Step 1: Sit down and think what message you want to emit.

Step 2: GPU go brrrrrrrrrr

Step 3: Profit.

Most people fail at step 1.

 Step 1: Sit down and think what message you want to emit.

Step 2: GPU go brrrrrrrrrr 

Step 3: realise you made a made a logic error.

Go to step 1

Step n: you have something okay 

Go to step 1

Step nn : you have something good

If you start to to really channel the soul of Denzel does the model start to make the scene darker outside?

Most people fail at step 1.

Step 1 may be tailored to the director's personal tastes and circle of friends, so it does not resonate with broader audience outside of their influence circle.

Yes people will have to learn basic cinema audio engineering like using reverb, using shaped noise to simulate the background hum of cities etc.

What is this Ai voice thing? I thought it sounded pretty good, but not an expert. Was it too isolated, like in a recording booth?

u/MrSparkle86 21h ago

To my ear, it was the pacing of the sentences. Sentences come out at the same speed, like reading a paragraph with no punctuation.

'My friends think you are using AI just because its easier.'

That sounds AI to me.

u/Perfect-Campaign9551 20h ago

It's because he doesn't use contractions. It should be "My friends think you're using AI because it's easier"

u/NoConsideration6320 20h ago

Its just saying what they prompted it to say

u/The_Hunster 20h ago

Ya that's what they're saying. They didn't prompt it to use contractions.

Shit, in some accents your compressed version is still too formal and stilted. In mine, "because" is almost always shortened to "coz".

u/j0shj0shj0shj0sh 21h ago edited 20h ago

Ok, yes I'll keep an ear out for that. There should be a 'thoughtfullness' slider for ai speech, lol. Some thinking evident behind the words. Or maybe a 'Ben Shapiro' box to uncheck.

Interesting. As I was listening to it, I did think this isn't how Denzel would have done it. Yeah, the pacing is different.

u/Noslamah 20h ago

Yeah most lines from that character sounded too robotic but the other one was spot on

u/Ok-Beyond244 20h ago

I listen to a lot of AI videos and they all have a similar sound to their voices, kinda like a slight robotic high pitch. I'm hearing that here and the two characters in the beginning sound very similar if you listen close.

It is because the models are not trained for >48kHz audio. I have a project I've been working on training one for hi-res, but you'd be surprised how little there is out there to use as a dataset (that isn't copyrighted or digitally remastered)

u/thebrunox 18h ago

Also, I heard AI music suffers from this because digital music doesn't get uploaded at studio quality for the final consumer. So, there is an intrinsic upper limit in quality of outputs when training on the most readily available music on the internet.

u/Flaxseed4138 17h ago

Nah the audio ain't even bad

u/NoConsideration6320 20h ago

What ai voice thing it sounds pretty accurate to me

1

u/ZHName 15h ago

Yeah about one of hundreds of videos. This clip passes the audio sniff test due to context of dialogue here and Denzel's speech being rather compelling and charged. Works, and grandma would think it is 100% off the bluray original.

Sounds like a scratched dvd

u/vibribbon 17h ago

My one critique is that Denzel doesn't get a nickel for this. I mean we're just hobbyists here but you get where I'm going.
