AI video technology can now automate many tasks, such as voice dubbing, lip synchronization, and creating videos with different textures. But after watching them, I'm left with one feeling: I don't want to watch them a second time. It's not that they're terribly wrong, but they're too much like a "machine that understands you" performing, rather than a "person like you."

This year, I've become increasingly aware of one thing: AI is taking over all quantifiable abilities, but it cannot replicate "feelings." What remains as humanity's final value is "aesthetics."

We used to say that "technology is hard currency," thinking that if we could code and understand models, we'd master the future.

Indeed, AI is devouring most of the workplace's execution abilities: writing weekly reports? GPT can generate them instantly, making PPTs? WPS intelligent assistant can format with one click; video editing? Runway can automatically generate scripts, effects, rhythm, and background music; even announcers are being replaced by digital humans, with pitch, lip sync, and even emotions all precisely in place.
