I’m super happy that it wasn’t like Fury Road. I love Fury Road, but I don’t want to see any more attempts at recapturing that lightning, because it never worked well.
Furiosa is a great installment because it’s different and offers more than just action. One of the reasons I loved the first three films is them showing the post-apocalyptic world, giving us lore freaks something to munch over.
That’s a direct pipeline, it seems. Goes straight to the EU.
There’s a different pipeline (maybe several, not sure) going through Ukraine.
Obligatory fuck AI and the illeterate bros pushing it.
What kind of videos, though? A lot of such material is very far from being proper educational material that we show other people to really teach them much, let alone educate them well enough to be anywhere trustworthy. This is a very processed material, with years of preparation once you consider the prior education of the individuals involved in the creative process - think of the past experiences silently influencing them, their initial knowledge on the subject obtained from somewhat basic facts from school or otherwise, their misconceptions, iterations that nobody knows about, and many other things that we don’t usually directly associate with the act of working on something like a video, but that eventually do dictate a lot of the decisions and opinions put into it.
It’s one thing that the AI has no intelligence in it whatsoever, but the fact that it’s being pumped with information and “knowledge” in basically the reverse order doesn’t help it become any better.
On the other hand, the entire thing is not about making something that works well, but something that sells well. And then there’s people putting too much faith into the thing and trusting it with way too much stuff than they should (which is also the case with a lot of other tech, though, admittedly).
Some things of today are so damn unexciting.
We’re very proficient at walking, but somehow haven’t produced a walking home or anything like that.
It’s not very linear.
Happy to help!
A gentle nudge towards, let’s say, alternative means of acquiring media to enjoy. One that, ironically enough, Neil Gaiman commended himself (under certain circumstances, of course). One that is still better than giving money to someone you don’t want to support as a person or a creator.
Reeks of the chat history access attempts and the like, or is it just my paranoia?
