    There is no tough road, we just dont want it.

    AI is like duping / hacking in items in a video game. Its just not the same as earning it yourself. When we watch a video that is clearly AI we know its an amalgamation of stolen material from real humans who you could have just hired.

    I was learning about that math problem AI “solved” recently (the one about fluid dynamics). It was so on brand for AI to swoop in at the end and solve the problem on the backs of every piece of research that came before it and then claim the win as if it earned its spot at the proverbial podium.

      Thank you! What a shit headline, casting AI “filmmaking” as some sort of fucking plucky upstart.

        How did it cost $1.5 million dollars to input a prompt and then, when it doesn’t generate what you want, retyping that prompt with a “what I meant wuz”?

        Seems like the Infinite Monkey Theorem, since it can try an infinite amount of times trying to create something a human would.

      They didn’t even swoop in at the last minute and solve shit

      They literally stole the work and the answer from a real mathematician who had completed the equation but not yet published.

    I hope that in the future, we look back at “the world’s first fully AI generated [X]” with the same kind of attitude how we look back at UFOlogists who kept saying “probably the most well-documented UFO encounter in history.” (…they say that about all of them)
