As much as people (myself included) love to harp on AI-generated imagery and videos, I do have to appreciate the level of prompting and trial and error that goes into making something like this. It’s pretty cool to watch, even if it a lot of it doesn’t make much sense, like the engineer just placing the parts into the burner drill without screwing anything, and even if it has that classic AI video wonkiness that makes it feel like a fever dream. Other than that, it’s still pretty cool, and it’s interesting to visualize what Factorio would look like as a film.
On a similar note, definitely check out the FUE5 trailer if you haven’t – Factorio re-imagined in Unreal Engine 5 (as a concept).
