Washed Out - The Hardest Part (Official Video)

Gracias señor por haber echo que descubriese a este grupo de música..

Music sounds like it was AI generated too, yikes

Why don't you use Suno to make your music...Like I don't get it when musicians go for ai bro ai is coming for your job too 😂

Awesome song. Awesome video. Nice work you hypercomputers.

It feels like the start of Digital Video cut in rhe early 90s

Amazing

Which A.I program was used to for this?

video looks like shit

What in the fever dream is this? Who green lit this?😭

This sucks.

I honestly feel like this is what dreams would look like if filmed.

the visual content is interesting but the pace of the visuals is way to fast, makes me dizzy and nauseous, and it doesn't fit the pace of the song.. how could they not see this before release ?

Nice sound good vibes congrats 😊

The music is pretty good, but the video is utterly worthless

Amazing 👏 🤩 🙀

Is the music also ai, i cant hear thue words, tone correction or huh ?????

Hearing this song live was life changing. God bless Ernest Green ✌️

Incredible track !!!!

To hell with the haters this is in incredible track I can’t stop listening to it

It's the best music

Porno

I think your video is great. Great use of the tools.

This looked like something made from the 80’s. I like it.

Love it. The second time I watched it I feel weird about it.

Shame about that head on car crash after the wedding

The baby died at 1 years old

i hate this, ai is awful for art

love it. The more I watched it thought the less I liked it.

hire people for music videos and stop consuming crap

they used that weird generative video AI for this.

Also, reading the lyrics it looks like a break up song, which is probably what it is but . . . I cant help but feel that Ernest is singing of someone who passed away whether in life or a fictional story he invented. His words evoke the feeling of needing someones presence after they have left this earth for good. Ever since I thought of the song this way, I can't hear any otherway. Thus, the last set of lyrics always get me like a punch in the gut.

Is anyone else hearing it this way?

I want to see this replicated in real life.

horrible song and quite literally an abomination.

❤

Wtf did you use? I want it

I'm confused...are you guys complaining??

He doesn't want me anymore

Yup. The internet is officially cooked.

this album is in line with the last one from 2020. i'm digging this more mature sound! nothing like driving down sunset blvd with the windows down and a washed out song blasting. its just a good feeling. ernest you always help folks produce good feelings and good vibes. i've loved your music for over a decade. peace and love

Complements to the creative designer/director. Visually inspiring for me.

Watch a bunch of nature videos then watch this. Real is imperfection; how do you program that in its randomness? This is an amazing video and song

So, the AI-generated video isn't to try to fake you to think this is real but to talk about the authenticity of AI-generated videos and ownership, right?

Exactly like my dreams😢

A.I made, garbage stuff.

i cannot stop watching it

I think this might have the saddest beat I've ever heard. I'm speechless.

This AI generation content is great for stoners and arthouse filmmakers. This is honestly super niche for entertainment. One minute in and I got bored of it already. Four minutes is too long. I would never be able to sit through a feature film presentation. It's wild to see some indie filmmakers out there talk like this is the future of Hollywood.

I want to make note of the intense debate going on here in the comments. It’s clear that the video has served as a jumping off point to discuss a range of topics as far-reaching as aesthetics, authenticity, ownership, and many fears about how AI will effect our lives.

My new album isn’t an AI-album and there aren’t any AI-focused themes, but as a big fan of science and technology, I’m very excited about the creative potential of these new tools. As I’ve said before, it feels like a natural extension of of some of the other experimental music videos I’ve done in the past.

I also want to acknowledge the serious concerns that people have shared with me through comments and DM’s - I feel more educated about both sides of the debate after reading them, and I realize there is an important distinction that needs to be made between responsible and irresponsible use of the tools. It’s clear that we are in the earliest stages of figuring that distinction out, and if anything, I hope that the video can play a role in amplifying that discussion.

Whether you’re scared, excited, or undecided about these new tools, they are here to stay. We just need to collectively figure out the most responsible ways to harness them.
