The first day of 'AI & Other Scientific Fables' at @anucecc @ourANU has been a wild multi-disciplinary ride: AI alignment, short fiction, ethics, monstrous AI, narrative, LLMs, anthropology, psychoanalysis, creative writing, linguistics, children's literature, demonic multitudes!

@rethinkingfable event today was fascinating, thx to all the speakers. Funny to revisit these 2 related posts lol.
Trying out the new @StableDiffusion #SDXL Amused more than impressed so far. The random contraptions on the floor and on the roofs, the lighthouse building, the air-drumming. Prompt was "Donald Trump and his band, playing the last show in the early morning at Woodstock festival"
