" Nowhere is cultural acceleration more evident than in the movies. As Andrej Karpathy says, movies from before 1995 are slow, boring and naive."
(Well, this goes some way to explaining "AI" "art")
This has got to be some sort of sucker filter, like it's not that he particularly means it, it's that he is after the exact type of rube who is unfazed by naked contrarianism and the categorically preposterous so long as it's said with a straight face,.
Maybe there's something to the whole pick up artistry but for nailing VCs thing.
It really is as simple as that. The dude got a fair bit of attention from his LSTM blog post and got addicted. Turns out, you can't churn out awesome blog posts that often so you gotta switch to the harder stuff.

I also hate movies where I can see the actual action going on and it isn't all shaky cam and cuts cuts cuts.
I bet that guy watches anime on 2x speed and skips parts without dialog to feel more “productive”.
Anime has dialog? Nani?
ANTA BAKA?!*
*translator's note: baka means "plan"
according to modern film scholars, this cultural shift was brought about by the lasting audience impact of that scene in Speed (1994) where the bus fucking noclips across a gap while pretending there’s a ramp it’s using to jump (or Keanu made it pop a wheelie?)
"Are you telling me I can jump a bus across a 50 foot gap at 67 miles per hour?"
"No Neo, I'm telling you that when you're ready, you won't have to."
Wasn't 1994 right about when they stopped making movies in black and white?
Who? Is that some indie movie director?
So just a rando with a stupid opinion. Go back to your totally-not-naive AGI vision board.
