Today I learned that Lego with bright colors can be used by AI to motion track animation for CGI.
Alas, not real time. I didn't go swoosh and the ship go swoosh. Those 4 seconds took over a half hour to render on my 6 year old graphics card... 😅
As I've been saying, if your perception of AI is just about arguing over pixels and not about using AI as a natural language interface with computers, you're missing the forest for the trees.
(Yes I made spaceship sounds while filming that clip)
