The Magician's New Assistant, my first Youtube video in a long time, is now online! And you can watch it here!

Yes, I did use AI, but this thing is the exact opposite of "AI slop." It's more like an AI souffle, with every detail lovingly fussed over. I spent days and days trying to make it perfect, putting in at least as much work as I used to do on my old video edits. It was challenging but fun, and this way of working opens up new ideas I never could've done by editing existing footage. I hope you love it!

Gonna be honest, if you put "just as much effort" into this as you put into your old video edits, then you saved no effort and instead just wasted a ton of precious resources to use AI.

I'm hardly AI's biggest cheerleader but it can be a very useful tool, the genie is out of the bottle and I think it'd be pointless to go back to my old ways of doing things. With my old edits, I was very limited using existing footage. There was a lot I simply couldn't do. There were also endless copyright strikes, some of my best videos got taken down and I couldn't post them anywhere. Using AI (sometimes in combo with existing footage) offers a lot more freedom in various ways. And as for using resources, I don't dismiss that but my understanding is that some of the bad news is overblown by people who just hate AI. I've heard that a few hours of AI use is comparable to the same time you'd spend watching Netflix. It isn't that AI itself is such a drain, it's that SO MANY people are using it. So I don't feel a lot more guilty using AI than I'd feel for watching a streaming show. We're all slowly killing the planet, no matter what we do. No ethical consumption, and all that.
