Started with the idea of generating comics with GPT4 and Midjourney, ended up with an animated show!
The results are both surprisingly good and very, very cringe.
In this post I explain the basic concept, thoughts?
Before you say it: The idea is not to put together an automated content farm, I'd like for this to be a tool I can use to develop more consistent stories in the future.
Dead, but we're heading into new a new paradigm of hardware accelerators (encoders, decoders, AI-optimized chips, multi-die GPUs, ...) and new packaging systems (M1 SoC's, GPU Chiplets, ...), all powered by what was previously the big bottleneck, interconnection within these components (AMD's Infinity Fabric, Apple's UltraFusion, ...)
There are a few reasons that I am excited for this, none of which have to do with actually using logic pro or final cut on an ipad.
1. This is an excellent signal that iPads can get "real" software now, hopefully more companies start porting their desktop mac software to iPadOS
2. Apple will continute to keep MacOS and iPadOS separate rather than trying to combine them like a lot of people on the internet think they want, which is good.
3. WWDC is going to be an absolute banger this year if they are announcing something like this in a press release.

Looks like the latest generation of iPad Pro and MacBook Air have comparable CPU benchmarks.[^1][^2]
I'm with you in not getting it, though. Editing video on an iPad seems like it'd be a frustratingly constrained affair due to the UI. But I might just be getting old too.
