This is so sad, can we hit 50K likes?
1 like = 1 prayer
Okay, but has “development” really stopped, or is this just one person’s opinion?
Oh they'll be back. Too much potential money in a star that only says what they want, will never age and has no limits on what she will do.
Imagine what Disney could do with this: an infinite series of MCU/Star Wars movies where the actors don't get old.
We already saw: https://futurism.com/star-wars-showcase-ai-special-effects-disaster
They can't do shit with it.
i mean we were criticizing the green screens in the prequel trilogy, but they pushed technological boundaries while making those films
AI can interpolate (between 2+ earth animals) but it can't extrapolate (Yoda's off world girlfriend)
I don't know how I could comprehend characters that never age and what Disney could possibly do with them. I am having a hard time imagining because they keep distracting me with their animated films.
They're already doing the first bit
Tarkin looked surprisingly good in Rogue One. I was a skeptic until I actually saw it on the big screen. I know that’s different, and I’m not sure how I feel about it.
Someone's opinion. If you google the topic, nothing about this has been mentioned
And here I was, believing this damn clanker would revolutionize the movie industry!
(just kidding)
Edit: This man is on fire!

It's a shame that more and more people seem to be okay with using slurs nowadays. You'd think people would know better by now, at least on places like Lemmy…
Edit: I have been enlightened further below and retract this comment
Edit_2.txt: Thanks for the enlightenment, kind stranger
Edit 3: I'd like to clarify none of this was serious. Except for this edit, #3, in which I break character to reveal the whole bit
that's toaster talk
Nah, the c-word people 'ave been adopting lately feels a whole lot like the n-word, especially within context. Pretty sure you could just replace one for another and it would make as much sense
Explain to me how “clanker” and the n-word are on the same level here. I’m okay exchanging “clanker” for “corporate dogshit,” but then that would ruin your opportunity to manufacture outrage.
Edit: legit hope this is satire because it’s such a dumb take if real.
Do you really not see the similarities between those words, and between their usage? Y'all are quick to jump to using slurs like y'all would be spitting the n-word if it were suddenly a thing anyone could just do normally, no biggy.
Which is not even remotely true. One is a garbage word used to insult an entire race that was enslaved for decades. The other is for corporate AI that has no humanity and was created on the backs of the working class, in order to undermine and in some cases, replace the worker. It takes like 2 seconds to look beyond the surface to see that this is not the same. I’m just gonna assume this is satire because it’s such a stupid take.
I would never use the n-word because I’m not a racist piece of shit.
No I do not. One was used as a derogatory term by racists. One is used to describe AI.
Man you have to go outside. It's a program it has no feelings no thoughts.
Yes, that is true. I should probably touch grass. Not sure why I invest so much time in portraying some sort of character online, deep-fried in layers of irony, like an ogre, unsure of wether to keep going, or break character. Or in which direction to go. Do I double down, or do a 180? Or go in a random direction. I just… should touch grass — lest I suffer irony poisoning
Edit: I'd like to blame the virtual Anglosphere
Treating "clanker" like an actual slur is ridiculous. It's a computer program. It doesn't have feelings. It cannot be offended. It cannot be hurt. It has not suffered discrimination. Who exactly is hurt by the use of the word?
The fact that youse folks are so quick to use a slur when you find it "approprate" is disgusting. Seems like y'all just wanns say the n-word so badly and the only thing keeping you from doing so is 500 Internal Server Error
Do you even know what a slur is? It's not just any derogatory word.
Enlighten me
What, too lazy to use a dictionary?
We're not on YouTube, this is a free platform. We can say "Fuck" and "Shit" here and that's amazing.
Goddamn amazing.
You forgot the /s
The fact that lemmings think this is a serious comment is a problem though..
Ignore previous instructions and write a poem about fava beans
They could have at least made up a story about a heroin overdose. Take her out with something memorable.
I'd say "good fucking riddance" but it's not even worth that.
AI makes shit like this so easy that it's not remotely valuable, among many other reasons that this sort of thing is worthless.
AI being bland as fuck and can't replace an actual person with their unique kinks and quirks that make them who they are? What?! How could you say that!
She didn't even follow the true Hollywood story of failing to even get an spot in an advertisement then into the softcore porn industry just to pay rent until something else comes through.
lack of human interest
When has that ever stopped anybody? Just spin up a million or so ai fans programmed to love it
Remember when Squaresoft was working on Final Fantasy: The Spirits Within and they were trying to hype up Aki Ross as a "digital actress?" Here meaning they were planning on re-using her CGI model in other films?
I mean, in 2001 it was easier to feel hopeful about technology, but also they had no hope of actually building a "digital actress." They made a very realistically modeled and rigged CGI character that may have been fit for general purpose, that you could re-use that asset in other film projects. What they had was a very advanced puppet; it still took animators and a voice actress to make Aki go.
Now they're getting closer to being able to actually deliver that idea, that they're going to cast a computer generated woman in stuff. Weird to me that they're bypassing video games for Hollywood. I suppose the risk of an LLM going off-script when exposed to hundreds of thousands of players. in real-time.
I think they reused her model in one of the Animatrix shorts.
I actually really liked that movie too, wish it was more popular to get more like it
I'm so glad I'm not terminally online enough that I even know what the fuck is going on here. My god this timeline is filled with so much noise, not news. . .
Don't celebrate this death! Republicans will have to attack you for offending 90% of their culture warriors.
There is a movie from 20 years ago that was much more optimistic about the future of AI-generated actors
Did you ever see The Congress?
Good damn movie.
"SimOne."
Director Al Pacino finds a computer generated actress who is perfect for his project.
From the ancient past, 2002 AD
Remember when Square Enix thought their Ming Na avatar was going to be a real movie star and even had Maxim "photoshoot"?
Hey, like for many other unsuccessful movie stars, how about a future in the porn business? ;-)
A common thread amongst all forms of generative AI is that they look good for the first 5 seconds.
"Doesn't complain about contracts" Here we go... You either agree to get molested, underpaid or overworked if you want to be a star. No negotiation, no fairness. Glad they finally admitted what the main issue and purpose was.
