PSA for anyone who sees this in their car - it causes it to play a notification sound every time you exceed the speed limit. So if you are on a winding canyon road and your speed varies from 34-36, it'll continually bloop at you. Great for parents with teenagers?

No. LLMs have no ability to keep a character or a narrative voice. The technical difficulty of implementing it is, it seems like, the nightmare scenario. It's expensive, sure, but it's not a nightmare scenario for VAs to record the chit-chat, and they deserve to get paid for the work.

I did work on God of War: Ragnarok, which I also did not write for or compose on, but instead constructed the boat, sled and walking stories start/resume system that no one mentions because it’s so unbuggy and works so well that it works like everyone expects it should. It was a nightmare to make
4 million listeners apparently!
Also sharing the programme with the music from Legend of Zelda and God of War was quite a thing!
Congrats to @caraellison.bsky.social, @kylewbanks.com and @choiby.bsky.social too for your interviews and featured music!

I know this will make everyone vomit, but I could it be a legit use of AI to have it insert these little transitions instead of having to record every possible contingency?
Note: I use no recorded dialogue, just wondering if we can save everyone involved from such nightmare scenarios.

It is very hard. also i think a lot of VO is extremely expensive from trained experienced actors, so another reason it doesn’t happen is because hours of chitchat is very very expensive from professionals

star trek is about a utopian vision of the future bordering on fantasy where people someday will be able to make good choices about complicated problems by talking to each other and involving people who know about things
The thing about Star Trek is that the majority of it has the crew spending most of the episode trying to figure out, through arguing and investigating, what's the right thing to do in a complicated situation and I don't think any shows do that now? Like in a Very Special Episode but not all the time

I'm old.
If you're not, listen to this.
Get a guitar or some drums, or a trumpet. Pick up a brush, a pencil, some clay or a welder.
Just make shit. It doesn't have to be good (eventually it will be) just make music, art or write or whatever.
It's literally never been more important.

35 years ago, I was being thoroughly wowed by Mega Man 2. Capcom's legendary platformer was a top-tier NES classic. I described it as "incredibly tricky," which in today's parlance means "Dark Souls is comparatively a big wet pansy." Back then we gamers were all hard as nails. 😆
