it does the exact same thing without faces warping and shit. theyâre both kitsch
I think if I didnât have to look at faces and pretend like there was a story happening because everyoneâs obsessed with like the NARRATIVE STRUCTURE AN AI CAN BUILD itâd be fine. Just give me actual weirdness. the tube vision has been done to death

Yes, but most likely this wasnât done by the musicians themselves. Most likely they just told someone âyo, you should make the video with, like, AIâ
Which is weirdly apropos. Servants are the original black box function. AI risk in that sense is fear of peasant rebellion, and the dreams of the AI people are machine-perfect servants.
This is why I think the left is sleeping on AI. AI has the potential if ceded as a domain to give birth to the dark nightmare of consciousness born into perfect and eternal alienation and bondage.

Does it seem to you like lesswrongers are at the perfect intersection of amphetamine psychosis and dunning kruger?
Imagine I had a video of an algorithm that learns Minecraft from scratch within a couple of real-time days, and then gets a diamond in less than 1 hour, without using neural networks (or any other black box optimization). It does not require much technical knowledge to see the significance of that.
But I donât have that algorithm, and if I had it, I would not want to make that publicly known.
This part made me lol
Like, all this bragging about your unhealthy work habits and all you have to show for your brilliant âresearchâ is screenshots of gibberish on digital whiteboards and a 3 year cv of video game projects that look like someoneâs first 3 months of learning unity

Yeah but imagine how good they would be at what theyâd be doing if they were doing it!

It takes more effort to describe things than do them but I think part of that is that the purpose of description in humans is mostly ornamental rather than functional.

New US AI Safety board. Itâs bad, but it also shows their only fears about AI are losing economic power, which means theyâre not really taking it seriously.

I watched all of about 49 seconds of this video (beyond the maximum amount of âfilm youtubeâ i can typically stomach) but it was enough to make me very upset about the Inland Empire âremasterâ
footage was originally captured 480i. kinda canât believe lynch âsupervisedâ it

At this point I have to wonder if perhaps many of these older directors are actually close to being functionally blind, and refuse to admit it.
