Fair

On the other hand, Video to google is much less relevant than text. But if OpenAI figuring out something from it to AGI, that would be a different story.




Youtube? Someone's going to make a tiktok like quick-feedback thing of purely generated stuff that learns what you like and tailors the generations to you, and, despite Google owning Youtube, OpenAI looks far closer to it than them.


Youtube is a video hosting platform, its advantage is in video delivery and ads. Why would a video generation software disrupts business?

Creating realistic video isn't hard even today, you can just do it on your phone and creating hours, hours of cat/dog videos. The hard part is to find a story to make it interesting. It could be possible in the future, like automatic film making, from script to realization, but that doesn't make YouTube's business go away either.

If those videos aren't hosted on YouTube.


How? Not hosting on the planets largest video platform because it is generated by OpenAI?


I would much rather pay to generate my own realistic videos based on my prompts than watch other people’s random creations (possibly filled with ads). When generation becomes great the motivation and need to store, retrieve and serve becomes less relevant.


Why would you give free money to YouTube if you control the content


YouTube is just another moat for Google to catch up to Sora.

But this time, Google is finally showing their war face instead of not trying hard to compete against Microsoft and OpenAI.
