    What if the AI is a Lovecraftian entity, like in Dead Space? (lemmy.world)
     

    You see, roughly speaking (and with a few spoilers from a couple of games from more than 10 years ago (the third one doesn’t exist)), in the Dead Space DUOLOGY there are these effigies that drive people mad, but not in a stereotypical makes-them-gouge-out-their-eyes or tear-off-their-skin way (though that happens too, sometimes), but in a more subtle way.

    The effigy compels those close to it to create more effigies to increase its power, and makes them believe that it is the most logical and natural thing to do, that there is no alternative. Everyone involved thinks they have control over the effigy, that they can use it for their own purposes, but they are only deceiving themselves, causing more death and feeding the effigy.

    I see certain parallels in how our techno-feudal lords are convinced that AI will be the infinite money hack they crave so much, while they burn billions of dollars, ruin their reputations, enshittifies the internet, and generally fuck us all over.

    Maybe what we call "AI" is a Lovecraftian entity pulling the strings through this technology. Woooo~ 👻

    (Obviously, I don’t take this idea seriously; it’s more of a creative exercise or, well, a shower thought.)

    I'm curious: Are all the songs in your favorite music album masterpieces? or how do you determine an album is one of your favorites? (lemmy.world)

    My Take

    In my case, the albums that have become my favorites are the ones I feel I absolutely have to listen to from start to finish. Of course, there are standout tracks, and some, though good, might pale in comparison to others. But it’s the experience of listening to the entire album that captivates me.

    Examples:

    • "Flowerboy" by Tyler, The Creator.
    • "Affinity" by Haken
    • "Brat" by Charli XCX
    • The debut album by Gentle Giant

    What are your favorite albums and why?

    To those who draw and create art: Do you enjoy the process naturally, or did you have to develop the habit? If it was the latter, how did you do it? (lemmy.world)
     

    ContextI'm a writer, but I'd like to be a comic book artist. I’ve been trying to learn how to draw on and off for years. At first, I felt like I didn’t have the talent for it, but looking back at what I’ve done in previous years, I think my problem is more about motivation. I just don’t find the same fulfillment in drawing as I do in writing. I’d like to find a way to break through this imaginary barrier...
