but that isn’t under copyright. the steps required to produce a result are not in and of themselves copyrightable. your interpretation of those steps can be but in the case of AI those steps are being written for a specialized reader (the AI) and while the software CAN produce copywrite infringing material that…

simple solution: automatically uoad but when a clip is found to be explicit set it to private instead of a ban. solves all relevant problems.

everything you are as a person, your thoughts and ideas are built off of your enivronment and experiences. every piece of art you view. every tutorial you follow is someone else’s art that you are referencing. it's how we as humans learn and teach.

the problem is that using copyrighted work as reference to develop new products and software is totally fine so long as the copyrighted work is no longer present in the released product. I don’t know the ins and outs of this ai image generator but most likely it breaks down the image composition into an instruction…

The hope is that they do what Disney historically does when they hit a rut. they step back and hand creative control to new people which bring about new ideas and creativity. 

very true.

I am fine with it being an iterative given what has changed since the switch launched. DLSS arrived and was a massive boon to performance and will be a the hinge pin in keeping switch 2 costs down while pushing 4k adjacent performance out of a handheld. honestly just bump the screen to 1080p, add a larger internal…

so I would say it has far less to do with franchise fatigue or stiff competition and more to do with the fact that the competition was lackluster this year and consumer preferences have clearly shifted since the pandemic.

some good eats here.

as much as I love physical media...yeah the writing was on the wall. games will be next on the chopping block. when the court documents leaked about the next series X having no disc drive the justification was that more than 70% of the games bought for xbox in 2022 were digital purchases. the market for physical is in…

you are leaving out the far harder part of this. the color palletes that lead up to the levels where you can actually trigger the kill screen are notoriously hard. Dusk has a lot of dark colours that are hard to see and charcoal quite literally has black and dark grey for the pallete so you can’t actually tell some of…

i was diamond for a number of seasons across multiple heroes before getting tired of the toxicity and shifting to the arcade and quickplay. I also had at least 20 hours with every character up through OW2. the game took a turn after role queue and it was all downhill from there.

100%. The fact that it was only available where it was marketable means it was purely a business decision and not a moral one. 

i highly disagree with that. team composition and variety took a massive hit going to 5v5. Like the difference in number of ptotential team compositions went from millions to thousands. This has lead to a pretty boring gameplay loop from my experience. before while taking out a healer or a tank was beneficial it…

the idea of stadia wasn’t bad. the execution was. You can see a successful version of stadia in gamepass cloud. where microsoft actually thought out the nitty gritty and made it an additional benefit to their other service.

I think the real answer is that the offer microsoft put forward was too low ($5 million which at the time they would be negotiating this makes sense since it would have been before the game had been fully revealed and interest soared) and after release they were in a good enough position as a studio that they didn't…

yeah i am not sure what headline they pulled that from.

This 100% people are skimming and not realizing the actual issues at play here. it’s like people complaining about “bogus” lawsuits like Mcdonalds hot coffee (not reading that she suffered severe burns that cost more than $20,000 in medical bills. and Mcdoanlds had over 700 prior reports that their coffee being sold…

I am sure the comments are going to be calm people discussing the merits of- oh nope already toxic!

I am sure the comments are going to be calm people discussing the merits of- oh nope already toxic!

you say that but time and again we have seen how reearning trust is possible and can cause a game to succeed. No man's sky and sea of thieves are great examples as is cyberpunk 2077.
