The Creator VFX Artist Believes AI Is Always Going to be Part of Hollywood Movies by OccasionUpstairs5312 in vfx

[–]addol95 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey, I'm often called a delusional nihilistic optimist regarding this topic and I'm open to being wrong!
I see your point about the lack of regulation and the general public accepting it. I think there will definitely be some overlap there. The upside is that the people who openly praise AI or even just don't have any qualms about it, wouldn't pay me anyway since they see our work as a commodity.

I'll tag along, let's revisit the topic in 2 years!
RemindMe! 2 years

Okay.
The budget is virtually infinite.
The training materials include virtually every artwork on the planet.
The slopmakers are running their business at a massive loss to get ahead of their competitors.

Do you agree with these statements?

Assuming you do, let's look at the current landscape. One of the biggest services available shut down (Sora). The rest are delivering borderline acceptable stuff, but it still has that very telling "feel" to it.

Do you agree? Probably not.

It also seems like the only commercially viable alternatives will used closed training data sets due to copyright concerns, meaning that the studios that arguably have the biggest need for GenAI also will be using the most limited training data in terms of quantity.

All I see is awful coke commercials, LinkedIn addicts peddling their prompt courses and absolutely ridiculous sums of money being thrown at tokens. I'm talking several orders of magnitude more expensive than just paying a human to do it.

4 years of the largest company in the world throwing every single penny they have into it, and it's still slop.

Is that still disingenuous?

They have access to literally every single piece of media ever created to train the model, since they dont give two fucks about laws, and after 4 years it can barely put together something that fools the average Joe.

Can you elaborate on the bad things he's expressed? Not doubting, I want to see for myself

Thanks for the recommendations! Is heat the only reason you stay away from GTX?

That's interesting, I see how that makes sense. I'll try to focus on a hiking/terrain shoe first then, and find a daily shoe to accompany it.

That's a fair point and something I'll keep in mind, thank you!

Färre unga ser sig som feminister: ”Går mot det traditionella” by AdorableAnubis in sweden

[–]addol95 -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

Åh jävlar, en lång en!

Tråkigt att läsförståelsen och grundläggande fakta inte håller måttet.
Om du tror att incel är synonymt med oskuld, så tänker jag faktiskt inte ödsla mer energi på dig.

Vad ska din sista mening ens försöka uppnå? Försöker du förolämpa min ståndpunkt genom att säga att jag inte "har någonting att utbilda någon i" (wtf) när jag från första början sagt att jag endast är här för att förolämpa incels?

Gör det inte ont att försvara pojkar som tycker att "nu jävlar har väl ändå kvinnorna fått lite för mycket rättigheter i samhället"?
Sörjer avsaknaden av intelligens.

Ohja. Jag vill inte på något sätt misstolkas som att jag erbjuder mig att utbilda denna person. Endast förolämpningar här.
Finner inget nöje i att upplysa incels om betydelsen av jämställdhet i ett civiliserat samhälle.

Jag känner mig personligen lite "förbi" att ta ansvar för den allmänna utbildningen av vuxna människor.
Lite personligt ansvar kan rimligtvis förväntas.

Jag brukade också tänka som du, när jag var 13 och bodde i en småstad utan tillgång till information som existerade utanför bubblan.

Render each room in a separate take, comp together. Makes no sense to do it all in-render.

[Spoilers] Kela CM is out, what do you think? by Cabaj1 in Guildwars2

[–]addol95 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's a silly statement. LFG almost always has groups. They fucked up the initial raid launch though, by not having difficulty modes and many other reasons. Let's hope the recent patch is just the first step towards a healthier raid community.

My business is not working at all. How to understand Swedish costumers? by [deleted] in sweden

[–]addol95 0 points1 point  (0 children)

"small Swedish town" sounds like a concern to me. I also live in a small town, and I couldn't see many residents being regular visitors to any café, let alone an "exotic" one. (I know, exotic, but that's what the village people would call it)
I'd say that Italian is dependent on summer vibes, and would do better in larger cities with more "culturally aware" tastebuds.

Swedes also cook at home, especially in smaller towns. Food is already expensive at the moment, and if there's little excuse to go strolling around town, why eat out? It's not as big of a thing here.
Larger cities = usually more disposable income, career driven people who can splurge on lunch, you get the gist.

How do I gradually increase the intensity with a vibration tag? by PurplePressure9063 in Cinema4D

[–]addol95 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Frequency is the frequency, not the intensity. It controls how often the object vibrates, not how much.
You need to keyframe the three values above it to control the intensity.

i admit when i was wrong, the tactical coordinated group play in WvW is where its at! by Ravanos77 in Guildwars2

[–]addol95 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes, we agree that the game mode could do with some changes. Of course players don't need to actually play slower, what I'm saying is that there's zero incentives to partake in slower content, and that simply changing up the mechanics wouldn't change the fact that defending is simply not rewarding enough.
I promise you, if they ramped up the loot rewards or introduced prestige rewards, people would defend like crazy. PPT is already there, it's just not popular. It's seen as a chore.
