This is the only AI slop I actually enjoy.
How the tides have turned. What about the creators and owners of the Lego franchise and the creators of the Lego movies? What about AI being so dumb and can’t make anything good?
They’ll be fine they got a lot of money. When my kids get older they’ll have even more.
AI is pretty good at mocking the right and tabletop sessions. Shame neither are easily monetized.
It helps that Trump’s narrative is incoherent, changes daily and is an ALL CAPS WALL OF RAMBLING TEXT. It’s hard to say how Iran’s narrative would stack up against a competent administration.
Yeeeup. You mostly nailed it, except that a lot of times his narrative changes multiple times a day – often multiple times in the same single, nonsensical, rambling rant. He regularly directly contradicts what he just said. It blows my mind. My faith in humanity is struggling.
I read the first line or so and my brain says, “Yep, that’s another Trump ramble.” and discards it.
They were so good people are trying to imitate them.
The “fake” ones suck.
I mean, I’m no fan of the Iranian regime, but damn are they killing it in the propaganda department
Anyone got a link to the vids? I’m curios. I do like a Lego movie
These are the archived ones from now banned YouTube channel Explosive Media.
