Welcome to IndieTalk!

And you wonder why I hate AI? BBC.com has been reporting on (and I've posted about) AI can't even scan and summarize an article correctly. It's doing the work of humans cheaper and faster, not better.

I respect AI far more if used to advance scientific research than in the arts. And yeah, it's here but that doesn't mean I have to use it or like it.

When I worked in foreign exchange, we had a phrase: "talking your book." It meant that a trader expressed their opinions on the currency market in a way that they hoped would motivate others to take positions that would increase the value of their holdings. For example, if they were long euros...

AI for anything film-related feels exactly like this: it's out to devour us to make shit cheaply. Not better - definitely NOT better. Just cheaper. And that pisses me off (as everyone knows!).

Should be shadowy and dim, creepy not bright. I wanted squeaky floor boards, squeaking doors. And re @The Lone Banana 's comment, without putting words in their mouth: there's SO much content these days, no one is going to spend 26 minutes watching your short unless you really pitch it well...

I watched about 5 minutes but it's VERY slow - feels like it could/should have been 15 minutes max rather than 26 minutes. The lighting where the young women are supposedly in the abandoned house is MUCH too bright and took me right out of the scene. The sound isn't terrible - I've heard worse...

Yup, agreed.
