At first I honestly thought that this was an April Fools joke, I cannot fucking believe that this is real.

In May 2024, the previous government authorised £15 million over three years for auto-contouring. NHS trusts started installing these systems assuming the funding was secured.

There’s a shortage of radiotherapists. They say the AI systems are just letting them keep up with the workload. Radiotherapy UK says cutting auto-contouring will add 500,000 patient-days to waiting lists.

I am completely speechless.

Look at source.

Then doesn’t that kind of highlight the struggles that non-artistic game designers have faced? Potentially great game design overlooked because of poor art?

So can you see how AI art, which may not be the best but is certainly better than someone without artistic talent, might open doors that were previously closed?

An important aspect for making a game great is how all the pieces come together (from sound design to graphics to even mechanics) to form a cohesive whole. If someone was to use AI slop for an obvious aspect then how can I trust that they would have put any love and care into other aspects of the game? Especially when there are so many amazing games from small studios and independent game designers that don’t need to rely on AI slop.

No, but it does empower solo indie creators to do something beyond that. Like a dude who’s a solo programmer can now make a reasonably okay looking game without dipping into “programmer art”.

That is the joke, Sylveon is maliciously (or maybe blissfully, based on the other comics) unaware of the problem.

What part are you confused about?

Today’s tell is the phrase “vegetative electron microscopy” — an OCR artifact from scanning a paper with “vegetative” in the first column and “electron microscopy” next to it in the second column and reading it as a single phrase. … But it keeps showing up. “Vegetative electron microscopy” is present in about 20 papers on Google Scholar, including one in an Elsevier journal.

Sounds like the LLMs are already eating themselves.

“We only want other people to have to deal with our slop.”

I wish.
