tfw mimicking nature in digital systems and simulations helps to destroy the nature it's mimicking

Until we find better hardware, the nature of algorithms we can implement will be capped by that hardware. Intelligence is not an entirely software based problem, it goes much much deeper.

@e_salvaggio Pinball Hall of Fame is great pinballmuseum.org

Image/text to video experiment using the output of an image model that I trained on 3D scans of body parts as a style reference. Feeding custom model outputs into model inputs as feedback loops to create bodies struggling to resolve themselves within ML extraction and analysis🫠

@TinaRiversRyan @bodyfullofeyes Ooooo thank you! for some reason I didn't think of nora's work 🙃

@jnchmbrs @bodyfullofeyes

fav critics/writers about visual AI/ML? been thinking a lot about how it's connected to other non-visual AI/ML issues like surveillance, permission, agency, etc. Does the seductive output of these models gloss over issues of capitalist extraction and labor exploitation?

@e_salvaggio @bodyfullofeyes @logic_magazine @UpFromTheCracks @timnitGebru @danmcquillan @Abebab @ubiquity75 awesome, thanks!!
