@SonicBlueRanger It’s not Nikki. It’s the wish version. You know, the one that killed people. 🙄

@llozano1366270l @Anne12345610 @charise_lee I live in a tiny apartment on the Peninsula. 🤷

@llozano1366270l @Anne12345610 @charise_lee Like all of Southern California being in San Andreas fault vicinity, or all of tornado ally. Or gulf/east coast hurricane territory, or forest fire territory or mudslide territory or river banks, etc.

Also you’re inflating flooding over the last 50 years.

@llozano1366270l @Anne12345610 @charise_lee No. It hasn’t happened like this since the super El Niño in the 1930’s.

@Updated_Jennie The time I saw him in Who’s Afraid of Virgina Wolfe with Glenda Jackson in like ‘89. It was amazing.

@VistaLargaGames You do this this exacerbates that problem right?

A problem that already exists will get worse.

[Dwayne Douglass @oddjob1138]

@Laineytales Being John Malcovitch, that’s how.

@SyntheticBeef Lying to customers is a really dumb long-term solution. And immoral.

[Dwayne Douglass @oddjob1138]

@bitcloud It’s funny. AI is an inherently anti-meritocracy machine. But it’s been adopted by the right and rejected by the left. Fascinating.

@nemui_nekoooo Corpos don’t have a history of making good decisions. Look at New Coke. People are afraid corporations are going to lay them off and not care about the quality, which is on par for corpos.

You do understand that the underlying issue here is people worried about losing their jobs

[Dwayne Douglass @oddjob1138]

@AlexForbesOps You’re one of those people who everybody at a party makes up excuses to end a conversation with asap, aren’t you?

On second thought I bet you don’t even notice everyone is bored out of their minds.

[Dwayne Douglass @oddjob1138]

@MagoryNET @RisingSunInt_ Which people?

[Dwayne Douglass @oddjob1138]

@RisingSunInt_ You don’t know why?

Did you expect something different? This seems pretty expected now that anyone can make a game. It’s asset flipping on crack.

[Dwayne Douglass @oddjob1138]

@SpacecraftingCG @mbirdini Except you don’t have to do any of the work after setting it up. 🤷

[Dwayne Douglass @oddjob1138]

@_trundler Currently people only care down what seems to be traditional political lines (go figure.) But if mass layoffs happen and people start suffering job-loss before AI has created even a facsimile of super abundance, I don’t think that will remain true.

[Dwayne Douglass @oddjob1138]

@SpacecraftingCG @mbirdini You are still likely always going to be selecting the version after auditioning all the output AI generated. 🤷

But we aren’t talking about the future, we’re talking about today.

[Dwayne Douglass @oddjob1138]

@SpacecraftingCG @mbirdini In blender you have control over just about every aspect of its creation. Using AI you have to wait until you choose the right words to get it to deliver something “close enough.” The tools aren’t comparable.

[Dwayne Douglass @oddjob1138]

@therealcliffyb I misread that and thought it said showrunner, and I was gonna say yes, you should be a showrunner on a TV show.
