Upmaster in the tide of stopping in bilibili： We are trying not to be eliminated by AI
Cover journalist Zhang Zheng
Recently, bilibili UP launched a hot search. Regarding the reasons for stopping the shift, some UP owners said that the platform revenue was reduced and it was difficult to balance the income and expenditure; Some UP owners said that the current use of AI has hit the original video production.
Will AI affect or even attack original video production? On April 2,Wang Ao, the founder of bilibili UP and the founder of "Scientific Voice" with 200,000 fans, said in an interview with a cover journalist."Our team is working hard to learn to produce content with AI and not to be eliminated by AI."

Many processes of content creation are being reshaped by AI.
"Unless you are going to be a company with the same marketing number and do it by the mode of video factory, the video may be AI dubbing, AI writing or even AI editing, and the whole video production will take almost 10 minutes." An UP owner said.
"Many workflows of our team are being reshaped by AI." Wang Wei told reporters that as a creator of popular science content, Wang Wei’s team needs to be exposed to foreign language publications frequently, and translation is essential, but these can be done with AI. "Caiyun Xiaoye +ChatGPT can already solve almost all translation needs."
Then there is manuscript proofreading. "Almost two months ago, we started to proofread manuscripts with AI. At present, we will use two different AI proofreading websites, namely’ Wenbang’ and’ Dragon Fruit’, to run the website once each, with double insurance. " One person completes the traditional three-examination and three-school, that is, the work quality of six people.
Then there is AI speech synthesis. "This application is quite mature now, and there are many products on the market."

Junior and intermediate writers lose value.
"AI will make all junior and intermediate writers lose value, which is almost an irreversible trend. As for how many more years a writer-level writer like me can live, it’s hard to say, maybe two or three more years. " This is Wang Wei’s view. "
"GPT4 can help us write all kinds of documents."
Xin Bi should open a new world of creation for Wang Ao. Artificial intelligence generated a professional script for popular science programs for him.

AI grabs video colorist’s job
"Professional colorists generally use a software called Da Vinci to post-color the video, which is very time-consuming and laborious. Need a shot, a shot slowly. The documentary "Exploring the Cambrian" we filmed spent more than 20,000 yuan on special color matching. "
After decades of experience accumulation and summary, traditional colorists have formed a lot of practical skills. AI color matching seems to be a transition from the film age to the digital age, and the rules of the game for developing photos have been completely changed. "Now, AI has begun to compete for the job of colorist. A professional color matching website we are using now is called fylm.ai "

Once Pandora’s box is opened, it can’t be closed again
"We can only pretend that AI is not doing as well as us and working for work, otherwise life is meaningless."
For AI to enter the creative field, Wang Ao and his team’s response is: they are trying to learn to use AI to produce content, and don’t be eliminated by AI.
He said that it is necessary to delay the development of GTP-5. "It is of course necessary to stop and think about it now, let’s discuss it and seek the opinions of all scientists openly and transparently, but I still want to say that there is no way to stop this thing. Once Pandora’s box is opened, it can’t be closed again."
Compared with human scientists, AI is a black box, and we can’t understand the principle in the black box, or the principle in the black box is a form that only AI can understand.
