if this isnt scary idk what is

This video was generated entirely by AI.

It was generated by OpenAI’s new text-to-video model called Sora. It’s currently only being tested by a small group of experts and creators.

I don’t know how other’s feel about this, but I find this kinda terrifying. A lot of the videos that they’ve shown off so far are already very convincing, and I can already imagine the kind of misinformation that will be created with this tool. Even if OpenAI can keep the lid on it with Sora, the fact that they have pulled something like this off probably means we’ll see others turning up soon. I wouldn’t be shocked to see an open sourced equivalent for this, like Stable Diffusion.

I know we can’t put the genie back in the bottle now, but I do really worry about the future when the tech is getting this good this quick. This feels like the end of the information age, because we might be soon be unable to tell what info is real and what is fake.

You can see more examples from Sora here: https://openai.com/sora

eating while wearing active noise cancelling headphones is weird, because of the change in pressure every time you chew, you can hear everyone around you for the duration you chew and then goes back to silence

a bit hard to pronounce but okay i guess

welcome dertermenternerdert to wasteof! (quite a mouthful eh?)

dertermenter @dertermenter

After much consideration, I have rebranded and changed my username.

This is an absolute huge moment for me and I hope you appreciate and respect my change, I feel this adds more class and meaning to my username, with the use of repetition further forwarding the word “dert” as being the key to my username. Furthermore, it incorperates the word “nerd”, which implies 1. I’m a nerd and 2. I like the nerd emoji, and they are true.

Hope you like this change just as much as I do!

i mean alrighttt edge is fine and is filled with features + is Chromium based

but the fact that it promotes itself so much and MS forcing you to use it is kinda horrible

on windows you’re anyways getting spied by MS so Edge is fine, same goes for macOS and Safari but yk at least try to reduce that by using an open source browser like Firefox 😎

dertermenter @dertermenter

Hot take: Microsoft edge as a browser with google as the search engine is the best setup.

pretty sad Daft Punk cited ‘AI’ as a reason for their disbandment 😔

He [Thomas Bangalter] noted that he would eschew his robotic persona, citing concerns in AI and technological developments: "As much as I love this character, the last thing I would want to be, in the world we live in, in 2023, is a robot."

fr tho

iOS is too locked down, most Android distros are filled with Google/OEM tracking and bloat

and installing something like lineageos on a modern android is not as easy as installing linux on a pc

jeff @jeff

i wish there was an actually good mobile os
