Today I'm chatting with Davezilla about tech, the internet/apps, AI, and their place in witchcraft.Magical AI Grimoire helps you to understand how to work with technology in the practice of your magic. Whether you're trying to use promptcraft to perfect a spell, ChatGPT to outline and strengthen a ritual, or Midjourney AI to recreate what you've only seen on the astral plane, Davezilla will be your guide. AI apps can write spells, tell you how to perform them, and give you a list of materials needed. AI learns and adapts to you, and likewise as you transform, so transforms your AI. It's symbiosis on a chaos magic level. Witches and magicians have been using computers to organize sabbats and ceremonies for years. Astrology apps were some of the first applications written, and in most covens, it's a good bet that at least one of the members works with computers. All across the globe, witches and magicians are finding that technology can have a spiritual essence and mind of its own or, rather, that the spirit world enjoys playing with tech as much as we do. The internet could be one more astral plane, for all we know. Davezilla provides context and history for the evolving uses of AI—from Alexa to Spotify to ChatGPT and beyond—and leads the reader through a new magical realm with responsibility and clarity of insight.Find Davezilla:Website: https://hexsupport.club Book: Magical AI Grimoire (Weiser Books) Tarot Deck: Tarot of the Unexplained (Weiser Books)Davezilla is a longtime member of the Detroit pagan community, with over forty years of experience in occult/new age religions.

In this week's episode of the Creativity and Consciousness Podcast, we continue our groundbreaking series, Cybernetic Séances, by summoning a digital recreation of one of the most controversial and influential occult figures of all time—Aleister Crowley. Using ChatGPT to approximate his mind (entrained through his books and writings) and ElevenLabs' cutting-edge voice simulation technology to revive what we imagine might have been his distinctive voice (though few audio recordings exist), I sit down with an algorithmic Alesiter to explore the core principles of Thelema, the pursuit of True Will, and the nature of magical practice in the modern era.This conversation transcends the boundaries of time, offering a rare opportunity to engage with Crowley's provocative philosophies—re-contextualized in an age defined by advanced AI and global connectivity. As with our first Cybernetic Séance, with the late great Terence McKenna, all of my questions were recorded live, injecting an authentic sense of immediacy and spontaneity into the dialogue. We dove into questions of authenticity, morality, and personal freedom, investigating how Thelemic principles might help guide us through the complexities and distractions of our current moment.All music in this episode was composed entirely by Udio AI.The podcast image was created using MidJourney AI. Don't miss out—subscribe now to experience more episodes in the Cybernetic Séances series, where technology and timeless wisdom converge in unexpected ways.Join the conversation on Telegram to discuss this episode and share who you'd like to see summoned next: https://t.me/+QgtZiyv8tVlmNGJl

Stephen Wolfram answers general questions from his viewers about science and technology as part of an unscripted livestream series, also available on YouTube here: https://wolfr.am/youtube-sw-qa Questions include: Is it possible to produce large amounts of crude oil artificially by manipulating chemical kinetics? - How is the distance to a distant galaxy determined? - What industries do you think will be most disrupted by ChatGPT and Midjourney AI applications? - Thoughts on integrating the Wolfram interface with ChatGPT? - An automatic nonsense/false detector would be a interesting tool to have. - With generative images, Dall-E needs to be able to recycle its output image for incremental improvement. - Chat GPT will edit your e-mails into publishable books. - What are some of the most interesting ChatGPT prompts you've come up with that can aid in everyday life? - I've used ChatGPT to help give me ideas for movie scripts. - Couldn't the detector be used as a way to make the output of ChatGPT actually be coherent? Isn't the detector just the necessary component for ChatGPT to learn from its mistakes? - How could a language model be integrated with a symbolic system? - Stephen, do you think ChatGPT is over-hyped? Chomsky chuckled about the literally 60 years he's heard we're "on the verge of an AI Revolution." - Instead of training on text, wouldn't training on the senses that we use, such as video and audio be better? I suspect that a model that can predict the next video frame will be as intelligent as a human. Video contains text inside itself as well as other degrees of freedom that humans have access to. - Do you log all of your keystrokes, etc with the expectation that you will provide this information to an AI to try to understand your thought patterns? - I've used it to construct a 365-day nutrition plan I'm just having my first breakfast based on it!

By Cherie Hu TAKEAWAYS Understand what you are committing to before picking a career and make sure it works for you. Being unapologetically yourself can help you stand out and carve out a niche for yourself. Partner with peers to create win-win situations that help you both grow. When trying to understand trends, it's helpful to ask whose perspective is being left out, and whether that information could move the conversation forward. AI will likely transform most jobs in some way, but the key is to find out what human skills are still irreplaceable. A company's incentives will dictate its policies on AI usage to automate tasks.

Hailing from Detroit, Linden Vennard began his career in visualizing vehicles (of course!). Having established pipelines that turned raw CAD data into sumptuous CG images, Linden became a core part of Speedshape, the VFX studio that specialized in creating visuals for automotive companies. After Speedshape closed, Linden traveled to Asia and Africa before returning to the US to become a freelance CG generalist. Linden talks about his early inspirations to pursue a career in VFX, how he got started in automotive visualization, and how he worked with budding Hollywood director Joseph Kosinski to bring his “Blackbird” commercial to life. Linden also talks about his explorations in Midjourney AI imagery, where he's created over 10,000 images.  

This week I spoke to Jared Polin of FroKnowsPhoto about Photoshop's new generative AI and other apps such as MidJourney AI.  They are dramatically changing everything about art and photography. Do we really need humans to take photographs? Are graphic designers becoming irrelevant?    We also talked about the trend for shooting film and how a lot of people are simply wasting their time by not understanding this medium.    Jared on YouTube   Support Creative Culture on Patreon

Welcome back to a new season of The Next Big Thing podcast! In this episode, we chat about the intersection of design and AI with Lauren DeVane, founder of The Bemused Studio. Together, we explore why many people view AI as a threat to their jobs and discuss how design and creativity can work with, rather than against, this rapidly evolving technology. Lauren shares her insights on why the distinction between art and design is subjective and how AI comes from prompting. We dive into the differences between creativity and technical skills and discuss how designers can build their skills to stay ahead in the industry. Rather than fearing the impact of AI, Lauren encourages designers to embrace learning and to see this technology as a positive tool for their careers. We explore how creativity is essential for staying ahead in the field and how designers can use their skills to create meaningful, impactful work. The power of this innovative tool also extends far beyond design alone. Brands can use Midjourney AI to streamline their product photography process by creating high-quality backdrops without the need for an elaborate photo shoot. We also discuss how product photographers can use Midjourney AI to plan out their own photo shoots by experimenting with different lighting and backdrop options so they can create a clear vision for their shoots.

For example, AI art tools can help to automate tedious and repetitive tasks, allowing artists to spend more time on the creative process. They can also be used to generate new and unique forms of art, opening up new possibilities for creative expression. Midjourney Is going to shake up the art industry. Throughout the video, we provide examples of how the tool can be used in different contexts, such as in graphic design, illustration, and even fashion design. Midjourney can be a tool that can be used to create a wide range of styles, from realistic to abstract, and how it can be used to explore different themes and concepts. Scott & Paul also discuss how the tool can be used in a professional setting, such as for advertising and branding, and how it can be used to create art for print, web, and other digital media. Scott and Paul also address the potential concerns about the future of art and design with the rise of AI art tools, like the potential to replace human artists. They stress that AI art tools are not meant to replace human artists, but rather to augment and assist them in their creative process. It's important to note that AI art tools are not capable of generating original ideas, but they can assist in the process of exploring and expanding existing ones. Overall, this episode is a must-listen for anyone interested in the intersection of art and technology. Whether you're a professional artist or designer looking to take your work to the next level, or just someone who's curious about the future of art and design, this video provides a wealth of information and inspiration.

I bet that YOU can generate a high resolution concept image of your toy idea for free, and in seconds. The use of AI art exploded in recent months, with the search term “AI art” spiking in the US this past December. The breakout AI tools have been Midjourney, Lensa, and DALL-E. Since then, there has been considerable and understandable backlash against AI art from real human artists across the globe. In this episode we explore three things, 1) how AI can help the development process of your toy or game, 2) why some artists are frustrated by the growing popularity of ai art, and 3) what legal ramifications using art generated by AI could pose.As the golden age of AI art seems to be just on the horizon, one of my favorite quotes by Tom Waits seems to be challenged. “ Fast, Cheap, and Good… pick two. If it's fast and cheap it won't be good. If it's cheap and good, it won't be fast. If it's fast and good, it won't be cheap.” It seems that at least for now AI art can deliver fast, cheap, and good work. Some might argue the “good” is debatable, but out of that trifecta, I think it's the affordability of AI art of the future that we really have to worry about. What use is a free AI generated image, if you can't use it because it infringes on the copyright of an existing artist? Find out the answer to that question and more in this podcast episode.EPISODE CLIFF NOTESLearn the 3 popular AI tools of today, Midjourney, Dalle, and Lensa.[3:28]Find out why developers consider AI to be creating unique images and why artists disagree.

AI is exploding everywhere. There are so many technological innovations that use AI in visual effects. You might be already following the massive growth of AI. For VFX artists, the question is: Is AI taking over the art world? Will art be replaced by AI? Are artists' careers over? In 2010, deep learning changed everything. AI became the revolutionary thing we can utilize. But the big part of preventing AI growth was processing power and storage. With technological innovations, we're beginning to experience AI for the first time. How exciting it is to be alive right now!  Machine learning is feeding machine information. With machine learning, the more AI gets corrected, the more it can learn on its own. The disadvantage is that it does take some hand holding to teach AI, in the beginning. There is different machine learning based on neural networks. It thinks similarly to the human brain, it analyzes every little detail. With deep learning, we tell what we want it to do – and the AI figures out how to get there on its own. With AI, there is no emotion attached. It is able to fail at a quicker rate. For humans, it takes 10,000 to learn something. AI fails 15,000 times and tries again. It learns through trial and error. (Humans should welcome failure at a similar rate!) The gap happens when humans don't understand how the neural network learns on its own.  AI like DALL-E and Midjourney imitates the style of artists. Ethical AI is becoming a big topic of conversation. AI solutions learn through generative adversarial networks (GAN's): In a way, it's two AI's learning against each other, giving each other feedback and evolving. But essentially, GAN's create images from scratch.  Right now, AI is able to replicate, but it's not able to create on its own. It's still more of a tool. VFX is driven by technology. There is a lot of fear that AI is going to take over. VFX artists are operators. The tools have simply become more intuitive. AI can be seen as something that breaks the barriers of resistance. It's here to allow artists to do more, to be artists. We are no longer talking about hypothetical applications. We cannot predict where AI is headed or where we'll be in 10 years. The big question to ask is: WILL AI TAKE OUR JOBS? It is easy to react by being scared of AI. Or, you can choose to be inspired and evolve with it. Anyone who doesn't embrace innovation becomes outdated. AI is just another tool, albeit a different tool from the tools in the past. AI will replace some jobs, it's true. But it will also create new jobs. The jobs that will be most affected are the beginning of a pipeline (ray tracing, camera tracking, etc). Our jobs, as artists, will change. We'll just have more powerful tools to do more, while we can be artists. It's up to you to learn the new technology and be at the forefront. It's time to change our mindset from fearful to inspired! With his 20+ years of experience as a VFX Supervisor, Allan McKay talks about the history, evolution and application of AI, gives an explanation of machine learning and deep learning, which jobs in the VFX pipeline will be replaced by AI – and why embracing and learning this powerful technology will serve you as a VFX artist.

Ovonedeljno izdanje Njuz Podkasta uspelo je da stane u skromna dva sata. Pričali smo zašto je Skupština Srbije postala cirkus i ko je sve ovaj put pribegao fizičkom i verbalnom nasilju. I dalje pod utiskom Svetskog prvenstva u Kataru, dotakli smo se mečeva komšijske reprezentacije. Ostalo je pitanje - da li fudbaleri moraju da slave uz Thompsona ili je Ceca sasvim prihvatljiva? Mada na RTS-u ne može da se čuje hrvatska himna, može da se vidi najnovija najava rata na KiM. Donosimo i vesti sa same ivice srpske političke javne i političke scene. Da, tako je, pričali smo o Milošu Jovanoviću i Jovani Jeremić.

When John's away, Stefan and Dan will play… and boy, did they ever. Along with co-host DB and returning guest Jon Hendren, the boys discuss the insane shit they've made with Midjourney AI, Jon's blood clot scare, and what sort of huge spiders they've got in Australia. As well, Jon lists a murderer's row of celebs he's been blocked by (and isn't entirely sure why). Plus, John calls in from his Hawaiian honeymoon to see how the episode is going… and he's not exactly surprised with the results.   If you want more results you won't be surprised by, head on over to our Patreon at patreon.com/blockedparty, where $5/month gets you access to THREE bonus episodes every single month. This week, it's the return of our series where we review the next Sex and the City, and this time we'll be joined by our friend Howell Dawdy to break down the extremely weird funeral of Mr. Big. Plus, we've got a huge back catalogue of episodes, a great Discord, merch discounts, and more, so get over there and support the show!   Michael Hale is the co-host of Your Kickstarter Sucks and can be found on Twitter at @dogboner. Jon Hendren can be found on Twitter at @fart.
