It's not just this. Most of his movies talk about the damage humans have done to the earth. Using AI even after knowing the environmental impact of it to make soulless versions of his style is just disgusting imo.

ChatGPT is literally accelerating climate change and water scarcity there is nothing that serious you need it for that you couldn’t come up with or ask a regular search engine
The fact that the masses thinks all ChatGPT can do is help you plan vacations and make todo list makes me feel like I’m in a bubble. I’m literally watching people get rich off of it by building things.

This is always what it was going to be used for btw. It’s not some great equalizer. It’s a way for already massively wealthy execs to add a few more mil to their annual bonuses by cutting creative teams entirely & having a machine vomit up the most boring slop imaginable instead

It really does not bode well for our society that politicians and corporations keep trying to destroy both entire repositories of knowledge and culture and our access to them while also championing AI tools that consistently plagiarize and provide incorrect information

I still can't get over how bad AI has become. And this is coming from a computer scientist who spent over a decade studying and programming AI. I fucking LOVE AI, but here are 10 reasons I absolutely fucking hate it now, a 🧵 ...

Latin has no exact word for 'yes' but some phrases give the same effect, like 'ita vero'. One of my students translated it as 'so true' today and I can't stop imagining all the Romans now saying "so true bestie" all the time

The Venetian Carnival started yesterday with the Pantegana Regatta, the Parade of the Sewer Rat, on the Canal Grande. The procession is led by a boat in the shape of a rat.

I wonder if my medieval ancestors would be surprised to learn that, hundreds of years later, the main activities in my life are still "try not to die in the Great Plague" and "watch people argue about the legitimacy of the current Pope"

Blocking people from using highways due to suspicion of seeking abortion care. If you think they won’t use this and extend it to profile people of color and LGBTQ+ people, you’re wrong. This isn’t even close to the end of their assaults. Pay attention. Get involved locally.
