AI is disrupting music as well, I have been creating many new tracks using the new alpha version 3 of Suno One of the tracks came out just great, although it’s a rather grim song about the future being a digital wasteland due to our technology addiction. I have decided to do a full music…

More AI Video and Music Experiments
I have been trying out several AI video generators for the past few months and even made a trailer for the YouVille movie using Pika a while back. The one that has so far shown the best results and seems to have been dominating the scene is Runway with its Gen-1 video-to-video and Gen-2 text/image-to-video…

A Year with AI: Reflections on the Future
Exactly one year ago, my book, ‘Blueberry & the Bear and Other Stories,’ made its debut. It holds the distinction of being the world’s first collection of bedtime stories authored using ChatGPT, with illustrations generated by Dall-E2.

A prompt for GPT-4 powered debate teams
Here’s a prompt I made for getting ChatGPT (GPT-4) to run debates (for/against) on different topics on the model of university debate teams. The topic used as an example is “risks and benefits of artificial intelligence” but I have gotten good results with topics such as “gun control” and “drinking alcohol”. You can read the…

Poet-GPT – A.I. writing Shakespearian Sonnets on autoplay
As an English major, Shakespearian sonnets have been my favorite form when writing poems for quite a few years back in the early 2000s. So no wonder I am mixing things up again at the intersection of human creativity and artificial intelligence. For this experiment, I used Auto-GPT with OpenAI API and Pinecone for the…

XM45: An A.I. audio tribute to X Minus One and Luis van Rooten
The second story in my book “Blueberry & the Bear and Other Stories” is called The Spirit of XM45. It’s a short story about how the spirit of Christmas finds a way to reach a lonely engineer on a remote planet. It’s also my (hopefully) funny attempt at creating a sci-fi Christmas-themed story with leetspeak…
