What did he mean by this?
>>109418846John Carmack’s posts usually make more sense when you think of how you go to a talk and there’s always that one guy who tries asking an overly complicated question, and you immediately know he’s not doing it to get an answer at all, he just needs the room to know he’s smart. John’s twitter posts are like that.
>>109418846He is le sad
>>109418846What ai bullshit is he selling?
>>109418846He's gone insane.
I guess he's saying that shader tech is obviated by frames generated by AI. You don't need to know how to write shaders for water if you can just generate the frame / image data using another approach.idk ask him what he meant not me
>>109418846>248K viewsTwitter really is like a zoo. You go there to see the monkeys throw their shit.But the question is, why do you bring that shit here? Post it on some website like reddit which makes its money by stealing other peoples shit.
>>109418846Man, this board is fucking retarded. Nothing he is saying is crazy or hard to understand. What the fuck is wrong with you all?
>>109418846I'll admit it's a crying shame how he took the LLM pill and started barking garbage like this. He probably has money invested on that scam.
Is this a subtle endorsement of DLSS 5?
>>109421044it's a bit retarded to run generative AI just to render water in a video game
>>109420997those metrics are inflated to the point of being meaningless. Between the same person counting multiple times, bots, etc. it doesn't actually tell you much about how many people actually viewed it and neither does it tell you how many actually read it or cared.

is there even a single boomer that doesn't eventually go out of touch? asking completely unironically btw
>>109421044Use case for vacuous pontificating?
>>109418846yeah let's waste trillions of dollar on hardware and TWh of energy to render water and shit because using rendering squares and triangles in a discrete space in a mWh-range device is totally not a solved issue...what a fucking moron holy fuck, I'll never understand his reputation, doom engine was not special and he failed miserably at 3d with quake engine that was mostly made by uni professors and randies whose names did not make it to history wall of fame...
>>109418846he grew demented, nothing he says makes sense anymore
How did Romero turn out to be a chill guy, while Carmack developed a raging boner for AI after quitting Meta?
He's saying nobodies going to write low level code anymore, just say "gpt make a shader that looks like this"
>>109421080>don't shit here, leave the shit there>the way they measure shit isn't real
>>109421250No, I don't think so. I think after you have kids and they get a bit older you have made so many personal sacrifices along the way that eventually you sacrifice your dignity as well.
>>109422135Thanks for recapping that huge reply chain. It would have been difficult to figure out otherwise.
>>109422110Haven't they always been polar opposites? The interview he did for the Sigil release revealed quite a bit. Carmack has absolutely no personal sense of nostalgia.
>>109418846
>>109418858I upvote that.john is retarded.people say, you don't want to meet your heroes.it the case of john, you don't want to read quate engine's code.
>>109418846when dementia kick in
>>109418846bro wants to go back
He is out of touch.
>>109421044Who said it was hard to understand or crazy?He's just being retarded. I don't want my game to be generated by an AI like he does.
>>109421044His tweet is a bunch of wank and you're slurping it up.Homo.
When your single, top tier talent is personally obliterated even carmack catches a feel. He’s saying he’s a sign painter after the printer was invented or a horse trainer watching automobiles. He’s realizing the art is dying and it was never art anyway. At his age it’s going to hit heard because he already peaked.
>>109425597he could be dropping hot new engines by prompting AI though
>>109421044reddit political ideology slop has infested 4chan
>>109425597I'm sure that anybody currently working in the field has had a similar feeling at one point. Technology is always changing.
>>109418846holy shit my generation is aging like pooped cheese
>>109425597He’s not the horse trainer, he’s the horse, and so are all of (You).
>>109421250anon boomer might be cringe opportunist about events but out of touch is not usual
>>109418846dumb to rely on ai to infer how to imitate real lighting from the dataset vs teaching it john carmacks knowledge imo
>>109418846AI slop is better than you at putting lipstick on a pig
Does this guy have proven experience rendering? I'm not being funny. Is that what his previous jobs were? Ai does not negate simulation, especially of water. It can make a gobo, but anyone can.
