Art is subjective, but this isn't really art, it's just AI slop. It’s incredible to me that this is what OpenAI thinks we should be excited about.

It was neat at first but now, two years later, as Schmidt is arguing we should abandon environmental goals to power AI, and billions in venture capital has been thrown away on this instead of actual, useful, functional technologies, it’s clear this isn’t going anywhere anytime soon.

This is their flagship video, already couched in “dreamy” and “fantastical” descriptors and it’s terrible. Generative AI is garbage. Actual data science and ML isn’t sexy and the profit margins are less.
