TED became the hotbed of nothingspeak, at least the - for the plebs - public version. People do these talks that doesn&#x27;t tell you anything, doesn&#x27;t give you any insight, it&#x27;s plain garbage.<p>&quot;Flies do exist, they have wings, they fly around, oh those flies, they are so sophisticated, yet so small creatures of our reality. Inspiring isn&#x27;t it?&quot;<p>Could someone tell TED to implement a search that fulfills the following: most viewed videos from the past 1 week, 1 month, 1 year.<p>Even porn sites have these very sophisticated filters.<p>Also, their subscription does not work. Also, it&#x27;s hard to seek their videos using that ui.<p>Maybe also implement a nothingspeak filter that leaves out empty, zero information videos like these.<p>That site is a mess.

Enhance humanity’s collective memory … perhaps or perhaps degrade humans grasp of reality. AI created images, videos, holodeck like future environments, virtual partners, etc may hasten humanities move away from being human.

At least to me the argument does not hold water. My fear is that humans being human, simulation of a coral reef imaginary or future holodeck-like experiences will not save the actual coral reefs. They might even hasten their demise (as less people are interested of the &quot;ugly&quot; reality of the reefs). The tech is cool, but the environment angle, at least here, feels as an afterthought.

Not really sure what this guys argument is, or what it gets us other than more AI imagery.<p>I’ve also never seen a coral reef in reality, I’ve only ever seen a simulated representation in the form of photographs and videos on tv&#x2F;online. I don’t know how synthesising even more is going to help with this connection&#x2F;disconnection.

High Ideals. Didn&#x27;t really catch how it isn&#x27;t a different take on anything else happening in generative AI.<p>What is the message here? We are killing the environment, so having AI generate simulated world is good because that is all we&#x27;ll have left to experience? We need AI simulated worlds since ours wont exist?<p>Just because you can make cool corals, and have the emotional tug around killing the environment, doesn&#x27;t mean that this tech isn&#x27;t being used to generate the intro sequence to marvel shows.

The models can produce a very very biased memory (as any other form of history) - just by virtue of being a product of technology does not make these algorithms any more objective. They&#x27;re trained on biased data after all.<p>So what we&#x27;ll remember is the cliché form of everything. That&#x27;s worth something in terms of history but is it an improvement over primary source material?
