anyway - that's the post - AI - it scares me too - just like all the other scary shit in life lol
(7/)
don't cheat yourself out of an opportunity to learn something new - treat yourself to the excitement of discovery - the anticipation of the unknown - we are living in wild times and despite all of the shitty bits, there is even more to look forward to - we are still in the game - alive
(6/)
maybe AI is bad (it's not) - looking back at technological advances before they were accepted into the populous - always someone rejecting them - I implore you to ask yourself; how do you see this working out? - don't answer that question, just keep asking it and let your curiosity guide you.

life is crazy - maybe i dodged a bullet and CGI saved my life - who fucking knows - one thing i do know is; the older i get and the more experience i gain, the more i realize how much i don't know and how bad i am at predicting the future
(4/)
thing is - i couldn't say no to work - that's just me - i literally drown the year before in a river working on a different film - another stunt double fell on me and trapped me under water long enough to lose all function - 6 years later Steve Irwin died from a manta ray sting
(3/)
working on a crew ironing out rigging strategies - my name came up - I was tapped to ride a manta ray among other water related bits - all those scenes ended up CGI - and that's ok - that kind of shit happened all the time - we knew better than to get hopes up over 'talk'
(2/) my stupid fucking anecdote:
i'm old.
I've seen some shit and experienced some shit in my life.
I lost a job to CGI.
Following the loss of S.K. - summer of 2000 - the movie AI was full steam pre-production - I was poised and in the running to be HJO's stunt double.
more of the good stuff
i hate (sic) myself for laughing at this
laughed out loud
so very close to it

well, i guess if you are 'color-blind', you wouldn't see it. the irony is the problem - dealing with ignorant whtie people takes energy and stirs emotions, but go off
read my comment again - who else suffers from systemic racism everyday - if it isn't obvious and i didn't provide enough context (given the conversation in this thread) i apoligize - they = POC
who is they? really?
so you are going to just pretend like there is no structural racism dictating nearly every aspect of their lives every day?
the fierce urgency of now is still in effect - nobody has time for colorblind bullshit ffs
this hits like a really wild litmus test and i am uncomfortable now
that is a great analogy
to hold but one wish
The world is finding out what happens when the dog catches the car.
yeah baby yeah
i've been saying this - it surprises me it is not talked about more - it's so glaringly obvious
swag could be praxis but some people gotta keep playing
