If they were exactly the same, as you claim, the two models would perfectly overlap. They don’t. In many instances, they’re not even close.

It’s pretty clearly satirizing Pokémon and the whole “happy animal enslavement/combat” subgenre with legitimate commentary. Someone might not like or agree with it, but satire and social commentary are both valid forms of expression, even in video games.

Imagine if you devoted 1/10th of the energy you expended defending a billionaire on anything else. Like, for example, the people she brazenly wishes to disenfranchise.

Recycling the exact same argument you clowns used for NFT’s two years ago, I see. Well, I guess if you guys were capable of coming up with new ideas, you wouldn’t need AI.

Imagine simping for AI art and thinking you aren’t a massive cunt.

Not only are they willing to put out poor quality art just to save a few pennies, but they won’t even take the ten minutes or so to review the results before posting them. Their stupidity would be hilarious if they weren’t the ones steering the ship.

That’s what shows how these companies view this. If they’ll use AI for this, rather than hire an actual artist who wouldn’t let this shoddy crap slip by, just think of the garbage they’ll generate for bigger projects.

What do you mean by “Fall behind the pack” because the Switch keeps moving units and software like crazy.

The Switch is already the second longest-lived Nintendo console and as of next July it’ll be the longest-lived.

Why should Huffman care? Reddit doesn’t need to be profitable, it just needs a great price for the IPO, and then he can promptly sell out. Wealth today isn’t generated by productivity, it’s generated by market hype.

In isolation, that’s absolutely a possibility! But at the same time as the hair clipping stuff, which is just as much a sign? Hrmmmmmm.

Unfortunately, convention venues are often booked years in advance, and the conditions of their contracts usually specify that they lose their deposit if they cancel. They are probably in a situation where if they simply cancel the convention, they will be out so much money that the convention will have to shut down…

I AM a translator, and just... No. That’s not how the language works.

George W. Bush is a liberal progressive relative to DeSantis.

I don’t see these things hurting Marvel and Disney too much, tbh. After all, we are kinda entering the “Simpsons Season 10+” phase of the MCU, where a lot of its cultural dominion is starting to fade, the cracks are starting to show, and passion from the fanbase will start to decline.

To prove a real point they should have hired their own artist to draw reference art, and not take it from an existing anime.

Or, they did it for just Japanese speakers to enjoy. Not everything is about trolling. 

Assholes. They’re assholes. Trying to cheat the system by using an AI that’s trained on an indeterminately large number of stories written by actual humans? That’s asshole behavior, if you ask me. I also think it’s gonna get worse before it gets better--maybe in a year or two’s time, AI stuff will be corralled or…

This really feels like one of those “things are going to get much worse before they get better” situations and God knows that’s probably the best way to describe this decade so far. I think about all the people who have poured their heart and soul into creating only to get rejected for one reason or another, but keep…

It’s one of the reason’s for FFXIV’s success. Hell, Yoshi-P has even said that its ok to unsub and resub when there’s something you want to do.
