Following on from the Burning Vibes video previously, is another hard rock CGI video from a different artist released in 2024. It's hard to say which of these tunes is better as they're both fantastic, but at least this one is over twice as long at 3m 6s. See which one you prefer and let us know in the comments.

Note how the animation in this video is off by just enough to put the characters into the uncanny valley. Love the weirdness of this effect.

Prefer Nocturna Sands; Burning Vibes is a bit too samey for me. Riffs are ok in both. Did you say uncanny valley? yeah, definitely.

Yes, I've noticed that a lot of AI generated content is very samey, whether it's writing, videos, including the people in them, or music. Thing is with the music, if hits the spot, then I'll happily play it over and over and over until... burnout! :D

The best uncanny valleys that I've seen are physical humanoid robots in documentaries. They're still nowhere near like a real human, nothing like the advanced android ones depicted in movies, but that poor approximation makes them look and act weird af. Love it.

AI is now very realistic, sometimes the realism is the giveaway. Or maybe, we still view on 2 dimensional screens and when both nearby and distant objects are crystal clear and in focus it is unnatural.

There are some aircraft videos that look superb but one shows some four engined transport plane manoeuvring on an aircraft carrier and taking off.

One wonders how the future will shape out if we are unable to differentiate reality from fiction.

Yes, I find it a giveaway as well: near and far objects, all at the same sharpness?-Not natural for sure; definitely seen thru a machine's eyes....

And I also agree that once we cannot differentiate fact from fiction.....it will be Grim indeed.
Thankfully we are not there yet; close, but not quite there; says I, fervently hoping.....

Entertaining music video. A little Mad Max dystopian, but fun.
