@lazerwalker it sounds like the fake speech sounds in older CRPG on the SNES. I kinda like it

@lazerwalker reminds me a bit of the hatsune miku guitar pedal that turns every note into a japanese phoneme.

@lazerwalker Time to record a spooky, windy place and see what comes out.

@lazerwalker That is creepy.

@lazerwalker aw it's happily singing away to itself!

@lazerwalker simultaneously creepy, amazing, fun, and annoying

@lazerwalker very cursed, thank you

@lazerwalker "seismic anomaly".

@lazerwalker

That is perfectly horrifying, and I love it.

@lazerwalker thanks, I hate it.

hey @electrickeet... :blobyeengrin:

@lazerwalker there are conspiracy folks frantically pointing at video compression artifacts "proving" world leaders are lizard people.

We already had panics about satanic messages hidden in recordings, if you play the record backwards, etc.

I'm expecting someone's to start over analyzing media made with this, and find "hidden messages" if they run it through the right filters.

@lazerwalker Second part DOES low-key slap tho.

@lazerwalker this computer thing has gone too far!

@lazerwalker
Incredible glitch. You just found a new VST

@lazerwalker

Is this going to give us a new moral panic like the Satanic backmasking on heavy metal albums?

It is time for it, I guess.

@lazerwalker in my days we used to play records at 45 rpm to get our demonic messages… younger generations don’t know how easy they have it

@lazerwalker "another visitor! stay a while. stay forever!"

@lazerwalker I hope someone uses this technology as the voices for characters in a videogame, because this sounds awesome.

@lazerwalker I don't know if I'm flattered or concerned that it sounds a lot like I do when I'm straightening up and forgot to turn on some music first.

I bet it even gets the same "bahma nama nama" phonemes that I use for the SMB underground theme.

Sheesh, this is pretty awkward for gamer-ish dads.

@lazerwalker My hearing works that way, I hear music and singing in white noise.

@lazerwalker That's amazing. Disturbing and amazing. Disturbzing.

@lazerwalker What is the original? Would like to compare.

@lazerwalker total #glitchart

@lazerwalker artificial pareidolia

@lazerwalker I knew what I was getting into when I clicked that link, but now I too am cursed to have heard that. 😆

@lazerwalker Oh NO

@lazerwalker that is _epic_. it's like leaks from dreamspace set to music i love it.

@lazerwalker bidi bidi bop yes yes 😂

@lazerwalker There's a horror movie plot in that.

@lazerwalker Welp, now I'm haunted.

@lazerwalker I think Jim O’Rourke was doing this or similar on his latest LP https://steamroom.bandcamp.com/album/steamroom-61

@lazerwalker I feel like you may have discovered a new art form here... or a way for ghost hunters to claim old games are somehow haunted by the souls of those who created them. Like most software.

@lazerwalker someone absolutely needs to make a spooky game where all the music is like this

@lazerwalker Thanks for the nightmares 😂​

@lazerwalker “AI” “Hallucinations”.
Don’t let the Ghost Hunters know …they will run wild with this one and replace all their Spirit Boxes

@lazerwalker this is great; also, I can’t remember if you’re already familiar with the work of Diana Deutsch, but, if not:

@lazerwalker This heralds the next generation of "playing the rock album LP backwards to hear satanic voices."

@lazerwalker I knew I would find a post to reply with this image.

@lazerwalker wow that is bizarre

@lazerwalker

A new genre is made.

Imaginary Glitchtunes

@lazerwalker
Psychics have known since the invention of radio that most static noise is actually ghosts screaming out, "please like and subscribe."

@lazerwalker A journalist @Ruhrnalist uses whisper to transcribe interview, but only the answer track. He complains from time to time that it invents questions between the answers….

@lazerwalker Ghost in the machine

@lazerwalker now we get to find out what the windshield wipers were actually saying…

@lazerwalker Very cool. Like AI beat-boxing.

@lazerwalker
It's oddly endearing.

@lazerwalker
That's actually kind of amazing. I'd love to hear what it'd do with some tracks from Big Giant Circles, but I don't want to give Adobe any of my money just now.

@lazerwalker these would be cool for an 8/16 bit game to use as voice sound effects, if the song could be removed somehow.

@lazerwalker this is great

wonder what would happen if you gave it the midi of a song with lyrics

@lazerwalker thats the exact sound i make to myself around the house when no one else is home

@lazerwalker wow lowkey brilliant tho. I really wanna hear it chopped up and sprinkled over like a deep minimal tech-house beat

@lazerwalker Seems like a great tool to come up with alien languages

@lazerwalker this seems consistent with my theory that at least some AI are being possessed by the Fae.

@lazerwalker That is terrifying! Was about to go to bed, lol

@lazerwalker @celesteh It’s an auto-scat!

@lazerwalker

this is my favorite micro-genre of joke remixes and i really hope it takes off soon. somebody put radiohead creep through enhance ai and ive been thinking about "so ferkin special" ever since

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PUXEqP_uzFU

@lazerwalker It sounds like Terraria cave music. I like it.

@lazerwalker

All I can hear is "Turn me on dead man, turn me on dead man..." :-D

https://www.huffpost.com/entry/reverse-speech-revolution_n_5288920

@lazerwalker reminds me of years ago when people would play popular music backwards for subliminal messages, this would’ve been a riot

@lazerwalker does the “AI” stand for Apophenia Instrument?

@lazerwalker don’t blame AI on the satanic messages you hide in your chiptunes

@lazerwalker Love that. Like the early days of image recognition where you could force the DL to find hallucinatory dogs that didn't exist in anything.

@lazerwalker that’s kinda fun even if cursed

@lazerwalker It’s the modern substitute for playing records backwards.

@lazerwalker That's why I gave it the sound of a flushing toilet and of the dishwasher. Ran that through #ElevenLabs dub feature and told it to output English. The result is... Well, embedded in this weirdness I created:
A Very Freaky Dream: https://youtu.be/7h1Ock4XRa4

@lazerwalker I guess it'll try to find some "satanic lyrics" in it...

I wounder how well it handles extremely agressive #vocoders like #TWELP, #MELPe or #Codec2...

@lazerwalker this reminds me of the game #Oxenfree. Not directly to anything in the game, but this reaaally seems like a mechanic the game could have used somehow.

@lazerwalker this is very funny. Thank you for sharing

@lazerwalker now let a speech to text ai figure out what it says

@lazerwalker
Holy shit

@lazerwalker Ooh, electronic voice phenomena for computers!

@lazerwalker why do i kina like the sound of that, can we please make this a music genre?

@lazerwalker

So it's got psychosis.

There are modern drugs that control it pretty well in humans.

One is quetiapine, also known as Seroquel as a trade name.

SeroQueL

🤭

@lazerwalker autotune ++

@lazerwalker
Interested to hear what it will output for Non-English speach. Will it convert it into English? Will it just work?

@lazerwalker honestly this is a wonderful example of environmental drift.

@lazerwalker @neckspike lol, that's grand and the absolute opposite of what tools like KRISP do (if you pass any music track through KRISP it turns it into a mostly acapella version)

@lazerwalker oh that's creepy as heck

@lazerwalker @esther I learned about that recently. I think it’s called overfitting because the AI is trained only by rewarding output that is speech.

It’s the same for AI translation, and it’s the reason why, if you set Google Translate’s input language to Latin, and type random made-up words ending in um or us, it will “find sense” in them.

It’s worth trying for yourself, it would be hilarious if it wasn’t causing do many problems.

@lazerwalker now do white noise 😂👍

@lazerwalker probably the devil talking

@lazerwalker I'm inclined to ask you for SIMlish or Animal Crossing 😅

@lazerwalker it’s parAIdolia!

Pretty excellent example of the not always so subtle human biases can infect non-human systems.

@lazerwalker

Someone please feed ‘Enhance AI’ some r2d2 dialog. I want to find out what Artoo was telling 3p0

@lazerwalker this is what i sound like when i'm working at my computer with headphones on

@lazerwalker pinging @goto80 for greatness!

@lazerwalker Me talking to the cat in the morning

@lazerwalker i like the effect tho

@lazerwalker In Asimov's "Three Laws" setting, I suspect there's assholes who give robots orders which cannot be obeyed (like "translate this document" when the document is random gibberish) just for funsies, because humans are scum.

Of course, the risk is that the robot will find the translation and then summon back the Elder Gods.

(Something close to this, unintentionally, did happen in one story: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Robot_AL-76_Goes_Astray)
