The average human is so fucking stupid.
Yah, stop that, it is gross!
The reduced friction to create something enables this sort of mindless interaction.
“You are taking in the Human Centipede of content, and from the very very end of the line, all while the folks at the front laugh and laugh, consume and consume.”
That should end any discussion of AI forever and ever amen!
Damn… yes. I didn’t want to read the article but you convinced me, thanks for quoting that bit.
Jesus, I can’t even go back and watch any of his stuff to this day.
Why not? He may have moved on to his next life, but his work persists. All the recorded kind, hilarious, creative things he wrote and performed… He would still want us to enjoy them, right? And I personally think that still continues to improve the world, even with him no longer in it…
I formed a pretty intense attachment to him the moment he first appeared on Happy Days.
I wasn’t a fanboy for life or anything. He just had an ability to convince me he was genuinely a beautiful human being.
I had watched reruns of Mork & Mindy when I was little, but didn’t know that it was a spinoff from Happy Days. This nugget led me to watching this, and it was amazing. Thanks.
I learned the phrase spinoff from that happening. I guess I started to love comedians because of all that too. Refuge from the 70s for a 9 year old, I guess.
The one I loved the most is now the hardest to watch as it deals with suicide. :(
To add more layers to this, my roommates worked on this set. They took me to see it out on Treasure Island one crazy night. Williams had it stipulated he’d work on Bay Area productions by that point. By all accounts, he was decent in real life. One of my roommates was arty-er than the other one and continued to pick up art department gigs on Robin’s features and he always praised him for being a good guy. Loads of folks would dogpile onto these testimonies throughout the Bay Area.
If you do this, in any context, I hate you and want you to suffer. This is actually braindead, deplorable behavior.
About as respectful to the deceased as desecrating the corpse.
The thing I find especially stupid about this is that there are so many hundreds hours of footage of actual Robin Williams out there already. Why would you want to fake more?
And why would they be sending them to his daughter?
Why the fuck are people so goddamn creepy?
I imagine they’re expecting some beautiful moment where she messages back “Thank you for allowing me to see my dad again! This is so beautiful and you’re a saint for doing this for me!”
An astounding amount of people are incapable of processing context. And are likely just layering vaguely similar events of people appreciating artistic renditions of the deceased without understanding how profoundly they screwed the pooch.
Gross indeed
Fuck AIEven if it wasn’t AI, sending someone a lifelike representation of a loved one who’s passed, doing things they never did is really creepy.
You’re in the right community! Welcome!
I kinda get why people might want to make some AI vids of the dude, but why in the blue fuck are you sending them to his fucking daughter??? “Gross” isnt the word Id use. Id think of something a lot more NSFW for that particular gaggle of cave brained cunts.
There is a non-zero percentage of people doing this that literally believe they are talking to Robin reincarnated as an AI, and just rationalize “if my dad came back to life I’d want to hear from him.”
I want off this ride please.
Like, I’m not even going to ask you for proof because I believe it as is.
The world is so messed up and people are so hatshit insane this is not even such an unreasonable explanation
We stan Zelda Williams, any creep who does this to her gets the wall
What the kind of moral imbecile thinks sending someone an AI-generated version of her own father is a good thing?
Oh. Sloppers. Yes. Of course. They already left their morals by the door to even use the plagiarism parrots.
Seriously. Yes.
I have no idea why anyone would do this.
Because some people actually think that interacting with ai recreations of your loved ones is a good way to cope with their loss.
Like some people lost their shit, when GPT4 was released, because it killed their significant other.
That is positively ghoulish.
There are very sick people interacting with ai as if it’s god. The problem goes deeper than slop
Who would think that would be appreciated?
People who suck at being human.
Streisand effect may play against her, unfortunately
Sometimes I wish we just called it people being assholes instead of TSE.
The Streisand Effect itself isn’t inherently good or bad, and being an asshole doesn’t really have anything to do with it.
That’s not how the Streisand Effect works.
would’ve been more useful if you described why, pretty sure could’ve be achieved with a short phrase
Zelda is not trying to keep people from knowing about something. She’s telling them that what they’re already doing sucks. If people decide to troll and do it more, it’s not the Streisand Effect, it’s just them being assholes.

That’s not really that effect, but more of a stalker problem. Why would anyone think she wants to see video of her dad saying things he didn’t say? And guaranteed that the comedy being done is nowhere near his level.
Why would anyone think she wants to see video of her dad saying things he didn’t say?
some people did, they are trolls with bad taste, now more of them will be aware of this target, thus the Streisand effect may occur, but i hope to be wrong
Robin Williams was a comedic giant with shoes no AI could ever hope to fill.
Getting AI of him would be like wanting name brand Nutella, and then going to Family Dollar, only to find a knock off brand, but then finding out Family Dollar doesn’t even stock the knock off brand. They only have the Ali Express version of the knock off brand.
I think I’d rather just watch Mork and Mindy with the real Robin Williams.
She has a point, jeeze respect the woman’s boundaries
Even suicide won’t get you away from this hell.
