What do you think?

Auto-cuts, B-roll selection, music sync. Most YouTube essay channels run AI editing pipelines now.


Current AI systems can perform various tasks related to video editing, such as trimming, cutting, and arranging clips, but editing raw footage into a coherent short film with prompts alone is still a challenging task. While AI-powered video editing tools can analyze footage and make suggestions for editing, they often require significant human input and oversight to produce a polished final product. Recent advancements in AI, particularly in the areas of computer vision and natural language processing, have enabled the development of more sophisticated video editing tools that can respond to prompts and make editing decisions, but these tools are not yet widely available. The ability of AI to edit raw footage into a coherent short film with prompts alone is an area of ongoing research and development.
