At least the vtuber is a real person playing a role. Y'know. Currently.
Give it time.

This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.
Be warned:
- Anon is often crazy.
- Anon is often depressed.

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

Neuro-sama has entered the chat
We've been past that point since at least last year.
TIL. Hadn't realized we were already there, I'm not a vtuber guy. I retract my statement.
Also, everything sucks
meh, Neuro-sama is probably the most interesting LLM project I've seen. The dev, Vedal is just fascinated by AI and likes to try new things. He's not trying to replace artists or office workers with Neuro. He's not claiming that Neuro will solve all our problems if you just invest in his company.
Sometimes you know there's a human behind the mask. For example, an AI would have known that you have to steer a Warthog with the mouse.
I don't know why, but every time I see someone streaming with an avatar moving, emoting, and talking rather than either a person or nothing, it's really uncanny valley to me. I don't know why, but it creeps me out and I can't watch it.
Me too, I hate it! Not in a "let's ban it" way, just in the skin-crawly way that lots of people can't stand to see pictures of spiders, or like body horror.
Oh yeah, I wouldn't want to ban it or anything; people should enjoy what they enjoy. I was just wondering if it had the same effect on anyone else.
Yeah, same. I think it's because avatar will have some level of desync with the audio.
...or blink one eye after another or wink randomly.
Shit I didn’t even know that was an option until literally now. I’ve never watched any game play vids, except when I’m looking to see what the game is like before I buy it - bring back playable demos!!!
I’ve been told by several people that they would watch me play a game for background noise, due to not having time to do it themselves and apparently I have decent technical skills (single player games), but the idea of being filmed doesn’t sit well with me. I did allow someone to remote play to watch the story of horizon zero dawn, but it was just the game itself.
I think there's space for artifical company, and I don't think it's a bad idea, but I think it best to lead toward getting grounded in reality. We're social creatures and have a habit of humanizing almost anything.

Living in the future is weird.
Very easy rule to follow, see vtuber, go to another stream
Here's a deep pull: Nessus dancing in holodeck with other Puppeteers, before the word "holodeck" had been coined.
