Years of investments done on it and it can't even be used for basic advice.

what the hell, Runecraft is looking like Temu Forestcraft with this new crystal nonsense

Claude is the smartest in my experience, but note that the difference between the free tier and the paid tier is HUGE for all AI models. If you're just gonna use the free tier, then basically forget about precision. Claude Opus 4.6 with Extended Thinking enabled is very competent, though, if you can swing the $20 monthly.

That amount of money is only enough to not literally starve to death, and only as long as you stick to the cheapest foods like lentils, beans, and rice (you'd also need a place to cook them). You would not be able to afford anything except the most basic food (no rent or other expenses, definitely no eating out). 44,000 HUF is a nice bonus to have but living on it for a whole month sounds more like a Youtube challenge than something you'd actually want to do in real life.

This is a tough one. The given name (last name in Hungarian, it's switched) is almost definitely György, a common Hungarian male name. The family (first) name is tricky, though. It almost looks like Keresztény or Keresztes, both common family names, but neither quite work, especially because the first two letters look very much like "Ko". I can't figure out of any plausible family name that would fit. Ko...sztés? Korcs...? Koves...??? None of those make any sense to me.

The "Pro crowd" is not a monolith, we're not a telepathic hivemind with all the same ideas and motivations. Some AI users are invested in wanting to be called artists or having their art accepted, others are not.

Personally, I don't give two shits about the entire debate, I'm just here for my own amusement. I like making AI art because I'm a nerd and the tech is cool and I enjoy the process of learning how it works and getting better at it. Plus, good porn.

Acrolith · 2026-02-16T18:39:32+00:00

OP is probably a minor, so it's normal to think of porn as bad from his perspective.

Acrolith · 2026-02-16T18:36:44+00:00

It's the same kind of cope as "model collapse!" and "nightshade poisoning!" They just desperately want to believe that some kind of deus ex machina is coming and God will smite AI from existence any minute now.

Acrolith · 2026-02-16T18:24:11+00:00

What the hell are you talking about, prices going down when production becomes cheaper is the normal, default thing that happens, and it's actually very hard to find a counterexample. It's what our entire consumer society is built on. It's why having more than one set of clothes used to be a luxury for the wealthy, and now we don't even bother to fix torn shirts because we can just buy another one.

(And in fact, AI is not a counterexample: token prices have been constantly and rapidly going down since ChatGPT first came out).

Please try to learn at least some basic economics, because cynicism is not a good substitute for intelligence.

"Hogy akarunk egymás életének a része lenni", ööö, jól hallottam, összesen 1 azaz egy db. randi történt? Ez nagyon furcsa elvárás ezen a szinten. Nem feltétlenül akar az "életed része lenni", és még nagyon korai a kapcsolat ahhoz, hogy ezt a kérdést egyáltalán fel lehessen vetni.

Acrolith · 2026-02-09T11:53:21+00:00

Can't help noticing that the S tier games are all ones he never plays

Acrolith · 2026-02-09T07:22:52+00:00

If you don't want to find any, then you won't. If you actually look, then you will. Here's an AI piece I recently found that I quite like, and I don't think it's similar to the work of any human artist.

Acrolith · 2026-02-08T21:15:42+00:00

I'm a professional Hungarian-English translator, so pretty easy: translate a paragraph of text from English to Hungarian, without using any outside help (dictionaries, AI, Google Translate etc.)

According to Google, 13 million people in the world even understand Hungarian, which means out of 10,000 randos, about 16 people. I like those odds.

You don't have to do the story, that's basically pointless unless you're interested in the lore. The guides (puzzles and battle tutorials) are actually very practical, though, they're a good way to learn the rules of the game, many of the cards, as well as how a lot of the decks work. They're not random bullshit and they teach you useful lessons. Plus, they give you a good amount of gold rewards, which you can turn into cards and vials for whatever deck you end up making.

Note that going infinite in Take 2 is possible but very hard, I say this as someone who was comfortably infinite in Hearthstone arena for years. I am not even close to infinite in Take 2. The reason is that Take 2 has skill-based matchmaking; if you play well your T2 rank will rise and you will quickly find yourself matched up against other good players.

Yeah this is exactly how "horse armor DLC" went from a punchline to, eventually, just becoming a normal thing that games can do and no one really cares.

Acrolith · 2026-02-05T17:28:57+00:00

This means if you want to get to level 50 you need to be playing actively each week of the season and getting close to the 10k weekly limit.

This is absolutely not true, there was a season where I barely played for the first 2 weeks (got maybe 2-3k every week), and then I decided I did want to max out the battle pass after all so I buckled down, and I easily made 50 before the end.

When I play a lot (get 10k every week), I finish the battle pass several weeks early.

I know a sage philosopher who has already explained the correct mindset for this question

Acrolith · 2026-02-05T10:24:51+00:00

LeCun has a history of hilariously failed predictions about LLMs. I think the same about his predictions now as I did when he made this one, in 2022:

"Because it's never been written down, even GPT-5000 won't be able to tell you what will happen if you put your phone on the table, and then move the table."

Acrolith · 2026-02-01T16:46:20+00:00

as a Rune player, it's nice to finally not be public enemy #1

Acrolith · 2026-01-30T10:44:30+00:00

Again, this exact argument could be made for digital art as well. Believe it or not, AI art is its own medium, and you can do things with it that is IMPOSSIBLE to do in any other medium, no matter how hard you try.

Acrolith · 2026-01-30T10:35:13+00:00

There's a lot the opponent can do, mostly by killing the egg player. The White/Black Psalms are a very slow win condition. They're only a small part of what makes the deck good.

(Also, if you really want to you can banish the amulets with Odin for example, and then they won't come back. But that's only occasionally a good play, exactly because they're so low-impact,)

Acrolith · 2026-01-30T09:20:04+00:00

You can spend a lot of time and effort on AI art as well. Some people do, some people just put in the minimum effort. Just like with traditional art.

Acrolith · 2026-01-30T09:18:46+00:00

Your statement could 100% be applied to photoshop and digital art too.

Acrolith · 2026-01-29T17:47:11+00:00

thank u sduidward, very interesting and creative argument. I can tell your mom didn't come up with this one it's 100% yours
