@CAPETOK sorry to disappoint but this is a known AI fake. Animal shelters are warning that reality is different (though ofcourse they look for a match and a good new home).

Terrible idea.
Birds have got better things to do than keep Ai alive.

Sam Altman "movies are going to become video games and video games are going to become something unimaginably better".

He got 'Unimaginable' right.

😂 “It’s just a tool” is my favourite endlessly regurgitated talking point; Stolen, one use only, unreliable, with no warranty, instructions or reliability.

But defiantly a tool.

Remembering a conversation I had with a lawyer about Ai last year. He talked about how useful LLMs were for his business. But what *really* excited him, was the prospect of watching Ai generated films, and never having to pay photographers for their work.

Like Pratchett said, knowledge is the only thing that looks bigger, the further you are away from it.
