As rule, in any creative process, once you've signed off on a project, leave it alone! It may be flawed and imperfect in many ways, but if you've taken it to the point where you feel you can say "that's done, it's finished!" then that's where you should stop. Constantly refining various...

Ummm ... that's not (at all) how I'd see it. To my mind, the goal of "creativity" is to transform something ordinary (messy, worthless, broken ...) into something less ordinary. One might argue that a "true creative artist" would have no regard for the eventual value of the work created, but the...

😵‍💫 Jeeeez ! That's surely the embodiement of ADHD? I think the biggest hurdle faced by those who want to push the boundaries of visual technology is that the vast majority of poeple (i.e. potential customers) are already maxxed out with what's available, so no matter how great the development...

A technical question: have you considered how you (or the software) will handle different accents? Most good quality voice-to-text software that I'm familar with needs to be trained to recognise a single voice being "textified" ; automated "textifiers" - such as YouTube's subtitling and...

Bonsoir! :hi: Si jamais tu divagues sur la frontière Berry-Limousine, on a des histoires par ici !

Further to the above, and one of my favourite scenes from the whole Dr. Who collection, here's the legend in reverse, the (re)appearance in the present of Amy's not-so-imaginary friend from the past: For research purposes, if you haven't already done so, perhaps you could spare a few hours to...

:wait:

... or more likely burn him for being a witch. 🔥 You'll also have the problem of how any "magical" 21st Century technology can continue to work once its onboard power supply runs out. And that's assuming it's a fairly simple technology like a flashlight; a laptop usually needs a variety of...

Notwithstanding Mara's comment about details while I was writing ... :lol: You might want to delve a little deeper in that legal history to be sure. When the Normans (aka frenchified Romans) finally made their way across the Irish Sea, they needed the help of "interpreters" to reconcile their...

For our four-day-four-night festival, with about two dozen "departments" requiring fairly detailed scheduling over six weeks we use ... ... ... a basic spreadsheet. :shocked: The key to it is that our one production assistant has the God's eye view and the keys to the Pearly Gates. They...

When everything you know about the world was learnt by trawling the internet ... 🤓

Of everything you've written over the years, this is what stands out for me as the real obstacle to a change in direction: you have no exit strategy from your current situation. Unless and until you write yourself out of (that part of) the law firm equation, you'll never make any significant...

Greetings, Bulent ! :hi:

Hallo, Dersim ! Am parked up on the Western bank of the Rhein for most of the next month. :hi:

Ciao, Giacomo ! :hi:

Greetings :hi: And congratulations on your shiny new government ! :cool:

Jeeeez! 😵‍💫 I think we humans still have the upper creative hand (for another week, at least).

Is this as much due to the fact that we're told the video is a "lip synch" test, anyone watching it will be primed to give more attention to the lips? While I didn't have that same problem (and the lip synch is impressive, mostly - some of the micromovements associated with certain sounds are...

Well, you're going to have to tell me what you mean by "equivalent" - I suspect our frame of reference is going to be quite different. Besides, I don't make much effort to try to remember what software I was using (or aware of) twenty years ago. What I do know, though, is that that's the year...

On the contrary: it's because I've watched it develop in incremental steps over the course of forty years that I'm (a) not surprised that we've made yet another incremental step; and (b) extremely sceptical of the claims that whatever's promoted as the latest "groundbreaking" incremental step is...
