The Discontent with VEO3’s ‘We’re All Prompts’ Video Trend

In the ever-evolving landscape of online content, certain themes tend to emerge and proliferate—a trend that many content creators hop on in a bid to garner views and engagement. One such trend that has recently sparked debate is the series of VEO3 videos that coalesce around the notion of “We’re all prompts.”

While the intention may be to explore the concept of prompts in a metaphorical sense, many viewers, including myself, have found the delivery to be somewhat lacking. These videos often reiterate the same point without adding substantial depth or insight. The phrase “the prompt theory is that we are all prompts” has become a recurring mantra, yet it overlooks a fundamental aspect of prompts themselves—they are designed to be inputs that inspire creativity or generate responses, not outputs in their own right.

It appears that some creators may not fully grasp this distinction, resulting in content that feels more like a regurgitation of ideas rather than a meaningful discussion. As creators and consumers of content, we crave substance over surface-level interpretations. This trend raises the question: should we rely on more thoughtful interpretations that genuinely delve into the concept of prompts rather than relying on generalized statements that seem to miss the mark?

As we navigate the wealth of content available online, it’s essential to engage critically with trends like these. While it’s commendable to explore new ideas, there’s a fine line between innovation and redundancy. What are your thoughts on the “We’re all prompts” trend? Do you find the narrative appealing, or does it leave you wanting more?
