I am once again asking where they think senior engineers come from

Modified slide from microbial science presentation
"Theory - Spontaneous Generation"
"Until the early 19th century, people generally believed in the "Spontaneous Generation of life from non-living matter.
Due to early experiments, this idea was disproved

• Louis Pasteur (1864) - Curved Flask Experiment

Right beaker, corked with "AI". Red meat, all flies dead. Caption "Later..."

YES. I was just thinking about how many useful ideas and real solutions AREN'T being funded - or even THOUGHT UP - because the money and attention is being sucked into tulip bulbs. You've got kids who might have figured out cold fusion spending all their time building AI video apps.

Integration test of the P3 model. Animation handling is easier since this character has no "locomotion" just one timeline I scrub based drift/thrust and a barrel roll. That's a wrap on art for a while, going back to coding for a few weeks. #ScreenshotSaturday ♫ Surfboard (Walter Wanderley) ♫

There's also an AI Man, but an arrow is pointing at it saying "Not that kind of AI"

The narrative that vibecoding is going to usher in a new flood of emulation is less accurate than just admitting that all of the barriers between platforms have been fake since basically the PS4.

In the space of one day I have successfully armed broccoli with firearms. The code to select an animation to use is surprisingly simple, but the code for getting the aim corrected was devious. They can't shoot straight up or down - they'd lose an eye or a foot respectively... #Godot #GameDev

A test area where a broccoli man shoots diagonally downwards at the player.

elif(broccoli.shooting):
var final_sprite:String
var aim_y_sign = sign(broccoli.aim_dir_sprite).y

if(broccoli.crouching): final_sprite = "crouch_shoot_"
else: final_sprite = "stand_shoot_"

match aim_y_sign:
1.0: final_sprite += "diagdown_" if abs(broccoli.aim_direction.y) > 0.35 else "forward_"
-1.0: final_sprite += "diagup_" if abs(broccoli.aim_direction.y) > 0.35 else "forward_"
0.0: final_sprite += "forward_"
match broccoli.shooting_stage:
1: final_sprite += "prepare"
2: final_sprite += "ready"
3: final_sprite += "firing"
4: final_sprite = "crouch_shoot_finish" if broccoli.crouching else "stand_shoot_finish"

func take_aim():
if(target):
var direction_to_target:Vector2 = global_position.direction_to(target.global_position)
#print(direction_to_target)
# Snap Angle to 45 degree angle
var angle_snapped:float = snapped(direction_to_target.angle(),PI/4)
var angle_snapped_fine:float = snapped(direction_to_target.angle(),PI/6)
#print(angle_snapped,"|",angle_snapped_fine,"|",direction_to_target.angle())
var direction_snapped:Vector2 = Vector2.from_angle(angle_snapped)
var direction_snapped_fine:Vector2 = Vector2.from_angle(angle_snapped_fine)
#print(direction_snapped,"|",direction_snapped_fine)
var corrected:bool = false
match direction_snapped.y:
-1.0:
direction_snapped = Vector2(-1,-1).normalized() if facing=="left" else Vector2(1,-1).normalized()
corrected = true
1.0:
direction_snapped = Vector2(-1,1).normalized() if facing=="left" else Vector2(1,1).normalized()
corrected = true

aim_dir_sprite = direction_snapped_fine
aim_direction = direction_snapped if corrected else direction_snapped_fine

It does feel like an insane moment when a company is regulating “cruelty” towards its AI systems in such crudely anthropomorphic terms, while the worth of whole peoples is still treated as negotiable, live-streamed executions are being discussed, & the sentience of animals is still largely ignored

bbc.co.uk

Anthropic bans users from being 'cruel' to its AI systems

The firm said users can no longer engage in "sustained and needless" abusive behaviour towards the tech.

A Godot game in development.
Broccoli clones accost Redd with grenades and threateningly pointing a pistol.

Godot editor
The various controls and parameters for an individual Broccoli man, specifying whether they.
- Spawn facing left
- Are carrying a handful of different weapons or capable of making certain attacks.
- How to move (or not move) whether there's a target and whether they're in water, and if they've taken damage.
- The probabilities that they will take a certain course of action, or look around.
- Connecting them to other men made of Broccoli with a squad control.

this is a great analysis, screencapped cos the quote is too long to fit into bluesky:

YouTuber OzymandiasV2 argues that, seen through this lens, Clark’s ultimate decision to remain in the backrooms at the end of the movie is a great metaphor for generative AI users, saying that there are now no demands for Clark to “change, grow, or express anything resembling an original thought… He can exist without the exhausting labor of producing meaning. This is a similar promise that many find in generative AI.”
