Not quite. Larian also wants to use it for concept art, which is not the same thing as placeholder assets. To give you a bit of context, the standard for placeholder textures at the software development companies I worked so far has mostly been “vaguely fitting images you found on Google”.
This is only in regions where they’re being forced to do this. And if the implementation in Japan is anything like what they did in the EU, it’s essentially worthless, as there are way to many hoops to jump through for alternate app stores to make it practical or useful at all.
Looks like it’s this.
Wonder how many of those courses are AI-generated themselves…
I don’t know about him specifically, but I’d say it’s a shift in opinion that many of us went through. 2008 was a very different world. Amazon wasn’t quite the evil empire it is today. It was one of the only usable online shops, leagues ahead of almost everything else available.
Da D. eine KI genutzt habe, sei eine Geheimhaltung nicht mehr sicherzustellen, steht darin. Denn Daten, die in eine KI eingegeben werden, würden zur Schulung und zur Verbesserung der KI verwendet Die neue Bewertung lautet nun: “Eine Geheimhaltung der Anmeldung ist nicht erforderlich.”
Merkwürdige Logik. Nur weil theoretisch die Möglichkeit besteht dass das Geheimnis nach außen gedrungen ist sagt das Patentamt “Scheiß drauf, jetzt ist es uns auch egal”? Bei den Datenmengen die jede Sekunde durch LLMs fließen glaube ich nicht dass die Arbeit des Erfinders die Aufmerksamkeit irgendeines Menschen erregt hat.
Davon mal abgesehen, sehr mysteriös um was es sich hier handeln könnte. Bei “Gefährdung der nuklearen Abschreckung” könnte ich mir am ehesten noch ein Raketenabwehrsystem vorstellen das viel effektiver als heutige Lösungen ist. Wenn es das gäbe, hoffe ich dass es an die Öffentlichkeit gelangt, da damit das mittelfristige Überleben der Menschheit wahrscheinlicher würde. Natürlich um so besser, wenn wir das vor Russland usw hätten. Die dümmste Handlung wäre das Patent wegzuschließen und damit nichts zu tun, bis ein anderer Staat uns zuvorkommt.
Except for the “developing concept art” bit. That’s not some unimportant intern’s work and does have the potential to displace artists. And while no AI-generated content may make it into the game, it does suggest that there will be art in the game that’s based on the AI-generated content. That’s what concept art is for, after all.
Welcome back! BTW, there were some users wondering whether you’re okay some months ago: https://pawb.social/post/33129287
Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 is excellent.
My company has 2 CEOs. One of them doesn’t ever really talk about AI. The other one is personally obsessed with the topic. His picture on Teams is AI generated and every other day, he posts some random AI tutorial or news into work channels. His client presentations are mostly written by ChatGPT. But luckily, nothing is being forced on us developers. The company is very hands-off in general (some may say disorganized) and we can pretty much use any tools and methods we choose, as long as we deliver good results. I personally use AI only occassionally, mostly for quick prototyping in languages and frameworks I’m unfamiliar with. None of the other devs are very enthusiastic about AI either.
Browsing various art platforms, when I see a user where I’m not entirely sure if their art is AI (usually I think I can tell immediately though), I check how old their profile is. If it’s older than 2024, I check how their art from before that year looks. If there hasn’t been a sudden and radical shift in style and skill, I consider the art human-made. Otherwise, likely AI.
That method might be a tad unfair to artists who are only starting out now, but I don’t know of any better way.
Wäre ja auch unpraktisch wenn man das tatsächlich effektiv bekämpfen würde. Wie soll man dann noch neue Massenüberwachungsmaßnahmen rechtfertigen?
That does sound like an interesting scenario. I guess the big challenge here will be getting the actual self driving implemented and approved across manufacturers. Also, if we had that, couldn’t the car just as easily connect to a physical docking port of some sort? But I guess a wireless charging pad would be more friendly to various car shapes.
Good point. Personally, I haven’t actually encountered a charger that was vandalized to a point where it didn’t work though. And I’m not sure whether these are more or less prone to have technical issues compared to regular cable chargers.
Cool, but 10% still seems like a lot for the small convenience of not having to spend 10-20s connecting a cable. Doesn’t seem worth it to me.
I’m 2 hours in and I’m really enjoying it. Visuals and soundtrack are fantastic. Gameplay is mostly classic Metroid Prime so far. Story seems a bit formulaic (Collect X of object Y to escape the planet). Despite what some people have said I don’t find it overly handhold-y, especially for a Nintendo game. The first major NPC you meet, Myles, is a tad annoying but not as bad as some of the previews made it seem.
I think it’s pretty cool. The game does have a lot of pre-written dialogue as well, so it’s just an additional interaction you can have with NPCs. It also does require a detailed backstory, motivations, personality etc to be written for each NPC you can chat with, so I wouldn’t exactly call it lazy.
I don’t really see the similarity, the two letters at the end? If so, seriously? I see it as a lighthearted way to refer to AI in a way that makes fun of people who think it’s this amazing technology of the future, when it’s really just a fancy statistics machine that can’t separate between truth and fiction.
