My dad sent me a video of a composer trying out Suno and being all "my career is over!!" and at one point he was going "you'll be able to get in the car and go to the shops and it'll just generate a song about you getting in the car and going to the shops!!!" and I'm screaming WHO WANTS THAT THOUGH

@comutiny.bsky.social @jessthebp.bsky.social Kami, Jess, Jess, Kami. Kami, Jess is my friend who works in data science that I said I'd speak to. Jess, Kami is my friend who thinks he might like to work in data science. I've written both of your names too many times and they've ceased to have meaning

@gavtrdq.bsky.social just watching your video about TF the movie; watched it today and I also nearly burst into tears during Dare but more out of weird painful nostalgia and thinking about my kids who are the age I was when I first saw that movie. Put Kpop demon hunters into a new light for sure

Oh what's that? You're a successful entrepreneur who sold their first business at 21? You drive a Porsche and want for nothing? That's cool and all but I spent the day watching nu-metal concerts on a 14" CRT, so I think we know who the real rich man is

a lot freaks me out about AI but 0% of my anxiety is about AGI. i think this is the part that freaks me out the most right now -- the many many indications that no one is at the wheel and no adults are present

The last cookie formed from the dough is usually a little weird and misshapen and I do not respect it or find it endearing, it is the runt of the batch and I eat it first to get it out of my life
