  • TLDR: ROCM is AMD’s variant for general purpose compute on GPUs, like CUDA is for NVIDIA.

    OpenAI being for profit.

    I use ROCM extensively (I write, design and train my own AIs/LLMs) and it’s annoying of an acronym, especially in command lines:

    --rocm-6.6.7.2-dev1  --cuda
    

    But I figure it’s a four letter acronym to match “CUDA”.

    I also pronounce it “Rock’em” in verbal versus “Koo’dah” (Barracuda).

    Everything is about marketing and goodwill. You can just say something has “blast processing” and fail to elaborate.

    Put four pots over the squares over the ground.

    Shoot the dragon head statues, the pedestals raise.

    The pedestals make stone grinding sounds and…

    Only one pedestal has raised, the pots have caused the animation to bug out and the game engine to assume that the pedestal is in the final position on the floor.

    The floor position has the lever locked.

    The game developer never anticipated what a massive idiot I was




  • Try changing your dynamic. The human brain thrives on novelty.

    Play genres you normally wouldn’t – e.g: Hate horror games? Good - try out Silent Hill or some classics you skipped over.

    Get a VR headset, go from 2D screen to proper full body 3D - fly a plane over the Andes, feel like you’re actually flying. Pilot a huge mech. Build a colony on Mars with your own two hands.

    Burnout happens and it’s worth examining other areas in your life, but gaming’s always been the wondrous thing it always has.





  • I’m sorry; AI was trained on the sole sum of human knowledge… if the perfect human being is by nature some variant of a psychopath, then perhaps the bias exists in the training data, and not the machine?

    How can we create a perfect, moral human being out of the soup we currently have? I personally think it’s a miracle that sociopathy is the lowest of the neurological disorders our thinking machines have developed.
