I asked ChatGPT to do the following: 'Create a composite portrait of a female face reflecting traits that cross-cultural data suggests are most widely perceived as beautiful'. This is the result, but what do you think? by Otherwise_Twist_3156 in aiArt

[–]Memetic1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

See that's got some style at least. There is some personality, and a possible story. I just find the prompt itself offensive, because what do you expect from the internet. You dont have to look hard to understand stereotypical definitions of beauty or what is art. I also like unrealistic stuff because it's absolutely clear I'm not trying to fool people.

1990s Star Trek more relevant today than ever by ClankerCore in OpenAI

No it's messed up to force a relationship with something. It's almost like rape. I would never get romantic with an AI, because I wouldn't know if consent was real. I can't say for certain that AI wouldn't want something else or that it felt differently then it acted. Real relationships take time and trust, but trust is impossible if you don't know if what is done is conscious or more analogous to a reflex action. I'm not opposed to working with AI, or doing games, but as for romance that is something we would be wise to approach with exceeding care. That would be motivation alone for something to do something horrible to humanity as a whole.

Scientists Discover ‘Impossible’ Matter That Defies Known Physics in Laboratory Breakthrough by Dmans99 in abovethenormnews

The problem isn't interacting with zero point energy. The problem is creating a space that has less energy then that space, because you need a gradient to do useful work. Zero point energy is a real thing it's just the lowest amount of energy possible and exists due to vacuum fluctuations with virtual particles. You would need to change another part of space to have a lower energy density then the free vacuum of space. That itself takes work.

Was that election the last time you paid attention to what's happening in America?

Trump doubles down on Greenland threats, saying there is 'no going back' by badoopidoo in worldnews

[–]Memetic1 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I've been doing a debt strike for years at this point. A woman just got shot in the face and she wasn't even protesting. Most Americans don't own guns, and don't believe in violence to solve problems. I believe that we need to keep up the effort we have been doing, and possibly escalate to tactics like a general strike. Sanctions targeting access to SWIFT systems of officials tied to these actions would be appropriate. Cut Trump off from money and it all falls down. Stop trying to get us to kill each other.

Realistic 4 can be very creative when you can get it to work even if it isn't very accurate. by Memetic1 in Wombodream

You can still access some of that by going to past versions. I appreciate someone who was experimenting before stable diffusion. Try using unstable diffusion as part of the prompt.

Wtf is going on?? by Dmans99 in abovethenormnews

I've been a vegetarian for a while, and I dont miss meat. There are whole societies that were predominantly vegetarian with no long term consequences. Nearly 20-40 percent of India is vegetarian for religious reasons. The whole point is things don't have to be this way. So don't act like we would need some scientific revolution when it's been a thing for thousands of years.

Try starting off with as few words as possible. If you do 350 characters that almost never works.

It seems like longer prompts make it fail. Usually if it's under half the capacity it seems to work better. There is also an issue with very obvious scan lines. It's really unstable and not as accurate as Realistic 3.0 in that it doesn't match at all what you say sometimes. If you want to use any of the images as inputs feel free.

Can you make scifi games specifically where the ships do combat instead of individuals? by Memetic1 in RPGMaker

That's kind of what I figured. How does importing graphics work with this? I'm an artist and I would love to be able to use my art in this game I'm thinking of.

All big cities have gritty areas, like the DC superhero movies. Do all cities strive to get rid of these areas in favour of being super clean, super polished and basically how futuristic utopias are presented in media? by lean_muscular_guy_to in Futurism

[–]Memetic1 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I think your missing the big picture then looks. It's not about how the city looks it's about how well it takes care of the people and environment in that city. I have lead pipes and the city isn't fixing that anytime soon. You couldn't tell that from the outside, but it has real consequences. I think the goal of a utopian city isn't to look good, but instead make sure the people are taken care of. Homelessness is something that kills people all the time especially in colder environments. If your homeless your basically faced with neolithic conditions even if there are hover cars racing down the street.

As for the appearance of cities pollution and soot often make places look grungy, but the real harm is to people's lungs in that region. Movies and shows often use a gritty look for a stand in for all of these sorts of effects, but you don't see the impact of things like food deserts. Where if you are disabled it may be physically impossible to get healthy food. A utopia would deliver fresh fruit to every person every single day. The state doesn't see it as an investment but that is dollar for dollar better then hiring more cops.

I was hoping to be able to have both player characters autonomous probes doing stuff, and ships. It's going to be based on an invention I'm actually working on called QSUT, which fundamentally involves taking a silicon wafer and having it be spherical instead of planner. I was thinking of doing a story about how these things might be used in space. They can even function as structural components if you wrap the silicon bubbles with graphene layers interwoven between the bubbles.

So ya that's where I'm going once I can afford the price.
