AI so far on this adventure has proven its absolute weight in gold. I am sure those trillions of dollars of investment was well worth it in the end. Even though our planet will eventually look like the cut chapter Air Exhange from half life 2, at least we pulled the SSTV from non existence! Excellent.

To me, it looks like the channel owner is capitalising on the interest around these posters. I think it's a crude AI mock-up to farm views.

The very title: Boards of Canada - Slopdown is quite a big hint it's just AI Slop.
Also, the posters, the dithering around the BoC hexagon logos look weird, as if added from a lower quality source in software. Nevermind, I saw a different picture, higher quality, etc.

Just food for thoughts

It was Sundown before but the guy keeps changing the title and thumbnail. Either way, if you wanted to pretend to have a new BoC track, replacing a word in the title with "slop" and having AI slop as the video would be a clever way to bait views without lying. "No no, it's just an AI video for Sundown, what did you expect?"

Feels like we're moving at a quicker pace now. Perhaps quicker than expected? VHS, posters and now the braille. Seems to confirms the tapes were merely teasers.

Do we all understand that music has the right to children? Did we see the brainwashing? Do you feel free yet? This new album from Boards of Canada may help us understand a new way int terms of the human experience.
