rileybrown had Claude on his home MacBook read the NeurIPS 2025 workshop paper "Unified Agentic Video Editing Across Levels of Complexity and Creativity" and apply its methods to cut a cinematic intro trailer for his podcast. Screenshots show the agent's task list: Gemini-based episode/scene/shot analysis, auditioning 84 candidate lines by ear, locking the narrative spine and focal boxes, generating scores and sound design, rendering 4K picture mixed to -14 LUFS, and running QC round 6 (dropping a mangled line and an AI-looking NSA image). After 90 minutes it was still working at 7/9 tasks.
