"Seinfeld" may have had a long run, but it's incomparable to the A.I.-generated never-ending episode of the show that is "Nothing, Forever." A surreal experiment in machine learning, this iteration of "Seinfeld" features crudely animated versions of the main cast talking like stilted automated voice operators and behaving like characters from a 90s sitcom if they were written entirely by a computer algorithm. The project, which launched on December 14, 2022, but has gained significant traction this week, is currently broadcasting on an infinite stream on Twitch.
Founders Skyler Hartle and Brian Habersberger describe "Nothing, Forever" as a continuously evolving exploration into procedurally generated entertainment, endlessly reacting to the Twitch stream chat and becoming more adept at constructing coherent scenarios.

"Flesh Computer "is a twisted and unique sci-fi short directed by Ethan Shaftel that I really think you're going to like.

David Chalmers, a noted philosopher, even appears in the film and "raises some fundamental questions on consciousness in counterpoint to the action." This is really an amazing piece of film work, and it's incredibly captivating. Here's a brief synopsis that came along with it.
When his cybernetic pet project is put in jeopardy, the handyman of a decaying apartment building is forced to take a stand, blurring the lines between human and machine.
I hope you all take the time to check this out, because it's a good one. ...
