On average, obviously. Any given day ranges from zero, to a couple hundred for especially interesting days. Also a huge blip when the kids were young. Runs of "zero" days end up being dark ages in long term memory. Sure, went to work, ate, slept etc. but nothing interesting. That's where the "at least one interesting picture for Mom" thing provided a baseline.
You know, I would also love to see 60fps, but let's wait till the premiere, and then - just show me the list of games with that level of details and rich world running 60fps on machines like xbox or ps5.
For Syndicate I tried Satellite Reign - it was ~10 years ago, and despite great graphics back then, I was disappointed by the fact you couldn't even drive cars (where it was a possibility in 1993!); bummer!
So if anyone knows a better title - I'd likely give it a try!
Wait, but you compare the cost of animated show or a movie which is in its final, acceptable quality!
The cost of that $15 per 30sec is NOT FINAL - you'll pretty much end up deciding you want another take - either due to some inconsistencies, non-physical movements, or anything else, which screams "that's fake".
So the cost is most probably much higher; how much higher? We don't really know, as there are virtually no acceptable shows created by that tool yet (until there is something I don't know about).

Thats true for grok and other models. You need to generate endlessly and cut endlessly and stitch them up together.
but for seedance you pretty much get stellar output which is extremely consistent in a single shot. Like there is a very good chance you will like what you see.
If you want something vague and generic and don't particularly care about the details, then maybe you can get want you want on the first try, but you'll likely just get what everyone would call "slop".
If you have something very specific in mind, then expect to spend several dozen generations before you get what you want, or something close to it, and then you may still have to spend more time making final adjustments manually in an image editor.
...and this is just for one image. I have not tried AI video production yet but I imagine it would involve considerably more effort.
$15/30s is $1800/hr, so assuming 1/10 generations are good, that's $18000/hr for final content. A few orders of magnitude below professional movies for sure, but still not trivial.
I'm (again) shocked that so poor article on UBI triggers any serious discussion: I mean, where's a math behind it? For US alone 1400usd for each adult and 500usd for kid would generate...4,95 trillion fucking dollars annually!
Won't any BUI proponent explain simply HOW (realistically) can it happen?
