If you didn't see Avatar in 3D in the theater, it was your loss. Sure, plenty of dumb stuff about the movie, but it was incredibly immersive in the way only blockbuster movies can be.

lol what the actual stonks is going on

Reality: Choose Your Own Facts Edition

Na, it's some licensing pissing match, kinda like what happened with Marvel Heroes and a few other video games... https://www.mediaite.com/media/breaking-sports-illustrated-to-lay-off-all-employees-after-brand-licensing-fiasco/

yeah that's the joke

Speaking of bad bets, I'm poking those IJS shares and they're not doing anything @Blazin

No, that was the easy mode. She eventually beat it playing 2 copies of the game at the same time:

Oh so this is some kind of service game and not just a single player game? Bleh.

This looks surprisingly good for weeb shit? I haven't played a weeb shit game since the first Xenoblade.

shit, I meant to post that yesterday. Gaming companies are the ones leading the charge on the "you will own nothing and be happy" conspiracy.

Not having this problem with uBlock Origin, at least, not the legit version. There was a bug with AdBlock specifically causing this.

Realistically it won't be this much because 31k of available funds is set to roll over to a 14-month CD at 5.3% very soon and I'm keeping it that way. But if 20yr bonds go >5.25 and SPY hits 4500 and I'm not buying $50k of each I'm a weenie.

idk when that spectator first shows up that was scary.

is this game still absolutely filled to the brim with perverts

If we pull back to two whole months ago, I am buying like 150k worth of bonds and SPY.

Can people speak in anything other than hyperbole? A pullback to 4500 wouldn't even be a correction.

Prime is honestly pretty good, all things considered. I don't have high hopes it stays that way.

wc runs are small change though, you don't have to buy gold for that.

The Fed is the most audited, most transparent financial organization in the world. The "AUDIT THE FED" people have no idea what they're talking about. Concentrate more on the fact that the DOD has failed their audit 6 years in a row now...

Right, I agree with this. Narrating indie RPGs is a good use for even mediocre AI software. But you know some shithead at EA is thinking they can built 5 more Mass Effect games without paying any actors. This is just simping for AI pirates.

Right. This was my evolution. It was extremely neat for the first 4-5 months after GPT 3.5 smashed onto the scene, but as I started working with our chatbot developers at work and setting up Bedrock instances, and then dug in doing a lot of my own actual research... its really just very clever...

Honestly we're gonna have to ride our hopes on AppleTV+ to carry the torch for a while. Apple has the money to burn to make niche prestige dramas as halo products.

No, and I didn't buy that on release either. I got that for 10 bucks or less like 2 years later, and played it fully patched. And I still never finished it because Horizon Zero Dawn released on PC and made me immediately regret enjoying ME:A.

I buy very few video games, because I've been burned so many times. 95% of the stuff I play comes out of my grandfathered-forever Humble Bundle sub. The only full-price release day games I've bought since become a full-time corpo drone are both Horizon games (great, okay), Destiny 2 (bad)...

No that's not how that works either. Large, powerful models need a lot of compute during pre-training and fine-tuning, but they also require less large, but still large, compute instances to produce output from prompts. GenAI is expensive on both ends, training and runtime, vs other lesser...

I think @DickTrickle was correct in that doing this for any game with a lot of dialogue, the prompt engineering would just be harder than hiring real people. But sure, with 10 years and enough GPUs to melt a battleship, yeah, someone could probably Derek Smart themselves their own one-man game...

It's already good enough for video games, it's just not good enough for good video games and likely never will be. But if we let companies shove shitty video games at us, that's on us.

Na, I got it, we're on the same page basically. You've just got no fight left in you. I see how it is. Do not go gentle into that goyslop night, friend.

Linking this again. https://www.cs.utexas.edu/~eunsol/courses/data/bitter_lesson.pdf TL;DR - 70 years of AI research has demonstrated that trying to make AI 'smarter' via clever tricks and cognitive hacks produced effectively 0 results. People are under the mistaken assumption that this new...

ftfy And that alone should tell you that it's actually slop. We are entering a world of Peak Garbage. Please do not cheer it on, or else be pronounced another Funko-Pop-Buying consoomer.

That's not how the math works lol. If you refine the training set to a subset of higher quality content, you make it worse at generalization. And an AI is never going to tell the director "Well, I think this line would read better like this..." This fantasy that you can remove the human...

So what kinda fried chicken are we all getting today to celebrate?

It came out on Friday. Yours already got delivered?

Actual vocal quality, maybe. Acting ability? Unlikely. Emotional quality? No. All these tools are is averaging engines. @Pyros is correct. While I think that we'll see a few studios pull off something amazing in the next decade with these AI tools, for the most part, GenAI is the new...

By the time tech ever got to the point that "blockchain and tokenization" are "a big part of our financial system" the Financial God AI will have progressed to the point where it just allocates all the resources with one giant fake and gay algorithm anyway. Any money in that system would just...
