allisonwe don't need your statistical opinions about this triangle, jensen. just put it on the screen, for the love of god
developer: i consent / triangle: i consent / framebuffer: i consent / jensen huang: i don't
what they wrote: "The AI model is trained end to end to understand complex scene semantics such as characters, hair, fabric and translucent skin"
what we understand: "this model is going to do racist and sexist things on previously unimaginable scales"
etc etc
Ramsey Nasser@aparrish this stuff is so fundamentally not why I got into computer graphics. writing a byte into a framebuffer and having it show up on screen is fucking magic. putting some data into a buffer on a GPU and writing a shader and seeing something cool is fucking magic. waiting on an american corporation's black box to interpret "complex scene semantics" to decide what to display is depressingly empty. it's a man in the middle attack on the creative process and it fucking sucks.
@nasser i'm personally looking forward to the day when statistical models of the cinematic image have fully ouroborosed from film to games and back and, no matter what data or code you send to the graphics card, what you'll see on screen is a pair of crimson lips trembling above veiny, buoyant cleavage
