You could even select a director, so if you choose Alfred Hitchcock or Terence Malick, is filmed with that quality and feel, so it looks like one of his movies. 2) You feed a algorithm with all the information available about your deceased husband. The algorithm generate video diaries, with references to current news, with the likelihood of your dead husband, look & feel.

Is a old concern of hollywood that technology may one day make their whole business model moot point. Is not new at all, I remember reading novels with that has argument from the 60 and 70's. I don't think is going to happen... that way. What can happen is that we start mixing reality with fiction a lot more with enhanced reality technologies. Is going to be much more complicate than simply procedurally generating movies. Tei fucked around with this message at 17:17 on Oct 30, 2017 |

Not only beer and bread, the staples of civilization, but also most of our sudafed now, and modified yeast will produce far more pharmaceuticals. But we've seen what fungi can do to insects and fish. What if they only gave us bread and beer because it makes us slavishly breed more yeast? Come to the city nomad. Come to the city and reproduce.

It's not that. Actual legitimate good children's show have violence and adult themes too. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NljxtaJv-68 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=86Q2d_Gs1GE https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FrlymHW0qU8 It's not the content itself that is disturbing, it's the weird unsettling inhuman feeling those videos have that are so creepy. Like a baby saying "no papa" a bunch of times then vomiting potato chips all over the ground. Or weird gifs of babies smileing as they get duct taped to a wall. Or a ghost story about a refrigerator that watches tv and has to pause the tv when it goes to the bathroom. Owlofcreamcheese fucked around with this message at 14:36 on Nov 7, 2017 |

It's like poems with rhymes that technically do rhyme but aren't things any english speaker would ever write combined with like exhaustive recombinations of really weird elements. Like needles that inject blue into a ball then a needle injects blue into a baby then a needle injects blue into a hammer then a ball puts blue into a needle then a ball puts blue into a hammer then a hammer knocks blue into a baby, etc until they have gone through every combination. And even the color choices don't seem right, like the undue weight on teaching cyan as a color.

Guavanaut posted:Cyan should be taught more. Like when kids are taught the seven classical colors of the visible spectrum, red orange yellow green blue indigo violet, there's confusion because we often think of unqualified 'blue' as something like X11 blue, rather than the sky blue/cyan area that Newton was thinking of. Which leads to confusion like 'do we really need blue, indigo, and violet? I don't see a color between the blue bit and the purple bit.' Which is because the blue bit is what Newton called indigo and the cyan bit they completely ignored was called blue. The rainbow has 7 colors to praise god, it's the same reason we have seven seas and seven continents and seven notes and like basically anything that is an infinite spectrum we decided there is "seven" of them.

And starting very soon, the company plans to invite regular people for rides in these fully self-driving vehicles. Cicero fucked around with this message at 17:28 on Nov 7, 2017 |

On the topic of creepy videos, I don't agree with the author dismissing without hesitation human supervision. I bet a dozen curators working full time would make a difference. You don't need to ban 100% of creepy videos, you just need to ban and keep banning enough of them to make it unprofitable for producers. Or to make them raise the quality / reduce the creepiness of their work. A dozen wouldn't do? Then hire more and don't try telling us that you can't afford them. It seems that we've yielded to algorithms and Big Software without a fight. Imagine if a TV station was producing stuff like that - they'd be shut down in a day. But since it's Youtube and it's a battle of their algorithms against other algorithms then we are made to believe that we are powerless.
