Here is the dream... I plug my brain into a fully immersive wolrd within an AI driven Marvel movie that lasts my entire life. The matrix may actually be awesome, so sign me up as a coppertop.

Let me suggest that you take a vacation from yourself.

The future of ai generated content and entertainment is going to be wild! How long before we have ~unlimited high quality entertainment? Before an AI can generate infinite episodes of your favorite show, podcast, comedian, and so on. Going to be an interesting thing to watch unfold.

Someone at Netflix is looking at this, rubbing their hands together with dollar signs in their eyes.

I have recently started ketamine treatment, and this describes the feeling. About 45 minutes as not myself is so relaxing.

Serious question: How far are we from AI being able to rewrite complete stories? The simplest example would be the same paragraphs with sentences with different structures. The most complex would be something like Gone with the Wind leading with The Wind Done Gone. (A book rewritten from another characters perspective even though that character was never mentioned in the former). I'm really fascinated by this idea fo…

Not a full story, but you can tell GPT-3 Instruct to "Rewrite the following the text in the style of X" and it does an interesting job.

Earlier quoted context omitted.

Well, I think that ideally, if you have AI-generated content, the AI would generate content that's tailored specifically for you. It would have a good model of what you're interested in, and would know how to create an intrigue that you specifically will find interesting.

It will be AI generated shopping channel dynamically generating products for you to buy on subscription. This one of the solutions to the Drake equation

This reminds me of Google's 'The Selfish Ledger' thought experiment video from a few years ago: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QDVVo14A_fo

A minor note is that OpenAI does specifically forbid generation of images of human faces from DALL-E 2: I wonder why that last image didn't hit the content filter.

Why is that?

probably porn and politics

Speaking of dreams, how many senses can dreams simulate? If dreams are the brain’s means of making sense of the world and entertaining us while it defragments, do we need more than those senses simulated to be fully mentally immersed in something that feels real? Will travel become the only trip for the nose and taste buds?

Don't want to be too critical, interesting experiment, but I found the story and pictures rather boring.

I think it shows that it is still a tool, and can be used creatively, or not, depending on the creative skill of the artist.

Contrast this with the now classic piece: https://arr.am/2020/07/31/human-intelligence-an-ai-op-ed/
