Don't want spooky season to be over? Do like Jemaine Clement and artists behind the Over the Garden Wall soundtrack? Then you might enjoy this song I discovered the day after Halloween!

Some thoughts are the kind you keep to yourself. Some thoughts are the kind that build in pressure until you simply must release them out onto the internet

I still can't get YT's AI auto-dubbing and title translations to turn off properly, and didn't even know I was opted in until my viewers complained
You may have seen this story blowing up about Will Smith using AI to generate fake audiences to promote his latest tour, but the truth is more complicated. The audiences are real, but the footage was manipulated: first by Will Smith's team and then, without permission, by YouTube itself.
Will Smith's concert crowds are real, but AI is blurring the lines - Waxy.org

YouTubers have an "auto AI reply-bot" tool that supposedly responds to viewer comments in the creator's unique voice. I wanted to see if I could train it to act like an edgy rude gamer by insulting my subs.

So there's a direct reason for the sycophancy! It's a major issue because of Reinforcement Learning with Human Feedback (RLHF)!
I just made this video about how weirdly complimentary all the AI suggested comment responses are.

So you’re probably aware that YTers have a tool to “respond” to comments with “AI”. I’m curious whether this tool takes any information from MY actual comments. Reply to my YT post and I’ll reply with a scathing PG insult! Then I'll update if my reply recs change!

Are there non-Christian religious music bands in the same way there's Christian Contemporary? Like "We were meant to live for so much more... Have we lost ourselves? Somewhere we live in a cycle of reincarnation"

If you decide to put your face on the internet, be prepared for multiple independent commenters to tell you who your eyes look like. For me that's Finnish developer of the linux kernel and overall git Linus Torvalds... hooray!

@sunsetvisitor.studio If I were hypothetically making a video about your game, how would I go about pronouncing the title? Is it "one thousand ex resist" or "a thousand times resist" or something else?
