brilliant suggestions !! To care for what you have is the best approach in my opinion.

COM !! I remember that was the biggest idea that I learned and thought if I can get it right, I will be the best programmer ever. And to learn, I bought my most expensive book by Dale Rogerson if I remember the author's name correctly. But it was a different time and soon everyone was talking about Java. Just nostalgia and I remember my past.

I love Cloudflare but not a big fan of Next, I love Remix though :) But getting to make things work on Cloudflare is a pain, hopefully they will make it easier with OpenNext. On the other hand , maybe they can do something better at infrastrucute level , rather than make it easier, like a lot easier to bring your own JS flavor.


I love brazilian Portugese becuase I love Brazil and it's people and culture. So I listen to a lot of brazilian music and I am always curious about lyrics. I try to sing along, but it's hard sometimes to read it in english and pronouncate, sometimes 't' is 'chi' ... I might be wrong , I am new to the language and I am learning. I have picked up a lot of words in my subconscious and I know what they mean and this is probably a good way learn in my opinion.


In most of Brazil, the "t" or "d" followed by "i" is pronounced as "tch", like in "cheese".


This is the kind of activism in privacy appreciate that we need. I knew I did not want to verify but I did verify on Linkedin recently. The fact that the author also gave an action list if you are concerned about your privacy is just commendable.


Exposed what ? It has brought some great talent to the country and helped with talent immigration for sure, everyone knows it. There is a phase when there is a sacrifice for the candidate but then people change jobs even when green card processing is throught the stages.


> then people change jobs even when green card processing is throught the stages.

Finding employers who will sponsor is not easy so the employees are essentially locked to the sponsoring company, dont complain too much.


Great post, I certainly feel you. Not just the anxiety but the need to push myself more and accomplish more now that I have some help. Setting right expectations and what is more practical and not every "AI magic post" is worth the attention, has helped me by not being anxious and with the FOMO.


Thanks <3

I've started doing it now, still needs to work on it. Thanks for the tip though, i hope it is working well for you!!


It does I am sure in small instances, but isn't it established that it causes more anxiety in general ? I read a linkedin post about this guy on Linkedin asking a lady to "fix her hair" as a comment to something he probably found offending and to that another guy was asking the lady to shut up and that she was wrong to call out this man in the first place. I wanted to add my comment to this other guy and I could instantly feel all adverse emotions and eventually had to calm myself down and stay out. So when someone supported her , she definetly found her support and courage but many still find the anxiety in all kinds of social network, even with a verified person.


What’s the endgame here? For a small gaming studio, what are the actual implications?


It means you should go the other way. Open world winning against smaller, handcrafted environments and stories was generally a mistake, and so is this.


What does it mean, that open world winning was a mistake? That the market is wrong, and peoples' preferences were incorrect, and they should prefer small handcrafted environments instead of what they seem to actually buy?


The endgame has nothing to do with gaming.

The goal of world models like Genie is to be a way for AI and robots to "imagine" things. Then, they could practice tasks inside of the simulated world or reason about actions by simulating their outcome.


It seems to be generating images in real time, not 3d scenes. It might still be useful for prototyping.


There are collisions though and physics seemingly, so it doesn't seen to be a huge stretch that this could be used for games.


I would think that building a environment which can be managed by a game engine is the first pass. In a few years when we are able to render more than 60 seconds it could very well replace the game engine entirely by just rendering everything in realtime based on user interactions. The final phase is just prompts which turn directly into interactive games, maybe even multiplayer. When I see the progress we've made on things like DOOM, where it can infer the proper rendering of actions like firing weapons and even updating scores on hits and such it doesn't feel like we're very far off, a few years at most. For a game studio that could mean cutting out almost everything between keyboard and display, but for now just replacing the asset pipeline is huge.


We seem to think that Genie is good at the creative part, but bad at the consistency and performance part. How hard would it be to take 60 seconds of Genie output and pipe it into a model that generates a consistent and performant 3D environment?


I understand the ultimate end goal to be simulation of life. A near perfect replica of the real world we can use to simulate and test medicine, economy, and social impact.


Screensavers for robots?


Can someone with technical knowledge explain the key differences between the assisted driving technologies used by Waymo, Tesla, and comma.ai?


Waymo put a ton of sensors, including lidar and cameras, to create a truly driverless experience. Tesla put a ton of cameras to make a mostly driverless experience (but when you need a driver you NEED a driver). Comma strapped a cellphone cam to the windshield to make a semi driverless experience on straightish roads, and a driver must take over when anything complex happens. Source: very happy comma.ai user for many years now


Waymo basically prioritizes accuracy of surroundings. This is why they started to operate only in certain areas after mappings have been completed. Then within those surroundings they do a mix of things including ML reinforcement learning for behavior as well as optimizations in terms of route planning.

Tesla on the other hand basically went on Musk infinite wisdom and said "humans only need eyes to drive, so we are going to do cameras only". Their methodology is essentially end to end - i.e take a sequence of frames, and train a model to predict where the car is going to go based on human driving data.

Comma Ai basically followed Tesla, except they did so with a much more hacked together approach. Their final product is good, but there is a reason Waymo is winning.

Geohot, holding the title for being #1 simp for Musk, of course subscribed to that philosophy.
