Porn, advertising, entertainment. The first one seems to be mostly ignored for now by western model training companies (though it must be difficult to do when your paying processor can destroy your business overnight). For the other two, I doubt the market is so small that it can be ignored.

Prepare in a few years (months?) to see movies advertised as no AI (like they are now advertised as no CGI, as ridiculous as it is).

I would say that it mostly depends on the complexity of the photo. Random Instagram model posing for the camera? You can get it out of the box with a press of a button in your machine. Complex photo with multiple subjects and cluttered background? That would need lots of human work.

I’m shocked. Shocked! Well, not that shocked

I don't know... I tried it in high school when I was bullied and it was not very effective. Though the one time I punched back one of them (quite ineffectively I must say, as I was way weaker then my counterpart) he indeed stopped bullying and we actually became almost friends in the end.

I know, it's an anecdote (one single instance in one single life) and you cannot translate easily high school dynamics with geopolitical ones, but sometimes it's possible to draw parallelism...

And from the voice of Lenin himself (used in a different context by him, but it works very well in this case for modern Russia): "You probe with bayonets: if you find mush, you push. If you find steel, you withdraw". If you find yourself at the other end of a bayonet, you better be wearing steel than going naked.

Super clickbait title, so in case you just want the conclusion here it is: "To my students and to anyone who might listen, I say: Don’t surrender to AI your ability to read, write and think when others once risked their lives and died for the freedom to do so."

But to anyone that might want stop at the title and the tl;dr, i highly recommend to take some time and read the article. It is a well written short story that talks about delegating critical thinking and problem solving to a cheap cop-out and philosophize about the disruptive effects of the technology for students.

And it has some memorable parts, like "The essays produced by ChatGPT, for instance, are soulless, boring abominations. Words, phrases and punctuation rarely used by the average college student — or anyone for that matter (em dash included) — are pervasive."

Yes, but their "main competition" is (WuWa), and when they enabled their anti-cheat for Genshin that broke the game on Linux, they specifically coded a check to keep the game running though Steam (at least this is what people smarter than me says).

Genshin specifically. Used to run it on Lutris, but the new anti-cheat they have would kill it if it's not run through Steam on Linux. Quite sure they want to keep it running on the deck, it seems like the perfect platform for this kind of games (don't have the steam deck though, so don't quote me on that).

I have switched last year and Hoyoverse works without problems (using Steam).

Nope, only lutris bottles and steam. Will try next!

And what's beautiful is that the one right under has a comment "we don't use thi..."

This code looks like so much fun to debug...

I have a 3090ti. Made the switch to Linux last year after reading that most games work. Never had a problem with the card, it works flawlessly out of the box (using the proprietary Nvidia drivers).

It still was a bit of a learning curve for me though... Using steam they work without a hitch. If they are not on steam, I found that the easiest (for me) is to install them using lutris, and then adding them to steam as non-steam games and using Proton to run them.

I don't play that many games though, so ymmv

"In response to an inquiry about why this program was cut, the Office of Management and Budget said in a statement that the program, quote, "wasted taxpayer funds to place climate change hysteria in AI models," unquote."

wow
