@charise_lee Can you post your hot take when Obama spent 2 years and 35 million? I’m sure you did one. Please repost. We wouldn’t want anyone thinking you are a left-wing page Schill, please repost your hot take on Obama’s $35 million spend.
@ProudSocialist Because the thing new graduates want to be reminded of at their ceremony is that Ai is taking our jobs, destroying our home, and costing us insane amounts of money and energy. I hate it here
The kids are alright!!
Former CEO of Google Eric Schmidt gets booed every time he mentions artificial intelligence during his commencement speech at the University of Arizona.
This generation just may save humanity after all.
@MaOcto@neilsonks Dude even auto retopo would make quick work of it, definitely not easier than modeling it from scratch. And it’s obviously usable since it’s *being used*. No one cares what some pedantic asshole thinks
@catmandeath@neilsonks people dont retopo blobs of "scenery" when its a 1000x easier to just model it, but again, its easier to just say you don't know what you are talking about.
The "Mixtape is an Ellison nepo baby project" discourse is peak modern internet: pure, unadulterated grift fueled by people who would rather manufacture outrage than open a single Wikipedia tab.
Let's actually look at the reality of how this game got made.
Mixtape wasn't cooked up in a Hollywood boardroom. It’s the brainchild of Johnny Galvatron. Johnny is an Australian musician who used to front the punk rock band The Galvatrons. In 2017, he stepped away from the band to found his own studio, Beethoven & Dinosaur.
His first game? The Artful Escape. It was a masterpiece that won massive critical acclaim, secured BAFTA nominations, and proved Johnny’s unique voice in the industry. That proven track record and creative success is exactly what landed them the funding for Mixtape.
But sure, let’s ignore years of indie hustle, actual musical pedigree, and an award-winning debut just to chase engagement with a lazy narrative. Do better.
@neilsonks the wire frames and the pictures don't really line up, and the meshes are unusable in any real capacity, but that said love seeing the tech progressing.
@IDKIDC504@OoklaMok@verbaluced@TheFP Circumcision is mutilation and must be stopped. It was designed to decrease sexual functioning and is the main cause of erectile dysfunction.
@AnAverageGamerX Never voiced any opinion on that so it’s irrelevant you are falling for propaganda both games had hate campaigns for entirely different reasons and you fell for one of them without forming your own opinion.
I was a bit hesitant about showing stuff like this just a month ago 😅
When we started showcasing real-time AI + SDF sculpting, I was afraid professionals would laugh if I showed no effort on the input models. The shape strength slider was also hidden in our first iteration, so I had no choice but to at least try and knock some more interesting shapes together.
Now that we're starting to focus on more powerful features and shape strength is finally unlocked, I'm starting to appreciate just playing with simple shapes.
Different stages of production have different needs. Sometimes you want full authoring over your creations, while other times you just want to quickly explore new ideas.
