makehuman VS HandBrake

Human work is much more deterministic than AI as it encompasses a lot more constraints than what the task specified. If you take concept art creations, while the brief may be a few sentences, the artist knows to respect anatomy and perspective rules, as well as some common definitions (when the brief says ship, you know that it’s the ship concept approved last week). As an artist, I’ve used reference pictures, dolls, 3d renders and one of the most aspect these tools had was consistency. I don’t see Large Models be consistent without another models applying constraint to what they’re capable of producing, like rules defining correct anatomy and extracting data that defines a character. The fact is we do have tools like MakeHuman [0], Marvelous Designer [1], and others that let you generate ideas that are consistent in their flexibility.

I look at Copilot and it’s been the same for me. I’m either working on a huge codebase and most of the time, it means tweaking and refactoring, which is not something I trust a LLM with. Or it’s a greenfield project and I usually write only the necessary code for a task and boilerplate generation is not a thing for me. Coding for me is like sculpting and LLM-based solutions feel like trying to do with bricks attached to my feet. You can get something working if you’re patient enough, but it’s make more sense and it’s more enjoyable to just use your fingers.

I am trying to get makehuman (http://www.makehumancommunity.org/) to run on my manjaro linux system, but so far I have not been able to get the viewport to display the 3d model like it should do - it's just black, or shows weird graphics glitches.

Dunno but you could do something similar in MakeHuman

What games really need to start doing is have one base body with a slider to transition seamlessly from masculine to feminine proportions, with controls to achieve a wide variety of bodies. MakeHuman does this, and makes a plugin for blender, and I keep wishing AAA games would take a hint and stop using completely seperate base models for "male" and "female".

https://handbrake.fr/ its very easy to use.

nothing actually, i just mentioned it as an encoding frontend.

At this point, use https://handbrake.fr/ to transcode into a higher res MP4 and use as proxy footage,

Maybe you could try HandBrake.

The release itself[0] would have been a better link.
