I'm trying to decide if the acting would be worse if it was the real Gal Gadot or an AI version...

I cannot wait for this to become a huge critical and commercial failure. It has the potential to give AI the massive setback it deserves.
It's gonna be an utter failure critically. It will make a shitton of money from people wanting to see how bad it is.

"THIS IS THE FUTURE! GET ON BOARD OR GET LEFT BEHIND!"
My school district hired a new superintendent last year. When he gave his introductory presentation, he included a bit about how AI was here to stay and we were just going to have to live with it and use it. Something that is objectively making kids dumber and the school super is completely on board with it.
Heh, my kid said that the school required that teachers play a presentation from the school board. The topic was that using AI was cheating, and not to do it. Also, they used AI to make the presentation.
let them all go on this train and never come back please !
Yeah, that's not career suicide at all. She'll be working with The Daily Wire next.
I mean, can you name a movie she’s been in since Wonder Woman? Literally the last thing I can remember from her was the video of she put out during covid of celebrities looking for attention.
She did some of those fake streaming blockbusters that no-one you know has ever watched or even heard of.
Did you forget the Disney movie she did? Dang, what was it called?
English people in 19th century China: Opium is inevitable. You're going to work with it or be left out of the game entirely.
Just the evil English, obviously

Scotland has an absolutely god-tier PR game, passing themselves off as a victim of the nasty old English when they were a prolific colonising country too.
Scotland is the Austria of the UK
Right? And I say this as someone with a lot of Scots friends and family. They are demons who will deep fry your kebab and they’re all in the SAS.
I’d like to think I’d cut people off if they joined the SAS, but is it the whole, assembled (with or without sauce) kebab or just the warm fillings? Because I kind of want to see what a whole kebab tastes like deep fried… /s
She found a vehicle where her acting won't be the most artificial thing in the room.
The change towards AI entertainment is inevitable, I for once can't wait for all that low quality crap that is release every year to be fully-AI so I can filter it out, and stuff with real artistic merit and passion becomes easier to find

I got bad news for ya
only if you don't know the lengths I go through to make my lists nor how familiar I am with movie/series databases :)
Worst case scenario, I'll just decide on a cutoff date (probably somewhere between 2021 and 2029) and focus on stuff created before that date, which will contain almost all of the man-made media and none of the genAI slop.
There is a ton of really cool stuff I heard about for me to go through anyway. Video games alone should last me well past the Hayflick limit (hard limit for a human lifetime unless radical life extension breakthroughs happen). To say nothing of movies/anime, books/comics/manga, crafts, causes, etc...
I hope my ai agent can learn what I like and give me suitable recommendations based on that.
Part if why ai is so overvalued is companies don't value my time. Slop won't fix that. I'm hooeful that ai agents allow us to filter out the junk we don't want. No more waiting on hold. No made searching online for deals and product reviews. Just agents parsing data that we want.
For entertainment, there was a shift when we moved from broadcast to digital as we could binge and not miss episodes. The rise of reality TV muddied the waters of quality and was the equivalent of ai slop. However those that preferred, avoided it.
Of course that won't be automatic. We're going to need open models, open training data and a great FOSS ecosystem around personal agents. We also need to make sure that the means of compute don't fall out of people's hands.
Oh boy, did that rub everyone the wrong way.
Either way, you could have your own LLM agent and run it locally. That way your recommendations wouldn’t be steered towards greatest quarterly revenue. Instead, it would be something that actually serves your purposes.

Ignoring everything else, that wouldn't work. Your local llm instance, to recommend you new movies, would have to scour the internet to summarize information about them.
Boom, thats the vector of it getting steered towards greatest quarterly revenue.
Yeah that’s true. Search results, movie reviews and blogs definitely can be used to steer it in any direction. You just need to keep the LLM on a very short leash and keep a close eye on its diet. Takes some effort to do this properly.
That defeats the purpose then.
If the goal is to say "hi, my local LLM, recommend me a new movie that I like, because god forbid I'll take a risk and grow", then you having to curate the data feed going into LLM to describe new movies is in practice this:
- you'll have to find sources of data (websites, threads, communicties)
- verify each and everyone for poisoning BEFORE adding to your deterministic vectorization (see what Netflix did for recommendation algorithm recently) and applying custom LLM-like in architecture model.
Tl;dr;
Either you can use LLM and will be steered towards greatest quarterly revenue OR you have to put the same effort as if reading all reviews from multiple sources by yourself
And in both cases you still end up with the same outcome "maybe you'll like it" :P
Unless there are community based information sources. Adblock works mainly by blacklisting. Foss agents could use a combination of blacklisting and whitelisting in the same way. Yes, it takes effort, but spread over a community, it's minimal. In the days before internet, it meant buying a magazine or newspaper. There has always been a certain amount of effort to find reviews, other than word of mouth, which will continue.
Or even better, don’t be lazy and curate your own interests.
My high school motto was “Faber Quisque Fortunae” (each man creates their own destiny). That means that You need to take responsibility for your own actions and decisions. You don’t outsource living.
Absolutely. That’s the preferred way. Be active and put in the effort.
Curating your own interests involves some aapect of information seeking. Llms can be used for that. It's not a case that anyone should trust ai to make a decision. It's that ai can help surface information to allow them to make a decision. The problem is too many people are letting the ai make a decision for them, or using it instead of other information that is better.
Most of the raw information has been deliberately obfuscated in with malicious ads.
If we were able to dismantle the toxic malicious web advertising apparatus, we wouldn’t need them. At all!
That's a problem that precedes llms. There used to be information online but it was normally informed. Since the social web, blogs, reviews, business reviews, Google reviews etc etc are packed so full of junk and nonsense that they are unhelpful.
The hope of the internet was to make information available to all. Spread ideas. Instead we as a species spread vapid half thoughts that drowns out the useful. LLMs are an extension of that and likely will make it much worse. But they can also be used to filter it.
The question is who decides which data is accurate and how do we verify that with these black boxes that are poorly understood by most of us.
Fuck I miss the time when I could just watch a movie and think "ooh that actress is hot", without having to consider their position on Israel or crypto.
Incredible. I chuckled at that first paragraph for being extreme satire. Then read the rest.
It's just not possible to outdo reality anymore.
Gal Gadot looks AI generated herself.
1 Join the cult or you'll be out of the game.
2 Get on the train to Guyana or you'll be out of the game.
3 Drink the kool aid or you'll be out of the game.
I think that if you take a train to Guyana, you must already be in Guyana
Now that I've invented the bank robbing robot, the bank robbing robot is inevitable...

I'm sure this is going to be a stunning masterpiece of cinematic art.
So will she still be singing the same tune when AI steals her likeness and voice and begins producing feature length films without her consent or approval, and pays $0 in royalties, and gives no acknowledgement in the credits?
It's like bragging that you were first aboard a train with blown-out tracks and taunting the people who refused to get on.
Yeah I'm fine with getting left behind. I won't watch AI garbage movies.
Is this photo of her AI or if not what is wrong with her face? I can't put my finger on it but its off, it gives me sound garden / black hole sun vibes and the heebeejeebees somehow
My take on all these people who defend AI with "it's here, get on board with it or get left behind" or "get used to it", etc. I've noticed a pattern. None of them actually use it as a tool. It's CEOs, it's "writers", "songwriters", "artists", etc. (please note the air quotes!).
The people who are defending the use, but shame anyone for calling out AI use or demanding disclosure (like Tim Sweeney), I see are looking to take as many shortcuts as possible, hoping to get rich, and don't want to admit it was any use of AI (because they want all the credit). They're trying to secretly outsource talent and profit from it.
She is an Israeli agent, wouldn't expect anything less from her. Of course she would consider lives and contributions of others too be less valuable.
Oh no she Gina Carranoed herself!
What a shame. How sad for such a proud IDF ambassador.
laughs forever
You're either going to work with it or be out of the game forever
Good. I hate the fucking game and its players.
She's welcome to her train because I'm reasonably confident that within 18 months it's going to have exploded.
She's certainly picked a hill to die on and I'm quite happy to indulge her.
She's one of those celebs that was basically foisted upon us by Hollywood producers and who regular people don't really like. She has the acting ability of a block of wood so she is doing anything she can to get attention and work.
I hope every set artist and lighting tech refuses to work with her in the future.
I'm glad she's doing it so it's one step closer for her acting career to be over.
She'll be joining Denise Richards career path soon.
Oh no, what did she do?
Think he's referencing OF
What did she do to her face?
K-AI El, no!
Do not make the train joke. Do not make the train joke. Do not make the train joke. Do not make the train joke. Do not make the train joke. Do not make the train joke. Do not make the train joke. Do not make the train joke...
