@vicious696 Gamers need to not freak out when devs use AI tools to accelerate their workflows. It can really put a dent in those dev timelines if used responsibly.

I'm telling you now expect more God of War and Fallout remake/remasters than Blue Prince and Expedition 33's Dev costs are too high and take too long to ship That cool but risky idea that sounded like a winner 8 years ago might not in step with what the audience wants when it ships today and as a result the game fails which in turn the next cool but risky idea doesn't get greenlit and we get something safe like a remaster or sequel instead I don't have the answers but I do know something has to change if we want gaming to keep evolving and innovating

This is a HUGE improvement for those of you using Meta PCA (Passthrough Camera Access) with Unity. Looks like the WebCamTexture is no longer needed and you can use the new component called "PassthroughCameraAccess" right from MRUK. Just add v81 or greater to your manifest.json "com.meta.xr.mrutilitykit": "81.0.0" Then from any MonoBehaviour add: [SerializeField] private PassthroughCameraAccess cameraAccess; 👀 ShaderSampleManager image as a reference.

So I have been exercising for 60 mins during the last 4 days vs 30 mins + having a huge healthy breakfast + a protein shake. I used to feel tired through the morning but lately my energy is huge right until 9 PM. I wish I had done this before, it may sound simple but it is making me super productive.

Andrew Ng@AndrewYNg·
Some people today are discouraging others from learning programming on the grounds AI will automate it. This advice will be seen as some of the worst career advice ever given. I disagree with the Turing Award and Nobel prize winner who wrote, “It is far more likely that the programming occupation will become extinct [...] than that it will become all-powerful. More and more, computers will program themselves.”​ Statements discouraging people from learning to code are harmful! In the 1960s, when programming moved from punchcards (where a programmer had to laboriously make holes in physical cards to write code character by character) to keyboards with terminals, programming became easier. And that made it a better time than before to begin programming. Yet it was in this era that Nobel laureate Herb Simon wrote the words quoted in the first paragraph. Today’s arguments not to learn to code continue to echo his comment. As coding becomes easier, more people should code, not fewer! Over the past few decades, as programming has moved from assembly language to higher-level languages like C, from desktop to cloud, from raw text editors to IDEs to AI assisted coding where sometimes one barely even looks at the generated code (which some coders recently started to call vibe coding), it is getting easier with each step. I wrote previously that I see tech-savvy people coordinating AI tools to move toward being 10x professionals — individuals who have 10 times the impact of the average person in their field. I am increasingly convinced that the best way for many people to accomplish this is not to be just consumers of AI applications, but to learn enough coding to use AI-assisted coding tools effectively. One question I’m asked most often is what someone should do who is worried about job displacement by AI. My answer is: Learn about AI and take control of it, because one of the most important skills in the future will be the ability to tell a computer exactly what you want, so it can do that for you. Coding (or getting AI to code for you) is a great way to do that. When I was working on the course Generative AI for Everyone and needed to generate AI artwork for the background images, I worked with a collaborator who had studied art history and knew the language of art. He prompted Midjourney with terminology based on the historical style, palette, artist inspiration and so on — using the language of art — to get the result he wanted. I didn’t know this language, and my paltry attempts at prompting could not deliver as effective a result. Similarly, scientists, analysts, marketers, recruiters, and people of a wide range of professions who understand the language of software through their knowledge of coding can tell an LLM or an AI-enabled IDE what they want much more precisely, and get much better results. As these tools are continuing to make coding easier, this is the best time yet to learn to code, to learn the language of software, and learn to make computers do exactly what you want them to do.

Impressive photos taken from my back porch on the Seestar S30 telescope. SOOOO much easier than going out to the dark sky observatory in my past life as a stellar astronomer at Appalachian State University!

When engineers explain to you how a device works, you have to understand that’s a sign of great respect in their culture.
