    AI art has its issues but I’m about as worried of it taking over the movie industry as a whole as I am worried about the Singularity

    I think the legitimate concern is CEOs are stupid and will try, not that it will work.

    Burning through a medium-sized-country's worth of natural resources and GHG emissions in pursuit of a strong AI that still can't tell the difference between reality and hallucination. And then they put that AI in control of real-world decision making so long as it's only poor people who are fucked over by it.

    every person who doesn't like an acquired taste always seems to think everyone who likes it is faking it. it should be an official fallacy.

    the "no true scotch man" fallacy.

    I appreciate your thoughts on the money aspect of this, folks, but I very much was not intending to imply that the forums are due for imminent shutdown due to money. You can push that worry out of your minds, and if anything were to ever change, I would 100% make sure to give everyone a head's up about it.

    Weaver!

    Have you played with Cinders yet? If you haven't, she's a masterclass of bad luck. I have never seen someone die randomly so often. I am not convinced that if placed next to a building it wouldn't immediately fall on her. Then get swarmed by giant bugs.

    New appliance is a beast

    The default for toast was 4 minutes and after just two it was close to burning

    But also it was so utterly perfectly cooked. Like it was cooked by lasers. Not a single uneven bit.



    It was honestly kinda offputting 😵‍💫

    All these visual media generative AIs need something better than text prompt input to be used for anything other than a novelty. You couldn't describe what you want to another human being in 20 words. What hope does this semi-literate AI have?

    That and uh, legal resolution to the training data question.

    I think there are ones where you can draw/indicate visually where you want certain elements to be placed/moved to

    I swear I've seen that but I cannot remember from whom/where

    Oh you're not mistaken, these are available for single images already. One of the earliest usable demos of an image generator was one from nVidia where you got this MS paint like interface and could draw labels like "grass", "mountain", "sky", "water" and then it would take your MS paint doodle and turn it into a photorealistic render with close to the composition you provided. There was img2img for stable diffusion. Lots of others.

    This style of image "prompt" tends to be less mature and less publicized, despite being more useful and infinitely more likely to be integrated into a creative process. I think because they still take some creativity and artistic skill to use, which doesn't seem to fit with how like, OpenAI seems to want to sell their products.

    Anyway, I've not seen something similar for video yet but I'm sure it's coming. I'm just not really interested at all until I see it.

    3 day weekend starts now

    However 90 minutes wasn't nearly enough for our team's presentation to leadership, rip

    boss: "did it take [other colleague] only 90 minutes to do this?"
    admin/leadership guy: "yes"
    boss: "how???"
    alg: "well, he....gave less of a technical talk. He had, um...concise bullet points. It was just...less detailed. But you know...if your goal was to give a technical talk it was very good..."
    boss: "I just want you guys to know what science you are paying for!"
    alg: "yes, of course...haha look at me, navigating political discussions...you can have 90 more minutes next week"

    everyone's terrified to tell my boss she goes way too hard on the science lol
    tbh I am also afraid of telling her this so I get it!

    I mean this meeting also had the problem where it's like, leadership asked, oh, so you're asking these folks to add experiments? How did the budget go down then? me: "we cut a bunch of programmers from x subproposer" leadership: "ah ok" boss: "here let me show you the spreadsheet where you can see the names of each of the programmers and which ones we cut entirely and which ones went from 1-->0.5 FTE".

    noooo don't do that just move on pls

    CEOs have always been stupid and would pull some shit to save a buck.

    Given how costly AI is, at least for the quality stuff, you think they’re going to shell out $Texas for the facilities required to run and maintain a product that will likely either be obsolete or need to be upgraded just to be competitive every year or hell every quarter?

    I grok the concern about Studio Fuckery and such, but a lot of it smacks of doomposting and future tripping

    I have learned slowly and painfully that bosses do not care about the things you find interesting. They want a one slide summary and what you're asking for and then for you to go away.

    I’ve got concerns about it being used to do Analysis of Legislation or craft Briefs but there’s a ton of that that requires a human touch that AI won’t be able to replicate in my lifetime.

    I see it being used as a supportive tool rather than a complete and total replacement

    It doesn’t mean people won’t try to make it the latter but they’re going to have that blow up in their face.

    They will as long as they can convince VCs that they're close to the singularity (any day now).
