There’s basically no such thing as anonymized telemetry. The data provided is so rich, it is inherently identifying.
Whenever I hear about heart disease, I’m sure glad I have cancer!


Germany famously has some of the world’s most comprehensive social supports. People from my country come to Germany for the free, world-class education!


Very noble and by contemporary standards very generous, though if this isn’t what others are looking for from parenthood, please seriously consider not reproducing.


The primary user has stated it’s because of AI. It doesn’t have to be effective to be the motivation. But also, the stated motivations don’t have to be the actual ones.

That’s savage.


Man, try using the Internet after 40. EVERYTHING is a stupid in-joke with no explanation. It would be a full time job if I started complaining about it.


how do you know when someone murders vulnerable individuals don’t worry they tell you and tell you and tell you and tell you and tell you and…


Grilled slab of portabella adds a lot of juice and umami without being gooey.


You can get romas at a decent grocery this time of year. They are used for making sauces, mainly.


If you get high to cope, your situation might change, and then you might stop getting high. If you get high because you’re stubborn, well, that sucks.


Content theft is a separate issue. We can agree to ban the fruits of content theft without drawing arbitrary technical taboos.


Markov chains are both probabilistic and data-driven. For example. LLMs are not that far removed from markov chains. Should game developers be allowed to use latent spaces or is that too sloppy AI?


Okay, but (ignoring that procedural generation can also be probabilistic) what is the functional difference? The point I’m getting at is that you cannot banish the one without necessarily limiting the other.


I think you are reading in the “designed by humans” part. Even when that is nominally true, the whole point of procedural generation is to create a level of complexity and emergence that the outputs are surprising and novel. Things no one expected are desirable. I think the distinction being drawn is not meaningful; in both cases, it is entirely possible and likely that no human being understands how a given output was arrived at.


If you’d had an opinion that was relevant to the question, you would have understood the question. This thread was not for you, and I see no advantage to make it more accessible to someone with nothing to contribute. It’s fun to “get it” and if you don’t get it, dumbing down the reference isn’t going to make it fun for you, it’s just going to make it less fun for others.
Are you joking right now? Acting like you just won the argument??
