Understand what? That you have a robot girlfriend you don’t want to give up? That you would burn the world down for Her.

You know, human love is just a biochemical response to external stimuli, I’m sure there’s a drug that can replace it.

Yes, of course. Monte Carlo killed my father.

You know what the problem is? You think that you’re too smart to be caught with a meth addiction. See, your neighbor got fucked up, lost a bunch of his teeth, but you, you know about microdosing.

Your other neighbor fell off a construction site that was missing its guard rails, but that wouldn’t happen to you; you have excellent balance.

The movie Jurassic Park is literally about people like you.

Do you have a reason to restrict Gaussian mixture models you’d like to give me, or are we just pissing in the same bush?

I know. I am perfectly capable of reading more than one comment.

zd9, you are aware that AI is making things worse, you say so yourself, and yet you feel the unsatable need to stand here bitching that no one understands your unique, special use case. For what?

I. Do. Not. Give. A. Fuck. that academics are using machine learning to solve problems. That is their business. <- Is that what you wanted? There you go.

Ooh, that’s sounds cool. Yeah, I’ll look at the third one then.

I really like Etrian’s artstyle. I really should get around to playing it.

I think I’m piggy-backing off of something you’re not talking about, I’m not sure. But I wanted to say it anyway.

The phrase “did you think anybody here wants to hear about instagram” isn’t just a personal reaction,

People say things like this when what they mean is “I don’t want to hear about Instagram” all the time. If you’re listening for it, you can pick language like this out near constantly. It’s really, really dishonest, and it drives me crazy.

A person won’t say “I didn’t like this movie,” but they will say “this movie is bad” because they know the second one gets taken more seriously. They effortlessly move a subjective opinion into the objective, and this is where, like, 90% of arguments about media stem from.

People are constantly embellishing their opinions to seem more important than they are, and I really wish they would stop treating the public consensus like a game of King of the Hill.

That’s not to say that speaking for a crowd is always a bad thing, but god do people abuse it.

AI is just an accelerant for a sick hypercapitalist society that is doomed to collapse.

I had, like, a bunch of paragraphs lined up because I thought you didn’t understand this. But as it turns out, you seem to be perfectly okay with the world being raped to death.

I hope your academic field is entertaining, at least.

Marcel Duchamp is not working on video games.
Marcel Duchamp does fit my definition.

I’m certainly more interested in his work than yours.

Okay, well if you’re going to be like that, I’ll talk to someone else:

An artist’s job is to pull together research, resources, history, knowledge, opinions, their own fluency in the language of the medium they’re using, and a bit of inspiration, and turn that into something interesting, or cool, or flashy, or thought provoking.

AI generation, even for the concept phase, skips 90% of that effort.

You can’t fabricate something with AI and then re-make it by hand later because these are two halves of the same process. By the time the hands are involved, there is very little left for them to do.

You don’t see the use in an artist viewing an approximation of the finished product

I don’t because that’s not what artists do.

Artists are not people who bring nearly finished projects over the finish line. And if your finished project does not look anything like your nearly-finished AI assets, what are you actually using them for?

How is it Mean Girls-esque if they think they’re being nice?

Anyway, no, I’ve seen your other comments, you clearly have a bone to pick here. Honestly, it’s funny that you’re the one telling me about being the rudeness police.

I’m sure Katana is old enough to handle whatever problem may be here on their own.

Dude, you gotta chill.

This is a two day old account.

God, that game makes me horny.

Wait, no one asked… uh… You know, the platforming is pretty good.

This is not good buzz, I promise.

It removed the fog from the foggy town that Grace is standing in.

No, it looks terrible, actually.

Right, it’s all 1984.

The entire point of art, of human sociality, is to lend your heart out, and be lent one’s heart in turn.

You describing this technology as ‘fixing’ old works you can’t stand anymore is the same as rejecting the heart being held out in front of you.

If you want to use the old works to create something new, that’s perfectly fine, but they do not need fixing. You can’t see this because you do not have love.

Yes, that is what ‘absolutely’ means.

but I get the impression many here wish their own preference was enforced on everyone.

Absolutely.

I am also anti cigarettes, anti gambling, and anti toxic river dumping, if you wanted to know.

Final Fantasy IX won’t look like 3D blobs hovering over static, pre-rendered scenes.

God, this is such an unbelievably anti-art thing to say.

I’m excited to replay so many games without feeling let down by my nostalgia filter

You. are. mentally. ill.

I’m not just saying that to be mean. I’ve been reading a lot of Umineko recently, and there’s such a beautiful way of putting this: old games look perfectly fine, “but without ‘love’ it can’t be ‘seen’.” You have no love. This is why you are blind.
