Espale Studios’ Post

This might seem like a silly thing to post but I admit this does bug me. Last night #60Minutes did a piece on #Nvidia #CEO Jensen Huang. It was very well done and anyone interested in #AI's future and Nvidia's role would find it interesting. But they also talk about a company called #QBrick which uses AI to create incredibly realistic interactive video. "QBrick" is meant to refer to #StanleyKubrick and, of course, they refer to #HAL9000 "going rogue." People who've seen #2001SpaceOdyssey will remember HAL killed 4 of the 5 astronauts and tried to kill the 5th. So people people say "HAL went rogue". No it didn't. I don't know if people forgot the sequel #2010 #TheYearWeMakeContact or maybe they never saw it. But as this clip explains, HAL was told not reveal the true nature of the mission to #Jupiter to the two astronauts who piloting the ship. They thought it was a discovery mission, they were specifically not told about the #monolith. However HAL knew about it and was told to keep it a secret. As HAL's programmer says, "HAL was told to lie" which computers don't know how to do. That put it into a kind of mental breakdown. The reason this bugs me is the lesson doesn't seem to be getting through. The people telling HAL to keep secrets didn't understand what they were messing with (even HAL's programmer wasn't told about HAL's instructions). My point is it's easy to find people today who talk about the dangers of #artificialintelligence. #AI isn't the danger. It's our failing to understand what we've created and how easy it is to unintentionally use it the wrong way. AI is a #tool and it's up to us to learn how to use the tool responsibly. I wasn't able to splice the clip, but the relevant part to my point begins around the two minute mark.

Brief: Core ideas: 1) Achieving Immortality + AIA + Humanoid Generic Robot + Cross Scale Intelligence; 2) Minerals, energy and computing power are the most critical resources in the future; Wang Xingxing's personal conjectures. Hope it can be...

the alternative of the best solution😂😁

I've been working on how to grasp models of algorithms and processes. Sometimes the best way to understand them is to work (or play) with them. So here is an experiment of Perceptual Inference through getting to know one's own limits. Active Inference Institute #actinf #models #doing #digitalkinesthetics

A cool experiment by Abandoned Films: Super Mario - 1950's Super Panavision 70 style made with #midjourney #elevenlabs, #runwayai and edited in Premiere. Script by Chat GPT. The movements are a bit jerky, but with its consistency of character and space, it's easy to see where things can go with this tech. However, still no proper storytelling as seems to be the case with every AI created video compilation. - Characters don't do anything; this is a compilation of slightly moving images rather than anything comparable to filmmaking - It's a collage-like trailer rather than a story; there's no character development or motivation (this wasn't the intention either) Pretty damn nice demo, nevertheless! I just like to keep pointing out the differences to actual storytelling, until there is nothing to point out anymore.

Is Our World Just a High-Tech #Simulation? 🤔 Do you think it's possible that the world is artificial? Is the world a high-tech computer game or a #matrix? Vyacheslav: "Absolutely, I believe so. The #creator made the world material. But can the material be infinite, as materialists claim? No, this is nonsense. Matter cannot be infinite; it must have a beginning. The world is finite and contained within something. As we evolve, our understanding of the world changes. In ancient times, lightning was Thor's hammer or Zeus's wrath. Today, we view the world as a computer game inside a processor. As we continue to evolve, we need an artificial mind—an artificial intelligence—to explore beyond the boundaries of this perceived 'processor.' This is what will help us understand our world beyond its current limits." Watch the full discussion: https://lnkd.in/gZ2VHmJQ

Imagine a world where iconic films like Terminator, Dune, or even Shrek never existed... but trailers for them did! 🤔 The Abandoned Films channel on YouTube and Instagram uses AI and Photoshop to create hauntingly beautiful trailers for these "retro movies" that never graced the silver screen. ️ While the AI-generated visuals give them away (think charmingly weird glitches!), these trailers capture the essence of 50s cinema, complete with a booming narrator and stop-motion vibes reminiscent of King Kong and early Godzilla. Sure, the characters might just stare into the distance and morph a bit (extra creepy for The Walking Dead! 😯 ), but these trailers showcase the incredible advancements in AI video generation.
