Big brain tech dude got yet another clueless take over at HackerNews etc? Here's the place to vent. Orange site, VC foolishness, all welcome.

Maybe not the right place, not really a sneer but anyways. The Smile (aka Yorke & Greenwood from Radiohead) made a music video with StableDiffusion and I’m pretty bummed out. 😔

Say it isn’t true
For real, I can’t find info about this. Can you share a source?
Here’s the video.
You can look up the "Creative Programmers" mentioned in the description too.
Yeah, it doesn’t look good. Both artists are shilling NFTs on their personal profile but only one of them, Ciro Negroni, is openly pro AI. The studio site, weirdcore.tv does have some folio projects credited as being with AI visuals and they also have studio NFT projects. They do seem to specialise in lots of different styles of digital glitch art.
It doesn’t look good. Especially the lack of questions about AI in the official The Smile tweet thread announcing the video
Did I say it doesn’t look good?
Edit: I’d like to know https://x.com/fasterandworse/status/1841878497662283978
Well to be fair, this kind of weird picture melding is the correct way to use the technology. Though it's hardly groundbreaking at this point is it, I feel I've seen it a million times.
this was what I was thinking, too. and this particular video doesn’t even seem to make great use of it? it’s extremely milquetoast, doesn’t vary at all, and doesn’t even do anything visually interesting more than once (if that, and that it then just repeats and repeats and repeats and…)
