🧵: I discovered this woman, who I call Loab, in April. The AI reproduced her more easily than most celebrities. Her presence is persistent, and she haunts every image she touches. CW: Take a seat. This is a true horror story, and veers sharply macabre.
@jetskitosway2 I mean it would be a completely untenable system for films - so if your film never gets distro it just sits in the database forever with no year, even if it premiered?
Important to add, @JF_NewYork's JFF THEATER is currently streaming Kiyoshi Kurosawa’s widely unavailable LICENSE TO LIVE for FREE. Starring Hidetoshi Nishijuma and Koji Yakusho, this is essential viewing!

I can't imagine a future in which a Letterboxd sale does not result in everyone's data being used to train AI for curation, recs tailored to "niche" interests, greenlighting & marketing. A digital pancaking of everything wild & enthralling about discovering film culture.
