Recently my wife picked me up a Nintendo Wii at a thrift store.
I plugged the component cables into the back of my TV and turned it on. When I was met with the Wii homepage, I got hit with a wave of nostalgia. I was incredibly excited to boot up Super Mario Galaxy and relive my childhood. The game is dripping with charm and innovation on every single level. I loved this game as a kid and I still very much do.
So there I am, being productive, getting work done, listening to music.
I like to listen to rock while I'm working at a computer. YouTube Music has a feature that will shuffle songs from different up and coming artists that it thinks you will like. As I'm working this realization kind of dawns on me. The song that I've been listening to for the past minute is A.I. generated.
I mean, I hadn't even realized it at first, I was just focusing on my work. But then the lyrics didn't make any sense. And then I realized the singers voice sounded all static-y. And then I looked at the album "art" and it was rife with AI artifacts.
