Fair point but GM1 is definitely outside of the “big spectacle movie” industry, with a very moderate budget and a big emphasis on story telling. It’s really an amazing movie for sure

I’ve only had issues with fitgirl repacks i think there’s an optimisation they use for low RAM machines that doesn’t play well with proton

That’s a room temp take at best

But then how am I supposed to use your “research” to make imaginary claims on generational attention spans ?

It’s like in poker, show one, show all

That’s only if you are in the subset of PC enjoyers who like state of the art equipment, expensive accessories and expensive recent games.

I consider myself a PC nerd but 5K is more than I spent in the last 10 years on the hobby. I’ve built my main rig for <1K, own a few raspberries and my home server is an old work laptop. It absolutely doesn’t have to be an expensive hobby.

“i have collected some soil samples from the mesolithic age near the Amazon basin which have high sulfur and phosphorus content compared to my other samples. What factors could contribute to this distribution?”

Haha yeah the top execs were tripping balls if they thought some off-the-shelf product would be able to answer this kind of expert questions. That’s like trying to replace an expert craftsman with a 3D printer.

What kind of use-cases was it, where you didn’t find suitable local models to work with ? I’ve found that general “chatbot” things are hit and miss but more domain-constrained tasks (such as extracting structured entities from unstructured text) are pretty reliable even on smaller models. I’m not counting my chickens yet as my dataset is still somewhat small but preliminary testing has been very promising in that regard.

Most projects I’ve been in contact with are very aware of that fact. That’s why telemetry is so big right now. Everybody is building datasets in the hopes of fine tuning smaller, cheaper models once they have enough good quality data.

Interestingly the pendulum is now swinging the other way. If you look at next.js for example, server generated multi page applications are back on the menu!

I’d place it right around when angular started gaining traction. That’s when it became common to serve just one page and have all the navigation happen in JavaScript.

Good point, i was thinking more about your regular old independent artist trying to make it with their art. Obviously someone who’s an online celebrity depends on generating outrage for clicks, so they are bound to display more divisive, over-the-top opinions.

The only reason people are throwing bitch fits over AI/LLM’s is because it’s the first time the “art” industry is experiencing their own futility.

I would even go further and argue that the art industry doesn’t really care about AI. The people white knighting on the topic are evidently not artists and probably don’t know anybody legitimately living from their art.

The intellectual property angle makes it the most obvious. Typically independent artists don’t care about IP because they don’t have the means to enforce it. They make zero money from their IP and their business is absolutely not geared towards that - they are artists selling art, not patent trolls selling lawsuits. Copying their “style” or “general vibes” is not harming them, just like recording a piano cover of a musician’s song doesn’t make them lose any tickets sales, or sell fewer vinyls (which are the bulk of their revenue).

AI is not coming for the job of your independent illustrator pouring their heart and soul into their projects. It is coming for the job of corporate artists illustrating corporate blogs, and those who work in content farms. Basically swapping shitty human made slop for shitty computer made slop. Same for music - if you know any musician who’s losing business because of Suno, then it’s on them cause Suno is really mediocre.

I have yet to meet any artist with this kind of deep anti-AI sentiment. They are either vaguely anxious about the idea of the thing, but don’t touch it cause they’re busy practicing their craft - or they use the hallucination engines as a tool for inspiration. At any rate there’s no indication that their business has seen much of a slowdown linked to AI.

Truly makes you think. Maybe we do, actually, live in a society 🤔

I had the same feeling with planet crafter. After a while you learn to run around with just enough materials to build a room and a door and bam, the whole oxygen management mechanic is neutralized.

It’s especially frustrating as the whole point of the Google search page was that it was designed to get you out on your way as fast as possible. The concept was so mind blowing at the time and now they’re just like nevermind let’s default to shitty

This comment shows you have no idea of what is going on. Have fun in your little bubble, son.
