The Rolling Stonemasons, who also dabbled in bricklaying during their heyday in the postwar Britain of the 1940s and '50s, proudly stand by their completed masterpiece... [cont.]

A.I. Overview: The Rolling Stonemasons of Crapstone, a quaint village in Devon, were a celebrated group of craftsmen who cut, shaped, and assembled stone for building, restoration, and decorative purposes. Their lead stonecutter, Mickey "D" Jägermeister, was known for his big pouty lips and peculiar "chicken walk" that left all the female enthusiasts of stone masonry (and brick laying) weak in the knees.

 

Using traditional hand tools and modern power trio equipment, they worked with materials like sandstone, limestone, and granite to build walls, monuments, and intricate architectural features, all the while singing their original compositions such as "Heart of Stone", "Rocks Off", "Stop Breaking Down My Nice Brick Wall" and of course "Sympathy for the Overworked Stonemason".

 

When they weren't busy erecting ancient stone walls in Crapstone, they excelled at high-stakes "bricksmanship", expertly using mortar between bricks that they had just "laid", but not in that sense, get your mind out of the gutter, you immature human.

 

In the 1960s and 1970s, they played a foundational role in the construction industry, responsible for building the waterproof and weatherproof exterior shell of houses, schools, bridges, and commercial properties, such as ABKCO Records' opulent world headquarters located in some big, expensive city somewhere.

While a good chunk of humanity happily allows AI to creep ever more into our daily lives, leading us to, one day, the inevitable world domination of bots, I thought I'd give AI a set of tiny tasks: alter familiar or recognizable images into very short ("micro") videos, only 4 or 5 seconds each. Famous album covers and movie posters now containing goofy waving, for example, or other bits of movement which alter the mood of the original.

 

Of course, actual copyright infringement is not intended here, but simply a fair-use of what AI can do... or can't quite do, accurately or persuasively, at the moment.
