  • I also think a big part of content creator burnout is the 'everything is content' mindset. If you work in a factory or an office usually you can go home and not be at work any more. When hanging out with your friends or being with your family also becomes content and therefore part of your job, the mental toll clearly becomes unbearable.

  • This is something I think the 'you have to use LLMs or you're falling behind' crowd are missing. Of course these companies want you to become dependent on their product, and unable to complete basic tasks without it, because then when they slap you with monthly fees and ads and tokens you won't have a choice but to pay.

    Use them if they're useful, but don't out source your brain. You'll need it when the enshittification begins.

  • Just started Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice after wanting it for a long time... and I feel like I'm bouncing off it. Having never played any of the Dark Souls series, but having absorbed some of the concepts via cultural osmosis I feel like the game has gone: It's a soullike, you know what to do from here! But I have no idea what my goals are, other than running around and dying repeatedly, and occasionally finding a 'bonfire'.

    I thought the combat was supposed to be a selling point, but it feels really clunky. Maybe I'm missing something, idk.

  • S10 E12 (The Doctor Falls) is the end of (Modern) Doctor Who. Such a perfect episode epitomising the character, and closing an arc for one of the longest villains. He even 'dies' at the end.

    Everything since then has been badly written and purposefully disrespectful to the cannon and the audience, and has wasted so many fantastic actors.

  • Sorry random internet person let me forward your opinion to my old Computer Science professor and have them update it.

    AI as a field goes back to the 50s, long before any concept of machine learning, or what 'intelligence' was possible for a computer to achieve.

  • I completely disagree that it is not using anything that identifies the universe. The visual language of Star Wars is very strong, and even besides the obvious storm troopers this show captured it in its' production design in a way that very few recent introductions have.

    I would argue that almost any frame could be immediately identified as star wars even if you hadn't seen the show.

  • QR codes are a huge problem in contexts like this, because they are easy to overwrite and impossible for a human to verify the legitimacy of.

    This means anyone with a sticker printer could slap a malicious QR code over the genuine one, and you won't know until you've already scanned it. This could easily take you to a clone of the restaurant's website for example, that instead steals your passwords or bank details.

  • I only use it when I know exactly the code I'm trying to produce, but just saving time if it can write it for me. Somewhere I saw this described as 'toil' vs. 'domain knowledge', and it definitely reduces toil even if I have to correct it. Anywhere that I wouldn't know how to correct it, I don't trust it.

  • Write better code, with good names and sensible interfaces. Comments can get bugs just like code, but it doesn't have a compiler or unit tests, so only code review keeps it aligned.

  • Explain Like I'm Five @lemmy.world
