Lol... That is hilarious..

Yea, I figured as much. Just like any AI thing. Like Siri/Alexa. Because they haven't actually made real AI yet. Only algorithms that take a large set of options, and output any of those based on our input. AI right now is more like a glorified librarian than it is AI. But not even that, since...

Not gonna lie, I'm having some difficulty getting through this because of the lack of spacing. I used to type the same way until someone got agitated with me and pointed it out. I'm glad they did though, cuz spacing between paragraphs even makes proof reading my own content easier. That aside...

Not about society. It's a practice that's been going on since around the 1930's called 'Planned obsolescence'. As well as the fact that corporations are greedy, they will cut costs literally anywhere they can. Some, like DuPont, have even gone so far as to put themselves in the history books by...

For anyone unable, or unwilling to click the YouTube link above; the subject is AI art (IE: computer generated art). This is the best, and worst thing I have ever seen in my life.. Why on earth would you automate artistry.. For the people born into this cold concrete world, our creativity is...

I doubt anyone would go out of their way to lie about such a thing on here. With most people, if they don't know, they just won't say anything. As for talking to anyone, I'd probably have to sit on hold for 3 hrs just to talk to someone that barely has a grasp of the English language.. That's...

In BC Canada, it states on the official site, that we're allowed to earn 15k per year without it being clawed back by the government. But there's really absolutely no details regarding that 15k. For example, is that 15k, net, or gross earnings? And does it include or exclude money gained from...

This is kinda akin to offering blunt advice in matters of psychology. I mean, the person did not give us any details regarding his marriage, or the the state of relations with his wife. Too often in this day and age, the first answer to things not automatically working out in a relationship...

"to have a myth is to need no therapy. Campbell advocated myth as a panacea for not only psychological woes but also social woes, and he attributed almost all human problems to the absence of myth." Eh.. doesn't seem like a very helpful person in the healthy growth of society.. to have myth is...

42 here myself. Same here. Been mostly alone since the age of five. Although I always had people around until the age of 18ish. But even as a kid I spent most my time watching tv, reading books, or playing games by myself. If you're like me, then life probably dealt you a honeysuckle hand. Hard to...

I don't come across difficulties in my life, my entire life has been difficult. I know some people come on here since covid, but I've been passively social distancing since the age of five. PS: welcome to the forum (where misery loves company).

Update: OK, I figured out what was up with the rendering, sort of. I mean, I guess Vray doesn't display in the render window, but in a separate window, and only when using Vray GPU. I suppose the 'Vray' setting without GPU is probably only using CPU, and therefore takes too long to render...

Hmm. Well, it took several hours of tinkering around, but I found out why the materials were failing to render. It appears to be some sort of issue with Vray GPU rendering. I put it on regular Vray render, and now everything is rendering just fine. Edit: OK.. everything renders fine in the...

I haven't tried mudbox in an age. I agree about Zbrush though. It's not as bad as Blender, but the UI almost seems like whomever designed it, just wasn't paying attention.. Or like they were one of those types that keeps their bedroom in a perpetual state of disaster area; everything on the...

Fair enough. As I said, I couldn't do it myself, but it is certainly advantageous for those that can. Indeed the horse looks good, especially for a first attempt. I would personally have added more vertices/control points to the mane, but apart from that, it looks natural enough. The random...
