Script to Movie AI v0.9 alpha is Here… Thesis, Proven
SYNOPSIS: In 2022, “AI Art” was all the rage — pretty pictures and paintings and “virtual photographs” created in an instant by generative AI agents, guided by nothing more than tweet-length text prompts (mostly) written by humans. In 2023, we expect an even bigger wave to hit the internets: AI Movies, or generative video… aka…

Genuine Creativity exhibited from AI art automatons : The Case for acknowledging the “Spark”

Computational Neuroscience 3000? AYFKM?
There’s a new sheriff in town, kids. Justs the other day, I learned of a new field of study, replete with PhD candidates and its own scholarly journal: Its called… wait for it: “computational neuroscience for AI minds.” The article was detailing the bizarre near-total opacity of the AI brain and how scientists were working…
