As in, I would hazard a guess the discovery of the wheel wasn't "pure intelligence", it was humans accidentally viewing a rock roll down a hill and getting an idea.

If we give AI a "body", it will become as creative as humans are.

We just haven't let AI run wild yet. But its coming.

Now you look like a bit odd if you ask for directions since everyone has a smart phone now. So you have to go create artificial scenarios to socialize.

Anything that looks like intelligence will look like a prediction machine because the alternative is logic being hardcoded apriori.

The source of confusion is that unsigned is a terrible name. Unsigned does not mean non-negative. Its 100% complete valid to assign a negative value to an unsigned, it just fails silently.

If you want non-negative integers, then you should make a wrapper class that enforces non-negativity at compile and runtime.

Texturing still is subpar. But I've found that using Hunyuan for modeling+retopo+unwrap -> clean up in blender -> texture in substance painter is actually a pretty nice workflow for some stuff.

Suburbs/car-dependecy is a classic case of "worse is better". Its simpler to build and the worst-case suburban sprawl is tolerable, so it proliferates.
