Recursive self-improvement is cool and all but have you tried recursive self-involvement?

You’re not posting too much you’re fighting AI slop on behalf of your species

Waits for AI to make marketing agencies irrelevant. (Busier than I've been in 11 years, i.e. ever)

Guys, nothing’s going to ‘break the Internet’

Everything about this is magnificent
All this talk about AGI destroying moats and everything made me want to ship again One of the conclusions from all of you was, if you can use AI to ship faster and better, you should just ship way more complex things, like things you could not imagine making before For me personally I'd never imagine making Adobe Premiere, Final Cut Pro or Capcut but on the web, it'd simply be too difficult for me, where do I even start? So today I just tried and vibecoded them into Photo AI! A fully functional video editor but the cool twist is this one can actually generate videos with you or your trained models in it directly in your video editor I'm personally less interested in the AI influencers etc, but more fun to make actual kinda cinematic short films with yourself and other people in it, so I made this Likeness in video models is now good enough so that gives lots of cool opportunities, but most AI platforms just let you generate 10 second clips but then you're stuck with that and have to put it together yourself in Final Cut Pro So now you can just [ Send to video editor ] inside Photo AI and you end up here And the next thing I'll add is the AI Agent sidebar I have in Photo AI's main app too, which lets an agent take control of the interface. In this case you'll be able to say "make a short film of me in Bangkok", it'll ask you some questions, then write a script of prompts, which are then generated as videos with you or other people as the actors in it and automatically edited into a short film on your time Then you can right click on any video you don't like (some videos just suck or have bad resemblance to you, shit happens), and click [ Regenerate], adjust the prompt a bit and the new video will show up in the same place on your video timeline In this case I did try to make a short film of me arriving in Bangkok as a digital nomad the first time and being dazed, lost and disillusioned as I am on the other side of the world 🤯 Featuring Lorn's song "The Slow Blade"

This is spectacular, and necessary. ‘ There's a texture and a weight to lived experience that completely vanishes the second your attention leaves.’

“Bali is too expensive now” Can’t speak for the quality, but this is on Jl. Legian smack in the middle of Seminyak.

Bali April/May the dry season kicks in, till ~October it’s such a nice time of year. Days are still hot but by 5 PM it’s way cooler less humid than rainy season with a nice offshore breeze. Nice clean air too, well unless you’re in certain parts of Canggu.
