Paid Members Jazzy G Posted September 9 Paid Members Posted September 9 I watched the Mr T documentary on Netflix and it had these really weird AI comic panel style images dotted throughout the thing. Really annoying. It's not like Netflix can't afford actual artists. Quote

Paid Members hallicks Posted September 10 Paid Members Posted September 10 This person is militantly anti-AI and it’s very life-affirming: https://ploum.net/2026-09-09-ai_policy.html I will not read your website, I will ignore your emails and I will happily walk away from real-life conversations as soon as it is clear that I’m not talking to a fully sentient Homo sapiens sapiens but to an empty shell who has happily delegated their cognitive abilities to an external proprietary tool designed to be some sort of "random average garbage."

Paid Members hallicks Posted September 15 Paid Members Posted September 15 Valerie Veatch’s “Ghost in the machine” is now available on PBS and YouTube, but I think you will need a US VPN to access: https://www.pbs.org/independentlens/documentaries/ghost-in-the-machine/ The overall conclusion is essentially, AI = eugenics, which probably isn’t that surprising given the people pushing it. I think there’s a UK release next month if you can’t access it. Quote

What I found amazing was they could interview an AI bot and still Ed Balls was the most wooden and least charismatic person on the screen. I found that quite depressing really. Obviously they've gone with the AI playing AI to test the waters for reaction and to get people on board. Quote
Paid Members JNLister Posted September 16 Paid Members Posted September 16 Sitcom written by an alleged human but video created entirely by AI, which earned a 0 star rating in The Guardian. Notable really for being a perfect example of AI being a 90% solution where in some ways it's amazing how close to real you can make stuff, but also amazing just how important the remaining 10% it can't get right is. But I genuinely don't think we're far off the point where a wrestling promotion decides it's viable to make shows using this and not have to bother with silly stuff like real arenas and wrestlers.

One day soon Cody Rhodes is going to turn up to Raw and they're going to give him a watch, kick him in the butt and say 'hey, a computer took your place daddy'. Quote
