And obviously platforms will be built for creators/artists/writers/likenesses/whatever to be used by AI (and they get paid for training data) if they’re not being built already.

This is what happens next. The web becomes full of AI-generated stuff, be it art or text or whatever, and people scrape that and train models and it starts consuming its own shit and regurgitating the same kind of stuff. And then human-cre

Blender’s Principled BSDF is based on Disney’s work. Maybe you’re looking for something more advanced, but Andrew Price (Blender Guru, the donut guy) has some decent videos talking about how to create realistic materials with it. I don’t ha

Exactly, the new stuff feeds back into the old stuff and adds to the overall variety. Yesterday I listened to someone cover an Aphex Twin song on a harp.

Tracing over reference images is already widespread in art and has been for centuries. The only difference would be the ability to generate any reference you want. Sounds like a good thing.

I think most of us are pretty new to it since they just opened the beta to a ton of people. I haven't tried to do anything like that with it though. All I can say is it tends to take a lot of experimentation to get what you want. And y

MidJourney is really good at creating abstract images. I’ve been playing with the multi-prompt syntax (::) a lot lately, just combining different words that evoke form or texture to see what it will come up with. I start by testing things o

>adtech If you really work in adtech, then keep up the good work (that’s a sentence I never thought I would type) :) EDIT:(Yeah, I know it would be an obvious thing to throw out to try to turn the tide of the comments on HN :P)

Same here, I’ve been thinking about building something like this for years. I guess execution really is everything.

I worked remotely from Europe for about two months last year, and spent a few weeks in Spain. I just got a travel visa. It didn't even occur to me that it would be an issue. I think they're more worried about you overstaying your

Does it include nearby airports? I have two airports nearby that each have better deals depending on where you're going.

Yeah, same. I thought they would be using satellite imagery. Archaeologists have found Mayan ruins that way because the ruins have a ton of lime plaster and the trees growing above them absorb it the same way. The leaves of the trees above

How do you know when a drummer is at the door? The knocking speeds up. How do you know when a singer is at the door? They don't have the key, and they never know when to come in.
