Love to see the vocal outrage against Amazon using AI voiceover for multiple anime dubs in multiple languages

Let’s keep those angry vibes going for when your favorite videogame developers start using it k?
An article from Chinese news site GameLook has information on Hoyo’s new game Varsapura

Here’s a quote:

“the game team ultimately wants to create a humanistic sandbox… to generate dialogue with Al NPCs, but more importantly, to drive large language models to generate a network in the city.”

Defending your Thanksgiving with “We don’t use it to celebrate genocide!” isn’t the issue. It’s still poison without a pilgrim hat.

It’s the mindlessness.

It’s the fact you eat a gluttonous meal on our stolen land while our access to food — our salmon, buffalo, corn — remains decimated. (1/3)

Yes, HID headlights are very bright but the bigger problem is the proliferation of gargantuan vehicles with 5’+ hood heights so that if you’re driving a normal sized car their headlights are at your eye level rather than seat level like they’re supposed to be.

They include a range of cognitive tasks, such as recalling a sequence of numbers backwards, general knowledge quizzes, and personality and emotional testing.

The (marketing) trend of calling every related to machine learning “AI” when what’s being used right now is a very specific technology, LLMs, is insidious because it dilutes a complex topic and makes it really hard for less technologically inclined people to understand what’s actually going on

All these "but Nintendo, Sony and Microsoft let you download your old purchases" people forget about already existing failures like OnLive or Stadia.

I'm not expecting the big 3 companies to go under but it could happen and their legacies will just be purely physical games and illegal preservation.

i can tell you even before anything leaks they did not save money on this, the fact that they explicitly dont say how much they spent or break down production tells me thousands of hours and millions of dollars went into "fixing" every bit of footage and its still a twitchy uncanny fever dream

The company used even fewer people to make it this year

YouTube TV's contract dispute with Disney, which has led to the blackout of ABC and ESPN from YouTube, is a reminder that streaming services are subject to blackout at the whim of corporate greed.

Jimmy Tatro is gonna die so fast in Scream 7. Too bad the studio fired its lead for speaking in support of Palestine.

Jimmy Tatro in Scream 7*? After they had Josh Segarra in Scream 6 it feels like they’re targeting all my favorite TV himbos and I have zero complaint 🤣

A Jimmy Tatro cameo won't get me in the door but I might watch a Scream sequel with him in the lead. Like Ghostface calls him all "What's your favorite scary movie" and Tatro bores him/her/them to death talking about Twitch streams and Reacher.

If you're going to volunteer at a food bank because of the current times, please consider wearing a mask when helping distributing food. Even if they're not wearing a mask themselves, poor people have enough to deal with right now, getting an infectious disease just adds to the burden.

it's important to remember the people doing this aren't "just following orders," they signed up to do this, they're excited to do it, it's what they want to be doing, and each one of them is personally culpable for the entirety of ICE's conduct
In video provided exclusively to MSNBC's The Weekend: Primetime, immigration agents are seen attempting to pull a man out a window of a Chicago home. Agents also jumped a fence into the locked backyard and manhandled people doing work. Hear from the homeowner tonight on The Weekend: Primetime.
