Daft Punk - Harder, Better, Faster, Stronger (Official Video)

Not at all. I love the idea of Copilot and similar systems! [VIDEO] I have a tiny issue with those systems if/when they output certain memorized content. But that’s a type of bug, which can be avoided. Also I didn’t say I want credit when someone copies my coding style. But if I was being credited, as this woman is being implicitly credited, I would have even less than no reason to complain.

Impressive. It's only going to get better, faster, cheaper, easier.[a] Sooner than anyone could have expected, we'll be able to ask the machines: "Turn this book into a two-hour movie with the likeness of [your favorite actor/actress] in the lead role." Sooner than anyone could have expected, we'll be able to have immersive VR experiences that are crafted to each person. Sooner than anyone could have expected, we won't be able to identify deepfakes anymore. We sure live in interesting times! --- [a] With apologies to Daft Punk: [VIDEO]

This is thematically amazing when you consider what the song is about — the roboticization of the abducted band. (Music video:) [VIDEO] In this song, which is also chapter four of the movie Interstella 5000 movie (spoilers from here!), the knocked-out singers are scanned, parameterized, brainwashed, uploaded into The Matrix, and then used in the following songs of the movie-album to robotically mass produce music. It makes perfect sense that the BPM is 123.45 because that’s exactly the sort of thing you get when a manager (who’s shown at the end!) just enters some numbers on the keyboard into the bpm field. They don’t keysmash the numpad; they just hit 123456789 until the field is full! So not only does the song itself convey what some boss thinks is music, robotically beating at 123.45 bpm, but it is itself about being endlessly-rotating brainwashed-boring cogs in a pop music production industrial machine. I’m pretty sure the movie scene cuts and animations are timed specifically to the beats of the song, but knowing that they’re timed to a machine-specific bpm that a human would never select at random with a metronome? Absolute genius. I had no idea. Thanks for posting this.
