Matt Bruenig is a socialist lawyer who loves using AI. You might even say he’s the prototypical example of a lefty who takes the contrarian position on AI among those he’s allied with politically. Earlier this year, he told Transformer’s Dan Kagan-Kans, for a piece titled “The left is missing out on AI,” that he was worried about “the left-wing abstaining from using the tools when the right-wing does not.” But it wasn’t abundantly clear to me at the time h

"Microslop": Infuriating Video Sums Up How Microsoft Is Ruining Windows With AI

Getty / Futurism Amid a riotous AI hype cycle, companies are promising that their agentic AIs will —eventually, at least — do everything from your grocery shopping to booking your travel plans. And what’ll you do with all that extra leisure time? Kick back and play some video games? Or will you deploy yet another AI to play the games for you, while you passively watch like the slack-jawed humans in “WALL-E”? It might sound like parody, but Japanese tech gi

New AI Video Generator Is So Impressive That It's Scaring Hollywood

We went from a horrifying clip of actor Will Smith’s contorted face temporarily merging with a bowl of spaghetti in 2023 to a far more realistic clip of him enjoying a plate of pasta — including a soundtrack of unnerving squelching and chomping sounds — a mere two years later.

The AI-Generated Tilly Norwood Just Dropped the Worst Music Video We've Ever Seen

Particle6 Late last year, video production company Particle6 triggered near-universal backlash when it unveiled its so-called “AI actress” dubbed “Tilly Norwood.” The timing of the announcement couldn’t have been worse, as some of the biggest names in Hollywood had been publicly and strongly denouncing the use of AI in filmmaking. The innocent-faced avatar, which The Verge previously lambasted as a “gen AI psyop,” perfectly played into the fears of those w

The feature, DLSS 5, is supposed to be a souped-up version of the deep-learning upscaling tech Nvidia has offered since 2018. The company called it its “most significant breakthrough in computer graphics since the debut of real-time ray tracing” in that same year.
