The best thing AI is doing for society is making it abundantly clear who gives a shit about their product and customers and who does not. Spend accordingly
Wow… I honestly didn’t expect to see a brand as huge as Samsung use a fully AI-generated video for one of its products.
I’m surprised that a brand with Samsung’s budget, talent, and production capabilities chose to generate an entire photorealistic commercial instead of filming it for real and that it’s already being used as an actual Instagram ad.
AI-generated advertising went mainstream much faster than I expected…
What do you think?
@theWokeholics Your whole movement has amounted to protecting pedophiles and renaming bodies of water. Don’t think you’re one to speak about having balls 🤷♂️
JUST IN: President Trump has signed an executive order changing the name of Lake Ontario to "Lake America." The name change is "effective immediately," Trump said. https://t.co/pvptUp6pBm
One of the many tragic effects of this administration is that nobody will ever look at executive department heads as anything other than political lackeys ever again.
I don’t see how we regain trust that the department of justice is anything more than the presidents personal attorneys without completely separating it from presidential control in the future
And don’t say ‘Merrick Garland blah blah blah’ nothing in US history has ever come close to this administration
WELKER: Can you pledge the DOJ will always act independently of the White House?
BLANCHE: No, I'm not going to pledge that, and no attorney general ever should
WELKER: So if the president asked you do to something that you feel crosses an ethical or legal line, would you do it?
BLANCHE: He would never do that. He never has. He never will.

NEWS 🚨: Astronomers have discovered an entirely new type of cosmic object called a "black hole star"
It's the size of our solar system, emits 100 billion times more energy than any star, and may finally explain JWST's mysterious "little red dots"
Apple TV has maybe figured out the SECRET that no other streaming service has figured out
This one factor that sets them apart from the rest: uh, really good content and not treating customers like shit
Yeah pretty much they just threw a bunch of money at really competent directors and insanely thoroughly vetted screenplays until they amassed a frankly insane list of banger programming
And then they kept making it. Even if basically nobody watched a show they would renew it to give the showrunners a chance to tell their full story. This is genius on several levels
> the audience gets to see the full story play out
> the directors and screenwriters working with Apple TV know they have much greater support to tell their stories
> actors who sign with Apple TV know they won’t be suddenly dropped on a dime
It’s not a coincidence that Brett Goldstein has appeared in, written and produced multiple Apple TV shows. It’s the entire strategy
Apple TV wants to be the best place for the best storytellers to tell the best stories. That’s the business model. Will it work? I don’t know. But it’s a great experience so far
