This is the future! undoubtedly this is time and money-saving! It has certainly saved a lot of production costs and time by cutting out the need for Actors, Cinematographers, Singers, lyricists, props costumes, and other costs associated with filmmaking. Frankly, the song is really good and the music video looks great! The complex emotional narrative, the colors, the camera angles, also the backgrounds are mesmerizing. If I had seen this without knowing it was AI-generated, I would probably have thought it took a lot of production and post-production effort to make this video.
As Marshall McLuhan mentioned, “All media are extensions of some human faculty- psychic or physical.” We humans are continuously evolving creatures and according to that it makes us create extensions of our psychic senses. And this is an actual human need to experience art and creative output that is the expression and expansion of our feelings, our humanity, and our longing for connection. And ‘I can’t take it’ is the perfect result of Multimedia extension.
