discussion Anti-Social & Lurker - Hideout spot

[vondoom36]

Yeah I definitely haven't played them all I've been downloading nice looking games over the years, without deleting any. It's nice to be able to browse my own collection whenever I want tho c:

I have this feeling for "regular" games since I started messing around with emulators, and then Retroarch, and then Launchbox... Eventually buiyng a SSD just to manage all the hundreds of games that I downloaded and most certainly never will play lol

but it's a nice feeling

Also found him to have a brilliant line in snark at times, often from completely out of left field.

I loved in DNA Mad Scientist how

Spoiler: spoiler for episode

at the end when the crystal is a bust he says "It appears your crystal is useless. Lucky for you, you didn't trade anything of real value to get it." since they had forcibly cut his arm off. like you said snarky as hell

I do know "ai," and the long and short of it is that these programs aren't actually ai, nor can they actually create anything. If I tell you to draw me an original fantasy creature or an alien, you could come up with something. But these programs, without having any "training sets" fed to them will output nothing. Because they're not ai, they're very complicated collage producing programs. They're amazing for what they are, don't get me wrong, but they're no more than that.

I get your point, but what I'm saying is that there’s more to it than just copy pasting and stolen work from random artists.
AI like SD isn’t just slapping together parts of other images, it’s not copying pasting, it’s learning patterns and ideas from the data it’s trained on, then using that knowledge to create something new.
For example, if I’ve looked at a ton of RPG creatures and aliens, I’d be better at imagining my own unique version, and those image generators AI works in a similar way, gets the "vibe" of what makes something a fantasy creature or an alien and then creates a new image from 'scratch' based on that understanding.
but honestly, I couldn't care less about being 'stolen' work or 100% original, art is made to be appreciated, not owned.
My point is that, first, they're just pixels, not real people, and second, the AI doesn't need to see a blonde woman to create an image that resembles a blonde woman (just don't expect too much). But after trying to remember how this 'argument' started, I understand that both points are 100% based on morality, so there's nothing we can do to change each other's perspectives. But it's good to see someone at least being able to have a good conversation and not just and not just throwing the 'ew you're a criminal because your pixels don't look pixelated enough like mine'

I'll merge this comment later, it's perfect and I could understand better your 'side' of the topic

As far as I'm aware, for the US at least, precedent protects depictions of fictional minors, at least at the federal level, so long as there was no usage of real minors in the production of the material.

we spent some time trying to get some facts about that, and a lot of countries yes, the only cases involving real jail time are the ones linked to real people, like deepfakes, sharing or involving minors in any way etc etc etc

So, if there were an algorithm capable of producing a photorealistic image completely free of training sets, precedent argues for the protection of the output.

I think the problem is when the image is so 'messed up' that the head looks way younger than the body (the most common case, as it's easily dismissed as just creepy and not 'dangerous'), when things start to get too complicated, the law tends to ban everything, maybe not enforcing it too strictly, but making it technically illegal.

I do agree with the opinion that the puritanism would likely win out on that one though. Too many people have a difficult time separating fiction from reality.

people are reporting us for random pixels, not even close to the level of realism we're discussing, they don't gain anything from that, but in their minds, they're doing something good to society because they're too deep in their own morality

I might be guessing, but I think he DL's them first and then shares them. A lot of them have the same generic "Download" file name when you right click on them- so it's not a direct link.

hey blood, i dont think thats how dentistry works, as conzi pointed out.... our there were some clues you were pointing with your art...
perhaps you have teeth in your ass? idk man, are you a human being or being human?
jk love u bro

Hope you trip to the dentist goes well Blood!
And we'll see you, when you come back here!

I have to concur- even the one that Blood shares with us just aren't up to Flaming1's standards, imho.

@Bloodheart hope the recovery is going well, I miss your bedtime stories my dreams aren't the same without them, come back soon

Well, @Bloodheart is a pirate sack of crap the likes to hate and abuse elves.

Damn man that shit sucks. I've always hated going to the dentist. But as a kid and teen the dentist I had always hired young hot eastern European women that would constantly shove their tits in my face when they helped out.

hmmm hadn't thought of that. I guess yeah if they are the owner of the practice it would make them more money. As long as the delays and bad service don't drive people to other practices

Well sometimes it's not even that they overbook. I remember one time when I had the first appointment of the day with my doctor at 8am. It wasn't till about 8:30 that I saw the doctor walk into the clinic and another 15 minutes before I was called in, so if you have doctors doing that how do they expect to manage the rest of their appointments through the day.

That pushes everything right by at least 45 minutes assuming no other delays happen. God I need a drink after reading this
