Veo doesn’t work. You get something that looks like it came out of a good camera with good lighting — because it was trained on scenes with good lighting. But it can’t hold continuity for seven seconds. It can’t act. The details are all wrong. And they still have the nonsense text problem.

AI video generators are the same. They’re toys. You can make cool little scenes. In a super limited way.

There is no reason to think it’ll be better next year either.
