Video Editing, enhance by AI


 


AI can be used in video editing to perform various tasks that would otherwise require a lot of manual work and expertise. Some of the ways in which AI can transform the video editing process are:


- Automated Video Editing: AI-powered video editing tools use algorithms that automatically identify and extract the most relevant parts of raw footage, such as objects, people, and backgrounds. Once the relevant parts are identified, the AI algorithms can also automatically assemble the footage into a coherent and engaging video. This can save a lot of time and effort for video editors who need to sift through hours of footage and make creative decisions. 

- Facial Recognition: AI can also use facial recognition technology to detect and track the faces of people in videos. This can enable video editors to apply various effects and adjustments to specific faces, such as changing expressions, swapping faces, or adding digital makeup. Facial recognition can also help with lip-syncing, as AI can match the mouth movements of a person to the audio track. 

- Color Correction: AI can also help with colour correction, which is the process of adjusting the colours and tones of a video to make it look more natural and consistent. AI can analyse the colours of different scenes and shots and automatically apply the appropriate adjustments to balance them. AI can also suggest optimal colour settings based on the mood and genre of the video.  

- Audio Editing: AI can also assist with audio editing, which is the process of enhancing and modifying the sound quality and effects of a video. AI can use speech-to-text transcription to generate captions and subtitles for videos. AI can also use text-to-speech synthesis to generate realistic voices for characters or narrators. AI can also use sound recognition to identify and remove unwanted noises or add sound effects. 

- Object and Scene Recognition: AI can also use object and scene recognition technology to identify and classify the different elements in a video, such as animals, vehicles, buildings, landscapes, etc. This can help video editors to apply filters, effects, or animations to specific objects or scenes. For example, AI can add rain or snow to a scene, or make an object disappear or explode. 

- Video Stabilisation: AI can also help with video stabilisation, which is the process of reducing or eliminating camera shake or motion blur in videos. AI can analyse the motion of the camera and the objects in the video and apply corrections to smooth out the movements and make the video more stable and clear. This can improve the quality and professionalism of videos shot with handheld devices or drones. 

- Auto Reframe: AI can also help with auto reframe, which is the process of changing the aspect ratio of a video to fit different platforms or devices. For example, a horizontal 16:9 video may need to be converted into a vertical 9:16 video for social media platforms like Instagram or TikTok. AI can automatically identify the focal point of action in each shot and keep it visible as it changes the aspect ratio. This can save video editors from having to manually adjust each shot and keyframe motion edits. 


AI is changing the game for film and video creation by making it faster and easier to organise clips and craft perfect edits. Whether you work on short social videos or feature-length films, AI functionality will shave time off your editing process and open the door to new creative possibilities.

The AI Dilemma and "Gollem-Class" AIs

From the Center for Humane Technology Tristan Harris and Aza Raskin discuss how existing A.I. capabilities already pose catastrophic risks to a functional society, how A.I. companies are caught in a race to deploy as quickly as possible without adequate safety measures, and what it would mean to upgrade our institutions to a post-A.I. world. This presentation is from a private gathering in San Francisco on March 9th with leading technologists and decision-makers with the ability to influence the future of large-language model A.I.s. This presentation was given before the launch of GPT-4. One of the more astute critics of the tech industry, Tristan Harris, who has recently given stark evidence to Congress. It is worth watching both of these videos, as the Congress address gives a context of PR industry and it's regular abuses. "If we understand the mechanisms and motives of the group mind, it is now possible to control and regiment the masses according to our will without their

Beware the Orca, the challenge to ChatGPT and Palm2 is here

  So Google's 'we have no moat' paper was correct. If you train an LLM wisely then it's cost effective and cheap to produce a small LLM that is able to compete or even beat established, costly LLMs, as Microsoft has just found. It's another excellent video from AI Explained, who goes through some of the training procedures, which I won't get into here. Orca, is a model that learns from large foundation models (LFMs) like GPT-4 and ChatGPT by imitating their reasoning process. Orca uses rich signals such as explanations and complex instructions to improve its performance on various tasks. Orca outperforms other instruction-tuned models and achieves similar results to ChatGPT on zero-shot reasoning benchmarks and professional and academic exams. The paper suggests that learning from explanations is a promising way to enhance model skills. Smaller models are often overestimated in their abilities compared to LFMs, and need more rigorous evaluation methods. Explana

What is happening inside of the black box?

  Neel Nanda is involved in Mechanistic Interpretability research at DeepMind, formerly of AnthropicAI, what's fascinating about the research conducted by Nanda is he gets to peer into the Black Box to figure out how different types of AI models work. Anyone concerned with AI should understand how important this is. In this video Nanda discusses some of his findings, including 'induction heads', which turn out to have some vital properties.  Induction heads are a type of attention head that allows a language model to learn long-range dependencies in text. They do this by using a simple algorithm to complete token sequences like [A][B] ... [A] -> [B]. For example, if a model is given the sequence "The cat sat on the mat," it can use induction heads to predict that the word "mat" will be followed by the word "the". Induction heads were first discovered in 2022 by a team of researchers at OpenAI. They found that induction heads were present in
