What is going on with the world... (XY)
Valve: 350 employees Epic Games: 4,000 employees Valve: $17B annual revenue Epic Games: $5-6B Valve charges devs 30% of their revenue for simply listing their game. Epic Games charges devs 0% revenue share on the first $1,000,000 Valve is one of the greediest companies in gaming. You cannot be pro valve and be pro developer at the same time.
A lot of people are training hard while recovery, sleep energy and life suffer heavily. You can keep performing for a while like that, but you are digging a deeper hole. Sometimes, cutting back can be the most pro-metabolic move you can make. Article linked in first reply.
In case you didn’t hear, Scotland has voted NO to assisted suicide!!!!!!!!!🏴🍾
After this whole debate about DLSS 5 I came to the conclusion that most of the people talking about it are completely unaware of what they don't know...they're on the peak of ignorance and don't even grasp how little they understand. They just heard generative AI and like Pavlov's dog they just start drooling thinking it's the same shit as unethical slop image generators...for the love of Christ...go and educate yourself before raging on the internet for no reason. DLLS 5 is not a prompt based generator...it's not creating stuff based on someone else's images and hallucinates results. It uses the information from the raster to build up a final render frame with the same information but with better lighting and shading... I'll even give you an example on how much of an impact better shading and lighting has. This is a character I've worked on not long ago. On the left you have a raster render, with some bad shaders. On the right you have a render with raytrace on, a much better shader for both hair and skin. They don't even look like the same person...do they? This is what DLSS5 is doing....getting a result like the one on the right(tbh a lot better) at a smaller cost than actually rendering it. Still the same geo, same textures, same light sources. Some of you will go and say the one on the left is better and it's the artist's vision. It's not...it's just the artist's limitation due to shading and lighting constrains. Every single artist out there would love to get the right result in real time.
It’s less about a sudden shift in sentiment and more about a structural collision. Valve is currently staring down a £6.7bn antitrust claim in the UK over its 30% commission. The "world" isn't suddenly against them—the regulatory landscape is just finally catching up to a 20-year monopoly that’s been unchallenged for far too long.
We're looking for a name for this amazing Renaissance painting. 😂 What would you call it?
17,000 tokens per second!! Read that again! LLM is hard-wired directly into silicon. no HBM, no liquid cooling, just raw specialized hardware. 10x faster and 20x cheaper than a B200. the "waiting for the LLM to think" era is dead. Code generates at the speed of human thought. Transition from brute-force GPU clusters to actual AI appliances. taalas.com/the-path-to-ub…
I'm sick and tired of the people who don't understand why I spent $20,000 on this set up, and plan on spending another $100,000 by the end of the year IT DOES NOT MATTER THAT LOCAL MODELS AREN'T AS GOOD AS OPUS 4.6 That is not the point. The point is me being able to run a swarm of local AI agents powered by local AI models unlocks a world you can't imagine A world never discovered by humanity before Right now, as you read this post, I have multiple local AI models reading thousands of posts on X and Reddit Hunting for challenges to solve Those local AI models are feeding hundreds of challenges a day to a manager model The manager model (Henry) decides what the company (Alex Finn Global Enterprises) will build. The company is constantly working. Constantly researching. Constantly building. Constantly shipping If I did this with local models I'd be spending $20,000 a month on API calls. With my set up, it's free. I have an army on my desk. Never resting. Never eating. Never complaining. Always conquering. Here is your problem: it's not that you don't understand this. You don't want to understand this. You don't want to think this is possible. Your brain doesn't want to believe this is the world we now live in. It is. And the faster you can accept this and get on board, the faster you can enter the new society. Otherwise, you will forever be doomed to the permanent underclass. Make your choice.
