**The Dark Side of Innovation: James Cameron's Concerns about Generative AI**

51+ min ago (161+ words) What is Generative AI? The Concerns behind Cameron's Statement Furthermore, generative AI also raises concerns about data ownership and control. As machines learn from vast amounts of data, there is a risk of sensitive information being compromised or misused. This highlights the need for robust regulations and safeguards to protect individuals' rights and prevent potential misuse of this technology. The Future of Generative AI While Cameron's concerns are valid, it's essential to acknowledge the potential benefits of generative AI. This technology has the potential to accelerate innovation, improve efficiency, and enhance decision-making in various industries. However, it's crucial to address the concerns surrounding job displacement, data ownership, and control.

I don't usually post much here but here's something I've been thinking about lately: I recently rebuilt this set of progress buttons as a practice project exploring how motion can communicate state change. Each button uses the same dark green fill but expresses progression differently: one flows horizontally, another condenses as it fills, and the third uses 3D perspective for a more dimensional feel. The 3D version feels right for longer processes " think document submissions or multi-step forms. The flatter styles suit quick, single-click actions. I originally found the concept on Codrops and rebuilt it using GSAP for smoother, more controlled motion. But this project reminded me of something bigger: Motion Isn't Decoration " It's a Design Decision The more I work with tools like Webflow and study the effect of motion across digital experiences,…...

So I Wrote My Own Compiler, SDK, and Node Package To Revive A Minecraft Mod

9+ hour, 58+ min ago (1664+ words) This is a post mortem of the "Minecraft Visual Novel Framework mod" a mod that puts a visual novel into minecraft. This was originally written one year ago, original here: Post Mortem Originally Written at Nov 10, 2024 Anyway, you're probably here from the Mod Page wondering why the hell would a mod requires an SDK. So, ready for a Post-Mortem Rant from an Unhinged Maniac??? How hard can it be right? I thought the hard part would be the GUI. It's, well, it's certainly custom and not really supported by Minecraft. You know the fun part about the Mob Talker Mod? Users can create their own script. You know, the script, like Renpy's .rpy file. Give it away Andr So you know what that means for me? That's right, I have to make a F-ing DSL That Interops With Java Anyway,…...

echo3D Now Integrates with Autodesk 3ds Max

14+ hour, 32+ min ago (358+ words) We are thrilled to announce that echo3D now has a plugin for Autodesk 3ds Max. This integration allows 3D designers and teams at large organizations to stream 3D assets directly from the 3ds Max interface into the echo3D DAM, completely eliminating the friction of manual exports, uploads, and file juggling. The core of this integration is efficiency. Traditionally, moving a model from a design environment to a content delivery network involved a tedious cycle of exporting, optimizing, re-uploading, and versioning. With the new echo3D plugin, that workflow is history. You can now: Push directly to the cloud: Upload and sync your 3ds Max models to your echo3D collection with a single click. Manage without leaving the editor: Search, tag, and organize your cloud-based asset library right inside 3ds Max. Automatic Optimization: As assets stream to echo3D, they are automatically processed and optimized for real-time delivery to mobile, web, and AR/VR…...
