…I’ve said to much…

Which they split the diff and call 55% in the strat guide to give you misguided hope. 😔

Yes, yes they did. It’s actually a pretty fun watch.

It deals with the licensing fiasco that occurred when the game released.

Many companies saw the potential in the game’s popularity and so an all out bidding war/competition for rights occurred between Soviet Government, Bulletproof, Holobyte, Mirrorsoft and most notably Nintendo.

Saw the clips. Not impressed.

Outside of it being a new clickbait trend the movies, the example they are using lose way more because they are totally changing the scene composition.

Consider the attention to detail and visuals in Akira. If they expanded the visuals to be portrait oriented they wouldn’t have such drab, empty, uninspired art in the added space. Which is exactly what AI does in this instance. It makes the examples (Akira especially) look less compelling, less focused, and in the event it does have something decently render takes away from the true composition of the shit so it ruins the content of said shot.

My two cents.

“Sell me this pen”

“Okay.” *takes pen “Write down your name.”

“I need a pen.”

“Exactly. Supply and demand.”

I think that ease of use is the biggest hurdle at the moment. While yeah Mastodon has grown it’s also improved quite a bit. The onboarding is much more streamlined versus six months ago.

Those barriers are getting better but are still there for Lemmy. Apps are starting to come which is fantastic but the users need to want to engage with the platform. Streamlined sign up, improved features and UI improvements will need to continue to evolve in order to grow the user base.

I think that to protect creators they either need to be transparent about all content used to train the AI (highly unlikely) or have a disclaimer of liability, wherein if original content has been used is training of AI then the Original Content creator who have standing for legal action.

The only other alternative would be to insure that the AI specifically avoid copyright or trademarked content going back to a certain date.

I had it on original Nintendo. But the Gameboy version is almost the same (to my knowledge) just without the color pallet.

Also the story of Tetris and how it got lisenced is crazy. The new Tetris movie is a fun (albeit with Hollywood coat of paint) recount.

As a Star Wars nerd, I’ve always liked Obi-WAN Kenobi and LANdo Calrissian.

Tetris. Straight original is so simple accessible and addictive. I really haven’t cared for much else they done with it since. It was perfection also out the gate.

Also, Castlevania: Symphony of the Night. I can play it anytime, anyplace. The gameplay, music, graphics even today just feel so go for being 2D
