hatari, a self proclaimed anti capitalist band, making an ai generated music video wasnât on my bingo card this year. but here we are
making an ai generated video to criticise ai is not satire. itâs hypocrisy. and you donât have to be a political thinker to understand that itâs both unethical and disastrous for the environment. theyâve done political satire many times in their career, but this is simply not it.
they couldâve hired an artist to create the same uncanny- ness of ai and make the supposed critique more prominent. instead they did this. frankly i donât care if itâs some âfucking with the audienceâ moment because it comes of as lazy and shallow.
iâm really disappointed to see one of my favourite bands come to the point of such hypocrisy. the same band who (among other things) pushed me into understanding more about the horrors of capitalism. to now what? do something this thoughtless????
