I dug into this and it's not Generative AI. It's plug-in tools built into DaVinci Resolve to do artificial depth of field and parallaxing on images. This is stuff docs have been doing for decades and has since been more simplified with pre-built tools.
Ava DuVernay's 14th, about the 14th Amendment, uses AI to animate old photos that are in the public domain, and the filmmaker wants people to see the documentary for themselves before deciding how they feel about it. tinyurl.com/c6nj6vf7

the road to save education runs through demolishing MIT in its present form
"AI can draft an essay for you, especially if you give it a high quality prompt." Really? This is what MIT thinks high schoolers should learn? MIT's "Day of AI" dayofai.org provides materials for K-12 teachers and claims to have reached over 5,000,000 students to date. 1/2

Circling back to this, I think our ruthless evil bastards need more positive role models. Growing up, they're told the only way to be a maniacal psychopath is to take over the world and kill everyone when in reality they can open casinos and mug grade schoolers and still be evil!

After throwing almost all refinement away in the late 1980s, digital #typography is recovering qualities of past centuries, like optical sizes, ligatures, detail &the eternal truths of spacing. Independent type design is now an explosion of talent. We need design education to hold this line, though
Social media loves talking about how everything is getting worse. But what’s something that you’ve seen get _better_ in your lifetime?

Good gravy. Our much smaller library did a similar cull a few years ago and barely even told us what books were going out the door.
I asked UNH's archivist to create a file of letters protesting the "weeding" of 30% of the library's books. Future researchers need to know faculty did not let the books "go gentle into that good night" (30+ books on Dylan Thomas to be culled). 🗃️ #skystorians www.unionleader.com/opinion/op-e...
