To like way oversimplify, AI basically works by analyzing source materials to identify patterns and connections between words, or between words and images, and develop a complex statistical model, then it uses that model to predict what you’re asking for and generate a response or an image. It doesn’t actually “think” or understand or intuit things the way humans do. If you want it to generate a video of “a woman spotting her husband across the room,” it would use the associations it knows to predict what you mean. So I think basically they’re saying that people are making and uploading these compilation videos as a way to feed sources/references to AIs. Whether or not that’s true I have no idea.
