Spatial Artificial Intelligence in Video Generators and Beyond
In recent years, the development of video generators has garnered significant attentions both among the public and the academia because of its potential of paradigmatic changes in the industry of video and film production. Current AI video generators still yield to many front-end technical limitations, especially their capacities to understand complicated spatial relationships between characters, objects, and environments in the generated videos, causing the problem of inconsistency and uncontrollability in moving images. However, the recent development of spatial artificial intelligence and world models may provide a solution by building virtual studios. These rapid developing fields may lead to a wide scope of achievements beyond video and film production to autonomous systems, metaverse, and even Artificial General Intelligence. However, these technologies may also result in intensifying problems of misinformation and disinformation, which demand the collaboration between human intelligence and artificial intelligence for transformative changes.
