All the tech companies are so excited about generative AI. But why are so many musicians "buying" into the LLM craze? Is it a "sellout"?

Question. I keep hearing some people say that this AI bubble is like the dotcom bubble, but that from the dotcom bubble we eventually got infrastructure for today's internet. But, was the dotcom thing opposed by people? Was it technology that grew organically from genuine demand or was it a few companies forcing it down on everyone? I would like to hear from someone more knowledgeable on these things on the claim that this bubble will pave the way for #ai
Time for my (or rather our) #introduction we are Peritia, a #queer #DID system,
Current Occupation: Sysadmin
So expect some #IT related things.
We joined Mastodon to validate the existence of our own instance.
Cause: Decentralization good. Corporate data hoarding bad.
#dmsopen, especially if youre queer #furry like linux, or have cute pet pics.
Will Follow back.
Just to manifest this finds some cool people and keep away idiots:
#Nonbinary #TransRights #NoAI
Trying to move away from the #Microsoft suite (#Word, #Powerpoint, #Excel), mostly because of their forcing of #Copilot on users.
It seems that the choice is between #LibreOffice or #OpenOffice - which one would you recommend that is most compatible with MS formats, has similar functionalities (but with #NoAI ) and is good for collaboration (e.g. can do tracked changes)?
(Best if it works with #Zotero)
I just published a new blog post about my #selfhosting plans for 2026 and... I remembered to add this pic (a scan of my own handwriting) at the bottom of the post.
It's now more important than ever: "written by a human"

I am so stubborn about not using AI.
You have no idea.
I will even go as far as writing my own texts, drawing my own images, writing my own code, and reading the whole article or email just by myself. Crazy stuff.
This week I've been rewriting (in Zig) the position-based dynamics & cellular-automata engines used for the cloth sim in my #DANZA art project (check the hashtag for older WIP)... Still endless tweaking, but could already stare at this beauty for hours, literally!
(And of course, I'm also again "dogfooding" http://thi.ng/genart-api for defining/handling parameters and animation timing...)

I've created & uploaded video previews of a few more #LinearMemory variations & recommend the download versions for best quality (HD720p @ 60fps)... The actual piece is a realtime (browser based), endless and non-repeating animation. The only things left now are further optimizations and making it dynamically adaptive to different screen/print sizes...

If your product doesn't use any AI at all,
you will be ahead of the curve.
And you should brag about it.
Politicians:
Terrified about citizens that might be sending private messages they cannot read on Signal -> Sudden panic about "protecting the children" 🙃
Also politicians:
Grok AI Chatbot collects data and asks for nudes from a 12-year old -> AI is innovation! We should invest billions in taxpayers money in it! 💰💰💰

this AI music-video… it’s nonsense and looks so bad…
this song doesn’t deserve it. god is dead, who thought this was a good idea…
the original music video is superior in every way, objectively. there is literally no angle in which it loses. :gutkato_kapaŭskultiloj:

GrungyDistanceFunctionVoronoiPixelArt for #TextureTuesday...
These are some selected snapshots of a single [endless] variation of my generative De/Frag V2 piece from 2021, an intentional attempt at creatively breaking the traditional aesthetic of #Voronoi diagrams and revealing the inner workings of the Jump Flood algorithm and combined with randomly perturbed distance functions...
Ps. New limited edition giclée prints in various sizes (of this and other projects) will be soon available from my store (currently in preparation)...

I am dreaming of a somehow human-curated privacy-respectful search engine that returns results that are free from all this intolerable AI-slop soup pollution, simply while using good old keywords.
Wouldn't that be great?
Wouldn't that be the future? 😌🌱
