Gregory's ServerZillions spent on generative AI development and not a single thing produced that's anywhere near as novel as this https://www.boze-style.com

   @jonikorpi @TheAngelsCove :cat_wow: this is the pinnacle of art, towards which we artists will all strive for eternity in our futule attempt to match its magnificence :shiba_love:  Since AI is actually do ing a lot of cool stuff in the real world, one has to ask, why are 99% of toots about AI snarky putdowns ? @failedLyndonLaRouchite the good thing is that in 10 years or so, one of us will be right the bad thing is that in 10 years, given the ephemeral nature of social media, this exchange will be lost to time given the mind bending progress in computers over the last 50 years, I would have thought people would be reluctant to predict the next 10 or 20 years, but here we are @failedLyndonLaRouchite In 50 years my children may well be stabbing you with a stick to fertilize our crops. at work, chit chat before meeting starts now I realize "AI"covers a lot of ground but here on tusker 99.99% is negative snark and that is just bullshit, sorry @failedLyndonLaRouchite  @dnavinci @failedLyndonLaRouchite @jonikorpi but people want their communications to follow special unwritten rules. If I write β20 wordsβ I get nowhere, no one understands me. If I let a llm translate my language neurotypical minds suddenly understand. Yes the information value is the same, but unfortunately this is not how the world outside works. In this case llms are a big help for me @B3r6ur @dnavinci @failedLyndonLaRouchite @jonikorpi not related to work, actually Im not allowed to use llms at work. But I live in a society of assholes, true. I regularly need to send letters to government offices and so. I also dont want to get called. Sure its all bullshit communication and I still have and want people I can rely on take this communication overhead from me, but until this gets paid I can either spend days in writing or just use llms      @jonikorpi i cannot remember the band but yes, one member is Susumu Hirasawa who made soundtracks of every Satoshi Kon movie and show as far as i know π I think they made similar videos than the one you shared, so i couldn't resist to add this π  @tonicfunk @Variaxocellus @jonikorpi I love electronico fantasticos! Do you also like Open Reel Orchestra?  @Bit_form @Variaxocellus @jonikorpi i don't know them! i'll look them up! any recommendations on where to start? @tonicfunk @Variaxocellus @jonikorpi Ei Wada, the main guy in the mask is also a founding member of Open Reel Ensemble** They have a doc about them on YouTube. https://www.theverge.com/2017/6/18/15816880/ei-wada-musician-documentary-open-tape-reels @Bit_form @Variaxocellus @jonikorpi WHOAAA omg this is so awesome!!!! thanks for passing it along!!! @tonicfunk @Variaxocellus @jonikorpi I was certain my first post would be about game dev, but this was too awesome to pass by! @tonicfunk @Variaxocellus @jonikorpi THIS THREAD JUST KEEPS GOING MORE AMAZING, and I started at the third reply deep!!! π€©π€©  @StarkRG @tonicfunk @Variaxocellus @jonikorpi and LBT https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_Z1qroUWtPc, Jazzrausch Bigband https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yPOTrMS-TlM, VKKO https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lAp_fzhsL14, Spoink https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fkujDvA3ubA, and Komfortrauschen https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8FU9d_Bjxb8 @_sohalt @tonicfunk @Variaxocellus @jonikorpi Oh hell yeah. It's good to know EDM, techno, etc can survive the collapse of technological civilisation. We'll be able to play ourselves out. As someone with mild photosensitivity, though, I could do without the flashing lights. Haha, I especially love the small hammer on the trash can! Where do you get one of those foot actuated keyboards? I want one.  @0batty_bat0 @Variaxocellus @jonikorpi  @Variaxocellus @jonikorpi No cap, I'd actually like a full version of this as an audio track. I would absolutely put it into one of my standard coding mixes. @kagan @Variaxocellus @jonikorpi good news! It's called Feeling Pressure by Klangphonics and it's on Bandcamp and major streaming services. (They're very good.) @russss @Variaxocellus @jonikorpi Hey, they're on Tidal, too! (The service I have all my playlists in.) Thank you so much! Listening to it now. π @kagan @Variaxocellus @jonikorpi Thanks for sharing. These folks are amazing! They have a YouTube channel too https://www.youtube.com/@Klangphonics  @Variaxocellus @jonikorpi power washer probably has a MCU. Same with the mega phone... @jonikorpi @jonikorpi Fantastic. Of course AI development is not after novelty. The goal has been predictable, derivative mimicry. This is why weβll always need human artists to keep life interesting.     was ready for silly stuff, not expecting that punch-in-the-gut nostalgia of old games ~ very nice @jonikorpi I was wondering what Agent Smith, Agent Brown and Agent Jones have been up to, since finishing the Matrix movies ...  @jonikorpi Serious fun! Wildly creative. These gents have a YouTube channel devoted to turning their bald heads into musical instruments.   @jonikorpi |
@jonikorpi Where's that from again?
