  • It’s running slow because it’s running at such a low framerate. The speed and the framerate are tied. Old console games used to work that way, which was a problem because games would run at different speeds in different countries (PAL vs NTSC). This is a solved problem in modern games. Just separate the game logic from the display logic. But this AI can’t do that because there is nothing but the video.

    Add to that that the AI was probably trained on high framerate footage but is only capable of generating low framerate footage and you get (gestures wildly) this







  • There is another downside. The local and global feeds are potent discovery tools. But they only work if you group people with similar interests onto the same instance. Your proposal assumes a certain amount of homogeneity. If everyone is interested in the same content anyway then yes you can distribute it randomly. But all the people interested in Linux memes are already here. If we are to expand our reach we need to have instances catering to other interests.

    And it also doesn’t work with international communities. German speakers for example go to feddit.org, precisely because that’s where German content is going to be amplified via the local feed and therefore easier to discover (for people an that particular instance)
