Love that answer, stealing it!

I believe this is an inspiration for a lot of early hip hop; they were the first band to use the Roland 808

Yellow Magic Orchestra and anyone associated with that group are of high quality, check them out for Japanese electronica

That’s only if the HR knew what they were talking about when crafting the listing. Not saying GOG will use AI for good, but we don’t know if the job will require something like ChatGPT or something in-house that isn’t like GPT.

You’re talking about the worst of AI, which I agree should be dismantled. There are many smaller projects that do not do the things you mentioned, and it’s possible to support those while shunning corporate AI.

AI is not a monolith; there are a lot of tools out there that you don’t hear about because all the focus is on the large, corporate models that are meant to dehumanize. LLMs like Gemini, Grok, and ChatGPT are awful inventions that should be dismantled, but smaller ML projects found on GitHub shouldn’t be lumped in, as the few that survive the bubble will stick around because they prove to be effective.

Hey I’m against corporate AI too, but when anyone can create a very basic ML program that runs locally with public domain data, eventually something both useful and ethical will emerge. It’s good to be skeptical, but you don’t have to be an AI bro to see that some specific tools might meet or exceed your standards.

I don’t like image or video generators, but the core tech is really useful for frame interpolation, a usecase that is not inherently controversial and badly needs improvement.

Sorry to not-x-it’s-y, but it’s not about forcing the big tool into your workflow, it’s about finding the 1001 little tools that work every time and collecting them. Or, wait for these tools to be consolidated.

If I seem naive, It’s cause I believe in reclaiming as much from tainted technology as possible.
