Alan Watts: “And So, One By One, People Drift Away”

Update: This Is Fake AI Alan Watts

A reader emailed and said he thought this was AI generated. Indeed, it’s AI generated and there’s a disclaimer at the bottom of the video description:

Disclaimer: This channel is not officially associated with Alan Watts or his estate. The content shared here is inspired by the teachings and philosophy of Alan Watts, with the intention to motivate, inspire, and encourage personal growth. All views expressed are those of the creator and do not reflect the official views of Alan Watts or his family. Please seek out his original works for deeper exploration of his teachings.

I’m actually wading through so much AI generated material now that it’s exhausting. In addition to people with good intentions sharing nonsense and people with bad intentions sharing nonsense, AI is like a nonsense hydrogen bomb.

Having listed to probably hundreds of hours of Alan Watts decades ago, when I listened to this, I thought, “I haven’t listened to Alan in a while, maybe this will be interesting…”

And, it’s fake.

The irony is that I just posted an AI generated video about AI being able to fake things called, This Film Is Lying:

So it goes…

Official Alan Watts

Most (maybe all) of the talks are available for free if you want to spend a few seconds searching for them. The older the date of upload, the more likely they are to be real, I suppose. *shrug shoulders*
