Everything is Changing Fast. . .Again

If I showed you these a year ago, would you have thought a professional produced them?

Remember when ChatGPT came out 2.5 years ago. . .did it give you the complex feeling of awe-delight-dread?

That’s what I felt.

Last week, when Google Veo 3 came out and I saw the possibilities, it gave me 70% of that same feeling.

The awe and delight components are obvious: the novice in one domain can quickly become the master

The dread is that we are all running faster and faster until we all run off the cliff.

Massive job losses are inevitable (like the kind that can cause civil uproar in the streets); it’s only a matter of time.

Anyway. . .

Check out these awesome videos I made (if I may say so 🤠), and let me know which is better.

And yes, all of the content is AI generated.

A)

B)

The first is a dramatic ad, showcasing the new groundbreaking feature at Holy Habits: dynamic, voice-guided prayer.

The second is like what would happen if J.R.R. Tolkien and Terrence Malick co-produced a movie on the battle in becoming a saint.

Which do you like better? What do you feel when watching these?

P.S. I don’t know if you’ve noticed (it might not be obvious in the email format of this newsletter), but I’ve introduced a new section on this substack: Drago’s Assistant

That’s where I put content whose ideas I create, but whose actual writing I let the AI do.

I put it in its own section so you can know what’s 100% my voice, and what’s silicone…

The post you’re reading here is 100% the real me, baby.

Except for those videos, I guess. . .
