When your dream home is AI
Oh no, the house you liked on Facebook is AI-generated! In this video we get into AI houses and where they're getting their inspiration. Connecting it back to Gothic Revival houses and Folk Victorian styles these photos are imitating. And bring right into real estate trends and what it means if your dream home isn't real.

    I see too many of these when I go on pinterest now... I wish they wouldn't constantly use AI stuff. 2 years ago, I searched up "cottagecore kitchens" and nothing was AI, I got actual aesthetic photos. The AI ones are cool for art inspiration, but they're basically stealing photos. We need to stop this!

    Me and my family have a little bingo card for each thing the celebrities say/do. Naked pictures/paintings in the bathroom. Mandatory bar (and acting like their alcohol addiction is super fun/quirky). "I don't use this but I had to have it." "I never cook in this massive kitchen." "This is where the magic happens." "This totally normal thing is super quirky of me to have." Hyper focuses on the race of some artist they 'admire'. Those stupid art pieces on the walls that are just a lit-up square. Paintings of themselves on the walls (usually nude). Big bowls of fruit (I don't hate this one, since they usually call out the fact that it was placed there for the video). There are a few videos I don't mind because it's an actual house (not a mansion) and you can tell it's actually lived in/had personal touches throughout.

    When I first moved into the apartment I'm in now, I HATED the lighting. We had gone out and bought the same bulbs my parents used in their home, but I couldn't figure out why it looked so horrible in my home. Well, thankfully my cousin is a theatrical lightning designer and immediately had the answer for me- get rid of the "daylight" LEDs, change the lumens, and change the tone of the color. BOOM! A wonderfully warm toned home that feels very cozy and inviting. My house has all of those shadows and contrasts and I love it.

    It's pretty interesting to me how they mentioned the kitchen being the most frequented room in a house. Especially from a NT (neurotypical) perspective that makes sense. My mom is NT and my dad got diagnosed ND (neurodivergent) later in life so I grew up in a home where that very much was the case. But now in my thirties, being ND and living together with my ND partner we both have our own rooms where we spend most of our time instead of the kitchen.

    9:49 I'm not sure how much of this is 100% historically accurate but in Slovenia we're taught that Venice was built using wood from our forests, so it feels kinda funny that this celeb is in awe of her table made out of ~wood from Venice~ and probably thinks it's fancy because of it, when there's a chance that it might just be made from a few tree trunks from Slovenia (and an average American celebrity probably doesn't deem our country very fancy and cool).

    Echo! Echo and fire alarm beeping. That's what I notice mostly in those house tours. EVEN WITH MUSIC ARTISTS! You'd expect them to have some sense of accoustics, but they look like to walk through them as if it's theirs to show, but not live in. Thanks @kendragaylord for this wonderful video. It's also baffeling how people fill up the spaces, or basically can't. I have to laugh every time their blogs 'at home' (read: in their house shaped studio) are interupted by loud beeps of the fire alarms, screaming out for fresh 9 volt batteries. Even if the celeb would have such a battery, they'd probably not be permitted to change them at 20 feet without a hard head and full climber harness, with health & safety laws and such. All I see is virgin white, air tight caulked boxes with little heaps of personal detritus like travel cases and doggy bags on oversized furniture that misses the point of its usage.

    My sister and I used to build our own dollhouses for our Barbies out of a chair and books, and use VHS tapes as beds and sofas. We'd spend a good half-hour building our sets before starting play. Every time they were different, and it's something I look back on very fondly. I did have an actual wooden dollhouse built for me by my grandfather, but it was too short for Barbie, so it was a house for my Beanie Babies.
