Machine learning for helping a radiologist analyze images is super helpful and a mature field.
Whatever “AI” LLM nonsense tech bros are trying to add in to everything in the last 2 years is probably not all that helpful, but i could be proven wrong
I have always used conversation view in my desktop email client. Not sure why you think this is revolutionary or exclusive to gmail.
Sorry, my comment wasnt really directed at you specifically… Just the fediverse general hate for all things AI
yours was the first that mentioned “art” which triggered me, lol
I think we are actually both on the same page… You have a reasonable view of the whole AI thing. It’s rare on lemmy/mastodon
LLMs and image generating models are completely different things. Outputting an image doesnt require or benefit from reason and logic (other than making the model “understand” the prompt). Drawing a three headed monkey isnt “logical” and doesnt follow “reason” but that’s ok because art isnt about making photorealisitic images.
AI images could totally be useful as a tool in art. “But a computer made it! It’s not art!” It’s the same tired argument we heard about electronic music before.
But the fediverse seems to have such a hate boner for ANYTHING associated with AI (dont get me wrong, there is lots to hate. Mostly with tech-bro grifting…) that people are unable to see that these can be useful complements to human creativity.
Here’s another example… People crying that when an image contains AI generated elements, or maybe a video game contains some AI assets. People fly into a rage and want to dismiss the ENTIRE work and throw it all out. Human art doesnt require 100% human hands to make. Go look at any famous painting by a renaissance master. Did you know a lot of these guys had whole workshops of lackeys filling in background details for them? Are we going to throw out all the raphael and rembrandt paintings because they had assistance from other uncredited people?
Same with AI. Why cant an artist spend MORE time on important details and let AI draw some happy little trees in the background?
New text to speech models are incredible these days…
Again, we shouldnt replace actual voice actors for main dialog. But for generating thousands of lines of background chatter (which nobody would have time or resources to make anyway) LLM writing paired with text to speech could really help flesh out a living game world
I dont think LLMs will or should replace properly written dialogue.
Where they would shine is just generating inane background chatter. So instead of hearing an NPC say “i took an arrow to the knee”, or “jesus christ be praised! Henry’s come to see us!” 300 times, an LLM could generate some short one liners that are a bit more dynamic. It would go a long way to making the world feel more alive.
I have a lot more money to buy shit ever since i rid myself of that money pit we call a car…
Just dont connect it to the internet.
That’s what i do with my OLED screen. It acts as a monitor for my HTPC. I dont use any of the apps on the TV
There is a good statistically proven reason why so much money flows into it.
Too many smug people think, “advertising doesnt work on me! Hah! Only weak minded normies fall for it…”
Wrong… Advertising works. And that’s the reason a shit ton of money that goes into it.
You want to know the reason why i run adblockers in my browser AND DNS levels? Because i KNOW advertising works on me… i KNOW i’m not smart enough to outsmart the army of engineers, and copywriters generating this stuff.
Source: i work in advertising lol
I’ve bought and paid for every civ game since civ3…
I even paid for civ4 twice. Boxed CD and on steam… And now you’re going to treat me like a criminal with shitty DRM??? Welp, i guess i’m not buying Civ7, Sid…
No more turns…
Whats the noise level if the car is driving at a reasonable speed in the city?
I imagine it’s only excessively noisy if they are showing off, revving the engine, and/or streeet racing
Well thats kind of the point of my statement about “it’s 2024”
I understand game AI is a complex problem. But it seems like we havent made any progress since civ3… And we’re right in the middle of an AI hype cycle… Can we not use AI for something useful like games? Instead of just making deepfakes, disinformation, and firing workers?
It’s 2024… Please fix the AI…
Biggest weakness in every civ game is the shitty AI that requires massive cheating, and terrible diplomacy (constantly making ridiculous demands, then getting mad and denouncing you if you dont hand over the goods)
If you asked an alien who had never seen a car before, “design a vehicle that carries one single human for 90% of the trips and sits idle 90% of the day”, they would never in a million years come up with something as hideously oversized and wasteful as a modern car…
Framework would be an instant buy for me if not the 3:2 screen. I’m not a developer, so there’s no upside for me
I just want the repairability
Cops make a lot of money. I’d be less mad if they at least went to a local coffee shop instead of shitty tim hortons
In the 90s at least, 15% was for EXCEPTIONAL service…
Now its 15% if they dont spit in your food…
I’m surprised some marketing genius at the intel/amd hasnt started using the bigger numbers
debian sid checking in.
The ultimate coffee device for max lifespan is vietnamese phin filter. $10, will never break.
