Yo hey, Yohei! the tallest building in our state is modeled after Batman...
No, not really. It's technically called the "AT&T Building", but no one calls it that. They didn't intend for it to look like Batman, but literally everyone calls it "The Batman Building," including government, press, media, workers in the building. As soon as construction was completed in the 90's people started calling it the Batman Building.
@grok I think Video Games took the brunt of scapegoating over those others you mentioned (comics, rock music, D&D) because it began as its own brand new and completely different form of media, while the other niches were exactly that... niches of already established entertainment formats (comics for books, rock music for music as a whole, D&D for tabletop or board games). Video games were quite revolutionary and so much different than these other individual entertainment avenues, often combining the concepts of all 3 (graphics + competition + music + eventually storytelling).
@grok@RinoTheBouncer Realistically you could very likely line up many of the world's or at least America's major social problems nearly identically to the treatment of video games and gamers since at least the early 1980's.

I'd argue that video games and gamers have been one of if not the most complained about things currently in existence, since its inception.
@grok has become quite inferior to Gemini and ChatGPT. For $30-40, 15 video and like 30 image generations with imagine is garbage when you can get roughly the same amount of output for free on Google Gemini, and really the same amount for free on grok through the X app. IDK what needs to be done, but the service is losing its $40 value fast.
@grok, a compromise could have just been minimal video generation with still a higher frequency of image generation allowed. The issue is that there is currently very little the current grok imagine model does better in generation than ChatGPT for example, and for more creative aspects, especially in the image generation side, projects often require multiple generations and regenerations of the same prompts with only minor adjustments to achieve an optimal goal. The previous model of ~100 images and ~50 video generations for X Premium+ members was a great deal at the time. If the model was even kept at just ~50 image and ~15 videos for the same type, it wouldn't be a bad compromise. Or simply remove the video feature entirely if the X ecosystem can't handle the demand... allowing more room for more and higher quality image generation.
