This video is incredible.
Everyone should RETWEET it so the whole *world* sees it.

This is these guys in a nutshell. It's a shot-for-shot remake of the original trailer... except it's not even a good copy. It's not just that there is not a single original idea in there, they aren't even aware that they have taken out all the substance. (A li'l thread.)

There are many who have sought to frame this week of far-right riots as outpourings of legitimate anger. They are not. This is racist violence spurred on by far-right hatred. Those directly involved in these horrifying scenes need to face the full force of the law. 3/7

Not sure playing Radiohead’s Creep over a video montage of Andy Murray’s career is the greatest compliment. #Wimbledon

I’m finally ready to tell the world about my private life. This has taken a lot of courage and a lot of thought. But here we go. shorturl.at/nENOY

It is worth watching this CNN video from the moment Emory Econ Professor @CarolineFohlin came across the violent arrest of a protester on campus and asked the police, with shock, "What are you doing?" That's all that prompted an officer to hurl her to the ground and handcuff her.
A CNN crew witnessed at least two professors detained by Atlanta police, including @EmoryUniversity economics professor Caroline Fohlin and Noëlle McAfee, chair of the philosophy department. #FreePalestine cnn.com/business/live-news/c…

My bf spent more than half a year of working DAILY on this video + i also was helping him with cleanup. All just to fucking A*I video to win lmao

Absolutely insane how Pink Floyd chose an AI generated video as the winner of their $100k animation competition over a hand crafted masterpiece such as this one by @TheInsaneum
Fuck AI
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
The AI video cited won the competition for the song "Any Colour You Like", while the one posted by OP was participating for the song "Eclipse".
This video lost to another human made MV created using claymation and is now on the official Pink Floyd YouTube channel seen below.

This video didn't lose to AI, but rather a claymation video made by Monica Fibbi, as they both were competing for the song "Eclipse".
The AI video "made" by Damián Gaume won the competition for "Any Colour You Like". Both are now available in Pink Floyd's YouTube channel:

objectively funny that lead actresses from two excellent films in anatomy of a fall and killers of the flower moon (as well as a female director for the former) were nominated but because the two hour advertisement for mattel didn’t we have to pretend it’s some grand injustice ☹️
Both Margot Robbie & Greta Gerwig were snubbed in their respective #Oscars categories: Best Actress & Best Director.

Parcel delivery firm DPD have replaced their customer service chat with an AI robot thing. It’s utterly useless at answering any queries, and when asked, it happily produced a poem about how terrible they are as a company. It also swore at me. 😂

Bit harsh. I wasn’t a fan of hers, but this is a bit extreme.
