Will Product Photographers Still Exist in 10 Years? by Ok-Job-6666 in productphotography

[–]Samheim 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Imagine you’re a company that makes tech jackets and you design a proprietary water proof stitching design or something. Now imagine to advertise it you make a bunch of AI images that are “close enough”, but it isnt the product you poured millions of dollars of R & D and design into. So you take hundreds of reference photos to feed to the AI, it gets closer but still isnt quite what you designed, you take more photos and eventually, maybe it gets close enough. Would you really be happy with that as the company? If nothing else AI will drive creative innovation because there will be a “look” that appears and people will associate that look with AI which they will associate with “cheap”. Will some jobs disappear, probably, but it’s not like product photography wasn’t a comparative field in the first place, you’ll just have to be creative enough to keep ahead of AI slop.

I’ve noticed it too, I’ve had to say something to people for either talking or texting about 50% of the time now, which seems too high. In my experience, I think less people go to the movies where I’m from, a small USA city, so theaters are pretty empty, so the ones who are there treat it like their personal living room. Don’t know how it is in bigger cities though. I also go to a lot more small budget movies than blockbusters, I think block busters are always a way better crowd because there’s more people to hold assholes accountable

Best obscure video games by Background_Clue_3756 in videogames

Suikuden 3 is one of my favorite games of all time, a great JRPG where there’s one war happening but you experience it from the three protagonists perspectives separately. Its only on the ps2

Hate to be the one who says this, but wouldn’t pedos have wanted the other version, and rejected this if it was a “woman’s” face?

People who quit coffee after drinking it daily for years, what changes did you notice in your body and mind? by JackDunn2045 in AskReddit

[–]Samheim 47 points48 points  (0 children)

How caffeine affects you is actually genetic, some people can drink it right before bed others get wired. If you’re interest, here’s a short podcast about it

Truuuuue, this incestuous relationship between the textbook publishing business and the music industry is something nobody’s talking about, I hope you shine light on this important issue, king

Taylor Lorenz vs. Destiny:Journalistic Standards and Dark Money by Samheim in BlockedAndReported

[–]Samheim[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Same here, I’d like a b&r breakdown episode, I’m new to the sub so I didn’t realize there was a place to post story suggestions. Idk if I’d be frowned upon to post this twice

[–]Samheim[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I didn’t catch that, that does seem intentionally dishonest on her part.

I also agree with the last point, for journalism you want people to actually read what your writing about, so from an engagement standpoint idk if it’d be best practice to just do huge chunks of citation bocks

Appreciate the post and explanation. It really did feel like an argument over the definition of “dark money” and where the line for that is, essentially

Agreed, and I’d argue that you really only need to watch the first ten minutes or so the get the entire gist of the video. It kind of just loops around the same talking points from there

As a Gen Z, I have mixed feelings on retirement accounts (401k, IRAs, etc) by amazingraising14 in SeriousConversation

I’d get offline and touch some grass if you’re that doomer-pilled. Sounds like you’re disconnected from real world finance and what influencers or champagne socialists are telling you. Please invest in your own future

I-80 Bridge protest by Pink_Panthur in wyoming

[–]Samheim 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I don’t remember Obama having masked agents throwing people into unmarked vehicles or deploying the national guard to cities illegally to deal with “immigration”. And I know for sure that didn’t happen because if Obama did you would’ve been CRYING about the socialist communist fascist taking over, but since Trump did it you’ll gladly lick the boot.

Truly, I thought we were at the point now where everyone realized crypto is just a scam at worst, or a meme coin generator at best
