This is some dark shit. Time to back away from the pop culture. This is fucking you up inside.

So you’re saying Cabin In the Woods ran so Knock At the Cabin could crawl?

The issue here is Logan wasn’t promoting it like it was gaming. Even if there’s no signed contract, if he publicly goes on camera saying he’ll make a game that’ll make you rich then there’s no game and you’re not rich.... that’s plain and simple a scam. We could be here all day arguing about how unrealistic those…

There are no good people involved in crypto or NFTs. 

YOU’RE A LOOSE CANNON...BUT GD IF YOU DON’T GET THE JOB DONE.

Chastain explained that as a kid he had “played a lot of NASCAR 2005 on the GameCube”

Deceptive pull quotes and marketing is absolutely an art in any medium.

I didn’t realize that 1899 was even considering a sequel, I thought it told the story and ended where it needed to.  Not everything good has more to say.

Was Los Espookys cancelled, or did the studio and creatives mutually agree to end it? I thought I heard the latter, but I could be wrong. I loved season 1, but did not hear about season 2 until after it was cancelled.

Giant Bomb just can’t catch a break.

Going to be tough with no Jess or Jason on Giantbomb. Jess was a breath of fresh air when she came on, and stood her ground. Jason was the last (regular) face of the past. Still reeling from Gerstman’s firing. Game of the Year has been a tradition in this house, but couldn’t even deal with the mess it was this year.…

It seems to me like a great tool for good artists to speed up their work.

Is it so hard to understand that artists want to be compensated for use of their works? Companies (ahem High on Life) are literally using(stealing) artists own works to train an app so they won’t have to pay artists.

I think the end goal should be to have all the existing training data expunged and the algorithms only be allowed to be trained on data that the company that owns them have the rights to. The AI isn’t an actual brain, the owners can delete what it knows.

Yes, obviously the companies that generate these training databases and sell access to them have control over how they’re used.  This argument is the equivalent of “You can’t make it completely impossible for somebody to break into your house, so you should do absolutely nothing to prevent burglaries.”

The way that human artists learn to draw and the way that the Stable Diffusion algorithm generates images are fundamentally different. Modern “AI” is still incomparable to actual human intelligence; that’s just a label that researchers put on it to make it seem more advanced than it is, and you’re buying it.

Done at scale though, that effectively “breaks” internet monetization for producing text content (and thus the incentive for producing / hosting that content), which would mean that there should be quite a few interested / potentially harmed parties with highly paid lawyers. It will be interesting to see how that pans…

It’s pretty damn obvious tech companies are trying to make artistic/creative labor in general obsolete through the increasing popularity of AI tools(obviously pushed by them). AI tools may be flawed right now, but people are overlooking the true intent here.
