The main point cryptobros are missing is that the economy is controlled by force, something you can experiece if you are sailing in the persian gulf these days.

Even at the scale of a family, my taxes are collected once a year and if I don’t pay the nation comes collecting their due by force, via the law enforcement.

All these cryptomoneys have the notable bug of not being controllable by the nations controllong their economy, so come a sufficient magnitude of value transfer they will be rendered illegal very fast. You ain’t getting paid with it, you ain’t buying food or or mortgages with it.

You can buy drugs and killers with it though, which is nice if you are into that kind of thing.

Nah, not posting as I like to keep it anon sorry. I am a beardy guy with a lot of cute cartoonish animals and characters. My goal is to have my and my friends kids pass the afternoons colouring in my rabbits and fishies on my arms

I’m one of those that tend to sleep, I also like to speak and would never look at my phone as I find that both disrespectful and a loss of a nice shared moment.

If the artist is zoned in and won’t speak I will just chill and fall asleep, but will happily talk for a few hours if spoken to. I am just a bit sensible to endorphines so I am actually quite drunk while getting a tattoo, and probably not a very good converstation partner.

I agree, within a minute you can either search on some search engine that censors a bit less stuff than google, like for example duckduckgo, or even asking chatgpt with some very light deception gets you any info your hearth desires

Polys is not where expensive computation is. The bottleneck is raytracing and volumetric fog etc. All those things that make a game look more real and natural.

I think this dlss stuff could potentially substitute raytracing and other light/shadow/reflections/transparency things that are very expensive to both program correctly and calculate every frame.

My two cents

As part of my job I need to write emails in other languages wich I do speak fluently but don’t master grammatically. English for example. Any half modern AI can ingest my text and spit it out looking better and more professional without me loosing 10 minutes perfectioning an email that takes 1 minute to be written in my language.

Works as designed, these are tools. Imagine if you are using a hammer to drive a nail and every time you hit it, a looney tunes character appears telling you a joke.

The current generation of ai tools cannot be used for creative work, creativity and originality is not were they shine.

They shine in information retrieval and text/media generation, and that is how they can amplify the productivity of people that do the creative work.
