『万引き家族』で受賞した是枝裕和監督はカンヌでの受賞後、日本映画界の資本で撮っていません。『真実』はフランス、『ベイビー・ブローカー』は韓国映画です。その次は、ネットフリックスだという。そのことを、「業界」はどう見ているだろうと考えずにはおれません。

受賞する前に言っておきます。『ドライブ・マイ・カー』が今回、米アカデミー賞で受賞したとしても、それは日本映画の勝利を意味しません。日本映画史に刻まれる快挙に水を差すようですが、実際そうなのです。

@darezzi @timsoret That sounds like an over simplification of how AI art works just to prove your point. The AI conversation is becoming incredibly toxic just because of this. We can do better

@timsoret This is not your art because it's not an expression of your emotional or mental state, or one of your ideas, through a physical medium. You typed in some words and something spit out a bunch of cool looking stuff and you picked what you liked.

These images are generated thanks to billions of influences, exactly like we do. Great to quickly mock up a concept, much faster than doing it by hand. In my case, it's not a problem of skill, I can paint this. So, who did I stole from, and who should I pay exactly?

Happy Anniversary, Heroes! Three years ago today, our first episode dropped. I know we’ve been on a hiatus, but we’ll be back soon! In the meantime, feel free to share a favorite MHH story, moment, etc. Or share something you did that was “heroic” in your real life!

@sadder_than_you @SkilletDoux @Jade_Gryphon Dunning-Kruger is on full display today I see

@SkilletDoux @Jade_Gryphon They are exactly the same art-wise. Only the leap in hardware capabilities at the time sets them apart. MI2 looks like MI1 on steroids, basically.

@TenseiDragon Just saw this now, thank you so much!

@higglety1 @fredbenenson "That one guy" here, my suggestion is to hold the DAO accountable, so they don't sell or destroy the book, not to sell NFTs. The contracts I suggested don't need to be NFTs, but that's clearly what the community is interested in.

@fredbenenson Lol is that one guy suggesting essentially holding the book hostage via NFTs? Am I misreading that? Because it sounds like the proposed message is “if you buy this NFT we promise NOT to destroy this very nice book, but if nobody buys the NFT who KNOWS what could happen???” 👀🔥✂️

NFTs are beginning to resemble Nigerian 419 scams: they self-select for the dumbest buyers because if they targeted anyone smarter, it would be far harder to convince them to pony up cash. Even so, this is profoundly dumber than average: twitter.com/fellawhomstdve…

@tphuth94 I hadn't gone on Twitter for a few weeks because life's been rough and I go on Twitter for the first time in the new year and see this. You just made my day with this and I wanted to let you know❤️

@its_adamneely Has anyone told you about Bardcore yet? It suddenly exploded on Youtube in June. Most of it is fairly meme-y, but there's some interesting stuff too, like this: youtube.com/watch?v=MvAEMz…

@TTakeshi_gplus New season of Gladiabots! Can't wait to see what team you are on!

@RaininSaga Can't wait to see what team you are on!

全モード1800ちょいでGMだね。 まぁレートがインフレするまでしばらくは様子見かな。それかクソザコAI作って遊ぶかも。

@icynewyear Many more mouths?

It has a move called "I have many mouths and I must scream" What more do you want? :P

We spent a lot of work on this. If you'd love to have more Masks playbooks to play around with, try this one and let us know how it went!

@ahmedosama5200 @solidangles @BenHambrecht It's not just an accident, it's literally the definition of Complex Numbers, they represent a rotation of the plane. Personally, I think complex number math is some of the most beautiful math out there (including adjacent math like quaternions and dual numbers).

@Gilberreke @solidangles @BenHambrecht I mean, The fact that multiplying a complex number by another rotates the former is facsinating but It's just an accident, as I said we invented a soloution, and accidently It's got some cool properties. We are just messing with math but math makes sense, Complex numbers are ugly

What is an application that is impossible to achieve without complex numbers. Convince me they are needed, they are fun to work with, maybe they made things easier but we can do without them. #LockdownMath

@ahmedosama5200 @solidangles @BenHambrecht Temperature is a terrible example, because scientists measure it in Kelvin, which can't be negative. What you're saying is that negative numbers come up when they are below another number relatively. Complex numbers and quaternions come up when a number is rotationally relative

@solidangles @BenHambrecht What about 'the temperature is -3', Can you give an example of quantity that can be measured with complex numbers ?

@Butanium_ It was a ton of fun!

I just won the last gladiabots tourney! 100 nodes limited + non limited classes. Ggwp to @Gilberreke who was about to beat me in the semi-finals. Ggwp to theflyingshef : this little outsider who scared everyone was about to win! Also a big thx to Pege who organized the tourney!
