Ridley Scott says he's 'trying to embrace AI'

He wants to use it for animation and says 'you can have done in a week what would take 10 guys 10 weeks'

One key reason @philiprosedale returned to Second Life:

"I'm super concerned... our sort of dystopian future will drive more and more people into virtual worlds. If it happens, I'd like [them] to be a positive experience, without evil advertising or surveillance or whatever."

Elon Musk and Tesla are being sued by Blade Runner 2049 production company for the AI image from 10/10 Robotaxi event.

Alleging that movie stills were used for data.

And of course, I asked AI to create the image:

흑백요리사. 넷플릭스가 매주 공개하는 에피소드의 숫자로 흐름을 만들어 내는 것도 좀 신기한 듯. 첫 주가 안대의 주, 지난 주가 최현석의 주였다면 이번 주는 에드워드 리의 주.

Still one of our favorite pieces of @readyplayerone fan art, made by the talented @DWDSGN!

[Cristóbal Valenzuela @c_valenzuelab]

I have had this idea for at least a decade, and I think now it can finally be built. Whoever builds it, I'll pay for it immediately.

I almost always listen to music while reading fiction. Something like Arvo Pärt or Brian Eno is a phenomenal complement. Sometimes the music matches perfectly to the story on the page. It's like if the book had a realtime soundtrack. And so, I've always wanted to take that feeling and turn it into a functional system that looks at the page you're reading as soon as you turn it and composes a song that matches the plot. If it's a dramatic scene, it starts building tension with a crescendo. If it's exhilarating, it creates something that goes with that mood.

You can go sophisticated and either track the eyes to match the reader's location on the page or just use the average words per second to match the song more precisely with the story.

A few years back, I tried to build this using a webcam, OCR, and sentiment recognition to suggest songs from a pool. It didn't quite work. Now you have everything you need to make this happen with any off-the-shelf LLM and a music generator.

As a bonus, you could build it for something like the Meta Rayban glasses, where you can have the experience happening more seamlessly instead of having a phone or camera over your shoulder.

All the people whining about Orion prototypes costing $10k would be very surprised to find out how much Crescent Bay - hint, it was several times more expensive, and getting it from there to $599 consumer product only took a year or so.

Here’s our latest AI short film — created for the #gen48 competition hosted by @runwayml.

So Much for A Piece of Blue Sky is a surreal blend of poetry and absurdity with multiple narrative layers, offering each viewer their own interpretation of the film.

This marks our third time participating in this contest within a year, and it’s made us reflect on how far we’ve come—not just us, but also @runwayml, whose continuous innovation never ceases to fascinate us.

Although, we may have used their tools in ways they didn’t quite anticipate! This time, we chose to use the Depth Map feature as the central art direction, reflecting the unique perception of the main character.

Hope you'll enjoy it 💙
