This is DPER. This is literally DPER. Chamber's own department: Public Expenditure and Reform. Unless, it's DOGE. It's a ha'penny DOGE, isn't it? Because whoever is whispering into the minister's ear doesn't know what a DPER is, but is all like, "What Ireland needs is a DOGE, bro."

I have been duped into listening to AI "music" twice by Youtube and I immediately knew it was AI because of how dogshit it was in every way. Every component was truly abysmal. Zero clarity. My music isn't rhe beat produced but you can at least hear each instrument and what's going on.

Ffs, Slipknot touring with Marilyn Manson, Serj Tankian collaborating with Falling in Reverse, Metallica bringing Limp Bizkit on tour, Metal as a scene is fucked. At least the biggest bands are making it seem that way. Support your local scenes full of good people and great bands.

My mate got divorced last year and went full midlife crisis, formed a band and self funded an album. It's bloody awful, he can't sing and plays guitar like he's trying to saw it in half. But I tell him it's great and I go to all his gigs, cos he's my pal and I love him.

GDT's reddit AMA spitting fire www.reddit.com/r/movies/com...

reddit comment:

Hello! Did you intend the ending of Pan’s labyrinth to be real or in Ofelia’s mind?

Guillermo Del Toro's reply:

My interpretation, and it's exclusively mine, is that it's real.

Because there's two things. One is what people call “The Shining Question.” The Shining Question is, Who opens the door for Jack to get out of the fridge? And Ofelia is in an attic with a guard outside her door, and she draws the door with the magic chalk, and she shows up in the labyrinth. So, the only way she could have gone into the labyrinth is the magic chalk. And the flower is real at the end. The flower that blooms in the dead tree. And the reason I think it’s real is because—and this is why I'm in favor of the human factor in art—I think that art does transform the world. You know?

Think about it for a second. One of the goals, with all this movement, is to make you believe that art is vulgar. That art is nothing special, and anybody can do art. That is like me telling you that I'm faster at running than Usain Bolt but I “run” in my motorcycle. Well, that's not the same. That’s not the same at all.

Art is important, and they want you to believe it isn't. It's part of the idea of control. The goal is not to have artificial intelligence. The goal is to foster natural stupidity. The goal is to foster you not looking for answers, and to trust yourself entirely to an engine. Look at the way we are dipping our toes into these things. We are starting to ask the machine, Is this true? For now, there's a correlation between reality and what the answers of the machine are. For now. But soon, we won't even investigate further. We will be told it's true. And if the machine is in the hands of somebody who should not be trusted, then your reality has been completely and utterly fucked. Because your intelligence ends at the question. You don't seek the answer. It's given to you.

Q: You recently mentioned that AI creates 'semi-compelling screensavers' and that you'd 'rather die' than use it. As a filmmaker who relies heavily on practical effects and creature design, what do you think is the biggest thing lost when a computer generates an image instead of a human hand?

GDT:

The three quarters of the process that gave you the chance to think of the idea that people don't think about without that process. Meaning, AI can get you to the middle really fast, but there's a dialectic with the process that gets you to that top 10%. I'll give you an example with the Pale Man.

We sculpted it as an old man, with a face. And then I said, Let's take out the face. This happened because I saw a photo of a manta ray and the poster for Don Coscarelli’s Phantasm. That combination, which happened at two different times during a week or a month, are not permutations that are chemically part of an equation. They are alchemy. And then I said, Take out the face, and then I said, Let's put the eyes on the hands. This triangulation happens because I spent a month or two months living with the idea of this creature. And it's not linear.

AI is like a super-fast engine that makes semi-sentient permutations of things that are already done. Creation is things that have never been done. Coming to exist.

And the second thing is the loss of the apprenticeship that one has as an artist. You're never a master; you're always an apprentice. This is a kinship I have with, for example, Chris Nolan. When he showed me The Odyssey, there’s a scene when Matt Damon is floating in the stormy ocean and I asked him—because we were talking about practical effects, and how great it is and that we both always use a maquette or a model—and I asked him, How did you do it? He said, “We put him in a storm in the ocean.”

And you're gonna find that 30% of a great image occurs accidentally. You know, either a drop of water hits the lens, or the camera shakes. I remember when in 1993, '94, Jim…

Love, Death + Robots is so damn good. They're not all winners, but the pool of poor episodes is so small that it doesn't diminish the artistry and storytelling of the rest of the show. And then there are some standouts, some like a black mirror episode, some simple but brilliant. Like this one.

The first piece of art I commissioned put me off commissioning anything for years because of the experience. Took literal years to deliver and, when it did, didn't meet expectations. It was one and done and there was no further communication on the matter on their end when I pointed things out.
