I have a feeling this experiment would sooner get the axe than have ads injected. There was initially a waiting list, but just a few days in it was completely open to the public.

Sometimes they just do research. Like when their employees made transformers and nothing came of them until Open AI capitalized on it.

There are ads in them now? I didn’t encounter any when using it a few days ago.

I just generated one and didn’t hear any ads.

Further confirmation that Switch 2’s hardware will be hot garbage as well.

Isn’t this just the pay raise the Japanese company is forcing everyone to do? They’re pretty late. A bunch of other companies announced their raises earlier this year. Doing this in October comes off as scummy.

The animation stuff you mentioned exists today:

They tried to make video game rentals illegal in the US. They’ve always been a shitty, anti-consumer company.

Nintendo has always been an underhanded bully. This isn’t new.

You can never learn anything with these clickbait headlines.

You keep moving the goal posts and putting words in my mouth. I never said you can do new things out of nothing. Nothing I mentioned is approaching, equaling, or exceeding the effort of training a model.

You haven’t answered a single one of my questions, and you are not arguing in good faith. We’re done here. I can’t say it’s been a pleasure.

Do you have any examples of how they fail? There are plenty of ways to explain new concepts to models.

What kind of creativity are you talking about then? I’ve also never heard of a bloated model. Which models are bloated?

But at what point does that guidance just become the dataset you removed from the training data?

The whole point is that it didn’t know the concepts beforehand, and no it doesn’t become the dataset. Observations made of the training data are added to the model’s weights after training, the dataset is never relevant again as the model’s weights are locked in.

To get it to run Doom, they used Doom.

To realize a new genre, you’ll “just” have to make that game the old fashion way, first.

Or you could train a more general model. These things happen in steps, research is a process.

There are more forms of guidance than just raw words. Just off the top of my head, there’s inpainting, outpainting, controlnets, prompt editing, and embeddings. The researchers who pulled this off definitely didn’t do it with text prompts.

I mean, you’ve never seen a purple elephant with a tennis racket. None of that exists in the data set since elephants are neither purple nor tennis players. Exposure to all the individual elements allows for generation of concepts outside the existing data, even though they don’t exit in reality or in the data set.

He blames Monster Hunter being available on PC for cheating, but Monster Hunter has always had tools and cheats. An absolute trash take.

Something like this?

Yeah, I’m fine with a coalition being formed as long as there are no people like Sam Altman in it.

The thing about Genshin is that their whole world is set up around nations, and the next one is supposed to be Latin American and West African influenced, but everyone is white. Just like they did the last one, Sumeru, which was Near East and South East Asian inspired. They want the culture with none of the melanin.

So Kadokawa had this failing mobile game named Kemono Friends, but they wanted a TV anime for it, so they get Omoto Tatsuki to direct it. He takes their product and actually turns it into something people want to watch, going as far as, releasing supplemental clips from the show on Twitter and even arranging a collaboration with the Tobu Zoo in Saitama Japan. This collab gave us the tragic saga of Grape-kun the Humbolt Penguin, a meme in its own right. Since the show didn’t have much of a budget he hired no-name voice talent, launching their carriers thanks to the popularity of the show.

Ultimately, it was the clips on Twitter that did him in if rumors are to be believed. He was sharing clips as usual, but Kadokawa wanted that content for the home video special features, so they fired him abruptly. He already saved Kemono Friends for them, so they cut him loose.

I’m interested to see who else they screwed over, considering they also got caught bribing the Tokyo 2020 Organizing Committee to secure a sponsorship deal.
