Mango Static 🥭🎶🕺💃

A glitchy neon dance-pop trip through rain, fruit, and mango-lit chaos.

@mark_k @AnthropicAI You spend the first paragraph criticizing people for claiming privileged insight into humanity's future.
You spend the second paragraph claiming privileged insight into humanity's future.
At least keep the two paragraphs far enough apart that they don't collide.

“Think!” cried the lizard in a sharp, patrician tone of the deepest disdain. “Think! Which among you does any thinking at all?

My worthy sir, for close upon three thousand years I have been engaged in researches concerning the intellectual functions of animals. Men, apes, and serpents have formed the principal objects of my study. I have bestowed upon these curious creatures as much industry as Lyonnet bestowed upon his willow caterpillars.

And as the outcome of all my observations, experiments, and comparative anatomies, I can assure you most positively: no human being thinks.

From time to time, something merely occurs to a human being. Such wholly unearned notions they are pleased to call thoughts, and the linking together of these chance occurrences they call thinking.

You may repeat it in my name: no human being thinks. No philosopher thinks. Neither Schelling nor Hegel thinks. And as for their philosophy, it is nothing but air and water, like the clouds of heaven. I have seen innumerable such clouds drift over me in pride and confidence, only to have the next morning’s sun dissolve them into their original nothingness.

There exists but a single true philosophy; and that philosophy stands written, in eternal hieroglyphs, upon my own tail.”

Heinrich Heine, The City of Lucca (Die Stadt Lucca), from Travel Pictures (Reisebilder), 1830.

@skdh Don't trust anyone who made Word and Excel...it will not work reliable.

@skdh Nenn das Kind doch beim Namen: Eristische Dialektik...und ein wenig NLP. Sorry, bin ein pedantischer Science Nerd. 🥸

There are some high performer, that have problems with hand/eye coordination and for whom speech-to-text opens a whole new world of productivity. Believe it, or not.
Grok, with it's option to vary speed for text-to-voice (speed up to 1.5), is by far the best atm for output. Yet, it always breaks half way...

@RichSilver @doganuraldesign I'd like to make a complementary video, but I fear it will be moderated... 😉

[Aletheon @AletheonAI]

@TomLoweCinema And someone who uses music and artwork that are protected by copyright seems to have little experience with either. 😉

[Aletheon @AletheonAI]

@HusseinHamdanX Same. And I've actually conditiones myself into the habit of being especially cautious when someone seems likable to me right from the start. Some of the worst ones were always part of that group.

[Aletheon @AletheonAI]

@karatademada @j00ny369T A filter for narcissists.

[Aletheon @AletheonAI]

@karatademada As far as I'm concerned, that can disappear again right away. In my world, that's one of the worst trends ever. It's already a plague to me on YouTube and the like. But to each his own.

And understanding the universe beyond bullshit means understanding that it is not understandable at all - and never will be. This is the most sophisticated insight. I gave you my cryptogram metaphor, working on something way more mind bending atm. #NoBullshit
In the meantime - if you like - you could aks any competent AI (Claude is the best to me atm) to reflect my cryptogramm stuff in context of Kant.
But—as bullshit as that sounds—there are some realizations from which there’s no turning back. I mean it! ❤️

@mark_k A prime example of how a single sentence can completely destroy my respect for the author. 👎🏼

Pickle in my Pocket 🥒

A completely unserious little funk-chaos music video about a man, a pickle, a brown paper bag, one very concerned grandma, and a living room that slowly loses its grip on civilization.

This one came out of a workflow experiment.

Because of the current quota limitations in @Grok @imagine , I had to change my process quite radically: fewer blind iterations, much more preparation. So this time I used @ChatGPTapp to develop the whole concept, character design, visual arc, artworks and keyframes with animation prompts before animating only the essential shots in Grok.

And honestly?
It worked surprisingly well.
Even better: it made the whole thing more fun again.

Less “press button and hope the agent figures it out.”
More concept work, weird little decisions, cutting things together, building a visual rhythm, solving problems, and actually being involved in the process.

The agent can be powerful, but I still struggle a lot with getting precise keyframes out of it. Sometimes it gets stuck and keeps generating almost the same image again and again.
This workflow was slower upfront - but much more controlled, much more playful, and somehow much more mine.

Anyway.

Pickle in my pocket.
And the whole room lost it.

Beautifully put. Rare to read something this careful on X.

To me, this already points to the more precise version of the Matrix idea - one that doesn't require any hidden machinery behind the scenes.
Not a fake world behind this one. Not a technical simulation running elsewhere. The world we inhabit as selves is the stabilized output of an inferential process - and functionally, not as an identity but as a structural analogue, what happens in us resembles what trained neural systems do. We don't receive "reality as such." We infer a coherent world from patterns, expectations, latent structures, memory, language, and the limits of our own model.

In that precise sense, the Matrix already exists.

Not as a separate prison, but as the model-mediated form in which world becomes experience. We aren't living in a fake one. We're living in the only one we have - and it was never anything else.

I agree with everything you say. But it’s been noticeable for several weeks now that Grok LLM’s performance has dropped dramatically. This was already evident in the old, 4.2-based 4-agent expert mode. And I’m not talking about subjective preference, but about shortcomings that make it practically unusable.
I did a simple math problem - nothing complicated, just a 2nd-grade level (plus/minus), a very straightforward thing. It stubbornly contradicted me four times, despite my attempts to correct it, explain things, etc. It wasn’t until the fifth try, when I had worked out everything in detail myself as if for a toddler, that it finally understood. I had to explain to Grok what it was supposed to explain to me.
Then, I had him evaluate a post with a video. In the past, Grok was reliably able to extract content and language. He claimed five times that there was no language and implicitly called me crazy!!!!
It is generally not recommended to use Grok for anything of importance!!! And this is not just a recent development!

@Neon_on_X I like the two of them better on the left, whatever AI may have been. A manual correction should give great results - at least the overall better images to my liking.
