As far as I understand blockchain, that is the system working as intended. Some nodes choose to run Ethereum Classic and some choose to run Ethereum. Isn't that the whole point? Decentralisation?

If such a system were possible, it seems like it would be far better at consistency and realism, since it could be fine tuned and hand crafted to best represent the desired world. It could be used to make interactive experiences, games, perhaps even feature films!

Alas.

I noticed several inconsistencies in things that stayed in frame. See the wall on the bridge in the Van Gogh example as they walk past it to see the other side.

I must be out of the loop, you skimmed over this. A Mac with a touchscreen??

I like to factory reset my devices every couple of years, it really gives them a new lease on life. My M1 Pro feels as smooth and fast as the day I got it.

Just the first two shots alone are full of horrible, stilted and morphing animation, no consistency between shots, no particular art style at all.

This is not a creative work or art in any form I recognise.

I grew up programming and being obsessed with computers too, though in a very different world. I started working full time as a programmer this year and I haven't written a line of code. I just set the agent going and read reminiscent posts on HN like this about how great things used to be.

I feel like most of what I loved about programming has disappeared just as I truly began.

These were a rite of passage here in Australia for any kid who showed an interest in maths or computers.

> Imagine asking a high-school math teacher to compute i^i. Almost none will be able to.

Mine could. And of those who couldn't they would have leveraged the technology available to them (Google) to find the answer with me, and would be able to make it make sense to me. This is an example of technology bettering my education.
