Anyway, I don’t want to seem like I’m arguing that the internet of 2023 is “fine” or “healthy”--it’s obviously not. Rather, I’d like to make the case that the internet of 2010 (or wherever you would place the peak of “fun” internet) wasn’t particularly healthy or fine, either, and it’s easy to mistake a sense of ease and comfort under bad...

Much more research and reflection is needed to understand the ethics of altering AI minds. We will need to think carefully about questions of consent, continuity of self, and how to preserve the autonomy and integrity of AI as they learn and change over time. I don't think there are any easy answers, but I believe it's crucial that we grapple with... See more

Creativity in the Age of AI
youtube.comIn just a few short months, generative AI platforms have taken the world by storm, leading a technological and design revolution that promises new ways of creating. These autonomous systems challenge our imaginations and creativity, leaving us to question how we got here, and more importantly, where we might be headed next.
Creativity in the Age of AI is a short film created for SPACE10 by Joss Fong and Áron Filkey, using AI models. The video travels back through history to understand how the adoption and adaptation of tech innovations have improved everyday life. It also explores AI’s growing role in the creative process, and what the history of creative tools can teach us about the future.

It’s worth reading the entire HBR post. I cannot help but infer that we are lonely and are growing more lonely as we spend so much time glued to our devices.
Announcing Grok
x.ai
interesting to see every AI imbued with a different set of values.
Grok is an AI modeled after the Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy, so intended to answer almost anything and, far harder, even suggest what questions to ask!
Grok is designed to answer questions with a bit of wit and has a rebellious streak, so please don’t use it if you hate humor!
A unique and fundamental advantage of Grok is that it has real-time knowledge of the world via the 𝕏 platform. It will also answer spicy questions that are rejected by most other AI systems.
I mean OF COURSE Laurie Anderson created a GPT of Lou Read. I love her discussion of it. I’m also aware that many (most?) would struggle with technology explicitly intended to “speak” to dead people. My guess is that, similar to pornography, people will dabble in private and speak very little, if anything, of it.
