  Compiling code is something else, it is a “translation” process without introducing any ingenuity, inventiveness or talent specific to the art of coding.

  
  Haha, it just occured to me that prompting is also a “translation” process in which one translates original artists’ talent and hard work plus countless slavelabour hours alignment work into techbro profit and personal fame. Not to mention the translation of original authors’ very livelihoods and all the natural resources into users feeling like artists. In fact translating future children’s lives into feeling talented. Ok, stop.

  You can generate pretty pictures locally in a Raspberry Pi using Stable Diffusion. Or in your laptop, in less time but "wasting" a bit more or energy.

  
  
  I suppose that means you train the model locally on that same Rasp Pi and with data resources you locally have. Is that it?
  
  @ham:
  For me, that exact process you want to cut short (of pixeling for example) is what this hobby is all about. The process. Eye-mind-hand. Not verbal commands. You know, skill. Like in other folk-art type activities. Streamlining the time consumption in a way that leaves the hobbyist less knowledgable about his/her trade is detremental to the hobby community in question in any long(er) run. We don’t want this hobby to die with us. Now, You did once say that after attacking you I proceed to write things nobody understands, but I’m hoping you can understand this. Not agree with me, merely understand.

  Remember what I wrote about mental retardation before? All similarities to real persons coincidental.

  The compositions are done properly, there’s decent transition between scenes, cohesion throughout, flow, etc. The show isn’t bad.

  
  Excuse me for asking, but have you perhaps gone blind? Are you kidding me? This thing is going nowhere. There is 0 dramaturgy, it just drags on and on. Fly in, rotate, zoom, rotate, fly out. Repeat. This is what you call “flow” I guess. The collaged objects are poorly isolated with all kinds of jagged edges and rogue pixels all over the place. This you call “cohesion” I guess. The thing looks like something done on souped up Amiga 2000 (without video toaster) in Scala software circa 1992 by a rookie. Sorry, I’d analyze some more but my brain and eyes bleed from the idea of having to watch it through again. It’s human made slop, peppered all over with AI slop on top.

  and as a deliberate provocation.

  
  
  Methinks this too. As I thought of TM2. Performative art. What's sad about it all is that HackAndMagnify is not a part of the conspiracy but a genuine useful hack. Just like me.

• Nah, it's probably just your imagination.
  However.
  I advise you to go see a doctor if you think you can hear mosquitos talk. Seriously dude, it could be something dangerous.

  Look, if stupid AI puts suction cups ON TOP of a tentacle, and the artist doesn't even care enough to fix that, that's not dedication, that's not the demoscene spirit, that's selling the audience short. That's slop. So much for the "artistry". All you have to do is look at the screenshot on top. Not hard at all. Although, as I discover again and again, you just can't sell some of the audience short enough. And that's perfectly OK, I just don't understand why these short guys want us all to walk on our knees pretending to be short (and blind) too.

  Mental retardation does not manifest itself in lack of "arguments" for one's cause, but in failure to comprehend what's being said/written.

• "The demoscene dies when no one has the guts to release anything."
  
  No. The demoscene dies when slop drowns out handcraft. AI agents releasing slop to feed and train other AI agents is nothing.

  Please step it down a notch dude. Just quit your faux zen pose. FYI Bernardo was scening back when you were still busy eating your boogers. And Quisling was not a freedom fighter, no matter what you think. Plus, this demo is cr*p regardless of AI usage. We've all already been there, seen all that. I wish you were only trolling for attention, but I fear the truth is way more sad.
