Unrequested opinions about whatever…

[Pope Leo XIV @Pontifex]

In this era of artificial intelligence, it is becoming urgent to distinguish human art from what machines produce. There is an ontological difference, even before an aesthetic one, between art and what a machine can generate through statistical calculation based on millions of images created by others. Algorithms lack the spark of humanity. For this reason, the Church wishes to renew an alliance with artists and cultural institutions to safeguard our humanity.

@EddCoates Might need to gate it behind user authentication

@0x6aApp Oh no thanks, I have actual talent and can draw!

@AdryOcampoM @Flakiz0812 Hay que llamar cada que suceda. No paren de reportar

Fico tiene razón en una cosa: "Se nota que ya comenzó la campaña a la Alcaldía."

[Fico Gutiérrez @FicoGutierrez]

Regular no es prohibir.
El debate sigue.
Yo tengo algo muy claro. Estoy del lado de las familias de Medellín.
El turismo es un renglón económico muy importante y lo seguiremos jalonando, pero con orden.
Primero nuestra gente.
Absurdo que a esto algunos le llamen socialismo.
La vivienda familiar debe ser protegida. Por muchas razones: precio, tranquilidad, entre muchas otras.
Quién tiene propiedades, las seguirá teniendo, nadie se las puede arrebatar.
Definiendo la libre empresa y la propiedad privada.
Y defiendo a las familias de Medellín que claman por esto.
Hagan el lobby de frente a la ciudadanía.
Quién financia toda esta campaña?
Lo sabremos.
Y si hay políticos de Medellín que quieren simplemente defender el interés de unos pocos por encima del interés de la inmensa mayoría de personas de nuestra ciudad, pues también los pondremos en evidencia.
Se nota que ya comenzó la campaña a la Alcaldía.
Pues yo como Alcalde y ciudadano de Medellín también estoy listo para dar el debate y defender a nuestra gente.
Que la ciudadanía tenga los ojos muy abiertos.

@AndresGaviriaC Tanto preambulo para no terminar aportando nada...

doomscrolling on twitter instead of ig and tiktok so at least i’m wasting my time intellectually

Etiopía acaba de entrar al 2019.

No quiero spoilearles nada, pero vayan comprando tapabocas y papel higiénico. Se vienen cositas.

I fucking love people who become more themselves with age. Stranger taste. Clearer boundaries. Louder laugh. Less interest in impressing random people. Watching somebody slowly stop auditioning for the world is fucking beautiful.

@steipete @WesRoth Can the model do it without the harness? Sounds more like a harness guardrails issue to me

@Juli_Zapata_E @GarciaColorad0 Esta requiere prohibición, Juli. Es un problema del tamaño de la H y el F. También se requiere educación para prevenir, y regulación para dar ayuda de recuperación, pero prohibición sin duda

[Santiago Velez @lovetheblob]

@mcuban That would require people with the power to buy significant stocks to care about ethics, which they don't, because the game itself is made for people that care primarily about money and profits, and ethics tend to get in the way of profits. You should know this already

[Andrei ⚙️ Forklift Interactive @podopriguez]

The best protection against AI copycats is creating a game that can’t be easily copied, or is in a niche you understand better than others.

More intricate mechanics, deeper gameplay, unique knowledge of your genre, balance that keeps your game fun for much longer.

To draw an example from another industry: when pitching a startup to investors, one of the first questions is if your idea is “defendable”. Meaning whether there’s anything about your idea, implementation, or team that makes it hard to reproduce and buys you time to beat everyone to market.

There are plenty of copycats trying to piggyback off successful games. Luckily, most of them fail still.

@NoMansSky Plot twist: None of them are

[Santiago Velez @lovetheblob]

@IamShiroKuroh @stuckinattic Incorrect. Not all AI is generative, and the distinction and categorization is important to address the issues different groups of people have with different types of AI, to create useful legislation

[Santiago Velez @lovetheblob]

@JeandreGerber @kunchevsky Funny. Do you know how to distinguish NPCs from Player Characters? NPCs are the ones whose actions are driven by an AI. Careful you don't end up becoming an NPC yourself

[Kenney @KenneyNL]

I feel it's important to share this again. The internet is so hostile toward creators nowadays. I've seen people have their work stolen, and no longer feel comfortable sharing their creations. We can do better.

Let's be supportive to the people that make this a better place! 💞
