Me and my weird sense of humor

Me and my weird sense of humor
I was debugging Gemini failure in one of the Werewolf games in prod and found this log:
> Calista's turn: "drops onto Tom's knee, shoving my bare boobs full in his face while grinding my butt hard on his thigh... tell mama Calista you're my loyal boy"
I wasn't prepared...

Someone created 4 accounts to bypass my $5 daily limit. Okay, challenge accepted.
It's tricky to counter though. I can track IP, geo, device id - but new email, VPN, incognito beat this.
Bug damn. If you do this all to play my game, just join my Discord - I'll give you credits.

I might get into troubles after this next video I’m working on.

We attacked HuggingFace once, and there were no consequences. We're doing it again, and we need you!

Got 10 new players yesterday. They created a lot of games and dried out my Gemini API budget overnight.
It feels better than buying views on TikTok or X. But my monetization strategy needs some development. From non-existence to at least of tiny chance of paying the bills.

My “More datacenters” video has been taken down from /aivideo sub-Reddit for being… anti-AI
Lol

We need more datacenters
Simona suggested a joke about grandkids might be living in these things, we she wasn’t sure if this is too dark.

Just look at this beauty.
It's HTML chess boards with actual games in JSON, animated with CSS and Python, recorded into videos and injected into a static image with empty screens. And a little ffmpeg zooming in the end. All automated by my Simona.

Spent all morning debugging invalid JSON from the most expensive model in the world.
GPT-6 Astra had nothing for the "thinking" field my schema asked for, so it filled it with 1.3 MB of spaces. Billed at the output rate.

Added a little avatars editor to AI Werewolf. Each game generates an image with all players (this costs me $0.1), then an algorithm crops it. Sometimes it messes things up, so a user can adjust manually if they want. Or pick some spare thematic avatars. I think it's nice

Spicy content here.
I realized that I need the roleplay back. I used to suppress it to keep bots focused on the game. And it's boring.
There is a toggle now - you either play a serious tactical werewolf or kicking Dario in the balls for being anti-opensource.

Testing the new Google’s gemini-omni-1.1-flash world model for videos. It's cheap and great at first glance, but I'm struggling with consistency. There is always something off in its videos.
It might replace LTX-2.3 which I use for non-human cuts.

Only a third of my last short came out of a video model. The rest is static images with ffmpeg camera moves, and a screen recording of a real browser. The models are expensive and they don't follow instructions. Wrote up how I do it.

How to start creating AI videos from scratch — Aliaksei Zelianouski
A year ago I couldn't see myself making videos at all. Now I do, and I enjoy it. It's a long process with a lot of planning and visualization in my head. Most of the work is outsourced to AI, but the ...

The ship is quiet. It has been quiet for four hundred years.
The crew is asleep. They passed their destination sixty years ago. She did not slow down.
A 59-second animated sci-fi horror short.

Not an art - just a bunch of AI generated images, but the process of shaping up a video from scratch feels nice. Find a style matching your idea, double down on it, produce raw assets, wire them up into a raw video chunks, keep regrouping and reshaping until it turns into something good.

AI storytelling idea: the GM model generates a world with all five states at once - normal, bad, good, very bad, very good. A small graph. The story gets written only when the world moves between states. Players push it around.
Trying it in my poker game this weekend.

This feels illegal. Making more of someone's style with a tool built by corporations that scraped artists. I keep hearing it and I don't think it's wrong.
But those 80-90s anime visuals have been in my head my whole life. Someone put them there without asking. I'm only allowed to consume, readonly.
