First step of https://t.co/aA1UYhyBDu is to audit my own creations and collection. The short version is that we have a lot of work to do beyond just Foundation to preserve all of our art. None of us are immune, even the best of us have things to fix. Long version below. ——— For what I've created... I need to move all the work that I created on https://t.co/k5K5EIMIDC to IPFS. Only one collection (Frens) was on IPFS, the rest are on Bueno’s servers (Frens2, Circle of Frens, Circle of Frens2). My Frens collection seems to have dead IPFS links, but I think it’s due to it using NFT Storage, which uses Filecoin for long-term storage and so it does not provide immediate access even though the files may still be there. I noticed my release Anthrocinematica on Braindrops has the metadata on https://t.co/VtIzshQvGF but the images and animation media files are on IPFS. For what I've collected... Many PFPs have dead links for their metadata and images, like Bad Bunny (not the musician but PFP collection). I think LonelyPop PFP collection used NFT Storage so it also first appears like a dead IPFS link but I think it eventually loads. Quantum Unlocked has some dead links due to the https://t.co/Z4K1XBNbIS site no longer operational. The “Every Day is a Gift” collection metadata URL points to https://t.co/nsP4pJER0c which is no longer live. I’m working with @justinaversano to fix this. Also the Doppelgänger series Justin did with Kim Asendorf has the image link pointing to a cloudinary account, which is no longer active, but the animation URL is IPFS, so the actual main work has been stored properly. @cathsimard_'s "Blue Hour Adventures” NFT have dead links for their metadata and image URL, since the metdata points to https://t.co/Up0a8hFTLj which is longer operational. @shavonnewong_’s “Love Is Love” has IPFS for the metadata and the images, but those IPFS files do not seem to be accessible. @mmerch Egg Collection has the metadata pointing to https://t.co/XbNNbT9bNU which is no longer live. @TheMetaScapes AI landscape project’s metadata is pointing to a serverless function that crashes (https://t.co/Yy5RCfR8G6) “nyc365 journey to the unexpected.” by @barrylsutton has the metadata pointing to https://t.co/OkJQE0PrlT which is a dead site. "Halloween in Brooklyn” by @joeyldotcom (worked with @TransientLabs) has IPFS files that are no longer accessible. @mpeyfuss is already working with JoeyL to fix this. There are many https://t.co/WhTdZO4Knu or https://t.co/KFbaOe8pRl links (which I think is OpenSea’s CDN run by Cloudflare) that don’t work, like for Cath Simard’s “Blue Hour Adventures” and Metascapes. There are also many IPFS files that are referred to with URLs, so you have to extract the IPFS IDs from those URLs. I did also find some arweave IDs which did not resolve. “This Is Also A Call” by @dustinrabin could not find the data for the arweave links for metadata, image, animation. “Mirror Mirror” by @aylaelmoussa, the arweave link could not resolve the metadata. I’m working with Ayla to figure out how to fix this. Also even though the HTTP links may work, it is notable that many NFT collections do not point to decentralized storage but they point to their own servers or Google/Amazon. Notable examples are: LIFT/Quine (@artblocks_io) points to https://t.co/N5Kq1NIt6J Pendulums (@benstraussphoto @TransientLabs) points to https://t.co/Dmhva1aVTd Opepen (@jackbutcher @jalilwahdat) points to https://t.co/nteauXlEDf @MeebitsNFTs points to https://t.co/STHL21lWPF Issues (@deltasauce @jared_poz) points to https://t.co/hOLUNG2DR1 @braindrops_art points to https://t.co/lTyb5Ld8XQ De La Naught (@fellowshiptrust @PUBLIKFRUIT) points to https://t.co/50bLDntmIA for image/animation (but metadata is on IPFS). This is only an audit across what I’ve personally collected, so as I start to open up my tool to more people over the next week, I’m sure we will discover more. Also, if you look at the collections with dead metadata links on OpenSea, you will see all of the images and metadata, but it is because OpenSea cached it, not because it is on decentralized storage. This is not going to be a one time fix, but a long term commitment to digital art preservation.

🚨 STOP PAYING FOR VIDEO AUTOMATION COURSES. SOMEONE PUT EVERY FFMPEG COMMAND YOU WILL EVER NEED ON GITHUB FOR FREE. ↳ Udemy FFmpeg course: $20 to $85. ↳ Freelancer to write one automation script: $50 to $200. ↳ Cloudinary video transformations: $89/month. ↳ Time wasted on StackExchange: priceless. 1,300 people already starred this. I almost missed it. Here is what it actually does. It is a single file. Every FFmpeg command you need to automate video, categorized, explained, copy-paste ready. Social media crops, subtitle burning, audio mixing, speed changes, Ken Burns effects, GPU flags, jump cuts, slideshows, thumbnails, storyboards. All of it. The part that got me is how it is built for AI. Every command is structured so you can paste it straight into Claude or ChatGPT and say "modify this to do X" and it works. No more digging through 10-year-old StackExchange answers. What is in it: ↳ jump cuts and silence removal commands ready to drop into any pipeline ↳ social media cropping for vertical video, horizontal, thumbnails, all formats ↳ Ken Burns slideshow from static images with crossfade ↳ GPU acceleration flags for Nvidia, Intel, and AMD ↳ subtitle burning with custom fonts and styles ↳ audio mixing, crossfade, normalization, format conversion ↳ every command runs instantly using sample files stored online. no setup needed Free. Forever. MIT licensed. I have been paying for this knowledge one freelancer at a time. I feel like an idiot. ( save this )

A Chinese guy spent $20 on an AI video workflow and claims he can replace anyone in any video. He also recorded a full tutorial on creating your own AI avatar. At first, he was just trying to avoid editing the same clip by hand over and over again He spent $20 on the API credits Then he uploaded one normal video and one picture of the character he wanted n8n sent both files to Cloudinary Cloudinary turned them into clean links Wan 2.2 took the video, took the image, and rebuilt the person inside the clip The face changed The body stayed The movement stayed The camera stayed Then he realized this is not a face swap tool anymore It is a machine for making 100 versions of the same video AI is getting scary because now the product is not the video The product is whoever you put inside it
