Takashi's personal blog。Not just about paintings、What I think about every day、what you feel、I write whatever comes to mind。This blog is the third generation。From the beginning, it has been over 20 years.。 2023From January 1st、For now, I decided to just write on odd numbered days.。I'm going to think about my future direction and other things piece by piece.。

I feel like I can't say anything

5Uploaded on the morning of August 8th。

I made this video using half of the holidays.。I also made one more、Except for going to the National Art Center in Roppongi to see the national exhibition.、I spent all my holidays editing videos.。The new work on Tempera No. 6, which is currently in production, has stopped midway through.。Still uploading after the holidays。

Nowadays, complete video production using AI alone has begun.。You don't even need a camera to make a video。Turn your smartphone into a camera? not、No camera at all。Since you don't need a camera, you don't need any other photography equipment or techniques.。No video editing software is required, so editing skills and time are unnecessary.。All you need is a computer and AI software。

Another thing I need is an idea.、Even that is not “essential”。For example, let's say the title is "Spending an Evening on the Beach in Summer"。Write a rough story in sentences。
The AI ​​then presents a "script" based on that story within a few tens of seconds to a few minutes.。A photo (or a drawing) that matches it、Or there is also a video。who reads the script、select character。You can also adjust the quality of your voice and speaking speed.。It will also show you the captions.、You can freely choose the font。You can rewrite the parts you don't like...etc..
In this way, within a few minutes to more than ten minutes、You can complete a video without even having a single photo on hand.。Of course, you can also use your own photos.、It doesn't take any effort for anyone to become the main character of the video.。Moreover,、The copyright of the resulting video (regardless of whether it has any meaning or not) is yours.。Maybe you all already、You may already be watching videos created by AI without knowing it.。

The time I spent on this video、Was all that training time a waste? I feel so pathetic that I want to say。But、I'm sure most videos will be like that soon.。effort etc.、No one would want to do that if possible.。
As I wrote the other day、Was it an American funeral home?、If you have a photo of the deceased or a voice from when he was alive,、Video conversations between the deceased and their families have already become a business.。The content of the conversation is、after the deceased dies、In other words, "at the moment"。If there are any texts or materials written or spoken by the deceased,、From there, the content of the story is unique to that person.、It is said that even the mannerisms of speaking can be reproduced.。100We have become able to have conversations with our ancestors from years ago about today's topics in 2023.。It's a scary thing if you think about it a little deeper.。
Even if you think about the immediate future、Some TV stations will go bankrupt as well.、Most video engineers will also be unemployed.。People who believe that “AI will open up the future of humanity”、It seems that only half of the people think that ``Pandora's box has been opened.''、For now I'm the latter。

Speed ​​and “likes”

Although it doesn't look like a hydrangea at first glance、If you look closely, you can see that it is a member of the hydrangea family.

The ability to disseminate information is important、Now is the time when this is said not only to companies and local governments, but also to individuals.。New equipment is being developed all the time、Even if you know almost nothing about computers、Anyone can now send messages to the world (e.g. Twitter)。

on the other hand、Ability to carefully examine transmitted information、So-called information literacy、It just says, "It's necessary to protect yourself," but it's not very specific.。The methods and training methods are simply left to the individual or to ``study (experience) various things'' (that's what I think).。The person who said it probably doesn't know what to do.。

That's why (?) the amount of transmissions becomes abnormally large.。The reason we send information is because we want to be recognized.、110 times rather than times、100Of course it is more advantageous to send 10,000 times than 10,000 times.。1Rather than taking time to carefully disseminate information、Even if you are not satisfied, it is better to do it 100 times.、10,000 times even if I am very unsatisfied、It flows like this、natural in a sense。And if you get a “like” somewhere (if there is a reaction), focus on that.。Speed ​​is more important than content.。
　The side that gives a “like”、In other words, there is no "literacy" on the receiving side.。In that situation、react on a whim by chance。That being said, getting 10,000 or 1 million likes?、I guess it does have some persuasive power after all.、Because many people think that、This creates an information cycle.。
but、In modern times、Even videos that have been viewed 100 million times (which is not uncommon anymore)、Almost no one remembers that、In fact, it will be forgotten after a few days.。Where is the "persuasive power" in that?。What is the difference between this and a mere assumption on the part of the sender?。

10It's hard to write letters to people。If the content becomes complicated, it can take several days to write a single letter.。The more intimate the、It can also be stressful。Such a situation (due to the above circumstances) is not welcome in modern times.、Even in chat GPT、It is best to have a letter sent automatically that is as polite as possible but never more than a courtesy.。Above all、Even if you write a letter like that, you won't get any "likes".。Speed ​​is life。If you don't get likes, it's not worth it.、As long as we don't question the value of "likes" themselves,。

I can't repeat the same thing

Yesterday 18:00 up

cannot repeat the same thing。It's not that I'm bored or anything.、cannot be simply repeated。2I'll manage until the next time though、3By the time I see it again, I'm no longer confident。

I can't do the same thing、“Similar things” can be repeated (?) somehow。For example, washing dishes。When washing dishes, we use slightly different dishes every day, so it's a similar thing, but it's not the same thing (although it seems like a farce)、In my opinion, I make a serious distinction), so I can continue.。But、For example, 20 identical plates、30It's a little difficult to wash。I'm afraid I'll drop it somewhere and break it.、I get nervous。I don't seem to be good at "getting used to it"。

Needless to say、In reality, it's the same thing、There is no such thing as "the same thing"。It's just a matter of feeling。(So?) I thought it was a problem with my (perceptions).、Apparently more or less、It seems that all humans are made like this (I feel relieved)。
Considering human history、Searching for food for the day every day、To protect yourself and your family from the harsh natural environment and enemies、I'm sure that I would never (couldn't) repeat the "same thing" even for a moment.。In that sense, it is the power of civilization that has made it possible to ``repeat'' the ``same thing''.、It's very recent。What if "simple repetition" was built into human (brain) function?、In fact, humans may not have survived this long.。

Modern times require "getting used to things" (to things and society)。“Getting used to it” is not only for the person himself/herself.、In fact, it is less of a burden on society.、This is because it is recognized as。I sometimes felt like I was not good at “getting used to it”.、Probably due to that。
Modern people collectively call video production etc. creative.、Although paradoxically there is、A yearning for the ``unaccustomed'' that is humanity's ``home''、I feel like I'm working unconsciously。
