Greetings!
Many, many years ago I used to be a regular on the main board where I would contribute mostly shit jokes and bad photoshops.
Since then I've gone off to make films and things, and recently made this zero-budget, shot-on-my-phone short comedy film, and I thought it could be the sort of thing that B3tans might enjoy, so here it is.
Woo, and indeed, yay!

that said (i) AI
MADE WITH AI
So I immediately stopped because I don't want to support any art or media made using AI at all.
Has it been made with AI at all?

Oh God no, I utterly despise AI.
All of it was made by me - I shot it on my phone (and a little bit on a fancy BlackMagic camera), edited and graded it in Premiere, did the VFX in After Effects.... I even wrote and recorded the music in Pro Tools.
I also demonstrate my incredible acting range by playing the corpse on the beach. Not one moment of this is AI.
I now need to get onto youtube and find out why they've flagged it as AI.
Thanks for the heads up!! I would never have spotted that, and it's been up for a while now.

The AI alert seems to have gone now, you must have youtube superpowers. I've been hearing of a lot of false positives with their AI detection recently....
Anyway, I watched your film and enjoyed it so there.

But they're more than happy to take money from people who use AI to make adverts for scams.
Fuck Google.

like they'd decided the whole channel was AI.
Meanwhile Isaac Arthur is showing his face but his scripts read like GPT slop. It's a really shitty world right now eh.
