About this video essay: We've all felt it: the movies have changed. But how so exactly, and why? And what can be done about it? In this extensive critique, I try to capture the decline of modern cinema in one unifying theory.

On May 30, a research organization called the Center for AI Safety released a 22-word statement signed by a number of prominent "AI scientists," including Sam Altman, the CEO of OpenAI; Demis Hassabis, the CEO of Google DeepMind; and Geoffrey Hinton, who has been described as the "godfather" of AI.

In the eleventh century, St. Anselm of Canterbury proposed an argument for the existence of God that went roughly like this: God is, by definition, the greatest being that we can imagine; a God that doesn’t exist is clearly not as great as a God that does exist; ergo, God must exist.

<![CDATA[What is your favorite story-breaking glitch or exploit?]]> https://www.reddit.com/r/speedrun/comments/cesf05/what_is_your_favorite_storybreaking_glitch_or/

Explanation: I'm an academic researching glitches in videogames, and what fascinates me most is how glitches—often ones discovered by speedrunners, though not always ones that speed up runs—completely destroy the stories the games are trying to tell. Characters get chopped and changed, plot sequences get broken, settings get demolished, even space and time get bent around the exploits and accidents of the game's programming going wrong. Some examples: 1) Using the FF6 "airship glitch", you can break sequence to do things like moving from the World of Ruin back to the World of Balance, making Terra become her own father, or taking General Leo to visit his own grave. 2) In the Pokemon Reverse Badge Order runs, the player essentially warps space and time to pull the various gym leaders to him, beat them soundly, and then dismiss them again. That's no longer the story of a young hero on a personal-development quest, it's now about a young god screwing with people. 3) Stretching the definition of glitch a bit, but I think definitely not something intended by the developers: the Any% for Two Worlds where the main villain is killed within the game's first two minutes by aggro'ed townsfolk and the game takes that as its cue to end. Glad to clarify further but that should give the general gist of it. I'd love to know your own favorite examples of stories getting broken. (And if I end up using it anywhere in the book or articles I'm writing, I'll be sure to cite you there.) submitted by /u/epikt to r/speedrun [link] [comments]

<![CDATA[TIMELAPSE OF THE FUTURE: A Journey to the End of Time (4K)]]> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uD4izuDMUQA

Support my work on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/melodysheep | Get the soundtrack: https://bit.ly/2HKl9fi | How's it all gonna end? This experience takes us on a journey to the end of time, trillions of years into the future, to discover what the fate of our planet and our universe may ultimately be.

We start in 2019 and travel exponentially through time, witnessing the future of Earth, the death of the sun, the end of all stars, proton decay, zombie galaxies, possible future civilizations, exploding black holes, the effects of dark energy, alternate universes, the final fate of the cosmos - to name a few.

This is a picture of the future as painted by modern science - a picture that will surely evolve over time as we dig for more clues to how our story will unfold. Much of the science is very recent - and new puzzle pieces are still waiting to be found.

To me, this overhead view of time gives a profound perspective - that we are living inside the hot flash of the Big Bang, the perfect moment to soak in the sights and sounds of a universe in its glory days, before it all fades away. Although the end will eventually come, we have a practical infinity of time to play with if we play our cards right. The future may look bleak, but we have enormous potential as a species.

Featuring the voices of David Attenborough, Craig Childs, Brian Cox, Neil deGrasse Tyson, Michelle Thaller, Lawrence Krauss, Michio Kaku, Mike Rowe, Phil Plait, Janna Levin, Stephen Hawking, Sean Carroll, Alex Filippenko, and Martin Rees.
