Keep your eye on the donut and not on the hole.

In memory of David Lynch, we will continue to explore the otherworldly and the unknown. We will focus not on the loss, but on what we gained from the years we shared this planet with you. We will see you in our dreams.

Getting to see the Doom mask and scarab I made for Badu in the same show was some real bucket list shit. #CampFlogGnaw @strangelooptv / @gavcloud

@quasimondo the need for a wiki or KB that encompasses Comfy / AD is palpable. There are custom GPTs within ChatGPT for Comfy as well.

Here's a fun AI story: a security researcher noticed that large companies' AI-authored source-code repeatedly referenced a nonexistent library (an AI "hallucination"), so he created a (defanged) malicious library with that name and uploaded it.

@presstube I’ve been dipping my toes into taking more notes on content, post-consumption. Without reflection or space between, it can feel compulsive.

@Cabbibo Maybe it will make regular scams less successful over time as everyone becomes hyper-skeptical

Thanks to @DigitalArtFair for the opportunity to share some thoughts on art and AI.

Infinite high quality media generated on a per-user basis will erode our shared world model and narratives. Expansive yet hyper-niche culture bubbles forming around handfuls of people. The next gen may only have a few ideas they agree exist, a few nations and corporate entities. Everything else will be content produced just for them, unseen by anyone.

This will be accelerated by high quality ai bots that act as friends, and long-distance lovers. These bots will form life long relationships with individuals, getting to know them in deeper ways than any other person could. They'll create online social communities around an audience of just a few, or one person, reducing people's need to share their experiences elsewhere.

The music, shows, movies, memes and in-jokes shared in these bot based social communities will be generated on demand and entirely unseen by other people, and visa versa. Each person literally in their own world.

And these content-bot streams will be hyper focused to each individual's impulses and desires, giving them exactly what they want to see next. The ultimate fire-hose of dopamine. It will be both extremely isolating and pleasurable in unimaginable ways.

It's going to make the physical world excruciating for these people. Imagine the next wave of iPad babies, but plugged into this maximally personalized system, rather than just YouTube. The withdrawals they'll experience without it will be debilitating.

It's clear to see that as spatial computing becomes more ubiquitous, AR glasses will be used full time, in addition to phones, for an always plugged in life. @keiichiban 's Hyper Reality does a good job of eliciting the anxiety of this kind of world. But, it won't all be anxiety, it'll also be hyper pleasurable for the impulsive mind.

It's going to be the ultimate internal war between your brain's bottom-up processes that respond to raw sensory input with instincts, desire, and automatic responses. Versus your top-town cognition, trying to exert willpower and reasoning to use these content-bot streams to summon things leading to self-actualization.

In that way, it wont be all bad. It'll be an immensely powerful amplifier for the neural pathways you can guide it towards. But our primitive brain is very powerful. And I suspect most people will be swept beneath this coming wave, rather than developing the skill to ride it.

This difference in ability to influence and control these systems will create a caste system, between those shaped by these systems and those shaping them. Training and fine tuning the models is one thing, but using them versus being used by them is another. I suspect this skill will become the primary focus of higher education. Somewhere between prompt engineering, pattern recognition, and being a kind of neural network whisperer, who's able to shape their reality through sheer willpower.

Ash is a pocket AI nature guide for kids inspired by Ash's Pokédex. It helps children connect with and learn about the biodiversity around them.

I absolutely adore the simplicity of Ash.

Thank you @VogueHK for the cover photo on the article covering @DigitalArtFair. I worked for months to bring this sculpture to life. The response has been overwhelming and it was a small miracle it all came together so beautifully.
