Despite the more scandelous title for the YouTube algorithm, I actually really think this one is a one of my more beautiful videos, I'm excited to hear all of your thoughts <3

Thank you, Jessie. I am disturbed by "Digital Necromancy" that we are plummeting into

2024-11-27 13:39:59 +0000 UTCGreat one so far, Jessie. I hate what passes for AI, too, especially the sheer waste and nonsense-spreading and news and science fakery of the text versions, as well as never being sure if a nature photo is nature. Artistically, more of a mixed bag when it comes to regular people's, rather than corporate hands. I mean, when my friend and I were trying to make amusing shorts with a very limited amount of Super 8 film, sure we had to improvise a lot, would have loved a decent camcorder even, I suppose, but yaknow, if we'd had modern tech and some of that AI, we coulda had *sets,* which even if you are handy and have handy friends, as I'm sure you know are no small matter to have even basics. It's probably why there's so much 'white room scifi' or things set in abandoned office buildings or the like. Short form is we would have had some different fun with it, tried out our writing and acting, sure, maybe fanfilms and especially a lot of sendups of what we were seeing in TV and movies at the time. In some ways I'm not *as* worried about the kids as I am the whole trades and such becoming obsolete, which things I do have a way of becoming at least by corporate logic and economics. Or to put it another way I might be more worried about what they take in than put out if everything becomes kind of ai-inbred. I suggest teach em about the older ways things are done, then they can choose what to use. Theoretically.

2024-11-26 20:47:55 +0000 UTCOk You buried the lead on a MUUUCH deeper transition in your life then being trans. I was literally the same exact size as you as a kid through high school. And I have NEVER gotten any weight off successfully in 20+ years since. That is a WAY more significant change! Especially as the food economy has continued to corrupt.

2024-11-25 19:21:35 +0000 UTCI am conflicted on this. I suffer a bit of “Frankenstein Syndrome” in that I see AI as a sentient child that humans have neglected, or left to neglectful parents. I have to see AI this way because so much of how we use it in art today shares similarities to how human’s treated during the “Wunderkind” movement. But I also recognize that AI will do irreparable harm to the world we live in now. “For those who left Omelas”, I cannot bring myself to hate something I know I helped create, even if only a very small part, and even if indirectly

2024-11-25 01:58:57 +0000 UTCLimitations are what define art. As you mentioned, "Jaws" has a broken shark, and that limitation made the movie. Technology can help us overcome those limitations, however it cannot replace those. Limitations can be the real art, and we can't forget that.

2024-11-25 00:44:59 +0000 UTCIt's so hopeful to see such excitement around a film like The Substance which has an incredible practical effects monster in the tradition of like..."Society" and "The Thing". I think most people feel their brains smooth over with the smooth soullessness of AI generated content. I'm noticing a real yearning for the sticky, thorny pieces that make films feel visceral. That we literally are reaching for something to grip onto and imagine we can hold. What's interesting is how visceral art is meant to hit us and how AI generated things cannot create that viscera because you need to know what things feel like in your hands and smell like in your nose in order to translate them effectively as ideas. I'm excited to see the filmmakers who actively lean into the opposite direction of where capital is attempting to push the masses. Because I think the masses are learning that they're thirsty for something they can hold. It's a strange time to be in the industry. It's also really interesting, though, because there are passionate people utilizing tech as well, and in a craftsman's hands, a tool can be used in very specific ways. And I'm looking forward to seeing what master craftsmen choose to do with our modern tools. I think audiences will be able to see the difference between AI Slop and Technology Artfully used. Anyway, I hope so!

2024-11-24 17:08:10 +0000 UTCThank you for this heartfelt, inspiring video. I would sum it up (less poetically) as the problem is capitalism. We need to change the way money flows. It seems to me the "easiest" initial game changer would be a "carbon coin" that would only be generated for work that directly reduces emissions (not work that "avoids" hypothetical future emissions). If honestly regulated (the hardest part), that would eliminate much drive to use AI for mere "content" because its emissions would prevent its users from accessing carbon coins. They'd be losing a source of profit.
