Secret Invasion is the work of ChatGPT’s cousin, or DALL-E

If we immediately smash all the computer equipment in our immediate vicinity, it may not be too late, because I am sure now: the attack plan on the future Robo Overlord has just been activated. Before long, this digital ruler finds access to the world’s nuclear-powered besieging missile arsenal and wipes out most of us (nearly 8 billion nasty bits of bugs, in cold robotic terms) thanks to some obnoxious precision from which nuclear warheads are dropped. Earth’s crust. He might have a few million survivors to reproduce as a power source.

What a smart move, too, to make the world think it’s only the opening credits Secret invasion, Marvel’s latest series on Disney+, is the work of an ancestor on the hyper-accelerated evolutionary scale he suddenly began to assume. Perhaps the delusion that things are not going smoothly with that AI will calm us down, while we understand the miserable quality of that premise. Come on, as if it wasn’t obvious to the trained eye that the entire first episode, and possibly this entire series, was put together with AI.

As if Samuel L. in his portrayal of government agent Nick Fury, a role he’s been supporting for fifteen years now, the parts of Jules Winnfield are suddenly popping up. Pulp Fiction! And if actors like Ben Mendelsohn (recurring Skrull leader Talos), Olivia Colman (MI6 agent), Cobie Smulders (S.H.I.E.L.D. agent Maria Hill), or Don Cheadle (James “Rhodey” Rhodes) play their roles with such gusto, it’s laziness.

As if the opening episode of a TV series set when the Russian invasion of Ukraine was already underway would make Moscow the place it is, which it currently owes culturally. Out of bounds It is for the western minds that the whole Marvel anarchy is targeting. I tell you, this is the cousin work of ChatGPT or DALL-E, with output that’s startlingly close to something authentic, but also has formal bugs that distort the final result terribly.

Once that realization sinks in, you begin to think more. Perhaps the effects of AI were not quite ready at that time Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania? Perhaps they began the texts cautiously much earlier? That would at least explain the mess eternal It was, perhaps, also the point of the simple pedal Avengers: Endgame.

I tell you: I no longer trust anything.
