"Famous" AI Artist Says He's Losing Millions of Dollars From People Stealing His Work

    here?

    Unfortunately I think that’s a bit of a liberal argument. It ascribes some ineffable quality to human creativity that AI cannot replicate.

    unless my lying eyes deceive me

    Unfortunately I think that’s a bit of a liberal argument. It ascribes some ineffable quality to human creativity that AI cannot replicate.

    every single time the AI argument comes down to this. "oh you just don't trust AI cos youre a rube who believes in a soul" no motherfucker I'm just not some fucking anti-intellectual who has decided, apropros of NO research into neuroscience, that I know how the brain works and it MUST be analogous to something algorithm based machines can understand

    you genuinely don't know what you're talking about, and you have to take so many intellectual shortcuts to derive your position that you are not worth taking seriously

    there was a time where I was younger and was convinced by lib PF fans that Roger Waters was crazy and all the rest of em get it

    i know this is a joke of a cliche, but they couldn't make Animals today - the rest of the band would be too lib to let something like that slide

    wouldn't be surprised, i luckily don't have an algorithm that serves me that but the crowd is one hundred percent from the chud Gamer-sphere

    you can tell because they start off getting mad that 'the Official Godot twitter account is blocking customers who replied in good faith' which is already laughable, and then when you press them on it they go on about how politics is going to make Godot go broke (also laughable)

    im so glad that the term tourist has gained the meaning it has - cos that's what all these people complaining about 'woke' godot are

    tourists looking to try and pick a fight with the indie game dev crowd, and you know they aren't part of that crowd cos if they ever even interacted with it once they would know how fucking queer and anti-capitalist our scene is

    pro-tip: do not look at the reddit comments for this whole controversy, so many motherfuckers in there who are so clearly just drive-bys

    been playing a bunch of Satisfactory, gotten myself to Tier 7 which is the furthest I've gotten

    also been throwing in some Deadlock, been having a bit of fun with that now that I know what I'm doing

    thinking about picking up Ultrakill or replaying some Doom 2016 for some level design inspiration for game dev stuff too :)

    Why is this being sold on *votegearoutlet*
  • yoink yoink 1mo ago 100%

    the implication is that you are so good at X that things that would be affected by X cower in fear when they see you, that you basically have a reputation for that specific thing

    in the case of wings, its that you are so prolific at wing eating that other wings are scared when they see you

    in the case of unsucked penises, the implication is that they won't be unsucked for long

  • yoink yoink 2mo ago 100%

    i saw this tweet yesterday and as a game dev and designer it legit made me mad

    it's the same shit AI bros do every time - they have to dumb down the meaning of the thing they're trying to imitate poorly, because they have to shift the goal posts to pretend that what they do has any legitimacy

    this is in no way a game engine, and trying to pretend it is requires abstracting and dumbing down entire fields of study these nerds have never even dipped their toes into

  • Black transmascs and east asian transfems, do the racist stereotypes of your race being masculine/feminine make you suspicious/mad when you pass?
  • yoink yoink 2mo ago 100%

    im a SEA trans woman living in australia - there's been a lot of times where I feel like I can pass better/get away with less because of the fact that most people around me don't have a sense of like what to look for if they were trying to clock me. tbh I also don't know if anyone around here can even tell what race I am beyond just vaguely southish asian and foreign

    I dont know about hurt, but the flipside is that I've always found it harder to feel comfortable in my own body in different ways - i'm plus size, and having grown up in white culture I keep finding myself judging my body based on white beauty standards, which itself feeds into dysphoria. it's something I'm trying to work on, but it's definitely hard

    coming to the close of another (US) Pride month, and again we're still transfixed on Drag Queens being the only thing worth putting in the spotlight nothing against drag, just generally tired that it's 2024 and it's still the same thing over and over again, and it wouldn't be so bad if it was just the tippy top of disconnected-from-culture corpos but even on the small scale the words 'Pride' and 'Drag' are treated as one-for-one interchangeable i get why, Drag Queens present a personality and character that can more easily be attached to advertising, but still it's a drag (pun intended)

    Screenshot from my in-development game, Death Tech Reaper [bonus screen in comments]

    I've been debating whether I wanted to share screenshots or anything here, but I've realised I'd rather put things out there than debate whether I'm an imposter or not, otherwise stuff like this sits on my harddrive and goes nowhere this is a screen from my in-development game, Death Tech Reaper :) Taking place on the First Plane of the after-life, you play as Ceres, the newly minted 'Reaper' who's job is to protect the souls traveling through the First Plane on their journey down to their final resting place in the Greater Commune. It's an isometric action game, with a semi-randomised layout, taking inspiration from the rogue-like genre - the catch, however, is that you only ever have 2HP to play with at any given time, however your health can be recovered by taking down enemies, keeping you in the run longer. I wanna keep posting updates as I work, it's getting closer and closer to something I'm happier to distribute wider - I'm just glad I have something to put my name to. I'll post some gameplay footage at some point too!
