    AI Image Generation

    How it's going to change is that everything is going to start looking the same if all the concept artwork is being generated by things that effectively take an average+remix of tons of existing art. Companies doing this will quickly become indistinguishable from any of the other companies doing...

    Are you just matchmaking or joining custom games? If matchmaking, make sure you have crossplay enabled or you will get stuck in emptyish games. A large percent of the playerbase is on consoles.

    Except Frame Gen is a real feature. I've been playing CP2077 with framegen and MAX settings and it looks and plays amazing.

    AI will slowly work it's way into a very large number of products, many of them in enterprise. That said, you don't need a bunker full of 25000 GPUs to run any of those products. You don't need any GPUs of your own to run those products. That said, I think generative AI will help 'metaverse'...

    It can easily last 3-15 years. That said, I'm sure there will be a chance to buy back in at <270 again. Except AI actually works, sort of.

    Getting access to features like DLAA, DLSS Framegen, being generally fast and efficient? For people just playing Apex and Valorant, it's probably great.

    I don't need memories. I work in telecom. Even the brand new fanciest cloud phone bullshit eventually connects to some shit that was made when Bill Clinton was still getting taxpayer-funded blowjobs.

    I think you would quickly find out that the "who you should talk to" interface people are actually the most "always on" people, especially when you have a company that spans timezones/follows-the-sun. But yes, as you get older, you should absolutely be gaining more soft-skills, political...

    I mean, this brings up a good point of what I hate about fantasy societies: They make no sense. Nearly every fantasy world is based around a societies that have stagnated for thousands of years. This is so antithetical to the world we actually live in. Most fantasy settings are very boring to...

    I've always had high amounts of faith in 'people' as individuals, and low amounts of faith in 'people' as a group. Most individuals do the right thing. Most groups only do the right thing only after they've fucked up every possible other way first. My pessimism comes from the fact that most...

    Yeah, I've had it explained to me by people who are actually good at these roles, and then see it in action every day now. While 80% of PMs, scrum masters, XXX Delivery Managers, etc, suck at their jobs, the 20% who are good at their jobs are literal "human routers." Everyone who needs...

    The biggest obstacles are budgets, politics, territorial disputes, ownership, accountability, responsibility, etc. Us engineers constantly tend to think solely in the technical sense and never in any of the other dimensions. For instance, there are dozens of ways I could improve efficiency...

    Because putting up with bullshit for any length of time is a skill. Do you know what kind of employees you get at 45-60k these days? People who don't even show up. The "everyone else but me should be paid less" people are the fucking worst. Nearly everyone at any corporation is underpaid...
