Unless there’s a way to exit game, I’m not sure what difference it’d genuinely make. I am as real as I am.

The world’s richest men are concentrating control over the pipes through which all of this is running, all of our information.
I’m afraid we’re in/nearing the endgame of this tug of war, and we don’t control the physical infrastructure. Without an ISP that isn’t in bed with the government/corporatocracy, I’m not sure how we even keep freedom of speech alive long-term.

Caveat on the drug thing: There is a list of who has a medical cannabis Rx. And I suppose any prescription… do opiods count?

Many medical applications of ML do use transformer architectures, so it’s fundamentally the same technology.
- Comment on Cant Decide 🤖 5 weeks ago:
Usually when people share a post, it’s because the post evoked a reaction, and they want to share that with someone. Making the conversation about the provenance of the post truncates the exchange in an unsatisfying way. For a news story, propaganda, or the like, the source is important. For funny dog videos? Maybe the quality of the exchange is more important. A nice middle ground would be to react as if it were true, and then point out it’s probably AI. Videos are easier to spot, but the difference between an image that’s obviously AI and one that looks real is like 10 min of work in Photoshop. So we’re often better off saving our faculties of discernment for the stuff that matters.

As a practitioner of that dark art, I fear you know not what you summon. You don’t really want Lemmy to be popular, not in a way that traditional marketing is going to make it popular.

As I understand it, CLIP (and other text encoders in diffusion models) aren’t trained like LLMs, exactly. They’re trained on image/text pairing, which ya get from the metadata creators upload with their photos in Adobe Stock. That said, Adobe hasn’t published their entire architecture.

Here’s 60 Minutes’s piece from last month about the vending machine in Anthropic’s office.
- Comment on Journalists convinced a AI Vending Machine Things to give them free stuff like a PS5 2 months ago:
That was all part of the idea, though, because Anthropic had designed this test as a stress test to begin with. Previous runs in their own office had indicated similar concerns.

The Firefly image generator is a diffusion model, and the Firefly video generator is a diffusion transformer. LLMs aren’t involved in either process. I believe there are some ChatGPT integrations with Reader and Acrobat, but that’s unrelated to Firefly.

Adobe’s image generator (Firefly) is trained only on images from Adobe Stock.

Coincidentally, this paper published yesterday indicates that LLMs are worse at coding the closer you get to the low level like assembly or binary. Or more precisely, ya stop seeing improvements pretty early on in scaling up the models. If I’m reading it right, which I’m probably not.

There are AI’s that are ethically trained. There are AI’s that run on local hardware. We’ll eventually need AI ratings to distinguish use types, I suppose.

Yup! Certifying a workflow as AI-free would be a monumental task now. First, you’d have to designate exactly what kinds of AI you mean, which is a harder task than I think people realize. Then, you’d have to identify every instance of that kind of AI in every tool you might use. And just looking at Adobe, there’s a lot. Then you, what, forbid your team from using them, sure, but how do you monitor that? Ya can’t uninstall generative fill from Photoshop. Anyway, that’s why anything with a complicated design process marked “AI-Free” is going to be the equivalent of greenwashing, at least for a while. But they should be able to prevent obvious slop from being in the final product just in regular testing.

The game is Codex Mortis (Steam).
“It’s pure TypeScript. I use PIXI.js for rendering, bitECS for the entity-component-system backend, and Electron to wrap it as a desktop app,” Crunchfest3 wrote. “The whole thing was vibe-coded with Claude Code (mostly Opus 4.1 and 4.5).” The art, meanwhile, was generated by ChatGPT, and the game’s animations “are a shader written by Claude Code.”
