  There is no guarantee a broken game will be ever fixed. See KSP 2.

  Wow, that first one is so cool.

  Yeah, I misremembered the Interstellar paper that said it was the first simulation for a movie and thought it was the first image simulation ever. It’s even referencing the old one there.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨perspective⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  The second one. The image is simulated as how an external observer would see it. It was firstly done for the Interstellar movie.

  Also the 2D gaussian integral is used to give an insight on why the 1D gaussian integral is sqrt of pi. Here is a video with cool visualization for anyone interested.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Eeeeee⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  That should be an approximation. To get exactly pi the range of both integrals should be from minus infinity to infinity like this. It’s the integral of the 2D Gaussian, which is fairly known.

  Yes. Photography captures an instant of the real world. The photographer still has to choose the moment, perspective, composition, filters and so on, but they are very constrained (not as much as AI prompters).

  The debate about the artistic involvement of photography has existed sonce the invention of the camera, it’s not something new.

  There is some technical skill involved in making it output something in the direction you want, but nothing exists until you hit enter, only a vague concept. The process is so detached from the artistic decision making that it is a complete outstrech to call it art. You can never have a personal style doing AI stuff. No vision, no nuances.

  Writing prompts for an image generator doesn’t make you an artist, lol
