 This video of some AI dude showing his work to Hayao Miyazaki is utterly brilliant. I think Miyazaki-san sums up my own feelings about using AI for creative work at the end:  "We humans are losing faith in ourselves."

 @210de87f An interesting experiment I've tried: Want to find out what terms are empty, overused makeweight in your field? Start typing a general statement & watch an LLM try to autocomplete it by adding them.

 @210de87f I've seen this before and it bears a rewatch but you know what strikes me this time?

That they didn't have a problem to solve. They couldn't seem to explain why they had been working on this. That's why they seemed to be grasping at straws as to what to do with it. This on the week that Microsoft is looking to build their own nuclear reactors to power their language models they call "AI", which nobody really wants. Because it is a solution looking for a problem.
