you can tell it's a magic assault rifle because even though it's clearly firing it's not ejecting any brass. i'm supposing that it's caseless (in that the ammunition's propellant is its container and is consumed as spell components for accelerating the payload)

[–] [email protected] 10 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Nah its his first show and the action hasn't cycled yet. But that safety lever is sus.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 11 months ago

So I am going to have to go with the magic rifle hypothesis. It looks like we are seeing the primary flash( the bullet has left the gun). This would mean that the gas action of the AK-47 would already be cycling. Therefore the only reasonable explanation is, magic rifle.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 11 months ago

It's not like he conjured up a real gun. Of course it uses magic bullets, which would not need to have a shell ejected.

People were complaining about the selector and lack of brass so I made you this.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 11 months ago

Glorious. Saved.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 11 months ago (1 children)

You shall not pass, mother fucker.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 11 months ago

Try to pass again. Try to pass again! And I dare you, I double dare you motherfucker! Try to pass one more time.

Wow that AK looks very accurate, ai art is coming along.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 11 months ago

As long as something has a clear and unique name, AI can do a pretty good job. When something doesn't have a 1:1 name->shape association it can however still get pretty bonkers, e.g. something generic like "PC joystick" always ends up like this, which is a wild mix of gear shifters, gamepads, arcade sticks, HOTAS and flight sticks.

What's that in the bottom right corner? Are those fighter jets that are inverted relative to each other?

[–] [email protected] 7 points 11 months ago

It's a Battlestar Galactica (2003) Cylon Baystar (I think that's what it's called) from the looks of it. It makes no sense, like the rest of this!

[–] [email protected] 3 points 11 months ago

Ahh I see your admiring my new invention: the air to air vehicle launcher. The DOD said that it couldn't be done, shouldn't be done but who's laughing now?

[–] [email protected] 5 points 11 months ago

This is the ideal Wizard. You may not like it, but this is what peak spellcasting looks like.

Santa’s done taking your shit.

When it's time for Tarkov with the boys but you have D&D later.

My only weakness

[–] [email protected] 3 points 11 months ago (1 children)

This is just Mustrum Ridcully

[–] [email protected] 1 points 11 months ago (1 children)

I had to look that up. Damn, I should really read Discworld.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 11 months ago

Do it. All of the wizards in Discworld are hilarious in their own way.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 11 months ago

argh... bullets, my weakness

[–] [email protected] 2 points 11 months ago* (last edited 11 months ago)

I got you an easy to share meme format. Because reasons, your handle is credited on the bottom in the least visible font.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 11 months ago

I love this

[–] [email protected] 2 points 11 months ago (1 children)

A shame that AI apps wipe signatures and watermarks. Would be cool to know who actually created the images used to cobble this together.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 11 months ago* (last edited 11 months ago) (1 children)

Each image in the training set contributes only about a single byte to the AI model. Meaning there are no "source" images in any meaningful way.

Edit: A minute of fiddling with DALLE-3 I got this (and a dozen similar ones). Did I stole from OP? Did we steal from the same source? Or is a prompt like:

"cool sky wizard with a long lush white beard with sunglasses and a Gandalf hat shooting an ak-47 in front of a galaxy cloud scifi backdrop, fog, clouds, magical, stylized digital painting, heroic posing, god rays, forshortening, roto zoom, wind blowing through his hair, brass flying out of the gun"

Simply enough to describe this kind of image reasonably closely?

[–] [email protected] -1 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Sure Jan.

Doesn't change the fact that these apps are trained on stolen data, and soon, when they're sued into oblivion, they'll be forced to credit artists in a meaningful way.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 11 months ago

When artists can't even figure out what was stolen they really have no leg to stand on. Complete cluelessness of how any of this works doesn't help either.

And beside these kinds of arguments are just complete hypocrite bullshit to begin with. Human artists use references all the time. If the law decides that that's illegal, they'll be in even deeper trouble than they already are.

Also the only one that would profit from these lawsuits would be Adobe, Shutterstock and all the other mega-corp content hoarders out there. You'll be stuck with AI image generation all the same, but instead of it being free and available to everybody, you'd be paying a hefty subscription fee to them.

Either way, AI image generation is the way forward. The genie is out of the bottle. Get used to it

I bet the glasses got added by the AI looking at photos of counter strike

[–] [email protected] 2 points 11 months ago

Also needs a wand of scattershot.

"I CAST HEADSHOT, MORTALS" used to be my name in TF2 around Halloween!
