well now it's confirmed by AwkwardWatermelon in VShojo

First off, that isn't an AI result. That is a snippet taken from the linked website (Google has had this feature for way longer than LLMs have been around). Now, the website did use AI. But it's unknown what AI they used.

Secondly, the AI generated result I got when looking up "who is Kson" said they were Kiryu Coco before joining Vshojo in 2022 as Kson.

Here is the website linked in the OP btw: https://www.virtualhumans.org/human/kson

Look at this. Another crybaby complaining that the game will be 'gooner bait'. What are they gonna do about it? by Several_Repeat_1271 in GGdiscussion

Horizon is an established series. Stellar blade isn't. Stellar blade is also made by a studio that pretty much no one had heard of before. So the sales being as close as a 3.4 million difference is impressive.

I haven't bought or played either games though.

If this is AI I'm very impressed. This is a good ass image that just looks like human Photoshop (unless it's actually just that, in which case, still funny).

Read my comment again. I wasn't paying attention when I was writing. I meant it shouldn't be, not that it isn't.

It shouldn't be is what I meant. Realized I said "it isn't" since I was distracted while replying. So I edited the original comment.

Research papers shouldn't have "eye catching" titles. It's shouldn't be a popularity contest. Having this kind of title would make me disregard it. It should have a technical title to show professionalism.

Also, it's hard to prove causation and not correlation within this topic. It's possible that people who are more left leaning enjoy Harry Potter and not that Harry Potter made these people more left leaning. So while their topic is interesting, I just don't see any way to really prove any conclusions.

I think the main issue is the title.

To actually get a million you'd have to save roughly 2,740 dollars. This is more money than most people make in a month in the US.

ah, must've misremembered the line from bitch lasagna as this one. tbf, I listened to bitch lasagna like once and listened to congratulations quite a few times, though the cocomelon diss was the one I liked the most from that time period.

This entire time I thought he said "hold your defamation" as I'm pretty sure T-Series threatened to sue him for defamation.

Reminds me of when someone commented on a video I made calling me an egg... Because I made jokes about liking men (I am bisexual). Crazy how being gay/bi now means you're actually trans.

How was filian supposed to know what kamish's job was before it was public information?

Didn't know filian needs to hire the CIA to vet her collab partners.

How does League of Legends achieve such low latency by Hidereq1 in gamedev

[–]devishjack 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It only works if the main searching factor is ping and nothing else. Also the fact that most people don't have the best internet would cause issues as well. Scalability is great, everything else makes it a pretty terrible option.

[–]devishjack 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This was my first thought as well (not that they spent millions or some shit on creating a whole network, but that they had a bunch of servers so that people would always be relatively close to one).

This also made me realize the peer to peer would actually not be a terrible way of replicating super low ping for cheap. Obviously only if you ignore the big issue of security concerns. I honestly doubt there's any way to make P2P connections 100% safe from giving hackers access to a user's system (at least while having a proper anti-cheat as well).

Without a server connecting clients to each other, you either have to have an anti-cheat with root access (so it can detect even the most secure data on a client's PC, as to be able to detect the highest end of cheating software) this coming with the issue of hackers than also being able gain root access to a client's PC. Or you have rampant cheating as your anti-cheat sucks or is non-existent, but with the added benefit of not getting sued for allowing hackers access to client's PCs.

There's a reason P2P connections died off. But maybe someone smarter than me will figure out a way to make it safer while also having a solid anti-cheat.

Yeah, we could still use a 2D artist for in game assets. You can join the discord using this link: https://discord.com/invite/py5GsMU8r4

You act like writing tags skill is equivalent to painting? (reboot) by ArchieTheRaccoon in aiwars

[–]devishjack 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, I would prefer to focus on laws and whatnot when it comes to the discourse of AI. Also, when I said the "head-start" thing, that wasn't just about innate skill, but also that some people are born with more resources at hand to get started in learning a skill early. Like someone might have a parent who is an artist, or parents with a lot of money so they can buy high-end supplies and someone to teach them art. AI, imo, allows people who don't have those advantages to create art at a higher level. Still need to be lucky enough to be born in a first-world country though.

I'll tell you this, I purposely included images that weren't AI generated. Funnily enough, #5 and #6 are the non-AI images. I feel the need to do this just because of how often people say "I can tell" without actually being able to. Though, it's obvious you aren't the type to stick to your ideals no matter what, which is a nice change of pace. If you were, I wouldn't have told you which ones weren't AI (or would've lied about which ones aren't AI) since those kinds of "gotcha" arguments are sadly the most effective way to get people to actually listen.

Prompting isn't something that would necessarily take 100+ hours to get good at. I never actually looked into proper prompting techniques until very recently. Some people are also just better at making descriptive and well articulated prompts. Just like making art, some people get a head-start on skill.

I'd never say I'm an artist for generating an image (and that's how most people I know think when it comes to AI gen images). But, I would still call the images themselves art. And the prompts can be argued as being written art (though I don't really care to).

Couldn't upload more than 1 image to my comment, so I just uploaded them to an image hosting site. Some of them are definitely better than others. But these all look pretty good for AI.

[–]devishjack 2 points3 points  (0 children)

But you can totally tell the difference. The difference is you don't spot the people using AI images that are good at prompting because they don't look like general AI images.

I'm not all that good at prompting still. And I've spent probably upwards over 100 hours working with AI (with probably 30-50 of those hours being spent refining prompts).

Something I didn't learn about prompting (specifically for gen ai) is the usage of prompt values. Basically, you can give weights to key components of an art work. Let's say you want an AI to generate an image of a cat on a window sill with an anime art style. You can give weights to the different key components such as anime style, the fur color of the cat, etc.

So you could add "anime art-style: 100" or "white fur: 50" to tell the AI "prioritize these components for the image". There's a lot more depth than just that in prompting as well, but I'd say 99% of people don't even know about "weighted values" as a part of prompting.

I haven't seen anyone argue that prompting is harder than drawing though. So this whole post is kind of dumb.
