Forget the lottery. "ChatGPT, how do I create an AI Startup?"

[–] [email protected] 2 points 5 days ago (2 children)

Amazon is not a startup.

Of course not. My point was that these wealthier-than-god goobers just throw money at anything with the term "AI" attached with abandon, and that seems like a better road to relative wealth than playing the lottery.

Step 1. Be rich or know rich people

Step 2. Convince rich people to give you more money

Step 3. Repeat Step 2

Maybe some do. Maybe some dont.

This is probably a long shot, but you wouldn’t happen to be the same FaceDeer who does the cool luanti mods?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 4 days ago (1 children)

Oh, neat. Yeah, that's me. :) Been a couple of years since I've picked up the modding pen, but I still remember those days fondly. Just got really busy with life for a while and fell out of the habit.

Awesome, what a coincidence! I still run dfcaverns on my mcl-based server to this day, I thought the name seemed familiar 😁 my stepchild loves taking dwarven syrup baths!

But sorry for jumping in suddenly like this, just thought I’d ask and share my appreciation. You’ve brought a dash of joy to our lives, and I thought we don’t get to tell that enough to all the amazing creators out there

Thanks! DFCaverns was kind of my "baby", and the one I keep thinking I should get back into modding to continue developing. I can't promise anything, of course, but this is of course fun and encouraging to hear. :) Making DFCaverns Mineclone-compatible was quite a chore back in the day, glad to hear it's still working!
