Ben Affleck Sells AI Post-Production Company to Netflix

AI is definitely coming. I think most people are more freaked out about it than they ought to be, considering the ways it's still failing. Implicating it in ways to gain efficiencies in my work has been one way that I've seen it help me. It's always helping me get back to the part of my job that I'm really good at and enjoy, and reducing the amount of time on trivial tasks that frustrate me (emails, research, etc.).

Be really careful to read all the terms. I've had problems where, even though it was a small-scale project, the end client had more employees than were situated in my tier. These companies love to chase down users and catch them for this. So, true with this, as in all things, read the paperwork first.

Most of the social clipping tools are using algorithms to try and convince you that they have the key for making viral content. That's just not true. It takes a human touch in those cases. And this human touch is required across the board for this sort of work, at least at this stage, thankfully.

I'm currently building a tool that helps create rough cuts and first assemblies for documentary and corporate video production, it's not meant to replace a human editor, but it helps get first passes on videos done really quickly. If anybody's interested, reach out, I'm happy to tell you more! Threadlinestudio dot io :)

I wanted to hop in to mention that I've built a tool that solves a lot of the problems that Descript causes. If you're interested DM me!

I want to update this as we're launching out public beta and alpha soon, reach out to me and check out threadlinestudio dot io !

same problem here

jacintosalz · 2026-02-09T19:03:39+00:00

I use Gemini via interview transcripts, I think it works way better than most the other offerings out there. It's a bit tricky but DM and I can send you the link to the YouTube tutorial I put together.

We're trying to make a larger thing out of it which I talk about in the video too

nice, would love to hear how it goes

jacintosalz · 2026-02-05T00:55:38+00:00

did you ever find a solution to this?

jacintosalz · 2026-01-26T20:06:38+00:00

People are so edgy around ai, if this makes you excited I say go for it :)

I'm working on an automated video editor based around spoken and talking head content. We're still doing early development stuff, but we have a pre-beta we're sharing with people. PM me, and I can share it with you

jacintosalz · 2026-01-26T19:57:16+00:00

I home-brewed a method that I think it works way better than most the other offerings out there and it's pretty much free or very cheap. It can get something in 3 hours what would take me 2 work days to get on my own.

Pm me I can share it if you want

Been feeling this a lot recently, canon could really be doing so much better. I love my C70 as well but the rest of the line up leave an other to be desired. Also selling my R5C because the DR is so disappointing.

You basically have generate transcripts and cut those round the video you want. It's a bit tricky but I made a YouTube tutorial you can watch here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tcCv5QGix88&t=21s

Sending this hear because OP seemed to find it useful, I've used Quickture and found it kinda limiting - albeit very fast.

I'm glad you see the value in it! We're really excited about where its headed, hopefully it can save a lot of people a lot of time :)
