Ariel Pink & AI Work Together

I discovered video artist kingcon2k11 when he made this video for Ariel Pink. His YouTube is incredible and there are many more crazy video art pieces like in the Ariel Pink music video. This video shows off some recent AI technology used creatively. After looking at Kingcon2k11’s site, one can’t deny the fascinating aspect of creativity. New things are born every day that have the power to deeply move you. God bless the artists.

“I approached Ariel the day after he released the og version of this track, Reindeers Falling, on his substack to make the music vid for it as a long time fan of his art, and having made more unofficial vids for him than anyone else, before I broke into doing official vids. I worked non stop for multiple days on this, I get the arguments against a.i art but not the way I use it as a tool, if u think that then cancel Tarintino n every other major artist you love. Everything's a remix and I work HELLA hard to remix the shit I do as do my friends and peers. Luv y'all even if you disagree, merrh Xmas n happy holifays n life no matter what u do. Right Wing, Left Wing, Chicken Wing right?” -kingcon2k11

Lex Fridman's - Artificial Intelligence Podcast

Listening to really smart people talk about the future of the human species in the wake of the impending singularity is super cool. It makes you feel smarter too. Even if you can only understand .003% of what they are talking about. The more we can understand what thinking and creativity are and where it comes from, the better Gods we’ll be to the life we are about to create. Which will then kill us all? Or not. Also, a question frequently visited on this podcast. There is no better show about AI out there and Lex seems like a great dude all around. Click it if you think this is a simulation and listen to how good they are at coding self reflection into the game.
