Point is, ai is great at generating novel instances of commodified content (photos of old cars), it’s passable patching together commodified content (style swaps, setting swaps) but you can’t just magic things that we don’t already know (future tech, forgotten history).
This is a great example of the weak point ai realism. There are lots of photos of old cars and people in suits in the training data, so it pretty much nails those. But there are likely no videos of actual heads getting blown off, so you get exploding watermelon/cgi.

this blew my mind, a moment from history that always looked fuzzy… now it feels like you’re standing there

@binji_x Is anyone actually doing this in a serious way? I’ve seen lots of people talk about owning your data, but haven’t seen anyone building anything that actually accomplishes it.
@binji_x The only viable alternative I’ve seen is “enter your address”. There needs to be some way to indicate to the app where it should route the request to. Other approaches make assumptions about wallet format (mobile app vs web app vs extension)
@chrlyz777 The lack of a serious open source wallet renders this entire industry kind of a joke. Holding out hope we’ll get it together once the existing players become obviously extractive.
@0xDesigner Only nit with the parallel is NFTs have no buried treasure. You can’t dig through a rack and find something of value that has gone unrecognized. NFTs are too traceable and easily valued for that. The bot will find the mispricing long before the regular collector will.
@9354doteth @punk6529 They actually used to have more of this, but it didn’t help. No one reads it and it’s a turn off for people onboarding to crypto. No company wants to introduce that kind of friction at such a delicate moment.
@0xDesigner Generic in that if it does everything then it’s not going to do any one thing the best. There are different qualities I’m looking for in different contexts and no reason to think the team that’s the best at making one thing would also be the best at making all the other things
