The Walking Dead (Season 2)


Recommended Posts

Wow! That was an amazing season finale. All hell broke loose. It has to have beaten the record for most walkers in a single episode. And that sword-wielding person with the two walkers in chains... damn.

it was like playing Dead Rising all over again! :D

That's the thing about the Walking Dead. I find every second last episode seems like the actual Season finale instead of the real Season finale itself. The real Season finale seems like the first episode of the season, just like what Larry said.

Because of a lot of you all here, I've decided to start reading the comic books for The Walking Dead. I read the first issue last night, and I see the pilot for the show was almost exactly the same, even down to the zombie crawling around where Rick got the bike. That was awesome. The show definitely added some stuff, but I'm interested to see just how different the show is from the comic. I'm not one to really read a lot, especially books/comics, but this is one where I'm very interested, especially after I keep hearing about that certain character that was previewed/unveiled. Hopefully it won't take long to get caught up on the comic. I've already seen tons of spoilers though, but as long as I don't know "when" it happens, I think I'll be ok with them lol.

A few of the seasons of the Sopranos ended like this too, which was fine... it just isn't something brand new with TWD.

Pretty good ending! The new character felt a bit shoehorned in though.

They had to change it, because in the show they aren't going to take in 'strays' as they just established with Randall. In the comics, Michonne just shows up at the location where they are next. Now she has an Andrea escort to bring her there.

Like how if they just left the farm house for like 3 hours, all the zombies would have wandered away, and they could resume living there....

Or like how they drove past tons of really good military hardware in the first season.

Or how they don't have any go-bags for rapid escapes.

Or how they don't have to come to a stop when a zombie or two is in front of their car--that RV should have just kept rolling.

Or how all zombies would have already been dead due to decomposition. :rofl:

That's true too but that's supposed to be part of the suspension of disbelief. Just like how a couple of machine guns would tear up a zombie horde. It wouldn't be too hard to clear out a crowd with some good terrain advantages and some flammable materials.

    • 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
