If all we were seeing is the prompt used to generate the video, then there wouldn't be a problem. Human-written fiction is generally valuable.
Instead we're getting single sentences masquerading as "a picture worth a 1000 words", or worse with video. Only 1% of that is actually the valuable part (the prompt), the rest is filler words and hallucinated slop.
A video or picture of reality is inherently more informative than any AI generation.

I have the exact same problem with AI-generated articles. They're nearly empty of any actual information, and it completely wastes your time to filter through it and find the actual point. Just like the backstory that gets put before every online food recipe; it's useless fluff.
