[@dannywoods17]

I loved Jordan's confused face and we entered the sim inception part of the episode.

As a software developer who really wants AI to help with programming I can tell you we are still quite a few years away from AI being able to actually program any meaningfully large programs. Like it can definitely help with smaller scripts or stuff like ai scripting where it can mostly just pulls it from the web and change key words. However, most companies either program at such a large scale there is just to much data for an AI to parce and effectively code beyond the most basic code that probably won't work because code is so varied and dynamic in companies. And for web most companies are going to use development tools that are designed to help things stay uniform and consistent, again something AI can do but you really begin pushing into companies having to train and dedicate their own servers and most aren't going to spend that kind of money because it's not effective enough and you just have to pay as much money on employees anyways to maintain the AI and operate it as if you didn't have it.

[@sky0kast0]

I quite agree but the thing about AI is it works and it works and it works while we are sleeping it's learning and while we're sleeping it might as well be watching KZbin videos or reading all the books in the library of Alexandria because we have given so much stuff on the internet and it probably knows what's worth researching and what doesn't but it's still probably going to research every single darn thing, because there's not a downtime no having to reason through things it's just adding the syntax into a dictionary.

[@sky0kast0]

The moment I'm afraid for us as a human community is if Google Assistant could add details like commas and periods and stuff like that.

[@esaedvik]

As someone familiar with Linux, but not a desktop Linux master, CoPilot has been very helpful with diagnosing issues and searching for ways to make it do things I want, how I want. Seems there's so much Linux content out there, that it can actually find correct ways of doing things etc. It's so damn handy. Got three rigs running Linux now with no real issues. Just swapped my gaming rig over too. I would like to use Claude for some programming and electronics stuff too, but not yet looked into it.

[@Coayer]

@@sky0kast0the llms can already do that though 🤨 But yeah I agree with og comment that it’s not useful in big scale software development yet, you need to modify it to be in a uniform code style with the rest of the code base and it still makes mistakes

[@ac.creations]

You would just need to build your infrastructure from the ground up with ai. So many large corporations are working off a pile a ducttape and Elmer's that just barely functions anyway.

[@jacobstauff7153]

Praise be 🙏 the return of the cast has been amazing

[@Keil2590]

Sam, that was 100% a good take on Star Wars. Fantasy/Sci-fi/Fiction should be just that. It should be an escape...another reason why video games are so popular.

[@bobzor]

unless that game is concord

[@JohnUserAccount]

Sam trying to get to the bottom of Destiny's schizophrenic break by researching Dr. Egon Cholakinlan. I can't wait to hear the creepypastas of future AI-powered disinformation cults.

[@WeyounSix]

Most people don't realize the challenge of Haiku is coming up with the poem off the cuff. Traditionally you would say what came to your mind instantly, it's like ancient japanese rap battles lmfao

[@Dracomancer273]

Mankind invents rap over and over in so many different cultures

[@WeyounSix]

@@Dracomancer273 Makes sense. Language and writing is our most important invention of all time

[@stickyblicky11]

you made me like haikus now Words sparked interest A comment opened my eyes Haikus bloom within

[@YayaFeiLong]

@@stickyblicky11 that's a nice haiku I wish I could do better but sadly I can't

[@DarthBiomech]

IIRC ther's also this thing that _just_ conforming to the rhythm is not enough, your haiku also needs to have a deep meaning too.

[@MachoMelon]

I really thought the whole Sim-game thing was a bit till I looked it up! That discussion had me laughing. I always look forward to the future tech talks also. Great episode

[@davidpym8220]

Thank you esteemed Dr. Cholakian for bringing attention to these issues!

[@arturosalas12]

30:02 note from someone from Costa Rica, the Volcano he is talking about is Volcan Arenal (you can google it) it has 3 craters, one of them is now a lake (half a mile away from the main crater) the name is Laguna Botos, it is too acid so it is not recommended to swim in it, and the main crater is actually active (the national park has been closed a few times during the year for precautions) There is no legal way to go to the Laguna Botos, but people still go there.

[@jamesalxl3636]

Claude is absolutely amazing shi changed my life fr

[@VELI-Productions]

Dude the Bomb in Kid Pix 🤯🤯🤯🤯 Nothing better honestly

[@relaxedsack1263]

Ive always thought it was interesting, that there was a period of human evolution where we didnt have language (had complex communication but not full language). And at some point the language process starts and we unlock a whole new way to think. Running LLM's in our brains.

[@einsteinjet]

I've played a lot of SimCopter. It's a buggy mess with terrible graphics, but I love it. And Kid Pix was my go-to drawing program as a kid.

[@macvirii]

Importing your simcity city in simcopter was so impressive, so cool!

[@adventuresinAI1982]

As I'm sitting here watching this I'm working on a Blender plugin (currently has 24 scripts in it) I've been working on for the last couple weeks using Claude... I am NOT a coder. I'm doing this entirely through prompts, but as a side effect of using AI to make blender plugins and mods for me over the last year I've started to understand coding logic much better, and I can now prompt wit a sort of confidence I will be able to achieve my intentions. I've also been building a game in godot using AI to code it, Also I've made some Unity plugins.

[@supafun33]

You guys should make a roller coaster tycoon in real life video where parts of the tracks get deleted randomly, and the coasters go flying across the park

[@MrWoundedalien]

The movie "Love" by the band Angels and Airwaves reverences the Grand Canyon from the perspective of an explorer like was mentioned in the Pod here, was super low budget, has great VFX of being in space, and has good behind the scenes stuff out there. Highly recommend for Corridor reacts!

[@hannesvz82]

SimAnt was the best Maxis game, I love it. It still holds up to this day. Teaches you stuff about ants too.

[@evanfuture]

I have a D&D note-taking app called Lore Frog and I'm starting to build a few AI features into it. Specifically the ability to take a transcript of a session and extract important lore items (npcs, locations, etc) and session summary. It's so powerful! And it unlocks even more things!

[@AethonRose]

Had Kid Pix on all the 6 computers in my elementary school and we would only be able to play it on rainy days. We had an absolute blast on that little piece of software. I had no clue what this was called, and genuinely thought it couldve been a made up memory.

[@NimbusAbi]

funny to hear this talk as a programmer and to imagine how many more people start coding thanks to LLMs. Kinda cool.

[@PeiwenTanbassoon821]

Wish to see Jake on the podcast again soon.

[@AceLeach]

I would 10000% buy a 90s-tech inspired "the sims" shirt.

[@DanielJohnFPV]

Streets of Sim City was INCREDIBLE. I wonder if that's available anywhere?

[@syno3608]

Sam seems like bill burr near the end 😂

[@thepermman]

Evel Knievel attempted to jump the Snake River Canyon. The details are crazy

[@ConnorHammond]

Jordan needs to join Son of a Dungeon S03: The Post-Production Cull! He would be so funny.

[@drradzig81]

Egon Cholokian sends his regards.

[@Enderlad]

what was the ipad app that lets you run stable diffusion local?

[@johnnycher]

SimTower is one of the most goat'd games of all time. I've heard Niko talk about it before (I think in Node's SimCity video). I wanna play SimTower right fukkin NOW!!!

[@pathologicaldoubt]

Sam should pitch his kitchen sink unwashed dish identification shaming program to workout gyms for clients that don’t rack their weights and publicly shames them. Could make a killing selling that gimmick

[@D3Z_animations]

The Post-Code world is a scenario I don't see to be probable in the near future...Sure, Claude and ChatGPT can do many things that novel coders will find impressive, but once you dig down to niche cases, the facade falls apart a bit. Highly specific knowledge will not be available to these models and if you try to give context via dev documentation, oftentimes once the problem requires actual logic and reasoning instead of just coding knowledge to complete, they are of little use. Don't want to downplay how incredibly valuable AI is for people that just need basic things and aren't experienced in coding, but especially lower level coding (e.g. audio engines in mobile development) are too complicated for AI to grasp. Maybe ChatGPT 5.0 will completely prove me wrong, but I have had some bad experiences with AI being useful for more elaborate projects. This is also due to context window limitations.

[@CharlesVanNoland]

Why don't videos play on corridordigital with the Opera browser?

[@psykology9299]

Im so glad the boys from CC view AI as an opportunity to improve our own creativity, because it can do the menial stuff functionally infinitely faster than you can, and it _is_ smarter than you as long as youre smart enough use it properly, Theyre one of the few media creators out there that is like "fuck yea check what ai can do"

[@overdigitize]

24:15 Did you jump the Grand Canyon, or the Crack Canyon?

[@briefmarke3747]

Nice Vod i Watched a x-times the speed

[@TK_Brainslug]

does anybody know what happened to Jake? Great and fun episode btw

[@paulpetzar7401]

AI code generation might be the end of code language evolution.

[@ssjenforcer191191191]

Can I use AI to write me code for C4D to do liquid simulations natively? Like holy crap, Maxon, can we at least get a built-in Hot4D deformer??

[@dystopiannoise6782]

Osc lights? -> Touchdesigner

[@davidcapuzzo]

commenting for the algorithm

[@GoldenPickaxe]

Sam what the heck is ESSC please explain.

[@andymarsala4998]

Wouldn't it make more sense to just delete the old stuff you aren't using in the new Unreal project and just rename it? Then no transferring 10gb?

[@jasoncross2645]

What is “wh4qe? “ I started seeing this after I searched the thing Sam talked about the weird ai videos

[@KeirBriscoe]

The Chief is 702 meters (2300 ft)

[@EmonYasinprodhan]

Waiting for rock peper crossblaed episode 3

[@andrewmcbride88]

Can we get Niko in focus. lol. Everything but him is in focus on his cam.

[@randomgaming6808]

53:56 did sam just say don't make star wars ethnic and female? 😂 Im honestly very confused by that rant.

[@TheARStory]

@Disney listen to Corridor xD

[@willywallner4453]

This ep is gonna age like milk and I cant wait

[@PixelsVerwisselaar]

Live podcast but we not live 😂

[@kubburdigital]

i can get you guys some lave

[@Gen-XJohnny]

I'm not going to sugarcoat it, but in 5 years, a 7-year-old with a good GPU will take your job.

[@SteveBiegun]

Photoshop? Nah. Kid Pix Studio.

[@theeddytor3490]

i am not going to waste your time nor will i waste my time, but Ai is the reason i am able to make 18 apps/websites in a month. which is 12 times faster than usual. yes, i use to create apps/webapps around 18 in a year now i can do that in 1 month... now i can earn 10 times more and have 2 month off each year...

[@ringofkaren]

Funny how they complain about Star Wars, but they are literally the reason why it sucks. The are LA.

[@Makabert.Abylon]

AI is inevitable. Perhaps our doom at some point even if it’s only indirect.

[@NicCrimson]

Bro since humans existed we were out own doom.

[@jabbedia]

You're right AI is inevitable, and AI as we imagined it from movies and other media, is super underwhelming compared to what we imagined in our heads, just like Y2K, 2012, ghosts, cryptids. The hypetrain is currently filled with techbros writing article headlines to make AI seem more impressive than what it really is: A terrible search engine, a mid coder and a decent at best writer and conversationalist. Our AI's peaked a looong time ago, and they will keep enshittifying from here on out

[@siediousswift8088]

It’s all upside, Ai is our friend. Ai is here to help. Ai won’t have non believers rounded up. Ai is fair and just. 😳

[@rightjoycon8452]

AI is just a man-made technology to make our lives easier/more efficient, not a supervillain. We currently have nothing close to a conscious, self-thinking, critically reasoning, human-level artificial intelligence.

[@mf--]

Doubt the corporations see it that way.

[@Luzarioth]

All hail the Basilisk !

[@stevenchilders272]

The average person sees AI as nothing more than a search engine that can chat. In other words it's a joke. Keep it for chat rooms if you like that sorta thing freaks

[@Gnaritas42]

More Star Wars dunking please.
