The only correct take on a fundamentally anti-human technology.

Screenshot of David Simon interview
SHAPIRO: OK, so you've spent your career creating television without Al, and I could imagine today you thinking, boy, I wish I had had that tool to solve those thorny problems...
SIMON: What?
SHAPIRO: ...Or saying...
SIMON: You imagine that?
SHAPIRO: ...Boy, if that had existed, it would have screwed me over.
SIMON: I don't think Al can remotely challenge what writers do at a fundamentally creative level.
SHAPIRO: But if you're trying to transition from scene five to scene six, and you're stuck with that transition, you could imagine plugging that portion of the script into an Al and say, give me 10 ideas for how to transition this.
SIMON: I'd rather put a gun in my mouth.

oh this is fascinating stuff!! I really wanna know if someone can make this work in a physical medium. imagining the vanishing poem in a gallery exhibit, or something...

A significant factor for the visibility of the effect are the display properties. It was observed that the optical illusion
is most noticeable on devices with high contrast and a wide color range, as is the case with modern OLED displays.
This implies that a precise reproduction of rich purple tones and background blue colors is crucial to evoke the optical
illusion. This leads to the conclusion that it is expected that this optical illusion is barley visible on older monitors and
not visible at all in the printed medium. On the one hand, printing processes are limited in terms of the contrast range
that can be displayed, and on the other, the radiant light emission that is obviously necessary for the effect is missing.
An experiment with a light box, i.e. a backlight and semitransparent print, could be feasible. However, because of the
high demands on color fidelity and contrast, this would only be possible with considerable effort, which is why such
tests have not yet been carried out.

I do not post with my hand; she who posts with her hand has forgotten the face of her father.

I post with my heart.

this was called Cohost—not enough people used it or spent money on it relative to the amount of money it cost to (1) pay its 4 employees a living wage for their labor; and (2) keep the site running, so it died, nothing like it has taken its place at the scale it existed, and now we're here
