Amazon’s plan to supply AI-generated recaps of Prime Video reveals is not off to a terrific begin. The corporate’s recap of the primary season of Fallout options a number of errors, GamesRadar+ writes, together with primary info in regards to the plot of the present.

You possibly can watch the recap your self within the “Extras” part of Amazon’s Fallout season two itemizing in Prime Video. Moreover being considerably dry, the AI-generated recap incorrectly identifies the time interval of the present’s Los Angeles-set flashbacks as being the Nineteen Fifties, after they’re really 2077 (the Fallout franchise is about in an alternate historical past that diverged from our actual one after 1945). As Gizmodo notes, the recap additionally appears to misconceive the ending of the primary season, which units up season two’s partnership between vault dweller Lucy and The Ghoul, an irradiated wastelander with a private connection to the thriller on the coronary heart of the primary season.

Whereas the recap suggests Amazon’s AI system can efficiently mix clips, music and dialogue right into a coherent video, it apparently lacks an understanding of the main points. The inaccuracies on this recap will not stop anybody from having fun with the second season of the present, however they do not precisely encourage confidence in Amazon’s device both. It additionally looks like an issue that would have been simply solved by having a human worker who’s watched the present evaluation the video earlier than it was uploaded.

Sadly, Amazon’s lack of AI high quality management extends past recaps of its reveals and into the dubs for the reveals themselves. The corporate pulled AI-generated voiceover tracks for Banana Fish and different anime due to how unhealthy they sounded earlier this week. It would not be shocking if this recap will get pulled, corrected and re-uploaded, too. As Amazon provides extra AI-generated content material to its platform, customers are sure to find extra methods it comes up quick. The corporate’s viewers is simply too massive, and AI is outwardly nonetheless too unreliable for it to be prevented.
