Message: [QUOTE="null_exe, post: 563380, member: 27"] This is exactly what I'm talking about, you just assume the worst of anybody who has any negative opinion on AI and resort to name-calling and throwing a tantrum. Hell, I'll even admit to being a hypocrite on the topic of AI. I've spent a considerable amount of my own time and money experimenting with different AI models over the past few years for my own personal projects and going from my own experience it just isn't there yet. Here's some proof if you don't believe me: [ATTACH type="full" width="136px" alt="1000021190.jpg"]214098[/ATTACH][ATTACH type="full" width="147px" alt="1000021200.jpg"]214100[/ATTACH] And this is just the past few months. If I go even further back my dumbass has probably spent hundreds on this shit over the years and I'm not proud of it. So I'm not talking out of my ass here, I really wanted AI to be this useful tool everyone keeps making it out to be but it just isn't there and I honestly don't think it ever will be. Even when you supply your own sources, these models still regularly hallucinate and insert made up bullshit that I have to go in and manually fix. Just getting one to write a simple script to shuffle some file names and randomize music in a game took countless attempts across multiple models to get something that even worked. I would've saved time and money paying someone to do it, or better yet just learning to do it myself and actually developing a useful skill. If that's what it's like for something that simple, I can only imagine how much money and energy got wasted on these translation efforts before they landed on anything viable, because I'm almost certain they didn't get perfect output immediately. I was so excited for the Front Mission 2 translation that was recently posted to the repo only to have it crash on me fairly early on and judging by the amount of hotfixes they've had to release in just the past two weeks to address crashes and other bug it's clear it's a vibe coded mess. That's my issue with these projects. Whether they use AI, I used to not really care and in some cases with some of your posts I do agree with you. The technology isn't going anywhere, but accepting "slop" as it is now gives these companies zero incentive to actually improve or optimize anything. It's the quality that matters, and right now it just isn't good enough. This stuff gets posted here as if it's finished when it clearly hasn't been thoroughly tested, and all that trial and error burns real water and energy that impacts communities, including my own. So yeah, I'm pretty understanding of the people who take issue with it. Criticizing and getting frustrated about the recent flood of shoddy AI translations being uploaded to the repo doesn't make people "luddites", it just means they have higher standards than you. I never said AI discussion was against the rules. I was calling out your behavior of going into threads to provoke people, putting down someone's artwork just to prop up AI, and dragging politics into it by citing old Resetera drama and claiming everyone who disagrees with you is part of some left-wing cult and then calling for mods to ban them. Anyway this is the last response I'm gonna make to this guy. [/QUOTE]
