The article in which Scott compares John Henry's mining capacity to the Machine's
  • yeah he didn't include the picture of a woman and child because you couldn't see the kid's thumb but this one is fine? he is so fucking weird. i can't tell how much of it is sheer stupidity and how much is pure spite because he really does seem to resent art and artists.

  • Finally, I avoided most AI art in the DALL-E "house style", since everyone already knows this is AI - or in other similar styles that humans would have trouble replicating, maybe because they do too much with color and lighting, in a way that few human artists would have the talent or patience for.

    lmaoooooo

  • yeah, any picture i got wrong in his thing i thought "this is stock image shit, i couldn't care less whether it was synthesised or industrially produced"

  • jesus fucking christ

    where's the option for "i know art and history and i can recognise actual paintings you fucking dummy" his little test would fail even harder if we were doing direct comparisons, like hey which one's a real painting (ignore the hand)

    i don't know man, probably the one that doesn't look like a photorealistic anachronistic hodgepodge????? what the fuck even is that

  • In which a Eugenicist Effective Altruist advocates becoming a cuckold for the greater good
  • The justice of the argument is clear to me. I have already made arrangements for my children to come to not be genetically mine. When the time comes, I will call upon their aid, presuming the sequencing does not tell us there are incompatibilities; and we will select embryos to maximize the quality of life for my child to come.

    why are you talking like a necromancer

  • The thing is, I'm pretty sure the overwhelming majority of the data is effectively worthless out of the online advertising grift. It's thoughtlessly collected junk sold as data for its own sake.

    It works because no one working in advertising knows what a human beings is.

  • Coca-Cola’s new AI-generated Christmas ad is as bad as you’d expect
  • I'm going insane looking at comments praising the 1995 TV spot, going on about how it makes them teary-eyed and such, and how the AI remake is a travesty. That shit already looked like if you put a Norman Rockwell artbook in the blender, drank the mixture and subsequently got sick on the Vegas Strip.

  • This is crappy and weird but it could have been worse: unlike the Toy's Are U's advert they wisely decided not to include any human. Which in turn makes the caravan of trucks look eerie and sinister. You can't win them all.

  • it's really fucking dumb because trump got 2 million less votes than in 2020. really great map for learning the wrongest possible lesson from this election.

  • Dem talking heads spending so much energy courting moderate conservative votes was an excellent way to demobilise their base. They really gave their all to lose an election that should have been a free win.

  • i do love how the "anti-imperialist" protest vote against harris was a choice between like three or four putin apologists. the state of the US left is really fucked up and i don't want to look at it ever again.

  • We also have stuff like DLSS, which is pretty cool and I imagine ends up being more efficient in energy usage. The key thing I believe is it's built as a specific tool for a specific purpose, instead of general purpose slop machines eating humongous databases to excrete absolutely nothing useful for anyone.

  • Ah awesome! I didn't think it was because you can't upload pictures, but maybe you can in the "Revisited" version!

  • I think it's fine to have little art games that are only interesting to play for a few minutes. They can still have an impact that stays with you forever. Catacombs of Solaris for instance is one I love and think about all the time.

    These AI guys though, god it must be so sad working on this stuff. They can't be proud of what they're making if the goal is to trick people into thinking you can have a real Minecraft game in there. The game is not even relevant, as far as I can tell they're only using it to draw attention to their stupid and doomed ASIC business.

  • I do like it also, but notice how they try to hide most of these strange effects in their demo video. They're trying to pass it off as a playable minecraft. Anything interesting about the technology is a defect to these people.

    They also claim this is "the first playable AI-generated game" when the exact same sort of thing already existed in 2022 (and it looked a lot more efficient and haunted): https://madebyoll.in/posts/game_emulation_via_dnn/ Maybe it doesn't count if you call it "Neural network" instead of "AI".
