We uploaded everything. Every song, every selfie, every secret. Now AI is remixing it all. It’s awesome. It’s awful. It’s the new creative frontier. Watch the full episode of INFINITE REMIX below.

@lauriewired Well said, Laurie. Hi!

This session is free! Register below. everythingisaremix.info/make-work-that…

Join me tomorrow for the Make Work That Matters workshop! In this one-hour Zoom session, we'll explore how to create work that makes an impact. By the end of the session, you'll leave with fresh energy and a clearer sense of how to make work that matters.

@emzanotti Slow clap for you, Emily.

Maybe what it’s actually time to do, in the battle of good against evil, is dismantle the Rage Economy — the one where we pay greedy but unimpressive people to keep us in a perpetual state of anger they pretend is righteous but really just lines their own pockets.

@notjessewalker This is the most radical thing I've ever heard said on Fox.

I hate to say "dystopian," because it's such an overused word these days, but the full clip really does come across like a dystopian sci-fi scenario: Offer institutional "help," and exterminate the people who won't accept it.

@themaxburns Insightful thread, thank you Max.

A Gen Z colleague described the "blackpill mindset" to me in a way I'd never heard before: For younger kids today, especially men, there's a pressure to either "get rich at any cost" or "get famous at any cost." They use irony and crude memes to mask the deep anxiety they feel.

@ChrisKolaYT @andysignore It's this.

Um that Trump speech was AI... His pinky DISSAPPEARS! I don't care if it was just an edit- Trump sued 60 Minutes for MILLIONS over just an edit! Now they can just use AI when they want!? Can you imagine if President Biden got caught using AI to edit a speech!? This is outrageous

@adamscochran He will get caught. There are people who know who that is. It took five days to catch Luigi Mangione.

If this footage is indeed accurate (and it looks to match the FBI’s person of interest) then he smuggled the gun onto the roof top in the leg of his pants… Limping on the way there, but not after dumping the fire arm. Truly insane how they haven’t caught this guy!

This platform is pure insanity right now. Almost everything that’s getting millions of views is either sheer hatred or a crazy conspiracy theory.

@RobertSkvarla It’s the morph edit in Premiere. Definitely.

Weird moment at 19 seconds in. I feel like I'm losing my mind.

@joshuarolson That’s the morph edit in Premiere. It’s an edit.

In case you were puzzled by why Trump looked so hale and hearty in the Kirk video and so stroked out in the 9/11 video...

@dnlklr @trouble_man90 Yes it’s this.

tree shadows shift from 17 sec> 21 sec... my guess is they just cut out a part and warp transitioned

It should be a major deal that the White House posted an AI video of trump’s Oval Office speech. How much of it was AI? All of it?? Was he even in the room?

@Shayan86 You’re in the wrong biz, Shayan!

Going viral online has never been easier. Just post the most outlanidsh, fringe and partisan take about a major news story, regardless of how baseless it might be, and social media will reward you. This post, which has racked up 17 million views, is a case in point.

@DanAndDanFilms It rarely works well.

@remixeverything That pesky morph cut, many a time have I played with fire & got burned by it

Some people claim this Trump statement is AI, but this is likely the morph cut feature in Premiere, which blends together an edit. My guess is they're trying to hide the large bruise on his right hand. That left hand basically doesn't budge the rest of the video.

@pmddomingos Liberal here. What’s overwhelming being said is that this murder is disgusting, scary and horribly sad.

When a progressive gets shot, it’s a far-right MAGA maniac. When a conservative gets shot, it’s just a person with mental health problems and proof that we need more gun control.

@BrandyZadrozny That was my instant take too. Nobody says no to that. That that’s his retelling is further demonstration guy is an idiot.

Also I'm not saying this didn't happen but it sure doesn't sound like a real conversation.

Wildest bits for me from Kennedy's explosive hearing today. msnbc.com/msnbc/news/rfk…

@thedorbrothers @clownworld @GoogleDeepMind @Rainmaker1973 @techhalla @minchoi @ElunaAI @AutismCapital @Totemko @dreamingtulpa @ianmiles Really great work guys. Side note: I'm going to go out on a limb and say AI actors are basically not going to be a thing. My guess is they'll be used for pre-production but not finished work (except for special effects, fixes and such).

The AI commercial game just leveled up. Permanently. Google dropped Nano Banana, and it changed everything. If you’re a brand or agency still “watching where AI goes”… It just went here: Check out our Heineken spec ad - “Enjoy Both Sides.” Same actors. Same locations. Same beers. Finally, consistency has been solved. But at the end of the day, tools don’t make good ads. People do.
