A 10-minute AI short film titled "Kill All Idiots" submitted to the CapCut AI Festival reached 300,000 views in a single day. Creator @ID10T42 took the project from the first idea to the final cut using Seedance 2.5 in CapCut Video Studio.

Commenters highlighted that while AI generated the visuals, the real driving force behind the film's success is its compelling story and well-executed narrative. This demonstrates that strong screenwriting and directorial vision remain the critical bottlenecks in modern AI video workflows.
