Version 186: Does Anyone Else Find the Veo3 “We’re All Prompts” Slop Videos Annoying?

The Misunderstanding of Prompts in Visual Content: A Critical Look at VEO3’s Approach

In recent times, a particular style of video content has emerged, characterized by the assertion that “we’re all prompts.” These VEO3 videos seem to proliferate across social media platforms, yet many viewers, myself included, find them less than appealing.

The core message of these videos attempts to bridge the concepts of prompts and human interaction. For instance, narration might state, “the prompt theory is that we are all prompts,” suggesting that we serve as inputs in a larger narrative. However, this interpretation overlooks a fundamental aspect: prompts are indeed inputs, whereas the outputs—the content we create and share—are fundamentally different.

What’s concerning is that this distinction seems to be lost on the creators behind these videos. Their approach not only muddles the meaning of what a prompt truly is but also risks diminishing the complexity and richness of human expression.

As someone who appreciates thoughtful engagement and nuanced discussions, I find myself craving video content that reflects a deeper understanding of these concepts. It raises the question: How can content creators elevate their narratives to foster a more informed and engaging conversation about the relationship between prompts and human expression?

Let’s hope that moving forward, we can see more insightful interpretations that resonate with audiences and do justice to these intriguing concepts.
