It is getting tiresome. It seems the main lemmy communities are worse hiveminded than reddit.

That is the whole goal with automation right? I don’t think that is how is going to pan out. With all the extra money guys like zuckerberg are going to feed their cows with nuts and beer.

You are right in saying that all studios who can work for less money will do. That is the scary part for thousands of people working in animation and film.

Tech people doesn’t know about art, well I’m not sure, but that is irrelevant as AI are trained on existing top of the line art made by the best artistis in the world.

On the renderman subject, that is not correct. Renderman is a render engine for 3d softwares. AI doesn’t need a render engine at all as it produces images by itself. And for movies like topgun a number of different engines are used, renderman, vray, Arnold, redshift, unreal, etc.

You joke, but as a cgi animator I’m kind of worried. It is evolving so fast and has gotten many people I know out of their jobs (concept art, photography, illustration) and it seems like is just a matter of time for the techbros to perfect these tools for animation and video.

I’m really really hoping to be wrong.

What kind of music do you like? I love finding and sharing music.

I’ll join you during regular season.

Democracy and freedom work within the law. You are free to run if you haven’t broken it.

Many laws are based on practical reasons. Forbidding a criminal to run for president is one. Or will you be ok if for example Putin ran for the american presidency letting the people decide?

Imstance dependent. In mine it reads as the derogatory for people with cognitive disfunction.

Advertising illustrator. So not tech related.

Love them. Great work.

I don’t know anything about RSS. Can someone point me in the right direction to start?

Trees are a luxury, growing something like that takes time. I hope they really have a good reason for doing what they did.
