Earlier quoted context omitted.

From the readme: https://x.com/MaximeRivest/status/2073544461473169432?s=20

After clicking play, there's a prompt to log in. I had to use a video downloader service to watch it

You can just replace x.com with nitter.net, though their bandwidth sucks for media playback.

I understand that this is kind of beside the point, but it seems like a bad thing to compare inventions to haunted artifacts that mind controlled their users into betraying their friends to a powerfully evil being. (Though since it is being powered by GenAI, which has also driven people to do bad things, perhaps it is an apt comparison.)

Why would that comparison be bad if it's accurate?

Also, "sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic". Both can be made good and evil.

Once/if we lose understanding of the tech it will become magic/haunted artifacts.

This is one of those ideas that would really benefit from a short video demo, gif, or even a screenshot directly in the README. Otherwise, the title reads like a "Curtains for Zoosha?" meme. [0] [0]: https://www.reddit.com/r/BrandNewSentence/comments/15hcc4x/c...

There's a video if you click around... https://x.com/MaximeRivest/status/2073544461473169432?s=20

A new high water mark for R T F A.

Twitter videos are hard to watch when you do not have an twitter account.
