I had so much fun chatting with the lovely Bettina Makalintal for this VICE article on ambience videos. She goes into such great detail about this every-growing niche. Such a good read!
A trillionair, yet his name does not appear on a single school, university, library, museum wing, hospital, stadium, arena, airport, or endowed chairs. What a colossal waste of a human lifetime.
And I didn't use AI to write it! I used my brain and a keyboard! The ideas in it were generated by human beings collaborating. Weird, right? We had fun, delivered on time, and stayed within budget!
Maybe we don't need or want this plagiarism pipeline of slop being forced on us.

No AI was used in making any part of this. Just 3D (Maya), human heart, and self recorded and licensed tracks.

"Fuck you all, we will own ALL art" is basically the only way loser conservatives and fascists can "win" the culture war. Comics, movies, TV and music. None of the little delights and escapes that enrich your soul are safe.
Gorillaz have released their new animated short film ‘THE MOUNTAIN, THE MOON CAVE AND THE SAD GOD’
“In a time of Al overload, this is our love letter to craftsmanship. We're chasing the feel of pencil on paper.”

For what it's worth - I believe that if you use AI to brainstorm ideas for your book, plan chapters, help with structure, edit, create dialogue, make story suggestions or ANY part of the creative writing process you are a hack and a fraud. You are not an author.
I find it bleak how many people seem to have given up on having any kind of intellectual life. Depression is rampant because we’ve abandoned books & hobbies in favor of joyless amusements. The single most attractive thing a person can do is read often & delight in learning.
