So I watched the first episode and, well, it is a little, oh hell, it way to romantic for me. I think it is clearly geared towards the same girls that have seen Titanic 20+ times. Maybe it is just me and I'm not going to write it off based on one episode, but so far I'm not impressed. It feels like it is the same old story, but this time they can't show T&A since it is on the CW.

So another good episode, but... 1 thing that REALLY bothers me about the show was the camera... It was jittery as HELL last night.. I mean that may be the way they want to portray the show or something, but man, I found my eyes shaking after a few scenes.. It was really noticeable when Nina was in the house looking for Stefan but Damon was there. Remember that part? Go back and look at that scene and how jerky the camera was.

Does that bother anyone else?

I never noticed that, I'll have to rewatch the episode.

Why does the short haired vampire look like a bobble head doll in most of the pictures? Always sticking his neck out. He's either a bobble head or a giraffe.

Watched the first episode. Wasn't my cup of tea because I hate twilight, including the books, with a passion. I'll stick to reruns of angel. Spike FTW.

Girl is extremely attractive and has the same type of build as my girlfriend, and I find her adorable.

Very nice episode last night.

One thing I'm lost is Elena's house and Stefan and Damon. Why they kinda put emphasis on both entering the house?

Vampires can't enter a house unless you invite them in

Aww I'm starting to get hooked on this show.... How hot is that actress Candice Accola?!

This is actually enjoyable. Not as many annoying scenes as I'd expected. There were lines in True blood that ****ed me off more like "I just got a text from Bill". Ugh.

I enjoyed True Blood but it was just a little too southern for me.

    • So its a museum of AI prompts? Boring
    • This one baffles me...so they are creating a museum based around the Ship of Theseus? A museum is supposed to preserve things. It doesn't really work if the conversation goes, "I gazed upon Starry Night the other day, the colours were beautiful!" "Yeah...I didn't expect Godzilla to show up, though." Create a building devoted to displaying AI work, fine. The rainforest idea sounds interesting and I would consider visiting if they pay me a few bucks. But don't call it a museum...
    • >defenders of AI-generated artworks often claim that AI is just a tool It is not. It is the inhuman artist replacement. The human writing the prompt is the employer/manager requesting the work product of the artist -- a supervisory/descriptive job that doesn't carry with it any rights to the copyright of that work product at all. And since AI is not human itself, it can't gain copyright for anything it is asked to regurgitate or hallucinate, so it can't transfer that copyright to the employer/manager/human who asked for the output. This was all legally reaffirmed last year. So, no, while there are AI tools, AI slopware generation is NOT a "tool" in the legal definition of that word.

    • Google is opening the world's first AI museum in Los Angeles by Ivan Jenic Image via: Google Ever since AI image generators went mainstream, the debate over whether AI-generated art is real art hasn't let up. Those who don’t consider AI to be art say that if a machine does the creating and anyone can prompt it, there’s no skill involved, and therefore no art is produced. The counter-argument is equally persistent, as defenders of AI-generated artworks often claim that AI is just a tool, and that every major technological breakthrough, like the camera or the computer, was met with the same skepticism before eventually being accepted as a legitimate creative medium. Google’s position in this debate is clear. Which is no surprise, as the company is investing billions in AI infrastructure. And now, in efforts to encourage people to use its AI even more, Google is opening Dataland on June 20, which it's calling the world's first AI arts museum. Located inside The Grand LA, a Frank Gehry-designed building in Los Angeles, the museum spans 25,000 square feet. The museum is built around a collaboration with media artist Refik Anadol, who has worked with Google since 2016. The inaugural exhibition is called Machine Dreams: Rainforest, and is powered by an AI model trained on “an extensive dataset of the natural world.” It generates 1.2 billion pixels of visuals in real time and reacts to visitors dynamically. The space also generates soundscapes, real-time emotion sensing, and algorithmically produced scents. Image via: Refik Anadol Studio / Google Google says that the museum is powered by its Gemini models, which run on Google Cloud. So, everything is generated inside one of Google’s AI data centers and is streamed to the museum. Alongside the museum opening, Google Arts & Culture is funding an AI Artist Residency, giving four artists $25,000 grants each, along with mentorship from Refik Anadol Studio and access to Google's machine learning tools. Their work will be shown at Dataland and on the Google Arts & Culture website later this year. Google’s AI museum will undoubtedly initiate a fired-up debate on social media, and we can’t wait to see the first reactions. Via: Smithsonian Magazine
