  • I suppose similar in the sense that the housing bubble involved a bunch of rich idiots speculating on bad debt that had been vaguely washed to make it look good and now we have a bunch of rich idiots speculating on AI based on vague promises that it'll be good.

  • That's the great thing about the latest update, you can genuinely stay in your corner and be peaceful and when that criminal syndicate on the other side of the galaxy wrongs you, you can just infiltrate the governments of the empires with the strongest militaries to goad them into a proxy war against that criminal syndicate.

    Though as someone chronically bad at being evil in stellaris I usually end up just using it to make everyone focuse the crisis aspirants before they can snowball.

  • I think part of the issue is that people on the left also tend to see nuances, which means more things to disagree over. Left falls out, right falls in line and all.

  • Same thing unfortunately. No honor in a real fight.

  • Clover is honestly fine, its short so even if it spreads into your flowerbeds its not going to do any damage, in fact since its a nitrogen fixer it might even help, and insects like clover a lot more than grass

  • As a passable quality 3D artist who does it for a living I've found AI art (which can do 3D now to some degree) has kind of narrowed the scope for me. If you want generic Unreal style pseudo-realism or disney toon then AI can do that for you* I've had to focus much more on creating a unique style and also optimizing my work in ways that AI just doesn't have the ability to do because they require longer chains of actual reasoning.

    For AI in general I think this pattern holds, it can quickly create something generic and increasingly do it without extranious fingers but no matter how much you tweak a prompt its damn near impossible to get a specific idea into image form. Its like a hero shooter with skins VS actually creating your own character.

    *Right now AI models use more tris to re-create the default blender cube than my entire lifetime portfolio but I'm assuming that can be resolved since we already have partially automated re-topology tools.

  • As with every profession every generation... only this time on their own because every company forgot what employee training is and expects everyone to be born with 5 years of experience.

  • This looks like it would take more than 4 years to build properly... implications?

  • Unfortunately anything capable of interstellar travel is beyond anything earth can offer, even as a place to live. The only truly unique things we have are our biosphere and culture, both of which can be sampled covertly.

  • Its worth remembering that EU fines are not one and done, if you don't fix the problem they fine you repeatedly.

  • Well jokes on them because I frequently think about things that I then struggle to articulate and its very frustrating! Though more seriously I wouldn't say language is a hard limit because otherwise we would never need to come up with new words in the first place.

  • To be fair fusion energy got less than the minnimum 'fusion never' funding, AI on the other hand is getting all the money in the damn world.

  • To be fair the pilgrims were offered sanctuary in other countries first and then got mad that everyone wasn't exactly like them. That said a lot of the other initial colonizers were people being outright evicted from their home countries for non-religious reasons.

  • Gotta love being in the 'The president from idiocracy is more qualified than many world leaders' timeline.

  • To my undertstanding it invokes a particular steriotype of a bunch of white people living trashily in a trailer park, usually while thinking they're better than everyone else.

  • I feel like LLMs didn't hit a deadend so much as people started trying to use them in completely inappropriate applications.

  • Agreed, a lot of sci-fi infastructure is technically feasable its just the logistics and our lack of organisation as a species that gets in the way. We could also technically start on a dyson swarm and a lunar space elevator (not an earth one though) with modern technology and materials.

  • Rom, Garak, Nog, Garak again?

  • Don't forget a bar, there's literally a whole episode about how much trouble everyone on the station is willing to go to in order to continue having a place to drink.
