According to #midjourneyV6 this is the Master Chief in the style of the Simpson’s. Getting some angry Ned Flanders vibes…

Hard to believe but as of today, it was 14 years ago that I joined XBOX! So many games made, so many GDC’s, and new technologies. I love game development- never boring, always changing.

To whoever at Microsoft Studios who owns the black tesla with the KITT light rig, hot damn. That was awesome. I pretty much started to hear the theme song to Knight Rider in my head the moment I saw you driving by.... #KITT

PSA: nVidia’s new RTX Video HDR feature works with xCloud via browser! Just make sure you have clarity boost disabled, and follow nVidia’s instructions! (Picture does not do it justice) #rtx #nvidia #xcloud

The 1st thing I want to do w/ #Sora when its available is to feed it old Apple II and C64 game footage and get it to remake them in a more modern style. And to take modern games and see how they might look in Apple II style- beyond just using #RetroDiffusion img2img. OpenAI

Had to test the new MidJourney character reference feature, gave it this pixel art image as a reference and got these results for a new and totally different prompt. Definitely impressed. #midjourney

Had a fun conversation with a coworker today about the Kinect and I cannot stop thinking about how much modern AI would have been amazing back then- we did awesome stuff, but just thinking about how much more we could have done if Kinect launched today.

The coffee maestro in MSFT Studio D does it again! Some Zebra’s got loose on I-90 over the weekend and Jayant did this design on my coffee this morning. The guy is a treasure.

I think I want this. Connect my eGPU to it for extra AI oomph and I'll have a nice little setup for training models, serving home gradio sites for various AI jobs.... 48 Tops of NPU goodness... All in a small footprint. Yum. asus.com/displays-deskt…
