A chatGPT/Forever Voices/Midjourney horror story

 A chatGPT/Forever Voices/Midjourney horror story:

 

  1. Used Midjourney to create numerous sassy pictures, all of one woman.
  2. Create a good backstory, thanks to ChatGPT.
  3. Create a virtual persona, “Her” (movie from 2013) or "S1mone" (2003 movie) style, by prompt-engineering some boundaries in chatGPT.
  4. Give her a soul rattling sweet voice by paying a nubile teen to “lend” her voice to your project. Use Forever Voices to clone this voice.
  5. Let lonely guys chat with her for $1 per minute. To keep them satisfied, the AI model sends the man one of the photos sporadically.
  6. $$$ rains in.
  7. These men had little self-worth and self-esteem. They now sink to new lows, by paying not for the attention of a real person but something even lower.
  8. Guy now feels even worse than before. 

How wins in this scenario?

 

Nobody: 

  • Men are worse off because their self-esteem and that of their peers goes down the drain. A quick-fix can be easily found, instead of putting time and effort into the hard work of working on yourself: your manners and grooming and real social skills. 
  • Women have now even more socially awkward men around. Moreover, these men now want to put in even less effort because a cute chick can be “had" for only $1 a day/week. Additionally, they are pressured even more into being even prettier because the competition is now a “perfect” Midjourney puppet.

 

None of this is impossible today, and in fact, it is already happening. Read about CarynAI here: https://nypost.com/2023/05/16/i-went-on-a-date-with-chatgpts-carynai/.

Curious Refuge on Twitter: "We made a #StarWars trailer in the style of #wesanderson hope you guys enjoy it!



Midjourney for the images, chatgpt for the script (maybe also the MJ prompts), elevenlabs for the voiceover, after effects for those neat, minmal animations, some D-ID for facial movements.
Did I forgot something?
Human directing, editing and sparkling ideas, of course!!
