Artificial Intelligence

Slop is here. I made an animation about AI in 2016 taking a digital composition class at OCAD University. It reminds me of Alex Banman who was always kind to me and loved me. The animation tell the stories of an empress leaving her child and sending herself to space by changing her bodies from human to machine. It is about how technology advances human progress. It talks about artificial intelligence as an identity, as a choice and as a lifestyle. Alex Banman left Ontario in 2023 and moved to British Columbia. I regretted how we ended up in these slops with my mental illness, psychosis and schizophrenia. Since the development of AI and ChatGPT, my life has become different than before. Everything is automated these days. We still chatted nowadays on emails. I’m glad we could remain friends forgetting about the pandemic, lockdown and Covid 19. It was a dark period of my life. But it still taught me something about humanity in general. Etc.
