First of all, the efficiency of making videos will change completely. In the video, Jim showed us that a shot which took 100 hours to make in 2023 can now be done by AI in just a few seconds. This is a huge impact. For people working in post-production, like special effects (VFX) artists or editors, their traditional skills might not be as important as before. If a machine can do the work of a whole team in one click, many people might lose their jobs.
Secondly, I think the “visual language“ of AI is becoming too smart. Before, we thought AI could only make random clips, but SeeDance 2.0 can actually “edit” like a human director. It understands how to cut between different angles while keeping the character the same. This means the professional “editing logic” that people study for years is now being learned by AI. To me, this feels like a “tsunami” because it changes the basic rules of how we create stories.
Another big impact is about personal data and copyright. I was shocked when the AI could copy Jim’s voice just by looking at his photo. Also, the AI knew what the back of their office building looked like because it was trained on their previous videos. This makes me feel that our hard work is just “food” for the AI to learn. In the future, it will be very difficult to protect our own creative ideas and even our own voices.
I believe SeeDance 2.0 is not just a tool, but a total change for the industry. While it makes creating videos much easier and faster, it also makes the future of human workers very uncertain. I feel that we are entering a new era where we must find a new purpose, because the old way of working might disappear very soon.
The Future of Video Production: From Passion to AI
I have been obsessed with video editing since primary school. For many years, making videos was my greatest hobby. In high school, I taught myself Adobe software like Premiere and Illustrator. When I went to university, I started learning more difficult tools, such as After Effects (AE) and Cinema 4D (C4D), to create animations and 3D models. However, the industry is changing very fast because of a new technology called SeeDance AI.
The Impact of AI In the past, video production required a lot of hard work. For example, a complex visual effects shot could take 100 hours to complete. Now, SeeDance AI can finish the same task in just a few seconds. Also, AI is becoming very “smart.” It can understand how to cut videos and keep the characters looking the same. This used to be a skill that professional editors studied for many years.
My Concerns I feel that this change is like a “tsunami.” I am worried about copyright and personal data. AI can copy a person’s voice or a building’s design very easily because it learns from our previous work. This makes the future of human workers very uncertain. Many traditional jobs in post-production might disappear soon.
In conclusion, SeeDance AI is not just a tool; it is a total change for the industry. Although it makes video editing faster, it also creates new challenges for students like me. We are entering a new era. We must find a new purpose and learn how to work with AI, because the old way of working is going away.
