We salute you, Loretta.

M*A*S*H is a very good show, it's aged (a little too) well and the jokes still land to this day. Highly recommended.

Unless I'm misunderstanding it looks like they do work with rclone https://rclone.org/protondrive/

For anyone who hasn't seen this, it is an excellent documentary and well worth it even if DS9 isn't your favorite.

I'm not convinced that the group of people who are already skeptical of the veracity of the non-AI content they see on social media are going to suddenly start believing that short form videos are reflecting reality simply because an AI made it instead of a human. The current problem with misinformation isn't that it's "too poorly animated".

EDIT: I should say if and when CNN starts generating realistic AI videos claiming they are reality, then we have a problem. But anyone skeptical of randomdude69's Tweets is not going to start believing them "because AI".

I don't really get the concern. Anyone who cares about understanding reality isn't looking to social media for it, and the people who don't care about reality don't need AI to believe whatever nonsense is convenient for them.

Are we doomed? Yes, but AI isn't changing that.

Outside of computing costs, there is no limit to the length of video generated, but keeping the output coherent and contextual for more than a few seconds is a completely different puzzle to solve.

Same reason ChatGPT 3.0 could make realistic Reddit comments half a decade ago but the latest models still can't generate more than a paragraph or two before losing the thread.

This is the best thing I've read in weeks

I think what Optional is getting at is that "running an initial wide search then checking the specific sources" is not an improvement on the current system.
