(PATREON EXCLUSIVE)Shirleon, "I really don't think I can say anything bad about the movie."Melvin does a rundown of similarities he's observed between the 3 Miyazaki-directed movies they've covered on the show.Chihiro grows from someone who fears a lack of agency into someone empowered with determination.Spirited Away is a little different from other family-accessible movies in that its complicating incident isn't the fault of it's child-protagonist but rather their parents.The concept of "work" is constantly on the mind of the movie.Talking about the "weeping rice-cake" scene.If we spend time meditating on the blessings of our lives, we start to notice how supported and how resilient we are.Recommendations:Code Geass: Lelouch of the Rebellion (2006) (Anime)Durarara!!

It's a beautiful day to be a human, bathing in the glorious sunshine of this week's heatwave. However, it's also a pretty good time to be Artificial Intelligence... or a bot.This week on the podcast we're kicking off a two part AI deep dive. Firstly, in this episode, we will talking about the recent author protests outside of Meta's London offices, asking whether AI can really make art, and looking at how AI is creeping into our everyday lives.It recently emerged that Meta, the tech conglomerate formerly known as Facebook Inc, which owns Facebook, Instagram, WhatsApp and Threads has scraped millions of books from the pirate data library Library Genesis- more commonly known as LibGen- to use to train its flagship AI model Llama 3.Last month, icon, illustrator and Studio Ghibli co-founder, Hayao Miyazaki, was being copied and mimicked thanks to thanks to OpenAI's latest version of its ChatGPT tool.. His water-colour, hand drawn illustrations truly are so loved across the world and bring so much beauty to those films. As creatives we perhaps have a particularly purist approach to the incorporation of AI into our work, not only from a moral and ethical standpoint, where so many people may soon be out of work, but also from a creative protectionist point of view, where the time and practise and skills needed to create valuable and adored art should be celebrated rather than replicated by machines; but what about in other industries? In education? In schools?Join us next week for part 2 where we will be diving into how the tech's increasingly seeping into our relationships and internal worlds.O,R.B xx‘Meta has stolen books': authors to protest in London against AI trained using ‘shadow library'The Unbelievable Scale of AI's Pirated-Books Problem Why I – and other bestselling authors – are protesting outside Meta todayBen Affleck explains why it's 'highly unlikely' AI will destroy film, claims it may even enhance the industryHayao Miyazaki's ‘disgusted' thoughts on AI resurface following Studio Ghibli trendChristie's AI art auction outpaces expectations, bringing in more than $728,000Does A.I.

El debate alrededor de la inteligencia artificial se instala en las escuelas de diseño, animación y fotografía de París. De la productividad a la sensibilidad artística, la comunidad educativa busca respuestas y garantías en cuanto a las salidas profesionales. ChatGPT, Midjourney y Firefly son solo algunos de los muchos nombres comerciales de la inteligencia artificial generativa (IAG), una tecnología que se nutre de datos, textos e imágenes para entrenar sus algoritmos y, a su vez, producir nuevos contenidos escritos y audiovisuales. Aunque el origen de la IA generativa se remonta a varias décadas atrás, el desarrollo exponencial durante los últimos años explica el debate acerca de sus límites éticos, su impacto ecológico y la creciente preocupación por su falta de regulación. Y también sobre la banalización del arte y el trabajo creativo.“Es un insulto a la vía misma”, declaró Hayao Miyazaki, fundador del famoso estudio de animación Studio Ghibli, tras la ola de imágenes inspiradas en el estilo de sus películas creadas con inteligencia artificial. Una opinión compartida por un sector de los estudiantes que aspiran a trabajar en dicha industria.Foco en la propiedad intelectual“Es regurgitar un montón de imágenes hechas por artistas a los que no han pedido su consentimiento. No tiene sentido”, se queja Lianne, estudiante en cine de animación en la escuela de Gobelins París. "Es ilegal, no pagan por los derechos de autor, ¡es un robo!", añade su compañera Laura. Sin una delimitación clara, la cuestión de la autoría sigue siendo confusa.“Es algo cada vez más presente en nuestro día a día y creo que irá a más”, opina Louane, que también cursa cine de animación en Gobelins. Prefiere no pensar en la inteligencia artificial porque le produce cierto estrés, “pero es verdad que hay que tenerlo en cuenta”, admite. “Si hacemos una formación tan reconocida como ésta es para encontrar trabajo después. Si la IA nos lo quita, es estúpido hacerla”, concluye.El diseño gráfico, ¿en peligro?Difícil obviar la cuestión. Según el último Informe sobre el Futuro de los Empleos del Foro Económico Mundial, publicado en enero de 2025, la automatización que la IA trae consigo supondrá la destrucción de 92 millones de puestos de trabajo para 2030, mientras que creará otros 170 millones. Entre las profesiones con una rápida tendencia de declive, según este informe, está el diseño gráfico.“Una compañera de trabajo que no tenía estudios en este ámbito hizo un logo con ChatGPT y pensó que así ya podría ser grafista. Me lo dijo como si mi trabajo fuese un fraude", cuenta Axelle, estudiante de la escuela de diseño LISAA.Útil para ganar tiempoPero la IA no es perfecta. Como cualquier otra herramienta, para los que se sirven de ella como tal, es necesario utilizarla correctamente para obtener los resultados deseados. "Te hace ganar mucho tiempo, pero hay que saber hacer un prompt (la orden que se le da a la IA para que responda con un texto, imagen o vídeo, NDLR) y seleccionar las imágenes correctas. Siempre hará falta un director artístico que la supervise”, asegura Noémie, también de la escuela LISAA. “Tengo un bagaje suficiente como para poder encontrar un empleo. No puedes no usarla solo por tener miedo a que te quite el trabajo."Algunos la usan porque la ven como una herramienta, otros la rechazan por motivos éticos o ecológicos, pero el debate alrededor de la inteligencia artificial roza incluso lo filosófico. "Mientras no tengas demasiado apego a las herramientas y mantengas tu independencia y tus ideas, me parece bien", dice Tony, alumno de diseño gráfico y animación en la escuela ECV, aventurándose a hacer el paralelismo con la película “Her” (Spike Jonze, 2013), donde el personaje interpretado por Joaquín Phoenix se enamora de una inteligencia artificial.“En la escuela usamos la IA para generar storyboards que luego convertimos en secuencias de video.”. Para él, la utilidad está en la fase de preproducción de los proyectos, donde asegura que le permite avanzar mucho más rápido.Priorizar la creatividad y la sensibilidadEl grado de permisión e incorporación de la IAG en los programas educativos depende de cada escuela, de cada departamento y de cada docente. “Nosotros incorporamos la IA desde el primer año de la formación. Los alumnos aprenden técnicas de fotografía analógica y digital, pero también el tratamiento de sus fotos con inteligencia artificial”, explica Yann Philippe, enseñante de fotografía y vídeo en Gobelins."No sentimos que nuestro trabajo esté directamente amenazado por la IA y creemos que, con un buen uso e inteligencia, puede potenciar la creatividad de algunos alumnos”. Son sorprendentemente los que ingresan con amplios conocimientos de IA generativa los menos interesados en trabajar con ella y más con el formato analógico y los procesos tradicionales, a diferencia de quienes no la han utilizado aún. “De todas formas, las herramientas avanzan a tal velocidad que cuando terminamos de preparar los cursos, ya están obsoletas."“Hice el curso de Midjourney de Gobelins, pero me interesa más la autenticidad”, confiesa Axel, alumno de fotografía, con su cámara Leica analógica colgada del hombro. “Con IA o sin IA, lo importante es la motivación y la sensibilidad que cada artista pone en sus proyectos.” Este precisamente lo que Yann Philippe busca desarrollar porque considera que “es ahí donde está su valor añadido”.La inteligencia artificial generativa avanza más rápido que el ritmo al que se da respuesta a las dudas y preguntas que ésta plantea, y se exige un marco normativo a la altura de los retos que conlleva. La Ley de Inteligencia Artificial de la Unión Europea, en vigor desde el 1 de agosto de 2024, es un primer paso, pero no parece suficiente. En el ámbito educativo, la UNESCO ha realizado una llamada urgente a los gobiernos de todo el mundo para que la regulen de manera eficaz.

Although science fiction cinema did not begin in the USA it seems that by the 1950s Hollywood had tapped into the ravenous appetite the public had for the genre. The period is now known as the Golden Age of Science Fiction with an array of films ranging in style, topic and quality. Themes of space travel, alien invasion, nuclear fears and cold war paranoia are strewn across the decade. Meanwhile in Czechoslovakia Karel Zamen was working on making some cinematic masterpieces made for children based on the works of Jules Verne and other late 19th century authors. In 1958 he made the film Invention for Destruction based on Verne's novel Facing the Flag. In 1961 this was dubbed in English and retitled The Fabulous World of Jules Verne and distributed by Warner Bros. The visual style is based on late 19th century etchings and illustrations of Verne's novels which you can take a look at on this Instagram post. The film went on not only to inspire many prominent filmmakers like Hayao Miyazaki, Tim Burton and Terry Gilliam but also a cohort of writers who cite his film as being the origin for the style of steampunk science fiction. I spoke to two wonderful guests to understand the historical context and ongoing influence of the film. Thomas Lamarre is a Professor of Film, Media, and East Asian Languages and Civilisations at the University of Chicago. He is also the author of the Steam Punk cinema chapter in the Oxford Handbook of New Science Fiction Cinemas. Mary Heimann is Professor of Modern History at Cardiff University. She is also the author of the book Czechoslovakia: The State that Failed.

A pig-headed pilot takes on air pirates and fascists while regaining his humanity in this adventure from Hayao Miyazaki. Set in 1929, it's a story of love, honor, pacifism, and resistance. For this, we watched the English dub from 2005; I know, I know, subs over dubs, but so it goes. Starring (in the dub) Michael Keaton, Cary Elwes, Kimberly Williams-Paisley, Susan Egan, David Ogden Stiers, and Brad Garrett. Written and directed by Hayao Miyazaki.

The internet has been flooded with AI-generated images in the style of Studio Ghibli, the animation studio founded by the famous Japanese director Hayao Miyazaki. What made Studio Ghibli's work so special was not only its distinctive style but also the fact that the images were all hand-drawn. The contrast between the high skill and hard labour of the original Studio Ghibli images and the Ghibli-style pictures churned out by ChatGPT-4o couldn't be starker. The easy proliferation of Studio Ghibli images through Gen AI has once again put the spotlight on questions about what generative AI means for the working classes, and for the value of their intellectual labour. Is Gen AI another chapter in the history of automation and deskilling? Is it a means to enhance worker surveillance? And what does it mean for the future of the ‘creator-economy'?

ChatGPT è andata in tilt perché troppi utenti si sono messi ad usare una nuova funzionalità che permette di creare disegni con lo stile tipico dello studio Ghibli, il laboratorio di fumetti e animazione del famoso illustratore giapponese Hayao Miyazaki. Ma siamo sicuri che qualcuno abbia dato il permesso all'intelligenza artificiale di copiare così spudoratamente? In questa puntata parleremo anche del Myanmar, colpito da uno dei terremoti più devastanti della sua storia e ancora lacerato da una guerra civile che rende difficili i soccorsi. Il presidente americano ha imposto i dazi sui prodotti stranieri che vogliono entrare negli Stati Uniti, compresi da quelli (ma quali?) che provengono da isole dove abitano solo pinguini. Intanto in Senato italiano ha cancellato 30mila vecchie e buffe leggi mentre gli scienziati hanno scoperto il segreto delle macchie delle giraffe

Send us a textIn time where every person on the internet has access to AI on any platform or interface, the Gents take the time to reflect on the generative images people are creating through inspiration of Studio Ghibli animation (1:15). Where it is all good fun, they stress the message that founder of the studio Hayao Miyazaki warned potential artists that this will destroy the foundations of making art. In recent events, there has been an over surplus of nerd news, which is perfect timing for the Gents to deliver the nerdcore show for April. EstoBro evaluated the latest from Nintendo from their Direct showcase they had a week ago (15:40), as TV opens up questions on what will take place for their Switch 2 announcements this week. There was even additional news on how Nintendo will deliver news to their fans, even with the nonchalant announcement for targeted release date for the Super Mario Bros. movie sequel and a live action Legend of Zelda film. With multiple media outlets to deliver video game news, it is with great pleasure that the EstoBro TV Podcast announces the return of GameInformer magazine (28:05). After a brief hiatus from last year, the major video game news outlet is set to make it's return to delivering quality video game news for gamers. The Gents are more than thrilled to see what is to come from GameInformer as a whole, and the endless possibilities it has to deliver quality video game headlines. Pivoting to the latest in the MCU news, the Gents recap the insanity of the cast teasing of Avengers: Doomsday (37:05). The pair debate over past Marvel alumni that were not featured in the series of clips, but they do hold out optimism on what is to come after releases of titles that set to release this year. They also comment on the reveal of Spider-Man films with release dates set for Tom Holland to return in Spider-Man: Brand New Day and the final installment of the Spider-Verse trilogy. Transitioning from the focus on Marvel, the Gents are truly excited about season two of Marvel Rivals rolling out this month (55:30). They break down the reveals of Blade, Ultron, and Emma Frost as the potential characters that will be playable in the multiplayer hero shooter game.

This week we talk about Studio Ghibli, Andrej Karpathy, and OpenAI.We also discuss code abstraction, economic repercussions, and DOGE.Recommended Book: How To Know a Person by David BrooksTranscriptIn late-November of 2022, OpenAI released a demo version of a product they didn't think would have much potential, because it was kind of buggy and not very impressive compared to the other things they were working on at the time. This product was a chatbot interface for a generative AI model they had been refining, called ChatGPT.This was basically just a chatbot that users could interact with, as if they were texting another human being. And the results were good enough—both in the sense that the bot seemed kinda sorta human-like, but also in the sense that the bot could generate convincing-seeming text on all sorts of subjects—that people went absolutely gaga over it, and the company went full-bore on this category of products, dropping an enterprise version in August the following year, a search engine powered by the same general model in October of 2024, and by 2025, upgraded versions of their core models were widely available, alongside paid, enhanced tiers for those who wanted higher-level processing behind the scenes: that upgraded version basically tapping a model with more feedstock, a larger training library and more intensive and refined training, but also, in some cases, a model that thinks longer, than can reach out and use the internet to research stuff it doesn't already know, and increasingly, to produce other media, like images and videos.During that time, this industry has absolutely exploded, and while OpenAI is generally considered to be one of the top dogs in this space, still, they've got enthusiastic and well-funded competition from pretty much everyone in the big tech world, like Google and Amazon and Meta, while also facing upstart competitors like Anthropic and Perplexity, alongside burgeoning Chinese competitors, like Deepseek, and established Chinese tech giants like Tencent and Baidu.It's been somewhat boggling watching this space develop, as while there's a chance some of the valuations of AI-oriented companies are overblown, potentially leading to a correction or the popping of a valuation bubble at some point in the next few years, the underlying tech and the output of that tech really has been iterating rapidly, the state of the art in generative AI in particular producing just staggeringly complex and convincing images, videos, audio, and text, but the lower-tier stuff, which is available to anyone who wants it, for free, is also valuable and useable for all sorts of purposes.Just recently, at the tail-end of March 2025, OpenAI announced new multimodal capabilities for its GPT-4o language model, which basically means this model, which could previously only generate text, can now produce images, as well.And the model has been lauded as a sort of sea change in the industry, allowing users to produce remarkable photorealistic images just by prompting the AI—telling it what you want, basically—with usually accurate, high-quality text, which has been a problem for most image models up till this point. It also boasts the capacity to adjust existing images in all sorts of ways.Case-in-point, it's possible to use this feature to take a photo of your family on vacation and have it rendered in the style of a Studio Ghibli cartoon; Studio Ghibli being the Japanese animation studio behind legendary films like My Neighbor Totoro, Spirited Away, and Princess Mononoke, among others.This is partly the result of better capabilities by this model, compared to its precursors, but it's also the result of OpenAI loosening its policies to allow folks to prompt these models in this way; previously they disallowed this sort of power, due to copyright concerns. And the implications here are interesting, as this suggests the company is now comfortable showing that their models have been trained on these films, which has all sorts of potential copyright implications, depending on how pending court cases turn out, but also that they're no long being as precious with potential scandals related to how their models are used.It's possible to apply all sorts of distinctive styles to existing images, then, including South Park and the Simpsons, but Studio Ghibli's style has become a meme since this new capability was deployed, and users have applied it to images ranging from existing memes to their own self-portrait avatars, to things like the planes crashing into the Twin Towers on 9/11, JFK's assassination, and famous mass-shootings and other murders.It's also worth noting that the co-founder of Studio Ghibli, Hayao Miyazaki, has called AI-generated artwork “an insult to life itself.” That so many people are using this kind of AI-generated filter on these images is a jarring sort of celebration, then, as the person behind that style probably wouldn't appreciate it; many people are using it because they love the style and the movies in which it was born so much, though. An odd moral quandary that's emerged as a result of these new AI-provided powers.What I'd like to talk about today is another burgeoning controversy within the AI space that's perhaps even larger in implications, and which is landing on an unprepared culture and economy just as rapidly as these new image capabilities and memes.—In February of 2025, the former AI head at Tesla, founding team member at OpenAI, and founder of an impending new, education-focused project called Eureka Labs named Andrej Karpathy coined the term ‘vibe coding' to refer to a trend he's noticed in himself and other developers, people who write code for a living, to develop new projects using code-assistant AI tools in a manner that essentially abstracts away the code, allowing the developer to rely more on vibes in order to get their project out the door, using plain English rather than code or even code-speak.So while a developer would typically need to invest a fair bit of time writing the underlying code for a new app or website or video game, someone who's vibe coding might instead focus on a higher, more meta-level of the project, worrying less about the coding parts, and instead just telling their AI assistant what they want to do. The AI then figures out the nuts and bolts, writes a bunch of code in seconds, and then the vibe coder can tweak the code, or have the AI tweak it for them, as they refine the concept, fix bugs, and get deeper into the nitty-gritty of things, all, again, in plain-spoken English.There are now videos, posted in the usual places, all over YouTube and TikTok and such, where folks—some of whom are coders, some of whom are purely vibe coders, who wouldn't be able to program their way out of a cardboard box—produce entire functioning video games in a matter of minutes.These games typically aren't very good, but they work. And reaching even that level of functionality would previously have taken days or weeks for an experienced, highly trained developer; now it takes mere minutes or moments, and can be achieved by the average, non-trained person, who has a fundamental understanding of how to prompt AI to get what they want from these systems.Ethan Mollick, who writes a fair bit on this subject and who keeps tabs on these sorts of developments in his newsletter, One Useful Thing, documented his attempts to make meaning from a pile of data he had sitting around, and which he hadn't made the time to dig through for meaning. Using plain English he was able to feed all that data to OpenAI's Deep Research model, interact with its findings, and further home in on meaningful directions suggested by the data.He also built a simple game in which he drove a firetruck around a 3D city, trying to put out fires before a competing helicopter could do the same. He spent a total of about $13 in AI token fees to make the game, and he was able to do so despite not having any relevant coding expertise.A guy named Pieter Levels, who's an experienced software engineer, was able to vibe-code a video game, which is a free-to-play, massively multiplayer online flying game, in just a month. Nearly all the code was written by Cursor and Grok 3, the first of which is a code-writing AI system, the latter of which is a ChatGPT-like generalist AI agent, and he's been able to generate something like $100k per month in revenue from this game just 17 days, post-launch.Now an important caveat here is that, first, this game received a lot of publicity, because Levels is a well-known name in this space, and he made this game as part of a ‘Vibe Coding Game Jam,' which is an event focused on exactly this type of AI-augmented programming, in which all of the entrants had to be at least 80% AI generated. But he's also a very skilled programmer and game-maker, so this isn't the sort of outcome the average person could expect from these sorts of tools.That said, it's an interesting case study that suggests a few things about where this category of tools is taking us, even if it's not representative for all programming spaces and would-be programmers.One prediction that's been percolating in this space for years, even before ChatGPT was released, but especially after generative AI tools hit the mainstream, is that many jobs will become redundant, and as a result many people, especially those in positions that are easily and convincingly replicated using such tools, will be fired. Because why would you pay twenty people $100,000 a year to do basic coding work when you can have one person working part-time with AI tools vibe-coding their way to approximately the same outcome?It's a fair question, and it's one that pretty much every industry is asking itself right now. And we've seen some early waves of firings based on this premise, most of which haven't gone great for the firing entity, as they've then had to backtrack and starting hiring to fill those positions again—the software they expected to fill the gaps not quite there yet, and their offerings suffering as a consequence of that gambit.Some are still convinced this is the way things are going, though, including people like Elon Musk, who, as part of his Department of Government Efficiency, or DOGE efforts in the US government, is basically stripping things down to the bare-minimum, in part to weaken agencies he doesn't like, but also, ostensibly at least, to reduce bloat and redundancy, the premise being that a lot of this work can be done by fewer people, and in some cases can be automated entirely using AI-based systems.This was the premise of his mass-firings at Twitter, now X, when he took over, and while there have been a lot of hiccups and issues resulting from that decision, the company is managing to operate, even if less optimally than before, with about 20% the staff it had before he took over—something like 1,500 people compared to 7,500.Now, there are different ways of looking at that outcome, and Musk's activities since that acquisition will probably color some of our perceptions of his ambitions and level of success with that job-culling, as well. But the underlying theory that a company can do even 90% as well as it did before with just a fifth of the workforce is a compelling argument to many people, and that includes folks running governments, but also those in charge of major companies with huge rosters of employees that make up the vast majority of their operating expenses.A major concern about all this, though, is that even if this theory works in broader practice, and all these companies and governments can function well enough with a dramatically reduced staff using AI tools to augment their capabilities and output, we may find ourselves in a situation in which the folks using said tools are more and more commodified—they'll be less specialized and have less education and expertise in the relevant areas, so they can be paid less, basically, the tools doing more and the humans mostly being paid to prompt and manage them. And as a result we may find ourselves in a situation where these people don't know enough to recognize when the AI are doing something wrong or weird, and we may even reach a point where the abstraction is so complete that very few humans even know how this code works, which leaves us increasingly reliant on these tools, but also more vulnerable to problems should they fail at a basic level, at which point there may not be any humans left who are capable of figuring out what went wrong, since all the jobs that would incentivize the acquisition of such knowledge and skill will have long since disappeared.As I mentioned in the intro, these tools are being applied to images, videos, music, and everything else, as well. Which means we could see vibe artists, vibe designers, vibe musicians and vibe filmmakers. All of which is arguably good in the sense that these mediums become more accessible to more people, allowing more voices to communicate in more ways than ever before.But it's also arguably worrying in the sense that more communication might be filtered through the capabilities of these tools—which, by the way, are predicated on previous artists and writers and filmmakers' work, arguably stealing their styles and ideas and regurgitating them, rather than doing anything truly original—and that could lead to less originality in these spaces, but also a similar situation in which people forget how to make their own films, their own art, their own writing; a capability drain that gets worse with each new generation of people who are incentivized to hand those responsibilities off to AI tools; we'll all become AI prompters, rather than all the things we are, currently.This has been the case with many technologies over the years—how many blacksmiths do we have in 2025, after all? And how many people actually hand-code the 1s and 0s that all our coding languages eventually write, for us, after we work at a higher, more human-optimized level of abstraction?But because our existing economies are predicated on a certain type of labor and certain number of people being employed to do said labor, even if those concerns ultimately don't end up being too big a deal, because the benefits are just that much more impactful than the downsides and other incentives to develop these or similar skills and understandings arise, it's possible we could experience a moment, years or decades long, in which the whole of the employment market is disrupted, perhaps quite rapidly, leaving a lot of people without income and thus a lot fewer people who can afford the products and services that are generated more cheaply using these tools.A situation that's ripe with potential for those in a position to take advantage of it, but also a situation that could be devastating to those reliant on the current state of employment and income—which is the vast, vast majority of human beings on the planet.Show Noteshttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/X_Corphttps://devclass.com/2025/03/26/the-paradox-of-vibe-coding-it-works-best-for-those-who-do-not-need-it/https://www.wired.com/story/doge-rebuild-social-security-administration-cobol-benefits/https://www.wired.com/story/anthropic-benevolent-artificial-intelligence/https://arstechnica.com/tech-policy/2025/03/what-could-possibly-go-wrong-doge-to-rapidly-rebuild-social-security-codebase/https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vibe_codinghttps://www.newscientist.com/article/2473993-what-is-vibe-coding-should-you-be-doing-it-and-does-it-matter/https://nmn.gl/blog/dangers-vibe-codinghttps://x.com/karpathy/status/1886192184808149383https://simonwillison.net/2025/Mar/19/vibe-coding/https://arstechnica.com/ai/2025/03/is-vibe-coding-with-ai-gnarly-or-reckless-maybe-some-of-both/https://devclass.com/2025/03/26/the-paradox-of-vibe-coding-it-works-best-for-those-who-do-not-need-it/https://www.creativebloq.com/3d/video-game-design/what-is-vibe-coding-and-is-it-really-the-future-of-app-and-game-developmenthttps://arstechnica.com/ai/2025/03/openais-new-ai-image-generator-is-potent-and-bound-to-provoke/https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Studio_Ghibli This is a public episode.

This week Nathan, Gita, and Riley briefly talk about their true passion, shirts, before elegantly segueing into a conversation about Ubisoft's extremely eventful week: The embattled publisher announced that it's spinning off its most successful series, including Assassin's Creed, Far Cry, and Rainbow Six, into a separate subsidiary thanks to a $1.25 billion investment from Chinese conglomerate Tencent. What does this mean for those remaining aboard the Ubisoft mothership? And will this lead to even more heads rolling following layoffs and studio closures in December? Then we move on to the AI abomination of the week: an image filter based on the works of Studio Ghibli, whose most famous creative, Hayao Miyazaki, once called AI “an insult to life itself.” After that, we give our final appraisal of Severance season two, which was not perfect, but which managed to hit some impressive high notes and benefited from largely focusing on characters over mystery box shenanigans. Gita doesn't love Ben Stiller's directorial style, and Riley doesn't think Severance is necessarily a Smart Show, but those things don't prevent it from being good, if that makes sense. If it doesn't, listen to the episode! Finally, we come up with a simple solution to the problem of mass media illiteracy: change all of society. Seems like something we can knock out in a day or two, so let's get cracking.Credits- Hosts: Nathan Grayson, Gita Jackson, & Riley MacLeod- Podcast Production & Ads: Multitude- Subscribe to Aftermath!About The ShowAftermath Hours is the flagship podcast of Aftermath, a worker-owned, subscription-based website covering video games, the internet, and everything that comes after from journalists who previously worked at Kotaku, Vice, and The Washington Post.

Sjónvarpsþættirnir Adolescence, eða ungdómur, sem sýndir eru á Netflix eru mikið í umræðunni þessa dagana. Þetta eru fjölskyldudrama um stöðu ungra karlmanna í dag, týnda karlmenn sem falla auðveldlega í faðm eitraðra áhrifavalda. Brynja Hjálmsdóttir rýnir í þættina. Við fáum líka sendingu frá Katrínu Helgu Ólafsdóttir, en hún er útsendari Lestarinnar á Heimildamyndahátíðinni Kaupmannahöfn, CPH DOX. Hún fór og sá nýja heimildarmynd um hinn magnaða japanska teiknimyndagerðarmann Hayao Miyazaki. Katrín segir frá myndinni og ævistarfi Miyazaki. Davíð Roach Gunnarsson segir frá nýrri plötu, Reykjavík Syndrome, og útgáfutónleikum Spacestation sem fóru fram í síðustu viku.

Geishas und Maid-Cafés, Samurais und Spielhöllen, Tempel und Schreine – das alles gehört zu Japan. Das Land bezaubert Besucher durch mystische Landschaften und eine märchenhafte Kultur. In den Hama-rikyu-Gärten in Tokio steht eine 300 Jahre alte Kiefer. Wolkenkratzer rahmen einen See ein, aus dem ein Teehaus ragt. „Shioiri-no-ike“, der Name des Sees, bedeutet „Gezeitenteich“. Er ist mit Salzwasser aus der Bucht von Tokyo gefüllt, der Wasserspiegel hebt und senkt sich mit Ebbe und Flut, Wolfsbarsche und Großkopfmeeräschen tummeln sich darin. An den Metrostationen in der größten Stadt der Welt ist es immer voll, aber nie hektisch. Manga-Fans zieht es nach Akihabara, in das Einkaufsviertel für Elektronikwaren und Computerzubehör. Wer Anime von Hayao Miyazaki und Studio Ghibli mag, kann eine riesige Uhr aus dem Film „Das wandernde Schloss“ vor dem Gebäude des Fernsehsenders Nippon TV bestaunen. Zur Entspannung dient ein Bad in einem Sento. Aus Okinawa stammt die Kampfkunst Karate. Zum Kern von Karatedo gehört das „Do“, das in vielen Namen von Sportarten steckt: Aikido, Judo oder Taekwondo. Der Begriff bezeichnet ein Prinzip der Weltanschauung und stammt aus dem japanischen Zen-Buddhismus. Er kann viele Bedeutungen haben, beispielsweise Weg, Grundsatz oder Methode. Das Ziel jedes Karateschülers ist nicht das Erlernen einer Technik, sondern das Erweitern seines Potenzials. Unsere Autorin Isa Hoffinger besucht alte Meister und lernt von ihnen, wie sie sich selbst verteidigen kann. Die Yoshida Brothers sind berühmte Shamisen-Musiker. Ryoichiro Yoshida und Ken´ichi Yoshida wurden auf der nördlichsten japanischen Hauptinsel Hokkaido geboren. Beide begannen bereits im Alter von fünf Jahren, Musik zu machen. Eine Shamisen ist eine Langhalslaute mit drei Saiten. Sie wird mit einem Plektrum gespielt. Die Ursprünge der Shamisen reichen 400 Jahre zurück. Die Yoshida Brothers berichten über ihre Liebe zur Musik und präsentieren einen Song exklusiv für die NDR-Hörer.

Nous revenons sur la création de La Planète Sauvage, premier film d'animation de science-fiction français ! Xavier Kawa-Topor, co-auteur de L'odyssée de La Planète Sauvage analyse ce chef d'oeuvre de René Laloux et Roland Topor. Le premier film d'animation de science-fiction françaisEn 1973, René Laloux et Roland Topor font une révolution. La Planète Sauvage vient de remporter le prix du jury du Festival de Cannes, une première sur la croisière. Ce film d'animation, qui adapte un roman de Stephan Wul, entre dans l'histoire. René Laloux a dû affronter de nombreuses galères pour aller au bout de son long-métrage. Abandon de Roland Topor en cours de tournage, mésentente avec l'équipe technique tchèque, arrivée du printemps de Prague retardant la production du film, coup pendable des services secrets. La Planète Sauvage a été réalisée dans des conditions dantesques. Porté par sa grande créativité visuelle, son ton féroce et son message politique, ce chef d'œuvre de la science-fiction francophone continue toujours d'être aussi marquant et perturbant. Ce projet influencera Hayao Miyazaki ainsi que d'autres maîtres de l'animation. Pour la première fois des réalisateurs indépendants osaient affronter les productions de Walt Disney.

Episode 496: This week we finally get around to reviewing Hayao Miyazaki's latest film The Boy and the Heron. Mahito, haunted by his mother's death during the firebombings of Tokyo during the Pacific War, moves away with his dad to his aunt Natsuko's house in the country, where he encounters a Blue Heron that talks and tells him his mother is still alive.

Chris and Alex return to Japanese anime and Studio Ghibli for this reflection on The Wind Rises (2013), Hayao Miyazaki's then-final animated feature that plots the life of Japanese aeronautical engineer Jiro Horikoshi, and which also offers a quasi-autobiographical tale of Miyazaki's own animated career and the spectacle of his ‘last designs' along the way. Joining in the discussion is very special guest Esther Leslie, who is Professor of Political Aesthetics in the School of Creative Arts, Culture and Communication at Birkbeck. Esther's interests are largely related to political theories of aesthetics and culture and the poetics of science and technology, alongside an interest in expanded forms of animation, with publications that include the influential Hollywood Flatlands, Animation, Critical Theory and the Avant Garde (Verso, 2002). Topics for this episode include the film's reflexive register and status as a commentary on Ghibli animation; Japanese political history, representations of violence, and the plane as a historical figure of beauty; what the film does with its portrayal of fantastical worlds and the certainty of dreams; The Wind Rises' impressionistic visual style and its more ambivalent handling of the modernity/tradition division familiar from Studio Ghibli's earlier work; and how discourses of fatalism allow Miyazaki's film to be secure in showing us what we carry in our head, and how and when we fantasise. **Fantasy/Animation theme tune composed by Francisca Araujo** **As featured on Feedspot's 25 Best London Education Podcasts**

Whether steeped in history or conjured from fantasy, these cinematic castles and palaces have left a lasting impression on audiences.1. The Imperial Palace – The Last Emperor (1987)The Forbidden City in Beijing serves as the breathtaking backdrop for Bernardo Bertolucci's historical masterpiece. Its grandeur reflects the isolation and opulence of the young emperor's life. 2. Hogwarts – Harry Potter Series (2001-2011)A magical castle rather than a traditional palace, but let's be honest—Hogwarts is as grand and majestic as any royal residence.3. The Grand Budapest Hotel – The Grand Budapest Hotel (2014)Though fictional, its lavish design and color palette make it one of the most memorable cinematic palaces. (Ed: is it though?)4. The Castle in the Sky – Castle in the Sky (1986)Studio Ghibli's floating fortress, Laputa, is an awe-inspiring mix of magic, history, and mystery. It serves as both a relic of the past and a symbol of lost power, perfectly embodying the themes of the film.5. The Palace of Agrabah – Aladdin (1992 & 2019)Disney's shimmering golden palace, home to the Sultan and Princess Jasmine, captures the magic and adventure of the Arabian Nights. Its lavish domes and sprawling gardens make it one of the most iconic palaces in animation.Directed by Hayao Miyazaki, Princess Mononoke is an epic that blends mythology, environmental themes, and breathtaking animation into a powerful tale of conflict and coexistence.The story follows Ashitaka, a young prince cursed by a demon after defending his village. Seeking a cure, he embarks on a journey that leads him to a battle between humans, led by the ambitious Lady Eboshi, and the spirits of the forest, including the fierce warrior Princess Mononoke (San).While darker and more mature than some of Ghibli's other films, Princess Mononoke is a masterpiece that older kids and adults can appreciate for its depth and emotional weight.For younger viewers, Sofia the First offers a charming introduction to the world of princesses and magic, wrapped in fun adventures and valuable life lessons.Sofia, an ordinary girl, becomes royalty overnight when her mother marries the king. As she navigates palace life, she learns about kindness, responsibility, and courage—often with the help of magical amulets and familiar Disney princesses.From grand palaces to mystical forests, this episode celebrates the magic and wonder of cinema's most enchanting worlds. So grab your crown, saddle up your wolf, and join us for a royal adventure!

And this is Studio Ghibli's 2001 classic from famed writer-director Hayao Miyazaki. When 10-year-old Chihiro moves with her family to a new neighborhood, a wrong turn sees her trapped in the world of kami, the spirits of Japanese Shinto folklore. Raking in almost $400 million in coin, the film stood as the highest-grossing film in Japan for almost 20 years. Widely regarded as one of the best films ever made, animated or otherwise, it became the first hand-drawn, Japanese anime and non-English-language animated film to win the Academy Award for Best Animated Feature at the 75th Academy Awards. It also received North American distribution from Disney at the urging of Pixar's John Lasseter, who worked on the English dub, raising its profile with audiences stateside and introducing us to Soot Sprites, No-Face, and Haku the Dragon.
