daym, you take me back. Pre or post A:NR? :D
check the ko-fi. It shows how much progress we have to cover the costs until June
My gimp skills are almost non existent. But I can sent you the files and see of you can improve them
The ai horde already takes care of any problematic stuff. This is all solved
That's orders of magnitude harder in a bad non automated than what I'm going now for worse results and more risk. It's a frankly terrible idea
And generated content can be randomized and automated, which you can't do with existing content, which is what I wanted to do
If you didn’t, then you wouldn’t be in this thread defending your creative choices. You could have ignored me like a person who doesn’t care would do.
I am autistic. I actually hate that my brain is forcing me to reply to this drivel.
My PC idles at about 75W, and tops out just shy of 600W with all cores, cards, and drives running.
Great, so a generated image would be done at 2-10 seconds at like 200W usage. Anyway, this is a stupid argument. Even if it's not as an mp3, it's like a movie, what-the-fuck-ever.
Yes and yes. This is using the AI Horde already.
I do automation for a living, I’m well aware that computer engineering can be a creative process, but it is not an artistic one.
Great? I find the automation creative.
I don’t like seeing visual art automated.
I don't care?
I don’t know what’s in your computer, but some high-end graphics cards can pull more than 300W at full load all on their own. 400W total power output seems a pretty conservative estimate to me.
Most high-end graphic cards actually use close to 100W when not in demanding workloads. Mine certainly does.
400W total power output seems a pretty conservative estimate to me.
You said double that. Most people's PCs idle at 200-W300W as a total. And even if 400W was the total PC usage, as I said, my PC is already on.
No, you told a computer to do it for you.
And the process of setting that up is creative?
If you want to create art, then create art. Don’t pretend that automating a script is an artistic process when it’s barely even engineering.
Hate to break it to you, but programming is creative plus I don't like making visual art manually.
To use your numbers, 2-3 seconds at a conservative estimate of 800 watts is about half a watt-hour, roughly $0.08 on the average American electricity bill, and about 200,000 times more than the 0.0000026Wh energy cost of a 4mb download.
"A conservative estmate of 800 watts"? Where the fuck are you getting these number mate? My GPU at full power is not even half that.
lol, never heard ML being "lemon" and trot being a "tatertrot". Cute!
