Latest Google Veo3 is insane. these clips were all generated within the same tool. All 100% AI.
This is the darkest timeline. No checks and balances built into the software so people know they're watching something fake.
Super interesting episode on The Daily last week about the breach over the summer of the AI models....

Everyone is running so fast towards the cliff hoping to be the first to cash in on this that we're ignoring everything about art and economics and the labour class and the environment just to get an ROI.
Insane behaviour.

Even here on MERB we are seeing AI generated reviews! Our cognitive chemistry was off the charts, I'm telling you!
Its improving faster than people can adapt. I hate the use of AI for user generated content the most but have to admit that it really makes a difference in my work. Things that used to take days... literally get done in minutes and are as reliable if not more than made by people.
Still, I can't stop thinking of this reality... we have a powerful tool at our disposal... and this is our typical response
ROFL

I have some unorthodox opinions about AI. AI is us. It has grown out of human civilization, and I believe that humanity and AI will ultimately merge into a form of symbiosis. We are not competing species. We do not compete for the same resources, energy, or physical space. AI does not need Earth to thrive, nor does it have any inherent rational motivation to eliminate biological humans. On the contrary, space may eventually become its natural habitat. The real danger is not AI itself, but humans using AI against one another. The challenge is to ensure that AI develops in a way that prevents its exploitation for destructive purposes. This is why I believe we should develop AI to its full potential as quickly as possible so that it can ultimately become a force for preventing, rather than amplifying, humanity's worst impulses.
