What they know is most people won't notice and even fewer will care. This is really how AI will spread--slowly degrading the quality of everything
Josh Billinson@jbillinson
A lot of reasons why SNL using AI for stuff like this sucks, but my main gripe is just that it’s less funny! The intentionally kind of janky photoshops are part of the joke and beat the weird smooth AI aesthetic.

"women are better at multitasking" is a myth ppl use to dump more responsibilities on women.
humans dont multitask. the brain just rapidly jumps between tasks, & every switch has a cost (slower speed/more mistakes). no studies show womens brains do this more efficiently than mens
Nana@mantapanjir
@purebprince lebih ke sense nya ga aja sih, perempuan bisa multitasking disatu waktu dan telaten ngurusin hal2 begitu. beda sama laki yang brantakan wkwkwkw

남자들한테는 의자 열 개씩 주면서 여자들한테는 의자 한 개만 줘놓고 그 의자 하나를 가지고 여자끼리 싸우게 만드는 가부장제 사회의 분할통치전략. 의자에 앉아 있는 여자를 욕하면서 다른 여자한테 양보하라고 하는 건 해결책이 못됨. 여자 쪽 의자를 늘리거나 남자 쪽 의자를 뺐어오는 게 맞음.

자신의 성공에 싫증을 느끼는 사람들에 대해 농담하는 테일러 스위프트 "다른 사람한테 기회 좀 줘! 네가 얼마나 잘했는지 얘기 좀 하게 잠깐만 비켜주면 안 돼? 라는 말들을 많이 봤어요. 근데 솔직히… 그러고 싶지 않아요! (I don't want to!)" 솔직히 남성 아티스트한테는 성공할만큼 했으니 좀 양보해라는 말... 안하잖아요?

We used to call this transmedia planning (shout out to Henry Jenkins and MIT Media Lab). When I worked on HBO we’d activate more than a dozen supplemental niche touch points for some campaigns to supplement the main media buy and PR push. Didn’t matter if these elements didn’t scale. It was all in service of the narrative promoting the premiere. Gave super fans a treasure hunt spread across the entire internet. We had a True Blood audio upload on a random platform that got ~1000 unique streamers (same day we did a $200K IGN roadblock). Those 1000 true fans mattered just as much as the 1M impressions we got on the HPTO. This was before everyone got obsessed with performance metrics. Before algorithmic feeds. Media planning was storytelling and craft. The most special fan service things didn’t scale bc that wasn’t the point.

The film “Morocco”, released in 1930, four years before the code, featured a lesbian kiss and earned four Oscar nominations.
Don’t believe this revisionism. The Code set back American cinema by decades.
BGR ✨@BadGuyRants
@Darren_Mooney The Hays Code forced directors to be clever with what they were getting on screen & forcing audiences to understand subtext. Society was much more conservative back then, so even if the code wasn’t enforced it wouldn’t have been all that different.

Netflix co-CEO Ted Sarandos says BARBIE and OPPENHEIMER would have been just as big on Netflix. “There’s no reason to believe that the movie itself is better in any size of screen for all people. My son’s an editor, he watched ‘Lawrence of Arabia’ on his phone.” via @nytimes

Netflix is phrasing it like it's a done deal - but confirmation/approval doesn't happen until end of 2026 or early 2027.
This is called "manufacturing consent". They want to avoid giving people a chance to process this, and they're pushing a narrative that everything is fine and it's already done. It is not.
My knee jerk reaction is that this is a "bad thing". My deeper thought is that it's worse than we can imagine.

The other important key to the success of KPop Demon Hunters - it's just plain a great movie, let's be clear - is that it's FOR the youth of today. It's fresh new IP they can call their own. It's not warmed up leftovers from their dad's generation. Hollywood needs to catch up.
John Squires 🎃@FreddyInSpace
It feels like Hollywood is struggling to connect with The Youth these days, and along comes KPop Demon Hunters to make it look effortless. Something NEW, something DIFFERENT, that understands what they're into, what they're feeling, and most importantly, what they need to hear.

Kalshi is a prediction market. Their vision is to literally apply sports betting to everything, remaking the world and our lives into a casino of speculation. This is a fundamentally dehumanizing and degenerate view of society. It must be stopped at all costs.
New Left EViews@NewLeftEViews
Tarek Mansour, CEO of Kalshi, recently stated that “the long-term vision is to financialize everything and create a tradable asset out of any difference in opinion.” People involved in such things should be dispossessed and ostracised, not celebrated as progressive icons.

It's never actually dynamic, though, is it? Prices are static until they can ratchet them upward for successful shows. It's just gouging.

Dynamic pricing is one of the most exciting areas for future investment in theatre and will help "reach diverse audiences and reduce costs", new research from the @NationalTheatre claims. Read more 👉 thestage.co.uk/news/national-…

So Samantha wrote a shitty essay, got a shitty grade, and while waiting on the formal appeals process just innocently decided to publicize her case to Turning Point? Almost sounds like Samantha was on a mission from the outset to incite a mob against her trans professor.

Very curious to me that every AI actor is a young woman and no one ever bothers to make anything else. I wonder why our society is so obsessed with imagining and controlling young women, while also stealing their labor and returning those roles to men

Albums stick when you actually give them a chance. Yall listen to an album one time, skipping though it, & decide it’s trash. Music has to be sat with.
Also. Some of yall won’t grow with artists. Your brain goes to “is this better than ___?” before you even digest the music.

Albums don’t stick no more at all… we use to be stuck on albums for months… years lol

universities that pay sports coaches as much as $8 million yearly salary should be utterly ashamed to exploit adjunct faculty, who often have advanced degrees, & should provide medical benefits for them identical with tenured faculty.
Σrglyph@Erglyph
@JoyceCarolOates As someone who has taught adjunct multiple times for peanuts, yes! get rid of the administrators and hire some darn full time faculty.

people think feminism is the culmination of cultural attitudes by (presumably) girls/women found in comment sections at any given time… feminism is a radical… political… action movement for justice… feminism is why you have rights and dignity, it’s not “things girls think”
