Yeah the first "finding cats" game (Corrected by comments: Traveling Cats) got copied by scammers a lot :/ This one's pretty terrible, not only because of the AI but also they couldn't even get a full image so they just glued the same piece over and over, that sucks
Not sure if they are the orginal (they have the "Cats Hidden In Paris" game i think you are referencing), they are "Travellin Cats" and all their stuff is hand drawn.
In regards to the Hidden Cats game, the developer replied to his review. Its in chinese, but translated it says: "Is this because the game took too long to find all the cats, so he was very angry?" Theres three reviews, all negative but they only replied to Kaifs. Edit - Magic Puzzle King has one too: "AI is just a tool, just like photoshop, and photoshop itself also supports AI generation. AI does not mean laziness. Instead, more new art forms are represented. The voice against AI will surely be silenced in the rolling wheel of history." Again, only Kaifs review got a response. They're a bit upset at him...
While AI is a tool, it does not exist to just do 90% of the work, most of the outcry over it isent because of using it, its because of the overdepency on it and the fact the cryptobros latched onto it. It reminds me of CGI, most shows around them were just made 100% CGI until Toy Story shown what CGI could actully do if effort was actully put into it, i could be wrong about Toy story being the one that did this but its the only one i remember.
@@MifuneShio isn't it the opposite, CGI was seen as a tool only for big companies at first, and then ReBoot showed that it can be used for the weekly cartoons?
@@ten0fclubs70 I only remember stuff like Cubix,Reboot and the old PS1 intros like tekken, also im not pro-AI i just try to look at the positives and negatives and so far when its come to AI use I have only seen negatives because companies are either using it to scam,replace artists or just lower overall costs when it shouldent be that depended on at all.
"The voices opposing AI will surely be silenced in the rolling wheels of history" is such a fucking villain, dystopian thing to say, and also, they're wrong, it may be easier for the causal bro to "ignore artists" but we artists will ALWAYS be opposing it unless it's done ethically and without harming the environment (Which I suspect will never be the case), we won't just accept it and especially we won't start using it, even if the AI-bro bubble may not see it, there will always be a group of people that oppose it until it's rightfully dealt with. Anyway, amazing video Kaiffy! It genuinely makes me happy you're openly Anti-AI and supporting of us artists!!
Sleep Paralysis can make you see things from time to time yes. generally varies from person to person. Personally heard voices before/ seen shadowy figures but thats about all. freaked me out the first couple of times.
I had it several times and every time the hallucinations were wild First one (the most vivid I remember) was a small ufo that flew in through my window and started drifting around the room, like Tokyo drifting
as a kid i had sleep paralysis a lot, and there was a giant, menacing crab, that filled out the complete back half of my room. it would just stand there in the dark and look at me. sometimes coming closer, without me being able to move, or look away.
"The voices opposing AI will surely be silenced in the rolling wheels of history" ... the scariest part about this is, the realization when you lived through the rise of DLCs and predatory micro-transactions. The controversy fricking horse-armor for Oblivion was, and now it's one of the less bad ones. When games did not release with a plethora of game-breaking bugs because ... you know, they had to get burned onto a disk and it was not guaranteed that people playing the game have internet for downloading patches. When games came in full on boxes with goodies like a cloth-map, or figurines and stuff for normal price, before they switched to dvd-cases and started the collectors-editon-trend. Which is now a "pay 150 Euro for a pink left cheek skin and 3 days early access". When the "new" Simcity came out and we cried out against always-online. The voices did get silenced by the wheels of time, and a new generation of gamers trained on the expectation, that all those things are just normal and how video-games are. :( I fear AI will be added to that pile.
ive got a background in it and art, and i dont know how you can copyright and sell a game that uses art frankenseined from artists that didnt consent. I think there will be a revolution with artists suing companies, and as soon as we win those, they will get scared. some laws will start happening, and theres already talk about laws being put in place. but since ai developed faster than anyone could have imagined, laws and rulings are waaaay behind, and need to be updated.
31:08 As for someone who experiences sleep paralysis often it is way worst than that, the game is too silent, where in in my experience everything is loud and all of my senses are overwhelmed also, you cannot move anything you are stuck looking at where your face is facing and hopes for the best that no entity created by my brain would go near or in front of my face, also even if I am not that religious, I am forced to pray for my dear life. Edit: By way worse, the game is in easy mode and what I experience is nightmare difficulty
I only had it once, but was facing a wall at the time so I never actually saw anything but the feeling of not being able to move at all even though your trying your hardest is a really horrible feeling.
I don't know if its sleep paralysis or what, but as a kid I'd wake up from these dreams unable to move. And it downright terrified me. More recently I had something like that happen and I started freaking out.
For me it's probably better because I don't see anything nor hear but it doesn't help. The feeling of helplessness, it's not a good one, especially after a nightmare, you try to wake up but you just lay there. Yours though is terrific , probably sleep paralysis is dependent on your ability to imagine. For example, you have one which is imagery, second feeling, maybe sounds, depends
4:24 AI generated games aren’t allowed on steam (or at least have to disclose it uses mostly AI generated assets) if I recall correctly that is. Steam rules might just be you have to mark it as contains ai content, in which case yeah it should honestly not be allowed or have a big disclaimer saying it contains a large amount of ai generated assets.
I don't get all the hate for AI because I like seeing what AI can create and it's just cool how far technology has come and as someone who can't make art or edit photos well, it is a useful tool as well. Plus the whole "AI taking jobs" thing isn't true when people thought the same thing about computers or even cars, because we simply adapt to technology and make new jobs with it so I don't get the hate for AI when it is a useful tool for making things some might otherwise not be able to🤷🏼♂️
@@Slye_FoxThis 100%. I've seen some companies and individuals who are using AI for artwork by feeding a collection of their own artwork to a model. They then turn around and use this model to do certain aspects of their work for them, such as backgrounds or whatnot. I have absolutely no problem with this, as it's using a tool to speed up certain aspects of work. What I do mind are the models that go out and steal the work of multitudes of artists to then turn around and spit out what boils down to stolen work.
@@DeidaraIsTheBest10I'm pretty sure this is a case of someones account being stolen by an AI promoter bot. Yt doesn't do nearly enough to combat bots in the comments
I get sleep paralysis fairly often. I’ve never had the kind where I’m able to open my eyes and have them play tricks on me. When I experience it, i feel like I can’t breathe, but I can’t open my eyes or move to try to help myself. It’s pretty scary tbh it’s like I’m experiencing the last moments before death 😅
8:30 Fun fact about elevator design, the rapid compression of air from them falling creates a natural cushion near the bottom of an elevator shaft. There's a woman who fell I think it was 75 stories? She was injured but recovered.
From the times I've had sleep paralysis, each one was different from seeing stuff, hearing things and smells; but they all made my sense of dread shoot up. I know its in my head and all, but man does it fuck with you if you can't force yourself back asleep. Used to do that and just say to myself "Sleep is more important if I die it was just my time."
I dont think you are a old man yelling at clouds with the whole AI thing. Although AI can be used to help make some really cool art, its mostly used by people to be lazy, and scam. It doesnt help that AI uses Art stolen from artists without permission so it's morally grey. Making a whole puzzle game around it then charging money just doesn't feel right, especially getting all worked up over it. idk just my thoughts

@@fuzzyotterpaws4395 It's a sign of laziness. Instead of paying an artist to make the art, you just go to a machine that make a half-assed picture instead. People have also used AI to enter drawing contests and scam the judges and organization pretending that they drew the entries (look at Pokémon drawing contests for instance). They prefer to use a soulless algorythm than the creativity of a person. Also, AI "art" uses stolen creations without permission, so it's built upon theft and doesn't credit the original posters nor gives them any kind of compensation. Not a good basis if you ask me. AI art will never compare to what a talented person can do, but people and corpos prefer to save some bucks than support artists cause greed. This can hurt little starting peers or lower their income because clients prefer AI slop. Lastly, it can discourage people from taking artistic careers because they might think it's not worth it if a machine can do it. This is why AI "art" is bad and should have never been invented.
I've had sleep paralysis a few times but I never got to have a ghost stalking me. It always was just that I couldn't move and could barely breathe. The last time it happened I kept trying to yell out and finally my wife came in and asked if I was okay because I was making weird moaning noises, which finally woke me up properly. A friend of mine once told me that sometimes he would wake up and there would be sharks swimming in his floor, so I guess it's different for different people? Something to note: when I'm having sleep paralysis I don't realize I'm having it until I wake up. The one time I did realize it I was like "okay I know what this is" and although it was still terrifying to not be able to move at least I knew that it would end at some point. Pretty sure I fell back to sleep and woke up normally later.
I got a sleep paralysis event once and it was the coolest experience I had... after I figured out I wasn't paralyzed. Everyone keeps thinking of the hallucination parts as a required prerequisite, but about 25% of the cases don't have any-- like mine! So yeah, it's generally personal, because it's hallucinations. My sleep paralysis experience started rough, because I woke up completely paralyzed, not even able to move or open my eyes. I tried REALLY hard to get past the "movement block" (long summary short, when you go to sleep a part of your brain "locks down" so you don't go around trying to move IRL because you're doing it in your dreams) and focused on trying to flex fingers. I managed a controlled twitch of my pinkie after WAY too long thinking it "louder" (it's what I'd do in lucid dreams to force the dream to bend and let me do something it didn't want me to do) and that confirmed I didn't get suddenly quadriplegic. Until I confirmed I wasn't paralyzed medically, I had breathing issues that were just me stressing OUT. But after I realized "oh, THAT'S why it's called sleep paralysis!" my breathing evened out back to rest and I stopped feeling trapped. It's actually really cozy as a state, when you're not panicking and stressed out and trying to fight it. Like being stuck RIGHT at the point before you conk out, but aware enough to appreciate it. I ended up falling back asleep after probably a few minutes of just lying there being cozy doing my impression of a ragdoll. 9/10 would go again, maybe without the paralysis scare.
I had only paralysis once. I was sleeping on my stomach during that and I felt like someone was on top of me. I tried to struggle but was unable to. It lasted a moment and then it was over and I for sure couldn't go to bed after that scare xd
@@lu11aby my Nana told me one time that when she was a little girl she experienced sleep paralysis (and this is the only sleep paralysis she says she’s ever had btw) and in her sleep paralysis she saw a plane crashing down onto her house and woke up right when the plane hit, very interesting stuff y’know?
My first and only sleeping paralysis (so far) experience: my bedroom door is a sliding door in my apartment. When I was fully awake but couldn't open my eyes for some reason (and fully conscious), I sensed my bedroom door slide open. A dark shadow figure entered my bedroom. (Don't know how and why I could sense so much detail on him) A man was wearing a dressing hat, a grey coat usually worn on top of suits. He was getting closer. There is a tree outside of my apartment unit, and I thought he must've climbed up the tree and entered my unit (I always leave my patio door unlocked). My heart rate started increasing, and I started getting sweaty. I started roaring (not sure if I made the sound or not). I keep telling myself: open my eyes, open my eyes. Ahhhhh. Don't know how long had passed, my eyes suddenly snapped open. In short: no one was in my apartment. I was all alone. It was around 4 a.m., had roughly 5 hours of sleep. Couldn't sleep anymore after that, so I went for a walk (summer time). From this experience, I always lock my patio door now.
when i had sleep paralysis it was pretty similar though probably scarier… but yeah, you are in a moment of being awake while still dreaming at the same time, which is why you can’t move your muscles. i couldn’t move anything at all and i had this creepy “alien” monster thingy slowly approaching me and every time i closed my eyes (had to blink) it’d get closer to me and started crawling onto my bed and on my legs. everyone experiences it differently of course, but yeah the point of it is that you’re still dreaming while being awake which is why you can experience “hallucinations” and can’t move anything at all. actually having now seen the ending yeah i was getting crawled on just like the ghost was lol. (i was typing this while watching)

@@fuzzyotterpaws4395 It's because to be able to generate images, it steals from millions of artists who didn't consent, breaching their copyright and essentially creating things from the mangled corpses of our hard work, it also is horrible for the environment, do any ounce of research and you'll realize it isn't "just a tool" and cannot be compared to actual artistic tools, and I also don't understand why AI is being focused to take away human expression and creativity, but not remove actual dangerous and detrimental work.
Too answer the question about sleep paralysis is that you can hallucinate be unable to move due to the body being in a state of rem, and most of the time it only lasts for anywhere between 30 mins or longer depending on your state of exhaustion. So yes in a way it's accurate but everyone deals with something different, and sometimes it's not really scary but comforting. My reason for knowing this is I had a experience of this myself and I knew someone else who struggled with it to a much more intense degree.
When it comes to Steam games that use any form of AI art, from music to pictures to writing, it should need to be disclosed in the description, That way, people who don't want to support it won't get tricked into it.
@@greywolf5590 If it is, it's not the way that it should be. Just saying "There's some AI content" isn't enough - what kind of content, how much, etc is needed. People are more likely to overlook some script writing than music or art, and one song is very different from a whole soundtrack.
it is, as of january this year i believe (?). underneath the 'about this game' section, there will be an 'ai generated content disclosure' section. a paragraph from steam's statement on it: "First, we are updating the Content Survey that developers fill out when submitting to Steam. The survey now includes a new AI disclosure section, where you'll need to describe how you are using AI in the development and execution of your game."
Sleep paralysis for me makes me panicky. I want to scream, but I can't because I can't move my body, and i have a really loud ringing in my ears occasionally. One time, I did halucinate someone opening and closing my bedroom door, then a figure cloaked in shadows placed his hands through my chest, and I felt like I couldn't breathe. That was definitely the worst experience I've ever had, truly horrifying.
I have a very rare but recursive form of sleep paralysis, not really the scary sleep paralysis demon type, just I physically feel like I've woken up and begun walking around and almost rubber band into my bed, I also lucid dream though so I can tell when it's happening, but it's one of the few dreams that I have zero control over.
Valve did update their Agreements on the Developer/publisher side about AI Generated content and especially that it needs to be LEGAL. so maybe another legal case kaif can dive into in the gaming sphere? :D

Whenever I've had sleep paralysis I've never had hallucinations and I've never opened my eyes. I tend to start shaking my head from side to side to start getting the body going. I've shouted a couple of times as well, but not as wild as some people have it.
I’ve been scrolling and refreshing through TH-cam for half an hour now looking for a video to watch while I finish knitting some Christmas gifts. Thank you for your service 😭🙏
13:31 (jumpscare warning) i actually like this one! its accurate to how irl i sometimes get Spooked by random objects in my peripheral vision when I'm already on edge!
As someone who experienced some sleep paralysis, and that game represents like maybe 50% (based on my experience of course). The other 50%, lacks of voices and more realistic halucination. and It happens kind of shorter than the gameplay that you did www. and Sleep paralysis makes you cant move or even move your head tbh. Sometimes won't even let you open your eyes for a while. edit: Also, AI it is a tool, and Its not a new forms of art, Its blatant laziness. I see no lots of effort from the user or client to create the art. the AI did most of the work. Arts is any creative product of captured moment, sending a message, and express your feeling with effort, skill and personality. I ain't seeing any of those elements in AI.
23:11 This reminds me so much of a mix between two movies I watched recently on Amazon Prime...I really wish I could remember the name of them. They were pretty decent if not a bit confusing at points The big differences were location (one took place at a big indoor hotel I believe in Ireland? and the other took place mainly at a small gas station/pantry)
6:46 there’s probably something with a group of colors so you know the order but both 3 and 5 seem to be yellow, so even with a color hint, you’d still have to brute force it…
I've had sleep paralysis a few times... It is honestly one of the scariest things I have ever experienced I couldn't move or breathe I tried to scream but nothing happened. There is nothing like lying next to your spouse, wanting nothing more than to touch them, feeling as if you must be dying... Zero stars.
20:55 a good way of the dev doing this might be a line like "Yikes.... That'll have to be good enough!" and then getting an objective to return to the reception area??
The most consistent thing that happens to me during my sleep paralysis is its hard to breathe or cant breath manually which sends me into to panic mode. Its like waking where every part of your body is auto pilot besides your eyes and awareness, and cant turn on manual mode to move your body or breathe manually.
Mainly sleep on my side when I have sleep paralysis, couple things for my experience: - Feels like I have my phone flashlight pointed in my face, I can only count 2 times when this happened that it feels like I left my phone flashlight on. Looking back, all I remember is a light. - Unsettling feeling of not having mobility in my body, like I’m being buried under a heavy weight blanket and I can’t move my limbs. It’s worse when I move my toes (recommended form of getting out of it) and I feel like I’m in control of my body, but then I’m suddenly weighed down again. Happened 3-4 times in a night. - My first experience gave me auditory and visual hallucinations, scared the f out of me. But now it’s replaced with a heavy sense of dread, and sometimes the feeling that I’m being watched.
sleep paralysis is no joke, experienced it years ago and what i saw was a small silhuetted demon like child, sitting close to my feet and slowly started reaching out towards them, i was FREAKING OUT, and eventually fell off the couch making the dogs run to me....... shiet was HORRIFYING
For sleep paralysis, I'm not sure I actually suffer from it? But I do have moments where I will be laying down and unable to move. I'll see and hear things moving about me, but my body refuses to look towards it. Things like hands gripping the side of the bed or curling around doors. Shadows moving on the wall that are just odd enough that you can tell it's not a natural shadow (More like a person's shadow). Noises are usually creaks, minor thuds, and scraping sounds. On rare occasions, it'll be a voice, breathing, or similar "Human" sounds. Sometimes I'll be able to sit up, but unable to turn my head. Or if I turn my head, my eyes are locked to a specific spot. Sometimes, it's just my legs I can move, or just my arms. My cat will usually end up jumping on the bed and then climbing onto me, and that'll snap me out. It feels like when you're waking from a dream while falling, so you get that sensation when you wake up. I'm still not sure if it's a dream state I'm in, or what. Sometimes I'll experience things, and then when I go to wake up, those things will happen (A door creaking open slightly at night, in the morning, someone actually opens the door to wake me up)
Sleep paralysis is honestly scary. I am fully awake and aware but cannot move my body or open my eyes or scream, but I can still hear. It can last for a couple of seconds or for minutes for me and I can have multiple instances of sleep paralysis in a night.
My sleep paralysis has included me feeling like a blanket was so heavy I couldn't breathe and one where something in the corner of my eye looked like someone was there but I couldn't move my head
I occasionally suffer from sleep paralysis... It varies from person to person, but with me, I become very aware of my own heart beat and breathing. Painfully aware. I also will sometimes hear either someone talking, or distorted music, despite no one else living with me. Thankfully it's very rare, as it only happens if I'm on my back (side sleeper mostly) and only when I'm horribly sleep deprived, and can usually kick myself out of it before it goes on too long... I feel for those who suffer through the harsh ones.
on the sleep paralysis question, the whole "normal" movement and seeing full faces and stuff doesnt exactly happen for me but ive heard of people who have very vivid visions. i have a nice wombo combo with another condition called Exploding Head Syndrome where it also manifests for people very differently. for me it sounds like a woman screaming right in my fucking ear and terrifies me everytime it happens. my sleep paralasis is more shadowy figures and slight movement like maybe youd catch a glimpse of something blowing in the wind and think it was a person or something moving. luckily ive only had a couple nights where both of these happen at the same time but those very few times are stuck in my brain. the EHS always happens when im still fully asleep and wakes me up but then i cant move no matter how hard i try and i see things looming near me like a horror flick and all my recently woken up brain can think is the screaming i just heard was whatever the fuck that shadow is in the corner. it feels like im going to have a heart attack everytime it happens and even when i can move im too terrified to do so. one time i was stuck in bed sweating bullets for about 5 hours until the sun lit my room up
I have had sleep paralysis since I was around 6, from having it every night to having it once or twice a year been a god send. The shit Ive seen and the pain and horror is enough to make a horror movie out of :D From a demon opening up my door to just stand at the foot of my bed just looking at me while loud machine sounds,woman and babies crying and the whole room violently shaking and vibrating to a Resident evil licker look a like demon crawling onto my bed and ripping out my inside and I felt all of it. yep, it can be really really bad
I used to be plagued with sleep paralysis during high school. I can see around me but I can't move anything but my eyes. Never saw a sleep paralysis demon like all the other people though. It was just stressful not being able to move.
Thought I might share my experiences with Sleep Paralysis. I've only had it twice and that was within the span of the last year. The first time I was sleeping on a couch and had woken unable to move and at the time, other than my eyes I saw a dark figure standing over me. I had left the light on and could see my surroundings clearly. I had recognized it as sleep paralysis and tried taking rapid deep breaths to try and jolt myself out of the paralysis, I had tried experimenting with lucid dreaming ( I didn't really get anywhere with that) and had learnt a wee bit about it. After a few moments I had properly come about and was fine, found it a bit amusing though was a tad freaked out. The second time was a few months back. I was in my bedroom this time, lights off and the walls are just painted cinder blocks essentially. This time I woke up seeing at the time a dark figure and I thought the brick pattern was like a lecture hall with people watching me. After a few moments it again passed though I think it lasted a bit longer that time around. Those are my only experiences with sleep paralysis though I have had my fair share of weird things happening when tired and nearly asleep in bed such as hearing voices or music, though no visual hallucinations.
I've had sleep paralysis a handful of times and let me tell you the fear is uncontrollable, everything feels too loud but you can't hear what's happening, everything looks too dark but it hurts your eyes anyway, and the simple fact that you can't move a single muscle is despisable, only time i can remember having sleep paralysis I had my blanket over my head due to past experience and it felt like something was constantly pulling my blanket off of me to try and reach me (It felt like the blanket was moving really fast away from me but it never left my body) I could hear it calling out to stop hiding from it and all I could do was hope it wouldn't find me... I may still be a little traumatized by that even though it happened a few years ago. (Was also the most recent experience)
I played the hidden cats game on my phone and i got through about 5 different levels before being bored. They were just too easy to find because they stood out so much, but the backgrounds didn't look nearly as AI as yours.
I know you only glossed over it, but seeing the title "Graveyard Keeper" absolutely sent me. I've played the original Steam game "Graveyard Keeper", which is kind of a dark Stardew Valley... it's a shame that some cheap mobile game got to use that title as well...
I used to get sleep paralysis when I was a kid, I didn't really hallucinate or anything, I would just wake up with absolute certainty that if I make any noise whatsoever, some nameless formless mystery thing that is down the hall would hear and come kill me
speaking of Ai and cat theres a game on steam called Catly that for some reason appear on Game award that has zero gameplay or what the gameplay might be
As someone with sleep Paralyzis. The shadow arm reaching at the foot of the bed and the face from above is realistic. Furniture don't move. You can imagine things to move but not like this.
I had sleep paralysis at some point that was so bad I still believe the feeling of my bed being violently shaken for a split second felt WAY to real. Oh yeah, also obviously the door opening and spooky women, come on man. First time? xD
I’ve hear of that banana game from the thumbnail... a weird rng slot machine of sort where you roll a chance to get special limited steam items with each clicks, some worth nothing, some worth something. I remember someone approached my steam account cuz they were looking at my collection of items and when I asked if they wanted to trade anything, they sent an offer for 95% of my items in exchange for nothing, a quick dig showed that they had nothing except the bananas from that game and the only game it showed they had played was csgo(2?). It was weird, i think the person sold their entire inventory for those bananas
The 2 times I've had sleep Paralysis in my life (that I can recall) I've seen a PNG image of a Raticate, and I could feel something eating my big toe, describing the feeling would be graphic. When the paralysis ended I'd check my foot to make sure the toe was still there, it still is. I am still confused as to why a Raticate of all things, and yes. I really dislike the bugger because of it.
Yeah the sleep paralysis game is oddly spot on for lightly horrific sleep paralysis. That sort of experience is an easy night for me when it happens. To date, I’ve: Hallucinated that my room was covered in bees. Could hear them buzzing and could feel them crawling. Hallucinated a creature on fire that spoke a language I didn’t understand. Saw three shadows above my bed who then proceeded to stab me repeatedly. Heard my parents voice coming from the tv. Part of the hallucination included seeing myself reaching out to them. My hand melted. Hearing and seeing my door open. Something with long fingers was drumming along the wood. I could hear it. The worst is when they mix with waking dreams? I was half asleep and hallucinated that I could move, just barely. But everytime I made it to my door, my eyes snapped open back in my bed, still experiencing paralysis. Then I would move again… snap back again… this loop felt like it lasted for hours. Maybe it did. All in all, sleep paralysis hallucinations are on par with the worst trips I’ve ever had dropping acid. The worst part is feeling like you’re choking. Or feeling the muscle spasms but not being able to stop them.
I don't necessarily think you are yelling at clouds with the AI thing. I think it is a morally gray area... but even then its a pretty dark gray, if you can't my meaning. It's not on the great side at all. It has some uses - if used well.... it's just not being used well. It is "just a tool" and like a sword or a gun, it is only an implement. "[Nouns] don't do evil, people with [nouns] do evil." and all that. That said, I just don't think we are morally ready to wield that level of power. That said, keep in mind I might not have a horse in this race. I'm more of the logical "tech-y" side of things, always looking for efficiency and usefulness in something. But I have far more artistic friends than logical-minded ones like myself. Heck, I've had the AI talk countless times with my brother's fiance (who is an artist) and she gets her dander up each and every time. It's an infectious kinda rage, too. I don't fully get it, but it makes enough sense to me why she would. And even without knowing people who would get affected by it, much of what I've seen done by it has this hollow emptiness to it. There's no heart in the art (heh), as each thing I've seen has this generic-ness to it that leaves me feeling disinterested in them whenever I see them, weird fingers or other discrepancies aside. Any pose or action just lacks the "warmth" brought about by an actual thinking person making the decision to choose that pose or action. I'm unsure if that means it needs more time to cook, if it should simply be shut down altogether, or if it needs to be scrapped and started over with a different foundational component (instead of "other peoples' art") to learn from.
one of the AI things i liked was in one of the games kaif player - uncover the smoking gun where AI was generated for the bots talking and responsing to questions
That horror game is somehow a worse version of Muzy, the previous 'bottom of the barrel mascot horror with toy guy gimmick'. At least Muzy has the funniest jumpscare where the green toy mouse just beats you mercilessly.
The graveyard keeper game is likely an experimental scam as well. There is an older, decently successful, title with the same name and I assume the dev was booking on that.
Kaiffy, I'd be grateful if you could pin this comment. There's so many comments from people who suffer from sleep paralysis under this video and there's a way to help these people wake up when sh.t goes wrong that works for most people. It did for me and I wish someone told me this earlier (my husband found this by pure chance online a few years ago and it worked the first moment I tried). There is a way you can wake yourself up and it works for most people. Here's how you do it: As soon as you realize something's wrong, don't try to move your limbs, _WIGGLE YOUR TOE_. Any toe. Your toes are sort of evolutionary excluded from the whole "paralyzed while asleep" thing and this tiny movement you're able to do can grow and shake that paralysis off. Literally. You start with wiggling a toe, continue to work your way up to your foot and by the time you can shake your foot, you should wake up. Just keep shaking. I really hope this helps you or anyone who reads this. I'll keep spreading this "life hack", because it sure improved mine.
Yeah the first "finding cats" game (Corrected by comments: Traveling Cats) got copied by scammers a lot :/ This one's pretty terrible, not only because of the AI but also they couldn't even get a full image so they just glued the same piece over and over, that sucks
Do you know who else is in Paris?
Was it not the "100 hidden cats" series?
Not sure if they are the orginal (they have the "Cats Hidden In Paris" game i think you are referencing), they are "Travellin Cats" and all their stuff is hand drawn.
@MrKittenAttack Got it, I couldn't remember for sure
In regards to the Hidden Cats game, the developer replied to his review. Its in chinese, but translated it says:
"Is this because the game took too long to find all the cats, so he was very angry?"
Theres three reviews, all negative but they only replied to Kaifs.
Edit - Magic Puzzle King has one too:
"AI is just a tool, just like photoshop, and photoshop itself also supports AI generation. AI does not mean laziness. Instead, more new art forms are represented. The voice against AI will surely be silenced in the rolling wheel of history."
Again, only Kaifs review got a response. They're a bit upset at him...
While AI is a tool, it does not exist to just do 90% of the work, most of the outcry over it isent because of using it, its because of the overdepency on it and the fact the cryptobros latched onto it. It reminds me of CGI, most shows around them were just made 100% CGI until Toy Story shown what CGI could actully do if effort was actully put into it, i could be wrong about Toy story being the one that did this but its the only one i remember.
AI bros suck
@@MifuneShio isn't it the opposite, CGI was seen as a tool only for big companies at first, and then ReBoot showed that it can be used for the weekly cartoons?
@@ten0fclubs70 I only remember stuff like Cubix,Reboot and the old PS1 intros like tekken, also im not pro-AI i just try to look at the positives and negatives and so far when its come to AI use I have only seen negatives because companies are either using it to scam,replace artists or just lower overall costs when it shouldent be that depended on at all.
"In the rolling wheel of history, my laziness will be vindicated" said the very very dedicated game dev
"The voices opposing AI will surely be silenced in the rolling wheels of history" is such a fucking villain, dystopian thing to say, and also, they're wrong, it may be easier for the causal bro to "ignore artists" but we artists will ALWAYS be opposing it unless it's done ethically and without harming the environment (Which I suspect will never be the case), we won't just accept it and especially we won't start using it, even if the AI-bro bubble may not see it, there will always be a group of people that oppose it until it's rightfully dealt with.
Anyway, amazing video Kaiffy! It genuinely makes me happy you're openly Anti-AI and supporting of us artists!!
Sleep Paralysis can make you see things from time to time yes. generally varies from person to person. Personally heard voices before/ seen shadowy figures but thats about all. freaked me out the first couple of times.
only had it once and i just went to back to sleep
I had it several times and every time the hallucinations were wild
First one (the most vivid I remember) was a small ufo that flew in through my window and started drifting around the room, like Tokyo drifting
Usually I can't open my eyes either, while other times its effected my memory and I've forgotten how reality works while stuck there. :p
as a kid i had sleep paralysis a lot, and there was a giant, menacing crab, that filled out the complete back half of my room. it would just stand there in the dark and look at me. sometimes coming closer, without me being able to move, or look away.
YOU ALSO HAD NIGHTMARES OF GIANT CRABS IN CHILDHOOD? @@retroferret3424
"The voices opposing AI will surely be silenced in the rolling wheels of history" ... the scariest part about this is, the realization when you lived through the rise of DLCs and predatory micro-transactions. The controversy fricking horse-armor for Oblivion was, and now it's one of the less bad ones. When games did not release with a plethora of game-breaking bugs because ... you know, they had to get burned onto a disk and it was not guaranteed that people playing the game have internet for downloading patches. When games came in full on boxes with goodies like a cloth-map, or figurines and stuff for normal price, before they switched to dvd-cases and started the collectors-editon-trend. Which is now a "pay 150 Euro for a pink left cheek skin and 3 days early access". When the "new" Simcity came out and we cried out against always-online.
The voices did get silenced by the wheels of time, and a new generation of gamers trained on the expectation, that all those things are just normal and how video-games are. :( I fear AI will be added to that pile.
ive got a background in it and art, and i dont know how you can copyright and sell a game that uses art frankenseined from artists that didnt consent. I think there will be a revolution with artists suing companies, and as soon as we win those, they will get scared. some laws will start happening, and theres already talk about laws being put in place. but since ai developed faster than anyone could have imagined, laws and rulings are waaaay behind, and need to be updated.
31:08 As for someone who experiences sleep paralysis often it is way worst than that, the game is too silent, where in in my experience everything is loud and all of my senses are overwhelmed also, you cannot move anything you are stuck looking at where your face is facing and hopes for the best that no entity created by my brain would go near or in front of my face, also even if I am not that religious, I am forced to pray for my dear life.
Edit: By way worse, the game is in easy mode and what I experience is nightmare difficulty
Time basically doesn't exist when it's happening to me, that happen to you?
I only had it once, but was facing a wall at the time so I never actually saw anything but the feeling of not being able to move at all even though your trying your hardest is a really horrible feeling.
I don't know if its sleep paralysis or what, but as a kid I'd wake up from these dreams unable to move. And it downright terrified me. More recently I had something like that happen and I started freaking out.
@@DatdudegilToo yep it's like you're stuck in that position for eternity praying it all ends
For me it's probably better because I don't see anything nor hear but it doesn't help. The feeling of helplessness, it's not a good one, especially after a nightmare, you try to wake up but you just lay there. Yours though is terrific , probably sleep paralysis is dependent on your ability to imagine. For example, you have one which is imagery, second feeling, maybe sounds, depends
4:24 AI generated games aren’t allowed on steam (or at least have to disclose it uses mostly AI generated assets) if I recall correctly that is.
Steam rules might just be you have to mark it as contains ai content, in which case yeah it should honestly not be allowed or have a big disclaimer saying it contains a large amount of ai generated assets.
I don't get all the hate for AI because I like seeing what AI can create and it's just cool how far technology has come and as someone who can't make art or edit photos well, it is a useful tool as well. Plus the whole "AI taking jobs" thing isn't true when people thought the same thing about computers or even cars, because we simply adapt to technology and make new jobs with it so I don't get the hate for AI when it is a useful tool for making things some might otherwise not be able to🤷🏼♂️

@@Slye_FoxThis 100%. I've seen some companies and individuals who are using AI for artwork by feeding a collection of their own artwork to a model. They then turn around and use this model to do certain aspects of their work for them, such as backgrounds or whatnot. I have absolutely no problem with this, as it's using a tool to speed up certain aspects of work.
What I do mind are the models that go out and steal the work of multitudes of artists to then turn around and spit out what boils down to stolen work.

I get sleep paralysis fairly often. I’ve never had the kind where I’m able to open my eyes and have them play tricks on me. When I experience it, i feel like I can’t breathe, but I can’t open my eyes or move to try to help myself. It’s pretty scary tbh it’s like I’m experiencing the last moments before death 😅
8:30 Fun fact about elevator design, the rapid compression of air from them falling creates a natural cushion near the bottom of an elevator shaft. There's a woman who fell I think it was 75 stories? She was injured but recovered.
WILD. Thank you for the fun fact!
From the times I've had sleep paralysis, each one was different from seeing stuff, hearing things and smells; but they all made my sense of dread shoot up. I know its in my head and all, but man does it fuck with you if you can't force yourself back asleep. Used to do that and just say to myself "Sleep is more important if I die it was just my time."
I dont think you are a old man yelling at clouds with the whole AI thing. Although AI can be used to help make some really cool art, its mostly used by people to be lazy, and scam. It doesnt help that AI uses Art stolen from artists without permission so it's morally grey. Making a whole puzzle game around it then charging money just doesn't feel right, especially getting all worked up over it. idk just my thoughts

@@fuzzyotterpaws4395 It's a sign of laziness. Instead of paying an artist to make the art, you just go to a machine that make a half-assed picture instead. People have also used AI to enter drawing contests and scam the judges and organization pretending that they drew the entries (look at Pokémon drawing contests for instance). They prefer to use a soulless algorythm than the creativity of a person. Also, AI "art" uses stolen creations without permission, so it's built upon theft and doesn't credit the original posters nor gives them any kind of compensation. Not a good basis if you ask me.
AI art will never compare to what a talented person can do, but people and corpos prefer to save some bucks than support artists cause greed. This can hurt little starting peers or lower their income because clients prefer AI slop. Lastly, it can discourage people from taking artistic careers because they might think it's not worth it if a machine can do it. This is why AI "art" is bad and should have never been invented.

I've had sleep paralysis a few times but I never got to have a ghost stalking me. It always was just that I couldn't move and could barely breathe. The last time it happened I kept trying to yell out and finally my wife came in and asked if I was okay because I was making weird moaning noises, which finally woke me up properly.
A friend of mine once told me that sometimes he would wake up and there would be sharks swimming in his floor, so I guess it's different for different people?
Something to note: when I'm having sleep paralysis I don't realize I'm having it until I wake up. The one time I did realize it I was like "okay I know what this is" and although it was still terrifying to not be able to move at least I knew that it would end at some point. Pretty sure I fell back to sleep and woke up normally later.
I got a sleep paralysis event once and it was the coolest experience I had... after I figured out I wasn't paralyzed.
Everyone keeps thinking of the hallucination parts as a required prerequisite, but about 25% of the cases don't have any-- like mine! So yeah, it's generally personal, because it's hallucinations.
My sleep paralysis experience started rough, because I woke up completely paralyzed, not even able to move or open my eyes. I tried REALLY hard to get past the "movement block" (long summary short, when you go to sleep a part of your brain "locks down" so you don't go around trying to move IRL because you're doing it in your dreams) and focused on trying to flex fingers. I managed a controlled twitch of my pinkie after WAY too long thinking it "louder" (it's what I'd do in lucid dreams to force the dream to bend and let me do something it didn't want me to do) and that confirmed I didn't get suddenly quadriplegic.
Until I confirmed I wasn't paralyzed medically, I had breathing issues that were just me stressing OUT. But after I realized "oh, THAT'S why it's called sleep paralysis!" my breathing evened out back to rest and I stopped feeling trapped.
It's actually really cozy as a state, when you're not panicking and stressed out and trying to fight it. Like being stuck RIGHT at the point before you conk out, but aware enough to appreciate it. I ended up falling back asleep after probably a few minutes of just lying there being cozy doing my impression of a ragdoll. 9/10 would go again, maybe without the paralysis scare.
@@neoqwertylucky bro, I’ve tried everything on TH-cam to experience sleep paralysis/lucid dreaming but to no luck :(
I had only paralysis once. I was sleeping on my stomach during that and I felt like someone was on top of me. I tried to struggle but was unable to. It lasted a moment and then it was over and I for sure couldn't go to bed after that scare xd
@@lu11aby my Nana told me one time that when she was a little girl she experienced sleep paralysis (and this is the only sleep paralysis she says she’s ever had btw) and in her sleep paralysis she saw a plane crashing down onto her house and woke up right when the plane hit, very interesting stuff y’know?
My first and only sleeping paralysis (so far) experience: my bedroom door is a sliding door in my apartment. When I was fully awake but couldn't open my eyes for some reason (and fully conscious), I sensed my bedroom door slide open. A dark shadow figure entered my bedroom. (Don't know how and why I could sense so much detail on him) A man was wearing a dressing hat, a grey coat usually worn on top of suits. He was getting closer. There is a tree outside of my apartment unit, and I thought he must've climbed up the tree and entered my unit (I always leave my patio door unlocked). My heart rate started increasing, and I started getting sweaty. I started roaring (not sure if I made the sound or not). I keep telling myself: open my eyes, open my eyes. Ahhhhh. Don't know how long had passed, my eyes suddenly snapped open. In short: no one was in my apartment. I was all alone. It was around 4 a.m., had roughly 5 hours of sleep. Couldn't sleep anymore after that, so I went for a walk (summer time). From this experience, I always lock my patio door now.
I think I'm the only person in the comment section who hasn't experienced Sleep Paralysis.
when i had sleep paralysis it was pretty similar though probably scarier…
but yeah, you are in a moment of being awake while still dreaming at the same time, which is why you can’t move your muscles.
i couldn’t move anything at all and i had this creepy “alien” monster thingy slowly approaching me and every time i closed my eyes (had to blink) it’d get closer to me and started crawling onto my bed and on my legs.
everyone experiences it differently of course, but yeah the point of it is that you’re still dreaming while being awake which is why you can experience “hallucinations” and can’t move anything at all.
actually having now seen the ending yeah i was getting crawled on just like the ghost was lol. (i was typing this while watching)

@@fuzzyotterpaws4395 It's because to be able to generate images, it steals from millions of artists who didn't consent, breaching their copyright and essentially creating things from the mangled corpses of our hard work, it also is horrible for the environment, do any ounce of research and you'll realize it isn't "just a tool" and cannot be compared to actual artistic tools, and I also don't understand why AI is being focused to take away human expression and creativity, but not remove actual dangerous and detrimental work.
Too answer the question about sleep paralysis is that you can hallucinate be unable to move due to the body being in a state of rem, and most of the time it only lasts for anywhere between 30 mins or longer depending on your state of exhaustion. So yes in a way it's accurate but everyone deals with something different, and sometimes it's not really scary but comforting. My reason for knowing this is I had a experience of this myself and I knew someone else who struggled with it to a much more intense degree.
When it comes to Steam games that use any form of AI art, from music to pictures to writing, it should need to be disclosed in the description, That way, people who don't want to support it won't get tricked into it.
I think that is already a requirement.
@@greywolf5590 If it is, it's not the way that it should be. Just saying "There's some AI content" isn't enough - what kind of content, how much, etc is needed. People are more likely to overlook some script writing than music or art, and one song is very different from a whole soundtrack.
it is, as of january this year i believe (?). underneath the 'about this game' section, there will be an 'ai generated content disclosure' section.
a paragraph from steam's statement on it: "First, we are updating the Content Survey that developers fill out when submitting to Steam. The survey now includes a new AI disclosure section, where you'll need to describe how you are using AI in the development and execution of your game."
Sleep paralysis for me makes me panicky. I want to scream, but I can't because I can't move my body, and i have a really loud ringing in my ears occasionally. One time, I did halucinate someone opening and closing my bedroom door, then a figure cloaked in shadows placed his hands through my chest, and I felt like I couldn't breathe. That was definitely the worst experience I've ever had, truly horrifying.
I have a very rare but recursive form of sleep paralysis, not really the scary sleep paralysis demon type, just I physically feel like I've woken up and begun walking around and almost rubber band into my bed, I also lucid dream though so I can tell when it's happening, but it's one of the few dreams that I have zero control over.
Valve did update their Agreements on the Developer/publisher side about AI Generated content and especially that it needs to be LEGAL. so maybe another legal case kaif can dive into in the gaming sphere? :D

Honestly, sleep paralysis is terrifying feeling like u can't breathe just seeing wat u see if it's real or a dream
All I got from sleep paralysis was a banshee wailing sound.

As someone who experienced some sleep paralysis, and that game represents like maybe 50% (based on my experience of course). The other 50%, lacks of voices and more realistic halucination. and It happens kind of shorter than the gameplay that you did www.
and Sleep paralysis makes you cant move or even move your head tbh. Sometimes won't even let you open your eyes for a while.
edit: Also, AI it is a tool, and Its not a new forms of art, Its blatant laziness. I see no lots of effort from the user or client to create the art. the AI did most of the work. Arts is any creative product of captured moment, sending a message, and express your feeling with effort, skill and personality. I ain't seeing any of those elements in AI.

The person falling from the ceiling. Id love to imagine she was casually chilling playing guitar, slips and thats why she falls through the house
The most consistent thing that happens to me during my sleep paralysis is its hard to breathe or cant breath manually which sends me into to panic mode. Its like waking where every part of your body is auto pilot besides your eyes and awareness, and cant turn on manual mode to move your body or breathe manually.
4:34 is the funniest fkn moment 😂😂😂 love u kaif
Mainly sleep on my side when I have sleep paralysis, couple things for my experience:
- Feels like I have my phone flashlight pointed in my face, I can only count 2 times when this happened that it feels like I left my phone flashlight on. Looking back, all I remember is a light.
- Unsettling feeling of not having mobility in my body, like I’m being buried under a heavy weight blanket and I can’t move my limbs. It’s worse when I move my toes (recommended form of getting out of it) and I feel like I’m in control of my body, but then I’m suddenly weighed down again. Happened 3-4 times in a night.
- My first experience gave me auditory and visual hallucinations, scared the f out of me. But now it’s replaced with a heavy sense of dread, and sometimes the feeling that I’m being watched.
sleep paralysis is no joke, experienced it years ago and what i saw was a small silhuetted demon like child, sitting close to my feet and slowly started reaching out towards them, i was FREAKING OUT, and eventually fell off the couch making the dogs run to me....... shiet was HORRIFYING
You're the only rat shaker for me
For sleep paralysis, I'm not sure I actually suffer from it? But I do have moments where I will be laying down and unable to move. I'll see and hear things moving about me, but my body refuses to look towards it. Things like hands gripping the side of the bed or curling around doors. Shadows moving on the wall that are just odd enough that you can tell it's not a natural shadow (More like a person's shadow). Noises are usually creaks, minor thuds, and scraping sounds. On rare occasions, it'll be a voice, breathing, or similar "Human" sounds.
Sometimes I'll be able to sit up, but unable to turn my head. Or if I turn my head, my eyes are locked to a specific spot.
Sometimes, it's just my legs I can move, or just my arms.
My cat will usually end up jumping on the bed and then climbing onto me, and that'll snap me out. It feels like when you're waking from a dream while falling, so you get that sensation when you wake up.
I'm still not sure if it's a dream state I'm in, or what. Sometimes I'll experience things, and then when I go to wake up, those things will happen (A door creaking open slightly at night, in the morning, someone actually opens the door to wake me up)
Sleep paralysis is honestly scary. I am fully awake and aware but cannot move my body or open my eyes or scream, but I can still hear. It can last for a couple of seconds or for minutes for me and I can have multiple instances of sleep paralysis in a night.
The hidden cats game on console are really good and made by nice people who love cats!
This one is an obvious scam AI rip off... It's kind of sad
0:18 is that the Falkirk wheel?
My sleep paralysis has included me feeling like a blanket was so heavy I couldn't breathe and one where something in the corner of my eye looked like someone was there but I couldn't move my head
I occasionally suffer from sleep paralysis... It varies from person to person, but with me, I become very aware of my own heart beat and breathing. Painfully aware. I also will sometimes hear either someone talking, or distorted music, despite no one else living with me.
Thankfully it's very rare, as it only happens if I'm on my back (side sleeper mostly) and only when I'm horribly sleep deprived, and can usually kick myself out of it before it goes on too long... I feel for those who suffer through the harsh ones.
Love this series ngl
That mascot horror game used a lot of maps that were exactly the same as the Backrooms games.
on the sleep paralysis question, the whole "normal" movement and seeing full faces and stuff doesnt exactly happen for me but ive heard of people who have very vivid visions. i have a nice wombo combo with another condition called Exploding Head Syndrome where it also manifests for people very differently. for me it sounds like a woman screaming right in my fucking ear and terrifies me everytime it happens. my sleep paralasis is more shadowy figures and slight movement like maybe youd catch a glimpse of something blowing in the wind and think it was a person or something moving. luckily ive only had a couple nights where both of these happen at the same time but those very few times are stuck in my brain. the EHS always happens when im still fully asleep and wakes me up but then i cant move no matter how hard i try and i see things looming near me like a horror flick and all my recently woken up brain can think is the screaming i just heard was whatever the fuck that shadow is in the corner. it feels like im going to have a heart attack everytime it happens and even when i can move im too terrified to do so. one time i was stuck in bed sweating bullets for about 5 hours until the sun lit my room up
my sleep paralysis has been mostly auditory. Mostly people/creatures screaming and I can’t move. Haven’t seen anything yet (and hope I won’t!)
30:02 yes this is what its like to have sleep paralysis its like that scary
That sleep paralysis game makes me think of the Joy of Creation when you play as the child
I have had sleep paralysis since I was around 6, from having it every night to having it once or twice a year been a god send. The shit Ive seen and the pain and horror is enough to make a horror movie out of :D From a demon opening up my door to just stand at the foot of my bed just looking at me while loud machine sounds,woman and babies crying and the whole room violently shaking and vibrating to a Resident evil licker look a like demon crawling onto my bed and ripping out my inside and I felt all of it. yep, it can be really really bad
I used to be plagued with sleep paralysis during high school. I can see around me but I can't move anything but my eyes. Never saw a sleep paralysis demon like all the other people though. It was just stressful not being able to move.
Thought I might share my experiences with Sleep Paralysis. I've only had it twice and that was within the span of the last year. The first time I was sleeping on a couch and had woken unable to move and at the time, other than my eyes I saw a dark figure standing over me. I had left the light on and could see my surroundings clearly. I had recognized it as sleep paralysis and tried taking rapid deep breaths to try and jolt myself out of the paralysis, I had tried experimenting with lucid dreaming ( I didn't really get anywhere with that) and had learnt a wee bit about it. After a few moments I had properly come about and was fine, found it a bit amusing though was a tad freaked out.
The second time was a few months back. I was in my bedroom this time, lights off and the walls are just painted cinder blocks essentially. This time I woke up seeing at the time a dark figure and I thought the brick pattern was like a lecture hall with people watching me. After a few moments it again passed though I think it lasted a bit longer that time around.
Those are my only experiences with sleep paralysis though I have had my fair share of weird things happening when tired and nearly asleep in bed such as hearing voices or music, though no visual hallucinations.
I've had sleep paralysis a handful of times and let me tell you the fear is uncontrollable, everything feels too loud but you can't hear what's happening, everything looks too dark but it hurts your eyes anyway, and the simple fact that you can't move a single muscle is despisable, only time i can remember having sleep paralysis I had my blanket over my head due to past experience and it felt like something was constantly pulling my blanket off of me to try and reach me (It felt like the blanket was moving really fast away from me but it never left my body) I could hear it calling out to stop hiding from it and all I could do was hope it wouldn't find me... I may still be a little traumatized by that even though it happened a few years ago. (Was also the most recent experience)
I played the hidden cats game on my phone and i got through about 5 different levels before being bored. They were just too easy to find because they stood out so much, but the backgrounds didn't look nearly as AI as yours.
11:15 i'm sorry but that just made me burst out laughing lmao.
I know you only glossed over it, but seeing the title "Graveyard Keeper" absolutely sent me. I've played the original Steam game "Graveyard Keeper", which is kind of a dark Stardew Valley... it's a shame that some cheap mobile game got to use that title as well...
I used to get sleep paralysis when I was a kid, I didn't really hallucinate or anything, I would just wake up with absolute certainty that if I make any noise whatsoever, some nameless formless mystery thing that is down the hall would hear and come kill me
My oven just went off to tell me my pizza ready at the same time as you announcing it's pizza time 😯
Thankyou!
The real horror truly is the Monday that cometh.
speaking of Ai and cat theres a game on steam called Catly that for some reason appear on Game award that has zero gameplay or what the gameplay might be
As someone with sleep Paralyzis. The shadow arm reaching at the foot of the bed and the face from above is realistic.
Furniture don't move. You can imagine things to move but not like this.
I had sleep paralysis at some point that was so bad I still believe the feeling of my bed being violently shaken for a split second felt WAY to real.
Oh yeah, also obviously the door opening and spooky women, come on man. First time? xD
you noticed the amogus but not the SCP card readers xD
reading all these sleep paralysis comments.. thanks god i only have "free falling through my mattress" which takes only one to two seconds
Valve should just hire Kaif to audit games
35:10 "Hey! How's it hangin?" :D
The real sleep paralysis is that response about AI from that dev. Yikes.
13:55 Elmer's Shampoo. Ah yes from the creators of Elmer's Glue. Lol
I’ve hear of that banana game from the thumbnail... a weird rng slot machine of sort where you roll a chance to get special limited steam items with each clicks, some worth nothing, some worth something. I remember someone approached my steam account cuz they were looking at my collection of items and when I asked if they wanted to trade anything, they sent an offer for 95% of my items in exchange for nothing, a quick dig showed that they had nothing except the bananas from that game and the only game it showed they had played was csgo(2?). It was weird, i think the person sold their entire inventory for those bananas
The 2 times I've had sleep Paralysis in my life (that I can recall) I've seen a PNG image of a Raticate, and I could feel something eating my big toe, describing the feeling would be graphic. When the paralysis ended I'd check my foot to make sure the toe was still there, it still is.
I am still confused as to why a Raticate of all things, and yes. I really dislike the bugger because of it.
Kaif, you don't need an AC for Banan, just leave it open. Click every now and then.
"I've turned the volume down"
HOW HIGH WAS THE VOLUME?!?
Painful levels
Yeah the sleep paralysis game is oddly spot on for lightly horrific sleep paralysis.
That sort of experience is an easy night for me when it happens. To date, I’ve:
Hallucinated that my room was covered in bees. Could hear them buzzing and could feel them crawling.
Hallucinated a creature on fire that spoke a language I didn’t understand.
Saw three shadows above my bed who then proceeded to stab me repeatedly.
Heard my parents voice coming from the tv. Part of the hallucination included seeing myself reaching out to them. My hand melted.
Hearing and seeing my door open. Something with long fingers was drumming along the wood. I could hear it.
The worst is when they mix with waking dreams? I was half asleep and hallucinated that I could move, just barely. But everytime I made it to my door, my eyes snapped open back in my bed, still experiencing paralysis. Then I would move again… snap back again… this loop felt like it lasted for hours. Maybe it did.
All in all, sleep paralysis hallucinations are on par with the worst trips I’ve ever had dropping acid. The worst part is feeling like you’re choking. Or feeling the muscle spasms but not being able to stop them.
I don't necessarily think you are yelling at clouds with the AI thing. I think it is a morally gray area... but even then its a pretty dark gray, if you can't my meaning. It's not on the great side at all. It has some uses - if used well.... it's just not being used well. It is "just a tool" and like a sword or a gun, it is only an implement. "[Nouns] don't do evil, people with [nouns] do evil." and all that. That said, I just don't think we are morally ready to wield that level of power.
That said, keep in mind I might not have a horse in this race. I'm more of the logical "tech-y" side of things, always looking for efficiency and usefulness in something. But I have far more artistic friends than logical-minded ones like myself. Heck, I've had the AI talk countless times with my brother's fiance (who is an artist) and she gets her dander up each and every time. It's an infectious kinda rage, too. I don't fully get it, but it makes enough sense to me why she would.
And even without knowing people who would get affected by it, much of what I've seen done by it has this hollow emptiness to it. There's no heart in the art (heh), as each thing I've seen has this generic-ness to it that leaves me feeling disinterested in them whenever I see them, weird fingers or other discrepancies aside. Any pose or action just lacks the "warmth" brought about by an actual thinking person making the decision to choose that pose or action. I'm unsure if that means it needs more time to cook, if it should simply be shut down altogether, or if it needs to be scrapped and started over with a different foundational component (instead of "other peoples' art") to learn from.
one of the AI things i liked was in one of the games kaif player - uncover the smoking gun where AI was generated for the bots talking and responsing to questions
What camera do you use for face cam? ive never seen one that follows you
13:55 Elmer's Glue Shampoo
LET'S GO ANOTHER VID
That sleep paralysis baddie...
The banana game is legit an NFT generator game, it's just the the NFTs are steam cards
Sleep paralysis sucks. But I can force my body to start moving, it just takes a few minutes.
Thank you for blessing us!
That horror game is somehow a worse version of Muzy, the previous 'bottom of the barrel mascot horror with toy guy gimmick'. At least Muzy has the funniest jumpscare where the green toy mouse just beats you mercilessly.
That's an insult to the proper graveyard keeper. Just sayin
As someone who's had sleep paralysis, it's accurate
The graveyard keeper game is likely an experimental scam as well. There is an older, decently successful, title with the same name and I assume the dev was booking on that.
The "100 ____ cats" games are fun asf lol
Next Video: I crashed the Banana skin stock Market
The cat is a lie.
How dare they call their game graveyard keeper. I actually loved the real graveyard keeper it was so amazing
AI does not mean laziness. But how that dev used AI, thats definitely laziness.
Kaiffy, I'd be grateful if you could pin this comment. There's so many comments from people who suffer from sleep paralysis under this video and there's a way to help these people wake up when sh.t goes wrong that works for most people. It did for me and I wish someone told me this earlier (my husband found this by pure chance online a few years ago and it worked the first moment I tried).
There is a way you can wake yourself up and it works for most people. Here's how you do it:
As soon as you realize something's wrong, don't try to move your limbs, _WIGGLE YOUR TOE_.
Any toe. Your toes are sort of evolutionary excluded from the whole "paralyzed while asleep" thing and this tiny movement you're able to do can grow and shake that paralysis off. Literally.
You start with wiggling a toe, continue to work your way up to your foot and by the time you can shake your foot, you should wake up. Just keep shaking.
I really hope this helps you or anyone who reads this. I'll keep spreading this "life hack", because it sure improved mine.
