upscaling is the new auto tune (surface blur and ai can do horrible things to you, especially faces, lips) sometimes it works pretty great though. |

that, loool, feeling better about this AI wave now, because... AI is trained on web data, and images from the web of faces contain lots of selfies. so not only does it wind up turning peoples' faces into selfies, but you'll see it rather disconcertingly "pop in" as someone gets close enough to the camera to have a discernible face. i was arguing with myself earlier: "can this shit really make up anything proper new? ...given that it's made up of things we've already created? then, oh, i guess we get some decent new with the image generators, but..." yeah. these people thinking AI is going to do things like book them hotel tickets are in for a rude awakening when they find their new virtual assistant is a cross between a 14yo male troll and a 14yo female selfie narcissist |

elon musk all: "oh, they're going too fast" ...and, if we're lucky, he's right, but for the wrong reasons -- it's due to embarrass itself repeatedly as microsoft is on a coke binge shoving ChatJeep't into every little thing. it's utterly predictable; but they cannot be stopped. because it hasn't blown up yet, right? but then, AI will respond to someone's cousin with a sexual proposition. then AI will make some bad stock trades. then someone will throw themselves off a bridge because they've decided to try using it to replace therapists. and they'll already have been fending off lawsuits, saying "we'll fix it, we'll fix it" but it'll take something like that last part to finally kill it so, don't worry: microsoft's on it. they'll kill this AI stuff right good |

in the 1950s a bunch of MIT professors, including Marvin Minsky, got up in front of the press and the world and announced they'd have this AI thing cracked in ten years. they got quite a bit of egg over that one. like, oh. shit. this is a lot harder than we thought the gist of it is that they made some rapid progress in multiple areas for a while, and simply assumed it'd keep going that way. then they hit a wall. and another wall. by the 80s AI was just a sci-fi trope ...and i wonder if they're about to do it again. ChatGPT is just a giant autocomplete that takes countless $bil to build/run. it cannot learn on the fly. that, effectively, it is incapable of remembering. to do this, it'd have to update this giant model every "turn" and fjording that river... my hunch is -- good luck buddy |

(don't think too hard about it) |

watch just after amsterdam, and... woman red hat, dead center of the image, watch as she turns away, then back. away, then back. no one takes selfies of the back left of their head, so there's some oddity |

lol it looks like using the same kinds of tools except whoever made it thinks it's normal and cool and not creepy |

personally i think the sound is the most offensive part |
||||||||
|

yeah the guy made it manually with stock sound FX. it's crap, i agree. but i didn't really... focus on it enough for it to bother me. i was too busy judging the AI stuff, which was the ostensible point. so if it makes any sense, i vote the sound is irrelevant because this is an AI demo and the sound AIn't (...has anyone thought of that one, yet? AIn't?) |

my dad was actually tasked with trying to auto-colorize film back in the 70s or 80s and told them it couldn't be done. it makes me kind of sad he's not around to see all this he was telling me this in the 90s. then i asked him, "so how do they colorize films, then?" "oh, it's a bunch of hippies in a room" |

it's funny you mention mushrooms (nice) cause I was watching another one of these and was getting heavy mushroom vibes. just slightly off, slightly alien. a feeling I've been to these places b4 (I havent). |
