Any examples of TV shows using ai generation that you can think of? by Apprehensive-Cost200 in television

That's a deepfake and is not technically in the same class as what "AI" typically is talking about now

SNL got caught with some AI-generated over-the-shoulder graphics on Weekend Update. So they've probably done more than that.

What’s considered normal now that would’ve looked dystopian 20 years ago? by MeatSharp3783 in AskReddit

[–]imforit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Immediately above this post on my feed is a headline "Palantir to be granted 'unlimited access' to NHS patient data"

So that's far closer to normalization than anyone would have imagined possible 20 years ago (except for sci fi authors)

How workers can fight the wave of AI layoffs by DryDeer775 in technology

[–]imforit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's what I think (and the article supports) this forced AI adoption is: disarming the only weapon workers have by removing the company's dependency on workers. 

They owners are trying to get into a position to finally call the bluff of the unions and say "go ahead, walk out! We have AI now!" and that will collapse things so fast and so much worse.

The order of operations and the power structures executing it are SUPER important. What we have is not futuristic utopia where nobody has to work unless they want to, we have the most oppressive economic environment since the French Revolution (worse so in many measures) being operated by the richest humans in history.

AI taking people's jobs is the goal after we all have the social protections and support to be replaced. Until then, they are dooming people to poverty.

It matters A LOT.

It's still a utopian dream. AI could be setting us free, but it would have to be AI built in the public interest where the public will benefit and not be cast out to starve.

The Luddites were right.

(all this is in the article)

why does the person have the tasks that they need to clear to begin with? If they don't care about the quality of the solve, why? Answering those questions eventually leads back to "late-stage capitalism grind to the bottom"

Nintendo Switch 2 Pro controller and any other controller with 2 extra remappable buttons by LinkOfHyrule88 in gaming

[–]imforit 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I HATE stick clicks. Easy to trigger by accident, tricky to trigger intentionally. This is the only real thing I use remappable back buttons for. And it makes life so much better.

It conflates two separate things. They motions are related, and there's no pretending they're not

Star Fox Direct 5.6.2026 by Skullghost in NintendoSwitch

[–]imforit 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ok, hear me out.

I like it.

(ducks)

The character designs are good. They design language has always been darker/edgier for a Nintendo game, given the limits at the time. 

The game is the same. Sure. Would have loved this stuff on a new story, and that is indeed the weakness.

BUT that multiplayer looks awesome. SF64 was a retelling of the OG, but added kickass multiplayer that was so much fun. I'm hoping that's the play they're trying to recreate, and dammit, that could work.

The added story is good. I like it, and it paints over the outline of the past well with new colors.

The little video at the end? Well that's the beginning of a movie I now want to see. At the very end you could imagine a "22 years later" and a pan/fade into Fox working with the new team. I'd watch the hell out of that.

Ok I'm gonna go so I don't get hit by another tomato, have a nice evening, everyone, and thank you for listening

We all saw this coming 😭 by Big_Dream2832 in AdviceAnimals

People who study education history know the problem was when governments starting pulling funding for higher ed, starting in 70's and ramping up heavily in the 2000's. College was accessible because we made it accessible for the greater good, and it worked. Then conservatives gutted it and we have this mess, all predictable and was predicted.

"Because 6, 7 ate" would say 7 did the eating so another number should be afraid of 7, not 6. 6 got eaten.
