@@JacksonVoet "novice indie devs who decided to make a game for fun" This isn't really true. They've said on record that they have no passion for what they make and they only chase trends that are already popular. They also didn't make Palworld on a whim. They have a boss that's giving orders, so they're not really indie either. About as indie as games like Dave the Diver or Grow Up. And they're not novices either. They're novices to the game engine they're working with, but not game design in general. The game is just janky and "novice-like" because they have no guidance or standards to be held to. Palworld was intentionally minmaxed for minimum effort and maximum profit.

Investors LOVE the idea of AI, and that's who Furukawa is talking to here. So it's interesting how Furukawa is basically saying "No" to ai, but using language intended for an audience that probably WANTS Nintendo to pursue generative AI
@willwunsche6940Ай бұрын
All they said no to is generative ai. Nintendo has used normal ai for decades which is normal and mostly fine One bad case they (edit: probably) used ai upscaling for the low effort Mario 3D All Stars port on the Mario 64 UI instead of bothering to redraw it so it would look better. But that's more a problem with that port being super low effort, ai upscaling is perfectly fine in some situations

As a student studying AI and machine learning, I really appreciate Nintendo acknowledging the difference between the broader concept of artificial intelligence and generative AI, which is what most people think of now when you say AI. The broader field of AI is so cool and can be applied to so many fields, and it bums me out that so many people now think the entire field is just with stealing from artists. Good to see Nintendo acknowledging the nuance, and also certainly doesn’t hurt that they’re also against using other people’s work with generative AI.

The only reason people care about generative AI being mass plagiarism is because it SUCKS If the AI was actually good, and made exactly what you wanted, exactly how you wanted it, every time, like full blown mind blowing 2 hour long movies and art pieces, exactly to YOUR specifications, and you can't tell it was made by an AI vs humans. If it was able to completely avoid copyright entirely, like a human could, then, what's the problem? Why does it matter that it was trained on all other art that exists? It doesn't matter if it's "plagiarism" if everyone has it, why not use it if it works? Anyone making whatever they want however they want it. I believe far, far, less people would be clamoring to uselessly scream "PLAGIARISM" then, when it would probably be closer to plagiarism than ever to be honest. You really think that AI currently can replace any of those artists that it look at the art of? Not really at all... Well, either way, right now, AI sucks too much for it to even matter

If they don't Nintendo takes all the power from them due to their excess. Nintendo has been checking the bullshit in this industry for 40 years & hardly anybody thanks them for it. Remember Jack Thompson, the moral crusader from the decade of the 2000s? If he got his way, a lot of things you see in videogaming would have been banned & you would have the clueless government involved ruining everything on artistic expression. But there Nintendo was quietly with its DS & Wii having their parental warnings on the startup screens & actually telling gamers to go outside & touch grass. What gaming company DOES that?! Hahaha! Nintendo like always has a healthy sense of social responsibility & they offset Jack Thompson's concerns. He can't call all of videogaming a Grand Theft Auto moral decayer with Nintendo around. So eventually he faded away. Nintendo quietly cleaned up the image for videogames. No, I disagree with you. Fanboy AWAY! Nintendo protects the entire videogame medium for the future. When Apple & Google turn everything into a Freemium wasteland, there's Nintendo to rehabilitate gaming. When PC power worship starts destroying countless developers causing a modern-day crash, there's Nintendo doing things the RIGHT way & setting the example for the surviving devs to follow. When Sony & Microsoft fool gamers into worrying about unnecessary things, there's Nintendo to remind everyone that THE GAME IS THE THING. The game & the way we play is all that matters. So long as Nintendo's here, we'll be able to pass down these works of art to future generations. We'll show them the importance of physical media. We'll show them the importance of positive messages. We'll show them the value in a safe gaming space free from predators & predatory practices. Gambling & Gaming are cousins if not siblings. Gambling is Gaming with a Predatory Nature intact. What we call Gaming is Clean Gaming free from the Predatory Nature & focused on Fun & Entertainment. The Gambling types will take over the business if someone doesn't uphold Clean Gaming.

Dude Nintendo sounds like an awesome company to work for. As I've heard from Moon Channel, Nintendo of Japan actually recognize gay marriage irrespective of local laws. It's not nationally recognized, only some prefectures (equivalent to states or provinces) have the systems in place to allow it, but Nintendo employees in gay partnerships (legally recognized or not) get the same company benefits as straight partnerships. It's cool as hell for Japan, I gotta say

@johnlucas1543Ай бұрын
+desmonddruhling Yeah I saw that too. I think it was "valfrey_" whose name is Megan, a VGM composer. An artist like her has definitely come to appreciate a company who stands by its artists. Nintendo has been about Artists FIRST since Hiroshi Yamauchi set the terms decades ago. Let the Creatives create. THEN you can count the money that comes from their Creations. That's why Nintendo keeps those short-sighted shareholders on a leash so well. They say what they have to say in executive-speak while protecting that core ethos of Artists over Beancounters.

Even completely ignoring ethics and the worth of art as a concept, relying on AI is EXTREMELY legally shaky. If laws against AI usage for voice acting, art, etc. are made widespread in the USA, EU, Japan, etc. on the basis of copyright or impersonation or whatever it may be, then the companies that are downsizing to rely on AI are going to be in hot water.

Nintendo is clearly the most moral big video game company. You can be upset at their taking down of ROMs, but most of the ones they target are already on NSO, and it's hard to argue that full uploads of games currently on sale is fair. They only went after yuzu after they were AWFUL with their patreon, they looked the other way for like 6 years. Hard to rationally stay angry at them compared to the boom/bust hire/firing of companies like MSFT, or the corporate slop that Sony and others produce these days. They've gotten infinitely better with YT and social media over the course of this generation too.

I would say Valve is more moral than Nintendo if it wasn't for them somewhat allowing child gambling in CSGO from 3rd party external websites by not keeping a close enough eye on it for a few years Valve does a lot of overlooked things morally better than Nintendo like repairability, consumer friendlyness. But Nintendo has gotten better in recent years, they don't use as much proprietary stuff anymore, etc.. But there's still some pretty bad stuff Nintendo does that people don't really talk about

Im not sure I want to refer to any companys actions as 'moral', nintendo (and valve) included. They do what they think is best for the company, and for some that arent completely blinded by shortsighted greed, things that benefit their customers and employees also benefit them in the longterm

@@profl0g1c38 Sennheiser could be considered "moral" as a big company in that they cared so much about durability and the quality of their headphones that their headphone devision semi went out of business. They refused to chase cheap trends or reduce the quality or durability of their ridiculously good headphones which last like 20 years. Ended up getting bought out by some hearing aid company Companies like Costco or maybe employee run companies where the profits are divided among the employees are typically allowed to be less bad too. A company like Valve gets to act better because they have no shareholders to report too and a weird corporate structure where everyone sort of just works on what they want as long as it gets results

AI is GOOD for those who have a need for for something no human can do, like Photo restoration or image upscaling, But the scariest point of argument happens to be that it's literally everywhere, Doing everything! Want music? AI it, Need Art, AI it, Need a description? AI it, You can make a KZbin video without even needing some imagination... (Take uploading straight music for example). AI should be a tool, not the entire solution to literally EVERYTHING.

I’m an art teacher and I talk about generative AI in my classes. My argument against the people who say, “That’s what all art is, just mashing up things you’ve seen, exactly what AI does.” The thing they miss, is that the AI will do it the same way all the time. I ask for a blue bird, I get a blue bird and it almost always looks the same. I could paint 100 blue birds and as hard as I tried to make them uniform, each one would be subtly different, because I am always changing and growing and learning. Every day, even minute I’m different, and that’s the beauty of art, that it’s about that moment of your life, that can never be recreated. AI just does what you tell it to do. Tell 25 5 year olds to draw a blue bird. Every single one will be different.

@johnlucas1543Ай бұрын
+minecrafter Japanese Collectivism has a lot to do with Nintendo Culture. They have a strong safety net in Japan & want everybody contributing to the national cause. That's why their laws protect employees from random firings & layoffs unlike America. And Nintendo takes it one step further by thinking of Quality of Life beyond mere Employee Loyalty. That's why they have fazed out a lot of the crunch & burnout that goes on in Japanese work ethos. So you get the best of both worlds: Protected Employees & Pleasant Work Standards. You'll never see disgusting CEO pay over the regular worker in Nintendo like Kotick in Activision. They are very Japanese in that the Collective is more important than the Individual. They believe in investing back into the people of the company before indulging in displays of wealth. Before Hiroshi Yamauchi left the Board of Directors to give Satoru Iwata full reign, he decided to forego his bonuses & stock options preferring that they go back into Nintendo for investment. Satoru Iwata's now-famous practice of slashing his & other high execs' pay during the 3DS/Wii U era to protect the viability of Nintendo's staff is just another example of this mentality. And it's not just Japanese law making them do it. It is the company's ethos that its people are the most important thing. That's why so many people stay employed with Nintendo for so long & that's why they have that uncanny braintrust.
