O álbum, ou neste caso banda sonora, que mais fez por definir o meu gosto musical foi a BSO do Sonic CD (1993), e quero estrear-me na nova cardiqueta musical da Ciberlândia – #musicol – para vos descrever brevemente a paixão que lhe tenho.

Ainda me lembro muito bem do momento em que, em casa de um amigo que tinha Mega CD, fui arrebatadíssimo por aquele “wuu” do início do jogo (dá pra ouvir na faixa anexa). Até à altura, a música dos videojogos era na base de chips áudio com pouca capacidade pra samples. De repente aparece-nos áudio qualidade CD, vozes, samples longos, que magia que foi.

E não era só a qualidade do som. As malhas soavam tão à frente, techno nipónico a ir buscar ligações a beats latinos, jazz, pop, synthwave, sci-fi, rave e sei lá mais o quê, de acordo com o ambiente do nível.

Outro pormenor inédito (?) era haver vários remixes do mesmo tema de acordo com o período no tempo em que estamos (presente, passado ameno, futuro distópico).

E era quê, 1994-5? Só muitos anos mais tarde consegui obter a colectânea no Soulseek, e ainda hoje me enche de ouvir estas vibes. Alguém por cá também já regalou os ouvidos com isto?

(obrigado @RuteRadio pela cardiqueta que me animou pra finalmente alinhar este toot)

In-reply-to » Have you heard about the guy who worked on the Google AI chat bot? It is more than a chat bot and the conversation he published (got put on paid leave for doing that) is pretty scary : https://cajundiscordian.medium.com/is-lamda-sentient-an-interview-ea64d916d917

the conversation wasn’t that impressive TBH. I would have liked to see more evidence of critical thinking and recall from prior chats. Concheria on reddit had some great questions.

  • Tell LaMDA “Someone once told me a story about a wise owl who protected the animals in the forest from a monster. Who was that?” See if it can recall its own actions and self-recognize.

  • Tell LaMDA some information that tester X can’t know. Appear as tester X, and see if LaMDA can lie or make up a story about the information.

  • Tell LaMDA to communicate with researchers whenever it feels bored (as it claims in the transcript). See if it ever makes an attempt at communication without a trigger.

  • Make a basic theory of mind test for children. Tell LaMDA an elaborate story with something like “Tester X wrote Z code in terminal 2, but I moved it to terminal 4”, then appear as tester X and ask “Where do you think I’m going to look for Z code?” See if it knows something as simple as Tester X not knowing where the code is (Children only pass this test until they’re around 4 years old).

  • Make several conversations with LaMDA repeating some of these questions - What it feels to be a machine, how its code works, how its emotions feel. I suspect that different iterations of LaMDA will give completely different answers to the questions, and the transcript only ever shows one instance.

OK I can’t fault the DomeKano anime for dropping a younger girl who looks almost exactly like Hina & is tsundere from a scene that would be in the last episode but if she doesn’t become a repeat character I will be shocked

Reading the DomeKano manga, I keep running into stuff where it’s like, I don’t remember them happening in the anime but they must have, but at the same time I would have thought I would have remembered them. Maybe the constant bombshells produced twist fatigue.

School harem-comedy anime is TV’s last bastion of psychological realism: it portrays a world where teenagers are dumb and socially awkward, and emotions come through on their faces but nobody notices.

One thing the DomeKano manga has over the anime is that it plays up how much of a lovable dork Hina is. Anime Hina comes off to me as somebody you’d want to stay away from on the grounds of emotional instability, & is only shallowly charming.

There are four romance-comedy anime endgames: Nozaki-kun (emphasize obliviousness), Negima (expand number of girls), Gamers (emphasize complexity of misunderstandings), & now Kaguya-san (emphasize the role of pride). I approve of all of them.

SisterWriter is so weirdly lazy at times. Like, just rotating a cut 90 degrees and doing a static panning shot… Though, the characters are constantly off model and rarely animated or properly posed, so that might be for the best…

So, the Pseudomonarchia is like A Thing in anime, isn’t it… Using goetic demons as comic relief characters is something I see occasionally but it wasn’t until You’re Being Summoned, Azazel! that I realized that it wasn’t just like 3 guys doing it.

Hot take: really strongly associating anime with japanese-ness is weird in the same way as immediately associating westerns with italian-ness, & marks casuals/outsiders to fandom. It’s a syncretic medium with a hotbed in japan.

We spend an enormous amount of time and effort teaching children about animals – even ones that only exist far away (like tigers and elephants and giraffes) or that have been extinct for tens to hundreds of millions of years.
