ngl, first 3 months were rough. i was posting maybe one or two reels a week and watching them flatline. each one took me hours. writing, recording, editing, captions. kept thinking the next one would finally hit.

It didn't.

Around week 12 i actually looked back at everything and the pattern was painfully obvious. the ones that did okay? not the ones I poured hours into.they were the ones where i just shipped something and moved on.

So i flipped it. stopped obsessing over perfect edits. started treating each post like a test batch instead of a final exam. goal became can i get a rough idea out today rather than next week.

Thats when i started looking at ai shorts generator workflows because i needed something that could keep up with the volume.

also realized I was jumping between like four or five tools for scripts, visuals, voiceover, editing and the switching cost alone was killing me. moved to framia cause i could just describe what i wanted and let the agent handle generation and iteration in one place instead of exporting and importing across apps all day. the output isn't perfect. but im posting 4-5x more often now and two of those actually picked up real traction this week.

Still reminding myself everyday this is a marathon. more posts = more swings at the bat.perfection gives you one shot every two weeks.

Demis Hassabis spent 30 years building toward AGI.

Last week he decided running the company doing it was no longer the best use of his time.

Let that land. This isn't a burnt-out exec taking a sabbatical. This is the person who built AlphaFold, who cracked protein folding after 50 years of failure, who has more credibility on AGI timelines than almost anyone alive. And he looked at where things are heading and decided: the CEO chair is the wrong seat for what's coming next.

He's not stepping back. He's repositioning. His new focus is building the infrastructure for superintelligent systems to do actual lab work. Not managing the company that builds AI. Preparing for what the AI does once it's smarter than the people managing it.

He expects AGI by 2030. Give or take a year.

He expects half a dozen to a dozen more AlphaFold-level breakthroughs in medicine over the next two decades. Not incremental drug approvals. Not better diagnostics. AlphaFold-level. Each one rewriting a field.

He expects all diseases to be cured within 20 years.

"I wouldn't say I'm certain, but I'm very confident."

That's not hype. Hassabis doesn't do hype. That's a man who has been right about hard things before, saying out loud that he sees the finish line.

Here's what makes this different from every other AGI prediction you've scrolled past. Hassabis didn't tweet it. He didn't say it on a podcast to sell something. He quit one of the most powerful seats in AI to go act on it. Revealed preferences beat stated ones every time. When someone with his track record reorganizes their entire life around a belief, that's a different category of signal than a prediction.

The uncomfortable part is what it implies for everything built around the current timeline. Cancer research funding cycles. Drug approval infrastructure. The entire 15-year pipeline from molecule to market. All of it designed for a world where breakthroughs take decades and cost billions. If Hassabis is even half right, that world has maybe one pipeline cycle left before the economics stop making sense.

And if he's wrong, the most credible person in AI just resigned from DeepMind based on a prediction that won't survive the decade.

Either way, this is not a normal resignation.

Been editing video for like 8 years. when AI tools started showing up I was legit scared. Thought that was it for me.
Tried a few. They were mostly trash tbh. Just weird uncanny valley stuff. then someone showed me this thing called Framia. You just describe your project,product, audience, vibe, length and it spits out a script, storyboard, visuals, voiceover, and music. Like a full rough cut in 30 minutes.
And I gotta say... it's not great. The pacing is weird. Music choices are questionable. Some shots look off.
But here's the thing,that rough cut used to take me like 4-5 hours just to get started. Now I only spend those hours on the actual editing. The rhythm. The emotional beats. The tiny details that make something good actually great.
AI does the boring part. I do the fun part. honestly my job got more interesting, not less.

New AI tool dropped yesterday. Looks promising. Should i switch? What about last week's? Still good?

I spend more time on reddit comparing tools than actually making stuff. Like image tool, video tool or music tool. Each has 5 alternatives and each has 10 youtube deep dives. By the time i pick one, my creative energy is gone.

I just want to make a video. Why do i need to be a tool expert first?

I switched to framia a while back. Tbh not because it's the best just because I don't have to choose anymore. One tool. One work flow. It has all the gen stuff in one canvas. Done!

Perfect? Nope lol. But at least i'm making things again instead of just reading about tools.

Anyone else stuck in analysis paralysis?

gonna be honest,I refused to use AI for creative work. Just felt like cheating. Like it was coming for my job.

Then a client project came in with a crazy tight deadline. Two weeks of work, five days to deliver. I was desperate.

So I caved and tried Framia. Went in expecting to hate it.Turns out, it handled all the boring stuff ,rough script, storyboard, basic visuals,and I focused on the actual creative decisions. Tone, pacing, brand voice. All me.

Finished in half the time and so happy the client loved it.

Ya actually AI didn't replace me. Just made me faster. Kinda wish I'd tried it sooner tbh. anyone else go through this “AI denial” phase?

I know absolutely nothing about video editing. like, I opened Premiere Pro once, stared at the timeline for 20 minutes, closed it, and never looked back.capCut is about my speed and even that takes me forever.

I needed a quick ad for a side project I'm launching next week,nothing fancy, just a 30-second explainer for social media. a friend who knows I'm really hopeless with video told me to try Framia because apparently all you do is “just type”. I was like, yeah right, nothing is that easy.

typed in a rough description of my product and the vibe I wanted. It spat out a full storyboard, script, voiceover, music, and the actual video clips all in one go. I honestly didn't believe it at first.

The first output was... Ya usable, but far from perfect. the voiceover sounded like a robot from 2010 and the pacing was all over the place – too fast in some parts, dragging in others. I tweaked the prompt a few times, changed the voice style, shortened the script, and after maybe 4 or 5 iterations, I got something actually decent.

for someone with zero editing skills, this thing is actually a lifesaver. It turned what would have been a multi-day nightmare into an afternoon project. Anyway don't expect magic,you still have to guide it, refine it, and accept that it's not going to be Hollywood-grade. If you're willing to iterate and babysit a bit, it's amazing. If you want one-click perfection right out of the box, you'll probably be disappointed.

I'm still not sure I'd use it for serious client work without heavy manual polish, but for social ads and quick turnarounds? Honestly, it got the job done. So happy to share the final video if anyone's curious.
