A musician whose work was one of my special interests — and how I survived my childhood — just released an AI-generated music video. I drew this out of spite.

I chose to draw a hand because image generators love fucking them up, and sparkles in its palm reference how AI companies have co-opted the symbol to make it seem more "magical".

It is not.

From a child's fingerprints on paper to a teen's stylus on their iPad, from baby's first words to an author's first bestseller, at the core of fandom and community, the magic is in our hands. ✨🤲

In The Listeners, Magz sends for a robot, Lis, to come and listen to him talk. The play might be set in the future, but this isn't very far away from current technology. For a while now, there have AI programs that can talk quite realistically in chatrooms - but how are they at listening? This video records a bizarre experiment where two chatbots were hooked up to each other, and the conversation they had. The result is a discussion about God, unicorns, and wishing they had a body - funny and creepy in equal measure - a lot like Lis, really.
