To everyone here I am in need of work and on side working on some personal open-source projects. If I’m going to be unhoused I might as well enjoy it:
Endless Runner Mobile Game like Temple Run but with ninjas and fighting enemies like mechs, assassin fish robots, etc along the way. Going for a retro type aesthetic. Undecided on what kind
A Dark Cartoon Action Rogue-like Shoot Em Up (Think Mouse: P.I. For Hire mixed with Vampire Survivors) where you are trying to survive against endless hordes of enemies and collaborating with or fighting against other players depending on the gamemode (Maybe both at same time for one gamemode)(To see how to implement local co-op too)
https://youtu.be/9nrmJSgqYTIhttps://youtu.be/iIlkIA6lxl0
A Conker-like spiritual sucessor game with a brand new open source mascot at the helm (Will see how to have other open source mascots part of the story in some way too in a tasteful way)
https://youtu.be/bTsNc_Bh17Yhttps://youtu.be/eorXCzJlpJ8
A Short Animation series about Mini-Kaijus and their adventures about going around (destroying) the world
I’m a newbie for most of this but doing to learn and revise/overhaul as I go and learn more to eventually make these better and build up teams to work on these too (Make a couple game studios one by one eventually as well)
Have more experience with programming but nothing publicly showable yet sadly since I don’t have much confidence/self-esteem in myself and well I have never shown my work before. I’m proud of them and how they play/run. I’m sure people would like them but I don’t know
My ultimate goal though is to make games, animations, and even vehicles that people enjoy using, have fun with to play, and are moddable, and with community creations so you can play/drive them however you want. Building up communities, studios, and more that live well, get paid well, and enjoy creating together
Thinking of making a Ko-Fi/Patreon but have no clue if anyone would even donate to see any of this be fully made and released.
It’s absolutely baffling how the gig-economy had been normalized.
I am a news junkie. Just this week they were talking to a business expert about youth unemployment (note it’s bad everywhere but it’s starting to get bad in 1st world now so we are caring finally) and his response was yeah it’s bad but basically we have to get used to a future of hustling doing multiple gigs with no health benefits because that’s where things are going.
Fucking government is bent over the barrel letting industry define the workers terms of engagement it’s disgusting.
We are still in the Uber-subsidized part of the relationship.
It’s not comparable, the costs for Uber are fixed development costs which decrease per customer with more customers. AI is strictly more expensive the more users there are since the cost is per use. The financial outlook for the industry is very bad, it will probably never be profitable except maybe in some extremely niche situations.
I think they mean the company since they’re the most famous example of subsidising the product to gain market share and their name is invoked all the time in discussions of AI economics
The companies need to at least seem to grow forever. See Facebook to meta VR stuff to AI. The business models could not grow forever that’s the reason for this constant reinvention of themselves.
At some point AI and building these data centers will have to lead to quantum break , wow we have AGI or to monetization.
Who’s going to pay the actual energy costs+ margin for all their tokens? Not me
They have invested too much, it’s funny how the mobs aren’t bigger and with more pitch forks. There is only one way for them to win, and that’s to replace a majority of white collar workers. Almost anything short of that with the amount of money invested and loaned is a failure for the Capital holders. But they hold them hostage because if AI fails, it blows up everyone’s retirement account and the general economy.
I’m just going to note how giga-fucked it is that AI is openly being criticized because it hasn’t led to more layoffs.
Speaking of layoffs:

Just want to point out the “more layoffs”. We are still in the Uber-subsidized part of the relationship.
This is the honeymoon and it ain’t off to a great start

Isn’t most of the cost in the model training?
The cost of inference has passed the cost of training quite a while ago and it’s by far the majority of expenses
