    I would prefer to celebrate human art at a fair. Same as I still watch humans play chess and sport. Kind of defeats the spirit of having a contest.

    The way a lot of people use AI is kind of proof the only thing they ever did or cared about was appearances and hype. There is not one iota of interest in reality. Every waking mom…

    Well there's compromise that means multi-dimensional constraint optimization, and that's fine. But a lot of time what people mean by compromise is they compromised on cost, or on e…

    Weird move to release this for a company that has mostly artists as customers but they were already kind of persona non grata for other reasons.

    I shipped this shader based video compositor as part of a bigger project ive been working on since before LLMs but the compositor was 100% ai and it works fantastically. It's not a…

    No. Exact opposite. Opening it up to everyone is what kills everything good, the endless september of grocery store tabloid aisles and clickbait. Gatekeepers are good, restrictions…

    I don't think they bought them just for the claude-code gui harness as it is now. it's to have strategic control over some software runtime they can use to do other things related …

    I feel like that's more saying they can't train on the fly, and also that serializing spatial data and world models is something we haven't really done fully. For me all neural net…

    I'm always curious if people who think like this have ever owned a business and had to convince people to actually give them money for what they do.
