This is the killer aspect of it. Running an image in a <5 mins on a Mac is amazing when you consider the alternatives atm.

The implicit argument here is that humanities grads are somehow more likely to "rebel" because they are disaffected due to overproduction of similar deluded or "fake" elites. This is like a 90s deadbeats vs suits style b

Someone should build a peer-to-peer rating and review server for the research outputs. Sci-hub was great in its time but there's a need for something better now. Also, will the act cover historical gov funded research?

The economist meets the standards for a well written publication. However, it has a kind of faux-objective style. Meaning it uses the presentation and style of an objective and scientific publication but has an overwhelming subtext: mindles

Start with Youtube, in particular people who describe how to actually build various energy related technologies from wholesale materials. For example Robert Murray-Smith. I would stay away from tech analysis types who just overhype a partic

Yeah, it's just interesting research. We can make chairs pretty well at this stage too via lots of different methods. For example, steam bending is pretty common as a technique and isn't that revolutionary.

Anything like this is worth trying. Enhancing the reliability of peer-to-peer peer review on preprint servers so they become the de facto publishing base would be ideal. Think how many younger students could start publishing at undergrad an

Yeah, why not. It's already like/comment/subscribe model via publishing online. This would add a dislike button and you could have it so it costs karma etc. Would be preferable imo.

>maybe time to find another website to post your vaulted insights on then P.S. how is this a vaulted idea or not relevant to "tech"? We are discussing a country that swims in its own pooh because the government (de-facto) contr

This article overly focusses on language derived synthesis. Obv because prompt engineering is a topic atm. H/w style transfer, image to video, etc is not necessarily derived from linguistic inputs if it's unlabelled. We could also

Open source and replicable studies means going back to the fundamentals of the scientific method so this is a good step. I would love to see more peer-to-peer peer review technologies and websites developed though. There really is no reason

You have multiple comments discussing economics, politics of technology, and politics generally. Just look.. they are there. You are insinuating that this story about politics and economics should not be treated in good faith because the po

Hmm..I think the implementation of this stuff will also be via GUIs or even embedded AI (for music or like a SD modded 3D printer that dreams and prints in response to the artist). We will end up ascribing this to individuals who, possessin

"What is clear is that we will need to adapt to the new normal" Ah yet again, how enlightening. How many times can this phrase be used and still have any meaning?

A "negative vibe man" comment. A quick scroll through your comments shows lots of commenting on topics involving economics and politics. Offhand it would be easy to ascribe a "slant" to them. This is in bad faith. Please

Seems like they are annoyed that the Conservatives can't meet the minimun standard requirements for governing a country. Seems accurate on many levels.

Engerbrained morons. Kind of crazy to be put in a position of supporting Facebook but there you go. Didn't Grant Schapps just suggest number plates for bicycles? This is in the same territory but much more dangerous versus freedom of s

Generative art and by extension DALL-E has a very fast attention decay imo. We can't avoid noticing patterns and getting bored by them. This makes art and music fun because the things that stick and stay interesting JUST DO for some un

Which one do you have? I wondered if the 2000 Series is better than the AD2 as its a good bit cheaper.

by xor99 4y ago
+1 for the AD2. Its sort of like a pocketknife tool (e.g. obv not the best available for any price but very versatile) and is easily scriptable in c++/python.

This article overgeneralises about art by subsuming all art under the category of visual art and more specifically digital visual art. The question of whether AI is art poison is not well formed because of this assumption as you are just ta

If this all worked in a fair way it would be treated similarly to sampling in music where the original artists get a royalty each time a track is used. If that source is clear like where it's "x in the style of y" using these
