Sorry ignore my last post. I got confused. I thought you mentioned another of my poem. But that was another person. Yes, you are right. That video was my first attempt at video generation when Grok had a sort free period the very first days. I played around. But there is a lot of editing, for each segment it generated was 4 sec, and i had to do many things to patch it up. I also had to regenerate several segments many times. And you have to do this in voice synthesis also.
Deleted by me.
No, it is not. The BBC uses more Ai than i do. There are also shows on historical music like sea shanties, and even canadian lumberjack songs, from the 1960s. I am a huge fan of folk and traditional music, you see.
It isn’t the youtube channel i am refering to, it is the educational radio stream, which consists of almost a thousand shows? Of which only a few are AI. There are shows on Reagan and on Marx, there are interviews with VS Naipul, George Bernard Shaw, Yale professors, drama, anncient chinese crime fiction (gong’an), seventeenth century scifi (Cyrano de bergerac), combinations of poetry and jazz and blues, Bessy Smith. slave narratives by real interviews that have been restored, interviews with arthur schleshinger, readings by james joyce, real audio of arthur conan doyle, kipling, dramatizations of historical battles, kalidasa, tagore, the canadian boarding schools system, E. Pauline Johnson, Sitting Bull, ancient Cameroonian and Iriquios legends, programs on the House of Wisdom in ancient Baghdad, Avicenna, and the Songhay empire. I have one dramatization of a classic Japanese writer who speculates about a solution to a real, but mysterious passage in the West African chronicles about the final fate of Abu Bakr II, who was lost at sea trying to cross the Atlantic. etc etc.
Well, not everything. There is some Ai, but it is tagged. So you can check what is AI. Sometimes AI generated stuff, meaning voice synthesis, is only partly used. It may be that I need a dialect or a woman to say something. And then AI is used. I can also tell you that the BBC announcer on radio is also AI. They use Ai in the BBC more than i do.
There are actually some countries in the world that are not too fond of churchill. The Irish thought he bullied them and was too violent. Some of the workers who striked during his tenure as minister, and also the indians, who hold him responsible for that awful famine.
Isn’t Oxford a particularly well-endowed university?
In France they have a separate company that verifies the age, and when you then visit your eccentric and embarrassing porn site, they verify the age, but provide no further info.
I agree with this, but not because I intend to boycott american products, i just dont think that consumers benefit when there are very few choices. Some people want only ONE BRAND of cornflakes, and I dont think it is right. This was my view long before Trump
There is this fantastic nineteenth century tech that i came across, which i think could be improved upon by using lightweight modern carbon stuff, like in a bicycle. It is a laundery wringer. You attatch them to a bucket, and then you place your wet laundery in them and use a crank. It must be of such length that the process does not become toilsome. It removes 95% of all water. Then they hung up the laundery in those days when they were in use, and they dried much quicker. If mass produced, students could just have one under the bed, and fetch it when needed. The problem is that those i see are too expensive and in steel, which means heavy and cumbersome. If Musk could ditch this pointless and overly expensive migration plan to Mars, he could solve this high-tech issue and have them sold at low cost to students?
As permanent draught takes hold of the American Midwest, it will affect agricultural output there, and the Ukraine war will also affect food production. So, Canada might produce more food, if temperatures rise? Isn’t it natural to assume that what is now grown farther south, in a future of elevated temperatures, might grow well in the north?
Let me tell you a thing that is not often mentioned, which I think contributed to the rise of the American right we see today. In the us, unlike in Europe where freedom was economically tied to the rise of lower classes in their struggle against landowners and aristocracy, the notion of freedom implied a freedom from the norms of the majority. This is the old “frontier myth”. Then the prairie was settled, but that myth was entrenched. Then the internet came and opened up an unlimited and unregulated space for these cults and alternative views, and since the technological dynamics constantly drives everyone away from pain and towards pleasure, that is confirmation of existing beliefs, the “echo chambers” mushroomed. Because of historical baggage, the US was predisposed towards eccentricity, in a way. On top of this comes the fact that Congress has always had a very very low approval rating. It is epitomized by the representatives who read the phone book out loud, or filibuster, from the podium in order to sabotage the passing of legislation. At salaries paid by the taxpayer!! Then there is the annual shutdown ritual over the raising of the debt ceiling, which could have been avoided by switching from absolute numbers to a percentage of GDP. But it is a ritual, like the knocking on the door of the British parliament. So they keep it. But it adds an impression that they do nothing, that everything is jammed and that no representatives from different parties ever talk to each other over coffee, and that “hate” remains even after the cameras are off.

No, it is not Darwinism, for in his The Dsecent of Man from the 1870s Darwin extended natural selection to include emotions; it is the individuals who are to reproduce that transmit their genes to the next generation. And the process of dating does not proceed by rape. Then there is a debate concerning “group selection”, and whether there is a selective mechanism at that level. Then it shifts a little back and forth, with inheritance of acquired characteristics (Lamarckism) making an occasional comeback until the modern synthesis between Darwin and Mendel in the 1930. But these days, horizontal gene transfer and several other mechanisms continue to blur the image a little. And Gould’s old calculations that made directed evolution improbable have also been challenged in computer models, and where they have landed, I do not actually know, since it has been some years since I even thought about this subject. What you are talking about is probably Herbert Spencer, who by some weird coincidence (or perhaps it was intended?), is buried next to his ideological opposite, Karl Marx, in a London cemetery. It is from Spencer that many such things have emerged. His influence upon the robber barons and the shaping of the American right was considerable.

What was she doing there?
If you live your life waiting for confirmation from others you always be disappointed. However, if you live to annoy others…
These are actual letters sent to and from Hoover, not fiction. And the subject is politics in 1963. James Baldwin and the others.
Some day, when you grow up, you too will see naked adult women. In the meantime, you can do research online…I recommend pubmed, base and core, as well as anatomical atlas.
But remember i run a radio station, not tv station. I made that only for youtube. Also, i wished to learn what it was.
