I have a physical object that I can take photos of from all angles and I want to turn it into a relatively low-poly 3d model for a game (mapping the photos onto the surface). I feel like there's gotta be some simple non-AI tool to handle this?

The current moment of AI doomerism reminds me so much of the millenarian, apocalyptic thinking of evangelical Christianity it’s uncanny I think it’s safe to say that the Singularity was modeled directly after the Apocalypse/Tribulation/Rapture/End Times, whether consciously or unconsciously This isn’t widely known, but the bestselling nonfiction book of the entire 1970s was Hal Lindsey’s The Late Great Planet Earth. It claimed to predict the imminent end times by mapping biblical prophecy to current events, like Israel’s founding as a state, the Soviet Union, and nuclear weapons He predicted… Related

rather than mapping PMs to teams where you kind of assume that the PM will always do that, we tend to map them to kind of problems or kind of like core projects.

I think "being real with yourself" is the most underrated cognitive skill for the AI age — AI makes it too easy to lie to yourself: to self-congratulate for the illusion of thinking, productivity, etc. But you gotta actually know: Am I being more productive, or just tokenmaxxing? Am I upskilling myself with AI, or letting it do the hard part for me? Does my essay/business/product idea make sense, or did I let an LLM convince me it does? Then you won't need hard rules like “always/never use AI for X.” If you pay attention and avoid self-deception, you'll be able to *feel* when you are doing re… LLMs Related

What is a korrent?
A korrent is a belief a person has stated in their own words: one
sentence stating the claim, backed by a quote and a source, kept at
korrents.com .
Under a name here, the quoted block is what they actually said.
The korrent beneath it is the claim those words support, in
korrents' wording — tap it to see the record, its source, and who
else holds it.
Nobody here wrote their own korrents. They are compiled from public
statements, and a person can change their mind, which is recorded too.
Got it
About the English under a post
Some people here publish in a language other than English. Where they
do, this site shows a machine translation beneath the post, in
this typeface — the site's own, not theirs.
The post itself is never changed, moved or hidden: what is set in the
serif above is exactly what the person published, and it is what to
quote them on. A translation can be wrong in ways that matter,
especially about tone.
Only the post's own words are translated. A quoted post, a linked
article and a belief on korrents.com
are left in their original language.
