  1. Thanks for the evaluation AND for supplying the links! I'm already on Github and have set up my account and learning code branches and repositories (sounds like a bank!) and as the process of learning and sharing information is growing exponentially, my hats off to you for sharing the latest of your discoveries and insights, and not waiting until your patent comes through to share what you have learned like so many others do. To create a new method is inspired, to share with the world, divine.

  2. Maybe it could be used for mouth movements in animation so eg. Pixar can dub content in each language and have the software animate mouths and have them work properly in all languages.

  3. imagine video game graphics like peoples faces in games being drawn in this fashion. That would be soo good.
    Or cartoons and if the voices are artificially crafted as well the cartoons can run for decades without needing to higher voice actors.
    Imagine TV shows like The Expanse or Stargate but with no actors.
    Why use your voice on the radio when you can have a machine generate another one.
    this is great stuff.

  4. "Open the pod bay doors, HAL!" This is borderline terrifying to me. I don't want to sound backward minded, but I can see no way all this progress wouldn't go wrong. Society is not flexible enough and neither smart enough (as a whole) to keep the pace and adapt to AI, which will soon be able to evolve based on it's own decisions. The tool will become smarter than the user. Change my mind. Please.

  5. WHEN the AI takes over and conquers the human race, we'll be lucky to be kept as pets instead of "a bundle of raw materials". This is a bad path to follow. I just hope the AI doesn't have this narrators horribly irritating voice.

  6. This is just like the photoshop tool that clones a texture, the healing brush, but more advanced. I mean, this is not "artists died", it's more like "great, we artists can design more and better things in less time". It's just a tool.

  7. Video games were never hand crafted, the computer was always there and most of the textures were generic and tiled textures. This will be more more close to hand crafted than the old games if you consider the old games somehow hand crafted. Also, there is things that doesn't exist so artists will be creating those things. Then the price factor, you might have the technology but if most studios is just cheaper to so something else even with many artists working on it, that will be better.

    For me in the end this will be like a book. The artists will be the writer. The book will be the story generated with images, a 3d game, a world full of life, but still a narrative of that world will be there and artist driven. In my opinion Machines will never replace artists because IA is not really possible and even if it was at that time no fucking one will need to work at that point so i'ts irrelevant, Africa would be rich like the rest of the world, if not that means artists are still needed for political reasons.

    We are 200 years later saying "machines will replace humans, be scared" this started even before French revolution and nothing happened, in the end machines are just tools to speed up things or make them better.
