  @yiningkarlli@mastodon.gamedev.place This is like saying building sandwiches in Subway democratizes cooking and will give rise to the chef equivalent of Steven Spielberg.

  "Sideloading" is the rentseeker word for "being able to run software of your choosing on a computing device you purchased". There is no reasonable case for an operating system developer having a say over what programs you run on your hardware. #Android #Google

  From 8 cores to 36 cores processing power, let's see how the new database server holds up. Hopefully everything will be much faster from now on, but it should also give me a bit more room to scale horizontally.

  Just rewatched Dreamworks' Sinbad, which I have only seen once as a kid. It's such a good movie! Beautifully animated. It should be up there with Titan A.E. and Treasure Planet.

  @maxleibman@beige.party In my view it's turning unique character designs into averaged out Instagram influencers. I also do not share in the pursuit of realism in media. The more realistic, the harder to suspend disbelief.

  @tvaziri@mastodon.social Why?

  I think it's going to be more important than ever that #Mastodon and the #fediverse are not centrally operated out of the US unlike almost every other social media platform out there.

  Has anyone received their "I write alt text" t-shirt yet? I'd love to see some pictures / hear some feedback 🙂

  @df@s.dfaria.eu No, this is marketing. OpenAI, Google, Anthropic &co want you to believe that what they're doing is artificial intelligence. My professional opinion is that LLMs are a dead end technology to creating actual intelligence. And if any of those companies did create actual intelligence for the purposes they pursue, it would be slavery, for which I cannot advocate.

  @mkljczk@pl.fediverse.pl @foxyoreos@mastodon.social AI is a marketing term and functionally useless. It means whatever big tech wants it to mean. I studied neural networks at university back in 2013, before there was even a whiff of a large language model. OCR was described in books from 2001.

  @hpod16@eupolicy.social @Erased_Citizen@cupoftea.social I just have them on my computer. And if there's one I don't have, I search for it online and download.

  @foxyoreos@mastodon.social Mastodon does not have an AI alt text feature. You may be thinking of some third party apps.

  I have the impression that primarily anglophone people don't read as much translated literature, because so much good literature already exists in their language, so this issue may not be as familiar within that demographic. As someone who did not grow up anglophone, I can tell you there is a world of difference between a good and a bad translation even when done by humans. Machine translations are not even on the scale.

  @Eetschrijver@mastodon.social @madengineering@mastodon.cloud @fesshole@mastodon.social If it’s a studio production, yes. But based on “her channel” in the post it sounds like OnlyFans &co in which case it’s absolutely the choice of the performer.

  @Edent@mastodon.social Video is a subtype of Document, so it's not really wrong.

  @nolan@toot.cafe What you're describing is not a skill or craft, it's a gacha machine. It's gambling. You're hitting spin until you win something. And it relies on similar code and programs being in its training data. It's copying from Stack Overflow with extra steps. It won't solve novel problems.

  I feel like in the last couple media interviews I’ve done after stepping down as CEO I’ve done a much better job communicating the vision and importance of the fediverse than I’ve ever done before, which is ironic but maybe logical? Brain work better when less pressure?
