Have you ever worried that robots may be able to edit video one day?  Are you excited about the possibility of a computer being able to edit video?  Either way, that day has come.

A new app called Shred Video is just that.  Using an AI computer algorithm, Shred Video edits together action video for you with just the input of some clips and a music track. 

Available for Apple products, Shred Video takes you from raw material to finished product in 4 simple steps.  Just import your video and music you want to use, choose your highlights from the video and let Shred do the rest.

Shred is angled towards action footage -- like the stuff you would see in a GoPro ad, but it is not difficult to think this technology can someday soon take on much more challenging and nuanced tasks.  While many editors may not see this as a good thing, it is yet another example of how technology is distrupting the video industry and creating new ways for you to make professional quality product without having to spend a lot of money. 

Good or bad, you be the judge, but the AI is here, and it's only the beginning.

Check out Shred Video.
