  The AI is hilariously funny.  Indeed, I wonder if it is intentionally comedic.

  This AI gets loads wrong, BUT omg so much of the visual texturing LOOKS so good, remarkable achievement.

  Surprised that at no time in the video the true definition of a cutter was mentioned.

  Aparently ai. Can&apos;t get a hammer hitting ANY object right. There are a dozen or more instances here of a man banging mid-air or hitting things sideways!<br>Most stuff is quite impressive, but you can not have a hull planked halfway along as a carvel build and then change to clinker near the bow. Also, apears ai Can&apos;t distinguish between bow as in hair bow and bow as in bow wow or woof. G&apos;day from Tasmania

  Nice story. The a.i. generated &apos;craftmanship&apos; however is more than ridiculous! 😮

  Bloody robot voice; constantly getting it wrong, by putting the stress in the wrong place or mispronouncing words. AI slop basically.

  Every shot is comical, but in my top list : <br>- <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e6VJFQtlMIA&amp;t=51">0:51</a> A surreal chase, in which the chased boat seems to be going backwards chasing the chaser — if I&apos;m making myself clear<br>- <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e6VJFQtlMIA&amp;t=383">6:23</a> Lovely mainsail

  Fascinating. Must&apos;ve been great fun for the smugglers. Same as today, only the technology has changed.

  since this video focuses strictly on maritime engineering, it can be excused that no mention was made of the reasons why all that smuggling was going on.<br>Since the Seven Years War, GB was in dire need of revenue. So the Crown raised taxes on everything it could think of, especially valuable trade goods like spirits, tobacco, tea, but also following Waterloo on clay bricks, leading to the substitute use of house building materials.&apos;<br><br>By so doing, the Crown created a market that certain people profitably supplied. It created a subculture that found its poetic expression in Rudyard Kipling&apos;s poem &apos;A Smugglers&apos; Song&apos;.<br>Using this search term, you can find it being recited here on Ytube.

  The smuggling cutter was so quickly overtaken because it was heavily laden with cargo and sluggish as a result. BTW, this is really the best AI generated video I&apos;ve seen yet on youTube. Good work.
