Hi Emily! You did a fantastic job here. My main takeaway from your video is that there are consequences to AI that many people ignore. You set this up well, first with the slightly creepy music, then with the images of environmental destruction. This led me to believe that you were trying to show the environmental cost of AI that is often overlooked. I liked how you repeated some of the same environmental images. This really hammered in the potential destruction. I also loved when you put the words on the screen the emphasize those “lyrics.” I think some of the later cuts could have been a little more on beat, but that is something I struggled with a lot as well.
Hi Emily,
I really enjoyed your video on the Age of AI! The theme was clear, and the visuals complemented the narration effectively. From your video, my key takeaways are that AI is rapidly developing, shown through the progression of technology from past to present. I also appreciated your thoughtful question about whether AI can truly solve the environmental issues humanity has created. I especially liked how this message was subtle — rather than stating it directly, you used images of human mistakes to convey it. Additionally, the pacing of the edits matched the beats of the music, which kept the flow engaging. Your idea evolved well from AI’s development to questioning its real impact. Great work overall!
Wow, Emily! This was great! Your video flowed extremely well, and I was engaged during the duration of your video. I loved how the text played into the emphasis of the message and also how you reused images to show emphasis on the importance of the overall message. I thought the videos and pictures that you selected were very valuable and I felt the guilt that I have from contributing to climate change. Great work!
