I am not exactly excited with the new project I am on at work, but for once they aren’t violating ADAAA laws under the guise of “training is more important (than your health)”, and I’m getting a small raise next week putting me back to what I was making a couple of years ago (e.g. making up for pay cuts I got when being shuffled around).

RE: AI Megathread
A lot of AI sucks, I can’t stand AI writing, and I hate what it does to artists, but I think there will be much more people in our hobby in five years than there is right now.

This is why they’re also trying to persuade people they don’t need a local computer. Just stream cloud computing! We definitely won’t shut it off for no reason in 6 months

Car troubles. Was quoted no less than $2500+ for repairs in 5 different places.
Last place I called lowered his voice and mentioned I should take it to this other place he knows.
They fixed it for $518, and it works perfectly. I could kiss both the mechanic and the guy who sent me his way.

As much as I truly want that to be the case, as it depresses me beyond words to think that I’m RPing with a shitty robot’s attempt to flatten and average out all the pirated literature it was trained on, local models are a Pandora’s Box that can’t be closed. Even if every AI company shuttered today, a dedicated slopsmith can just run AI on locally installed instances.

This game made me realize what a cure for writer’s block it can be to just zone out and write a few paragraphs of clothing or weapon description prose.

RE: AI Megathread
Saw this article and thought of this thread.
Which made me think: If rising token costs eventually push the average person off of using AI, how much would we actually have to worry about AI being involved in this hobby?
