Real-time video is about to become the primary battleground for human-AI interaction. That's the take from Elon, who recently pointed out something most of us already feel but haven't quite articulated.

Sure, text packs more information per byte. It's efficient, dense, precise. But here's the thing—video has already won the attention war. People consume it, live in it, think through it. And now? AI is catching up to that reality.

The shift isn't just about understanding video anymore. It's about generating it, on the fly, in real time. Imagine AI that doesn't just respond with words but creates visual narratives as you speak. That's the direction we're heading.

This isn't some distant sci-fi scenario. The infrastructure is being built right now. Models are learning to parse motion, context, emotion—all at speeds that make text-based responses feel almost… antiquated.

When AI can see what you see and show you what it thinks, that changes everything.
