About the SBI curator, I mentioned it since even that group seems to be against the current AAA approach, of course there's that whole DEI conspiracy which is their primary motivation but they too want to play games that are fun and don't break the bank. I liked the idea of a large AAA company promoting smaller more…
Now, I haven't seen much of The Princess and The Frog, but wasn't the fact that the protagonist is black kind of important in that film? Like, her being a black woman is a huge part of why she's in the socioeconomic position she's in? If I'm remembering rightly, then it's quite disingenuous to make such a comparison. It…
Same here - when I saw that email I couldn't help but wonder about the side effects this might have for their content makers (if it works as advertised). Don't DAZ have a huge marketplace where the users have to buy basically every single item to kit out the default character models? To me this looks like it would eat…
Since this technology is projected to wipe out jobs that tend to generate significant tax income (e.g. I read that plenty of middle management positions might well be on the cutting block within a few years time) I'm pretty sure the law will catch up with them. Lobbying - in my opinion - only goes so far if the very bottom…
the actual quote from the article: "I think with almost almost everything in technology, the S curve is not longer than a decade once it becomes true, once it becomes practical and better. And, of course, ChatGPT is not only practical; in most cases, it's better. I think it's less than ten years away. In ten year's time…
That's quite a good summary. It does go to show some of the faults I find with AI bro "it learns/is just like a human". The critical thing missing is actual understanding. Thinking about it that way, it feels a bit less of a threat than it has done, but even if it can't do those, there's still a tonne of work it can and…
I mean they are a literal financial asset. The more employees you have, the more your company is worth to someone looking to acquire it or if it goes into receivership. @PolyHertz I see no reason to be scared of that
Personally, I haven't seen any. They tend to be......Very overdesigned-looking. They have a lot of detail, but they tend to lack the sense an actual designer would have about where to put the detail; they don't think about having a strong silhouette, or guiding the viewer's eyes to any parts in particular, or telling…
I apologise for the bluntness, but can you please stop trying to derail the thread to grind your axe about SBI and conspiracy theories of left wing infiltrators? The first half of your comment was fairly on-point. Second half, not so much. That aside...... Surely the budget is coming mainly from just the sheer demand…
Yes I read the linked article where James Cameron goes into the design of the Navi and says, "the more alien we make them in the design phase, we just kept asking ourselves — basically, the crude version is: "Well, would you wanna do it?" And our all-male crew of artists would basically say, "Nope, take the gills out." It…
