Yeah no shade to this guy, but I thought that was obvious
Lookin at his face and yeah he definitely did
Well that’s a relief!
Smartest AI avi
Not that I trust these numbers even a little, but between 1900 and now there were two pretty big conflicts that might account for the reduced numbers of Europeans
The other one is hailing a taxicab. Because you need to go home
Most of the Walk Hard soundtrack, frankly
Matt Groening is pretty hands-off with the show and it seems like he’s only in this because Conan’s famous now. It’s actually kind of weird to listen to him try to buddy up with a former employee he clearly doesn’t know well
What d’you mean, normal men?
Slightly diminish a book Reasonable Expectations
“How do you make your living?” I asked. “Thantliliclisn,” said the ventriloquist.
The framing is bad because it ignores other evidence that paints a clearer picture, on which I will not elaborate
I have such a weird relationship to this song. I never liked it, but I kept listening to it as a kid
Insane response that absolutely disqualifies this person from talking about this. The evidence is the contracts! The ones you’re saying aren’t as bad as they’re being reported! Money was exchanged! That’s the point!
Watch Tenet and tell me the man knows how to mix audio
I think the voice is a lot of it, now that you mention it. Anytime someone quotes it, they do an impression.
That’s totally fair, he’s great. What I mean is I think the parts that tend to stick out in peoples’ memory are the really unique moments - ED-209, the leg gun holster, “I love this guy!”, etc. In light of all that, he’s merely a fantastically realized performance.
I think the script never specified any of the characters’ genders, so all the parts were technically open to anyone.
There’s so much going on in the movie he gets a little lost in memory, but he commands every single frame he’s in. Great stuff
You have to imagine John K. put up impressive numbers for his league but Bakshi was pitching in the majors.
Gonna have to be more specific

Someone had to
I stand corrected. Carry on.
Amish Ringo Starr and I don’t agree on anything
If you blew Superman using teeth you wouldn’t have teeth
Murderers are British in Slopland apparently
On the one hand, people have been calling her ugly on television since she was in her teens, and I don’t think that’s cool. On the other hand, this happened when she was in her forties and refused to go away, so I think it’s fine for comedians to make fun of her.
I’ll have you know his children watched him land face-first into a large boulder, then slide off the boulder onto the ground below before the boulder teetered on its narrow perch until it landed directly on top of him
This is really the key, Vance would be a terrible administrator but he’d have a lot of problems holding Trump’s coalition together. He just doesn’t have the stuff
The people he’s complaining about spent most of the election telling him the first two things and he brushed them off because he found them annoying, but now that there are consequences to that, it turns out he still doesn’t have to listen to them.
Nobody’s perfect
Yeah, Stephen King and Richard Bachman
Lamb gyro, lettuce and tomato, white sauce. Lets go.
El Gigante has a more symmetrical face
This is to say nothing of the two women sharing three legs and a pair of tits, but somehow I find the single arm more absurd
Dang, AI is getting harder to recognize
I was just in Dublin and you guys have nothing to apologize for. Lovely city you got there.
AI artists love to talk about how it’s not stealing art, it’s just a tool to help them make art from their ideas, but their ideas are stolen too
With a nice soft pretzel? Incredible
Pretty sure he wrote this under a pseudonym
I don’t think bacon should have bones, I don’t care how petite they are
People on this platform have the temerity to point and laugh as Time Magazine’s 2001 Person of the Year holds up a little sign that says “Ouch!” as a third train approaches
America’s Mayor has had his body contorted into the exact shape of an accordion and makes the corresponding sound very time he walks and I’m sorry if I don’t find that funny.
Giuliani painted a tunnel onto a big rock and then got in his car and drove into the rock at full speed and you’re laughing
Oh yeah, he’s the lawyer who headed the RICO case against the Five Families. I wonder what happened to him?
Mary Jane Watson poorly concealing her crush
It’s not a great song but I love the video
Have you tried being pro-Palestine enough?
This is what happens when you let a WOMAN etc.
What about an animal in a funny situation caused by the current state of social media
The people are demanding she leave her husband. Or at least that he get a job
I think that kills the show honestly. Sketch comedy can only benefit from being a little disposable, and you need that manic “this killed at 3am in the writers’ room” energy.
My theory for SNL is nobody stays more than six years. Doesn’t matter how good you are, doesn’t matter if the audience loves you. Six years and you’re out
I used to read the dictionary for fun. You know, instead of going to parties
You know how First They Came is about how the vulnerable wouldn’t simply vote with the writer, who wound up fine
My “My Husband Says That I Am A 10 But 30 Are My Miles Until Empty” shirt is raising a lot of questions already answered by the shirt
At least she wasn’t wearing PANTS amirite
Tuberculosis isn’t going away, but I wouldn’t try to bring it into schools.
I was just in Berlin so that’s where my mind is, and I’m not really defending Stalinism but I wonder if Mike knows he’s de facto advocating for what was there before
Man says he can’t get his dick sucked. Tried everything. Doctor says solution is simple, see the great mouth Pagliacci. He has no gag reflex, he’ll suck you right off. The man cries as hard as his recently-broken ribs will allow. “But doctor,”
The Chive still exists?!
Computer, give me a Chuck Norris that looks like someone deflated Haley Joel Osment
If you gave me 1000 guesses I never would have said that was steak
My car radio is experiencing ennui.
Man alive, imagine writing this and thinking you’re the good guy.
These people don’t want power. They want to endlessly threaten the powerless with state-authorized oppression as penance for not accepting their mundane tyranny with a smile.
I tell my friends I literally can’t tell the difference between Xboxes after 360 and they tell me it’s an old joke. I’m not joking, I literally can’t.
If you’re in a room with three Hitlers holding a gun with two bullets, make them all fight to the death and shoot the winner twice.
Hell yeah Woolie. Congrats!
It’s definitely real but one of the women desperately needs medical attention
This was one of those movies I used to watch on a loop as a kid. I have really vivid memories of *some* of it. Couldn’t for the life of me tell you what it’s about, other than it kind of ends like Toy Story 2
All the stars are here.
Oh no you locked yourself out of the good ending already
FYI the “aesthetic Turing Test” it supposedly passed is the Vogue ad we all made fun of for being obviously fake
I once sued a landlord who had agreed to let me out of a lease before I moved in. They had agreed in writing to return my rent, but when questioned in court said they were simply entitled to keep it. They could not be argued out of this and were incredulous that we felt otherwise.
Gwen I am turning forty literally as I type this and I feel like I’ve only just shot the opening salvo. Life begins at whatever. We make the rules.
Don’t give them that much credit. There was no reason to traumatize the children even if it was the guy they were trying to get
Yeah man, don’t even worry about learning. AI can just do whatever we used to teach you. That’ll be $40,000 please.
Turning off replies and reposts to this was diabolical
Chris Pratt has a scene where he’s trying to re-enact a pie being thrown in someone’s face, so he mashes it in as slowly as possible, to study the angle. Do you know how rare it is to see a *new* pie in the face joke?
Maybe it’s a chicken/egg thing. I dunno. But I’ve never heard an AI guy give a rational argument for AI being art outside of there being nobody else in the process. They don’t, or can’t, or won’t understand what’s being asked of them, which is the first requirement of any artist.
And maybe this is the crux of it. A machine that makes pictures look fine enough without skill will only be used by someone who wants to make pictures that look fine enough without skill. AI can’t show the user’s flaws. It can’t make art, so the people who insist on using it won’t be artists.
They know this, which is why they lead with the “you can’t even tell!” argument. They think art is meant to *look* like art. Aesthetics are all that matter to them, because they can’t fathom that there could be deeper meaning. They don’t care.
The question of what art is goes back centuries, if not millennia. New technologies have introduced new questions about the nature of art. These idiots can accuse me of gatekeeping all they like, but they’re the ones who interjected into the conversation. They have to justify themselves now.
I disagree. The picture my phone takes when I drop it is not art. The paint dropped on the sidewalk is not art. A picture created in the absence of an artist does not confer the title to the next in line, it simply creates absent art.
The meaning of art has been debated over centuries, and if AI is a new art form, then its practitioners have an opportunity to redefine the relationship between art and artist. They tell us they don’t understand the question. AI *is* art, because it makes pictures, and pictures are art.
An artist cares. Anyone living with the sickness that compels them to express themselves through a medium other than thought spends a lifetime finding nuance in shades of red. AI people show off the pictures they had a machine make for them, as they “improve”. They look the same.
AI enthusiasts push back, of course. It takes a great deal of work to get the AI to do what you actually want it to do. You have to choose specific words, I guess. They’ll show you their prompts if you ask. They never seem to if a red is crimson or maroon.
Someone making a picture of a cardinal using AI can command the machine to point the cardinal in a certain direction, or not. It’s entirely possible they don’t care about such trivialities. The picture exists either way. A viewer cannot discern the person’s intent, skill, or perspective.
The conversation you’re replying to wound up getting splintered off into two other arguments on the same topic, revolving loosely around the idea of choice. A painter painting a cardinal chooses which direction the cardinal is pointing; the photographer does not. Both can be art.
George Wyner would be giving the funniest performance in most other movies but Moranis is so silly he comes off as the straight man
We tried running 99% Hitler and voters said no, I don’t want to vote for Hitler. But we *haven’t* tried 99.9% Hitler.
There’s a Cheeto in the dang White House
God, the kind of movie that makes you love movies. What a gem
I bet this thing would kill it as a drummer for the Electric Mayhem
