## Transcript

Opus Clip is doing something absolutely insane. They're pitting pro video editors against AI, and you'll watch live, unfiltered, and both teams will have just 60 minutes on the clock. There will be no safety net, no second takes,
and you could win $5,000 just by picking a side and participating. Watch until the end of this video to find out how. The lineup is stacked. Team Human is Daniel and Sebastian, both pro editors with serious experience, where Team AI
is Reuben and Dan betting on Agent Opus to keep up. If you don't know what Agent Opus is, it gives you full creative control. You can write the script down to the exact words, guide the timing of scenes, and pull in relevant footage
from across the internet. It blends AI generated content with real world content, and create videos that actually feel human. Team humans will use their knowhow and team AI is armed with Agent Opus and will get the same brief and
deadline. They'll have completely different approaches. Everything happens live and they're also testing Agent Opus against Heyen Invido and Captions AI with the exact same prompt. The judges are John, Hayden Hiller Smith, and
Premier Gal Kelsey. Plus, Andrea Botees is joining as a special guest. This future of content creation playing out live. When people talk about AI video tools, they usually argue about whether these tools replace creators or actually
help them work faster. This event finally puts that question to the test. Opus Clip is running the first real live head-to-head challenge with real creators, real stakes, and no polished marketing demos. No cherrypicked
results, just the truth. You'll get to see if AI video agents are all hype or actually useful. And you'll learn live from top creators and editors how they make viral content. Plus, OpusClip is giving away two months of watermark free
Agent Opus, so you could try the tool that Team AI is actually using. Here's description takes you to the website. That's where everything is happening. First, pick your side. Who do you think will win? Team Human or team AI? I'm
