It seems like there was a 90% chance you weren’t impressed by these either…
> doesn't convince or impress me or anyone else that's a skeptic
Yes, this is why I asked what % of comments you’ve made have been skeptical about AI. There’s nothing that will impress you.
I didn’t want to convince you I wanted to find out if I should have any interest in what you had to say.
> It seems like there was a 90% chance you weren’t impressed by these either…
And you'd be wrong in that assumption. When these first came out, particularly veo, I was quiet impressed with the photo realistic scenes it produced. Just like I was pretty impressed by "this is not a real human" website when it first launched.

New and novel things impress me. What's new and novel about this?
> I didn’t want to convince you I wanted to find out if I should have any interest in what you had to say.
Ah, so my opinion about stuff is only worth something if I said "I believe AI is the best thing that has ever been invented and I will kill myself to further it!!"
Go find a church if you can only talk with zealots.
> New and novel things impress me
They don’t seem to if 90% of what you have to say about AI is by your own admission at best tepid.
I honestly don’t understand how anyone can look at the state of AI today (even if the gains are perceived to be marginal compared to the last version) and be like, “meh, not impressive, better say something negative about it.”
But that seems to be the gospel here on the Church of HN.
