It's AI all the way down

Back in November, I went with some friends to play paintball -- it was the first time I ever played. We had booked a 3 hour session that would feature multiple matches. I don't think any of us had ever played before and we were all pretty nervous about getting hit.

Lo and behold, within the first 30 seconds of the game, I took a paintball to the knee (cue the "I used to be an adventurer like you..." meme from Skyrim). Somehow, I twisted my leg as I rag dolled into the ground.

Of course, you can't just give up after 30 seconds, right? So, on I played. The result is that I ended up tearing my ACL (the doc said he had no idea how this could have happened), have a bone contusion, and will likely need reconstructive surgery at some point. Fun!

Anyway, the point of all of this -- for funsies, I tried to create a song about the situation using Suno's generative music service (see previously). I used ChatGPT to come up with some initial lyrics and then did some work to refine them.

Then! I decided to use OpenAI's generative video tool, Sora, to attempt to create a bunch of clips. I strung everything together in iMovie and the result is this rowdy music video: "This is What I Get"

It's Friday afternoon, so let's write a song

My latest generative AI obsession: Suno. You provide it some lyrics, give it a musical style to emulate and hit the create button. It's pretty wild.

I wrote some fun lyrics about deploying code on Fridays, set to some catchy 80's pop. The result is pretty crazy.

[Verse] Testing in production (oh yeah) That is how we roll (whoa) Testing in production using my flawless code [Bridge] Why should I write tests (what?) My code is never a mess (oh no) Did I just rhyme, Tests and a mess (yeah he did) [Chorus] It's Friday afternoon. It's time to deploy my code. (whoa yeah) The weekend is almost here. It's time to deploy my code. (watch out) [Verse] It's Friday afternoon. I don't have anything to fear It's time to deploy my code. The weekend is almost here.
