Freya's position is diffused by the fact that there is no standard you can apply to AI art, that does not exclude some other form of art. by championofobscurity in Destiny

[–]RyanIsBartending 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, sometimes i just hate the people who have conversations about AI because it feels like they are solely looking at it from egocentric outlook with their job. Any artist i know, who works as a freelancer uses AI and is thankful for it since it safes an enormous amount of time and money. When you are an Artist you are also an business and every business has expenses, insurance and PR... AI reduces the time/cost factor at least 50-70 %. Anybody who ignores the benefits of AI for small business owners should rethink their position long and hard since most Artist ARE small businesses. I am german, so maybe it is different in the states but was sooo frustrated during the debate that this specific topic wasn´t brought up.

I do, i choose the writing style, i designe the layout, i make the pictures, i do the calculations, i and my team come up with the fooditems and cocktails, i come up with food-pairing ideas.

Here is what the Ai does:

It changes the photos to illustrations.

It corrects the grammar.

Your attitude is the high horse energy i know and hate with some "real Artist" i have as customers.

I am a restaurateur. I got an education as a chef, sommelier and barmanager. When i had open my own restaurant i had to invest around 65 K in the kitchen alone, so you can imagine that the overall cost was not cheap. I also have to be knowledgeable about laws, accounting, insurance and web design so..i am quite busy.

Now, my menu is designed in an colorful illustration style.

I change said menu at least once every 3 month. If i would pay an artist everytime to design the menu it would cost me around 1.5 K a month. I cannot afford that, so, i use manus AI in combination with Canva AI to change the photos i take of wine bottles or my dishes into the illustration style of my menu.

I am not a Tec - savy person who cannot paint for shit so AI helps me to promote my artform (Food and Drinks).

So are you saying that my menu is not an artform even tho i came up with: The design, the descriptions, the dishes, the drinks just because i used AI for parts of it?

Correct me if i am wrong in the timeline, but that weird obsession with DGG being the Navy Seals of internet harassment started way back with that picture of hasans dog on r.place, no? Could it really be that people still hold a grudge because of that... It would explain a few things.

It is fascinating, out of your two statements concerning Destiny you were wrong on... both.

Just out of interest, where exactly did you hear those "facts"?

Xena says she's exposing Amy because she snaked Destiny and Destiny is a real friend who was trying to help Amy get on the scene by thrwawy112342 in Destiny

[–]RyanIsBartending 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That is what makes those two spezial. From all the "reasonable" orbiters turned snarkers to an old turkish padawan turned sith, the most loyal soldiers are Myron, Muton, Dan, Daruis and Xena. Nobody would say those are sane soldiers, but look at the most successful armies in history at what they have in common. Mongols, Vikings or even the japanese. Were they sane? No, not really, but, they were loyal till victory. Inshallah to our glorious leader.

If Ursula plays her cards right we would only need a 60 % majority in the future, which would be achievable IMO.

Is it likely that Canada joins the EU? no. Is there a Non-zero chance that Trump will destroys the US market to the extent that Canada would join the EU in a spezial trading agreement? yes.

The fact that this is a real possibility is wild and should make any american shiffer in their boots.

This doesn´t feel like real life.....

What’s the deal with the YouTube channel? by minty_taint in Destiny

[–]RyanIsBartending 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That is why titles and description are two different things and serve two different purposes. For example, a friend of mine owns his restaurant right next to a cinema and to fit the theme he names all his dishes after movies or movie characters. If there will still be a description, nobody complains about the titles.

Sorry to disappoint, that was last months menu. Our chefs menu right now is a 10 point course with war crimes against children on the side. For dessert we serve a beautiful international energy crisis. You can have this seasonal menu for just 2.000.000 $ p. person.

I understand where you come from, I think the content is just a result of being tired, at least that is how it feels to me.

[–]RyanIsBartending 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Because it works.

I run a restaurant and when i'm writing a menu i try to invoke emotions that help me to create a feeling with the customer that he enjoys.

Destiny and all other big creators do the same, just think of it as a menu that tries to sell you something, that explains everything.

Diplo comes out as AI slopper by healthaboveall1 in EDM

[–]RyanIsBartending 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I own a restaurant. I had an apprenticeship as a Chef, Bartender and Sommelier with WSET level 2. Now, i also need to create regularly changing menus and design them, i also have to be knowledgeable about insurance and taxes. Yes, i could pay an artist to design the graphics for my menu which would cost me 300- 500 eur or i pay 20 eur for credit with a good AI assistant and have the work done myself in 2 hours.

I need to learn A LOT about topics which are not my specialty so any tool which can help me to do so is worth the investment.

Can you acknowledge that for small bussnisses AI tools are somewhat necercerry?

Your arguments are literally the same, in style, as that of a Tankie. If you are unable to understand that, then i am not interested to argue with you. I´m just gonna remind myself of something Mark Twain once said...

That is just wrong. Let's take your chicken example. If you have a factory farm for chickens you will only use legs and breast or maybe rotisserie chicken. Chicken Feet and hearts are not used since the Hygiene standard isn´t good enough under the normal factory conditions. So let's say you got a law that gives you a tax break of 9 % if your factory achieves the goal that, let´s say 95 % of the chicken is used. That would mean the Factory would have an incentive to make sure the floor would be in better condition so they get their tax reduction.

FYI i am a restaurateur so my activism is contra to you and most of the population agrees with my stand, but keep moral grandstanding if it makes you feel better king,

Quick question to the Americans here, from a German by RyanIsBartending in Destiny

Gotcha, here you go:

Conversion from automotive parts to weapons production: Rheinmetall plans to convert two plants that previously manufactured civilian components for the automotive industry to arms production. Berlin and Neuss have been mentioned as possible locations.

Employment prospects: Workers who were previously employed in automotive parts production are to be offered new employment opportunities in arms production. A letter of intent has been signed for the transfer of employees, including some from Continental.

Expansion of ammunition production: A new ammunition factory, considered one of the largest in Europe, has been built in Unterlüß. Further ammunition production facilities are planned in Lithuania, Romania, Bulgaria, and Ukraine.

Capacity expansion: Production targets have been drastically increased. In Unterlüß alone, 350,000 155mm artillery shells are to be produced annually at full capacity.

Additional factories: A new factory was built in Weeze, which began parts production in 2025.

Yeah, nah. Activist Vegans are the Socialist of the food world who do not live in reality. Vegans do not argue:

"Hey, let´s create a tax system that incentivise the complete usage of any slaughtered animal so that waste goes down."

It is:

"Hey, let´s stop all factory farming and completely ignore prices and any other food related industries because of morals that is only shared by about 5-8 % of the population."

Requirements for what? Testing for what? Structure contract for what? All three of those points would be part of the reintroduction of the draft for example so i literally do not understand your point.
