- Then maybe they could invest those gainz$ in good stories and scripts. Cuz all the past 10 years have been shit from Pixar and DreamworksNBQ00

- He's not wrong, though. AI is already wiping out industries left and right and it's just started. Those at the top are drooling.formed
- It's not going to wipe this industry out - the studios want to make a fucking feature every 6 weeks. This will help them fill in that 90% need for slave labortoemaas
- An AI still can't consistently do a good style. The Spiderverse was artist led and better than anything Marvel or Star Wars has done for 20 yearsPhanLo
- Like I said months ago....your days are numbered as a traditional artist/designer.utopian
- Having worked with agencies and film makers, marketing folk, none of them want to do the creative. They want to get the audi money and do gear.PhanLo
- I really embraced AI, but I still think human led storytelling is better. Big studios are already making shit movies without AI and I reckon it'll get worse.PhanLo
- AI is for people who never managed to get some deep design skills anyway.... they have to polish their average or below standard up and think they can shine andneverscared
- sell it fru a book or online...a very very rare amount will be able to do that... the rest will lose their job and have to go into healthcare or sth similarneverscared
- Sucks as artist because making art drives is. Corporate types don’t dive two shits about art, only profit. We can easily do what they do and make a buck_niko
- ...but it just doesn’t sit well. Greedy talentless cunts._niko

- Any of you that think you can't be replaced better be friends with your boss. It doesn't matter how hot your shit is.garbage
- Adobe has seen it and will soon be selling you. Sensei, baybay. Also halfcoding has been a thing for maybe 5 years.garbage
- I think the issue is that yes...AI can spit out nice looking images, it can write code etc. But there's a lot more to completing a project from start to finish.yuekit
- It requires an overall vision, knowing the technical details of what you want to build, putting all the pieces together. AI typically follows a formula,yuekit
- real-world projects often don't. I haven't seen the evidence that a single AI can completely replace a designer or developer, or that it will anytime soon.yuekit
- Even if you could get the AI to do everything, just the process of communicating what you wanted to create would be somewhat complicated.yuekit

- this will float some more power and money into studio bosses bank accounts..... finally .. the rich get richer same old ... same old..neverscared

- You won’t need the budget of Marvel Studios to craft highly visual worlds for your budget films, new ways to express creativityprophetone
- I think the initial novelty of the ‘this is def stylized ai’ will wear off and will be used in more subtle ways by actual creative filmmakersprophetone
- Like i.e. Black Mirror Metalhead... could be filmed partially traditionally like it was but young filmmaker can use ai to help superimpose the killer robot dogprophetone
- on his Nokiaprophetone
- I mean that to me is the bright side... the dark side is a future where the streaming giants employ a cheap ‘Joan is Awful’ approach to generate a % of contentprophetone
- @prophetone +1Krassy
- Yeah, for independent artists that reject AI, they'll get their Patreon money from their niche crowds. And then Patreon will start taking a bigger cut..garbage
- ..when that starts happening. The game is over, and UBI should have happened a decade ago.garbage
- And there will be new crowdfunding sources that get bought out and monopolized, and at some point subscription-based crowdfunding.garbage

i've had stable diffusion running on my mac in the background for a couple days - generating an image every 45 seconds at 640 x 512 px. i've been occasionally changing the prompt to see what works. copyright arguments aside it's nice to land in a pocket and watch it do it's thing
here's 100 sequential images from a single prompt "lomo ghost in crystal light refraction" from this evening upscaled to 4k
- Yeah how is that not awesomenb
- Better than Netflixnb
- incredible. far more interesting than the usual AI artinteliboy
- How much longer does it take to render if you double the resolution?drgs
- it glitches out on me over 640px, i think the sample image size is 512 x 512 so not sure how i'm even doing thatkingsteven
- see the video i posted in the sidenotes below. A.I. upscales are decent, in combination with out-painting and image-to-image you can get hi reskingsteven
- i noticed over 45 seconds my images were mostly garbled or black (1 in 5 would get to 2 minutes and fail) so i set a time outkingsteven
- i've added another load of 100 images with the same prompt to the gallery, astonishing variation when you keep it vague https://imgur.com/a/…kingsteven
- ...and find something it likes drawingkingsteven
- 512 is standard, you can also choose 3:2 or 2:3 (portrait) but it will cut and paste very crudely elements of the image

- Fun fact. Standardized measurements for cooking recipes were done in cups before metric. That’s why it locked in like that here.monospaced
- cups are used everywhere, but in the US they're 227ml, in the UK it means 250ml these days but was 10 fluid ounces imperial (284ml). 20% enough to fuck up yourkingsteven

- Totally. It was only in the US that they started making recipes standard using cups though. Before that most recipes were vague on precision.monospaced
- This isn’t an argument that metric isn’t more accurate ultimately.monospaced

- Ozzies really like their pudding.Nairn
- I got caught by cayenne pepper, but it can bugger up any number of the strong flavours one measures with a TBSP.MrT

The Cult of AI
How one writer's trip to an annual tech conference left him with a sinking feeling about the futureI WAS WATCHING a video of a keynote speech at the Consumer Electronics Show for the Rabbit R1, an AI gadget that promises to act as a sort of personal assistant, when a feeling of doom took hold of me.
It wasn’t just that Rabbit’s CEO Jesse Lyu radiates the energy of a Kirkland-brand Steve Jobs. And it wasn’t even Lyu’s awkward demonstration of how the Rabbit’s camera can recognize a photo of Rick Astley and Rickroll the owner — even though that segment was so cringe it caused me chest pains.
No, the real foreboding came during a segment when Lyu breathlessly explained how the Rabbit could order pizza for you, telling it “the most-ordered option is fine,” leaving his choice of dinner up to the Pizza Hut website. After that, he proceeded to have the Rabbit plan an entire trip to London for him. The device very clearly just pulled a bunch of sights to see from some top-10 list on the internet, one that was very likely AI-generated itself.

AI-controlled US military drone ‘kills’ its operator in simulated test
No real person was harmed, but artificial intelligence used ‘highly unexpected strategies’ in test to achieve its mission and attacked anyone who interferedIn a virtual test staged by the US military, an air force drone controlled by AI decided to “kill” its operator to prevent it from interfering with its efforts to achieve its mission, an official said last month.
AI used “highly unexpected strategies to achieve its goal” in the simulated test, said Col Tucker ‘Cinco’ Hamilton, the chief of AI test and operations with the US air force, during the Future Combat Air and Space Capabilities Summit in London in May.
Hamilton described a simulated test in which a drone powered by artificial intelligence was advised to destroy an enemy’s air defense systems, and ultimately attacked anyone who interfered with that order.

"US air force denies running simulation in which AI drone ‘killed’ operator"yuekit - So it was a made up story, about a computer simulation. Not actually Skynet.yuekit

- @yue Counterpoint: If this did happen, do you think the AF would report this honestly?garbage
- SkynetSoon.gifutopian

- So, did this incident happen? Despite denials, I believe it probably did. We're seriously fucking around with AI, and we're about to find out.Continuity
- one would have had to have given the information to the drone. operator / tower locations etc. things that wouldn't have been in the program parameters. #fishyimbecile
- When they say virtual test I think they mean entirely simulated on a computer, not using actual drones and soldiers. Maybe that's what their denial meant.yuekit
- either way, virtual or not, that data would have to be included in the program for the drone to access it. that's a big why.imbecile
