- I’m *really* trying to get on the AI bandwagon but goddamn LLMs are so fucking dumb. I agree with Yann LeCun; we’re wasting our time with LLMs - it’s a dead end. It’s not the answer nor will it replace everyone’s jobs. I’ve been using it heavily and I spend more time correcting it than anything
- From ChatGPT:
- I made a hologram shader in GLSL in TouchDesigner - 256 samples and still 60fps on my old iMac!
- New project: recreating the slitscan Stargate sequence of 2001: A Space Odyssey using the original artwork from the 1968 film and TouchDesigner. No images exist of the original transparencies so I took a tiny blurry JPG and upscaled and enhanced it with ChatGPT and Photoshop youtu.be/RGDJn-zJ4o4?...
- I set up my scene exactly like this, with a tiny slit of light allowed to be exposed for a long time while the camera moves (or in this case, the transparencies move) through. It’s infinitely repeatable too.
- Just so you know, the red line is when they start arresting journalists
- I’ve been teaching myself TouchDesigner and recently learned how to use my MIDI controller with it. I used ChatGPT to create lighting passes for a test scene - check it out here youtu.be/Pi_z4yRn-mk?...
