Coming in July (Patreon)

I made a 50-minute commentary video for Never Count the Stars, which I tried to upload to my alt channel, DarkAntics, but it won't process. I was able to contact YouTube support and they're allegedly looking into it. If it doesn't get resolved, I'll have to upload it to my main channel. I'll keep you updated and let you know when it's available. (EDIT: update, I successfully uploaded it. It's availible here: https://youtu.be/3ZB4s1eqfFk). The video answers some questions and delves into my thought processes on artistic, philosophical, and technical perspectives.
My next video, which will most likely be uploaded in July, is currently in the works. It's another serious video, but the whole thing takes place in one setting, and has only two characters, so it shouldn't take nearly as long as the last one. It's about a conversation with an artificial intelligence, and asks certain questions regarding how we define and value consciousness, sentience, sapience, etc.
I began to write it in an experimental way, playing with the ideas, but as I finished it, I was really excited to turn it into a video. I even shared it with people who have actually coded and worked with artificial intelligences and asked them to tell me if it's dumb, but they gave it their seal of approval with very few suggestions, so I decided to start working on it. Naturally, if we create a new lifeform, how we define it and treat it is of theological significance, which is how it relates to the general theme of my channel and can give us certain insights on that topic.
