Really telling that they don't fund pro-ai people to make legitimizing art (yet to be seen). They just want to buy legitimacy off artists, and you WILL lose what they gain from you.

implemented a grid-based acceleration structure for the spectral pathtracer (to replace SDF scene intersection), which allows for huge explicit primitive counts, runtime interactive user edits, and runs >10x faster

007: First Light is really really good. So much fun and the writing/dialogue is top notch 👌🏼🤌🏼 @007game.ioi.dk

One of the weirder things I made for Keeper was a faux fractal generator in substance designer. These were used as alphas for sculpting and some VFX. #gameart

Even if you are barely a member of the triple-comma club you could donate $10,000 a day forever without denting your wealth. And yet most of these parasites never do it. Think of the endorphin rushes they are missing out on because... I'm not even sure why.
