This seems like uncharitable interpretation of the story.

The OP was kind enough to share this story and give us a glimpse into the project and window of time and I think we should be supportive of that.

In regards to Autodesk - I'm not sure a corporation would even send a letter these days, let alone one written in the positive spirit this one is.

Finally, the OP and Gibson met and buried the hatchet so to speak.

Great work OP.

This is super helpful for visual learners and for starting to onboard one's mind into a new domain.

Excited to see where you take this.

Might be interesting to have options for converting Wikipedia pages or topic searches down the line.

Thank you. This is a pretty cool feature that is just scratching the surface of a deep need, so keep at it.

Another perspective where this exact feature would be useful is in security review.

For example - there are many static security analyzers that look for patterns, and they're useful when you break a clearly predefined rule that is well known.

However, there are situations that static tools miss, but a highlight tool like this could help bring a reviewer's eyes to a high risk "area". I.e. scrutinize this code more because it deals with user input information and there is the chance of SQL injection here, etc.

I think that would be very useful as well.

Looks pretty neat, and certainly addresses a missing element in the current AI workflow.

Question: What happens to our data - i.e. the code and context sent to your service?

Great stuff! You're missing a few bass drum notes in "When the levee breaks"

Is there a link to the contract somewhere?

The security section is good to see. Thanks for that!

I've used LLM's in this capacity, and it's awesome. It quickly becomes a crutch.

Last year, I built a DM for myself using the OpenAI api and an elevenLabs voice generator. I asked it set my character in Baldur's Gate, so it could pull upon the huge amount of DnD source material it had been trained on.

A few takeaways:

1. An LLM based DM can give the player essentially infinite richness and description on anything they ask for.

2. There is difficulty in setting the rules for the LLM to follow that match the DnD rulebook. But this is possible to solve for. Also, I found the LLM to be too pliable as a DM. I kept getting my way, or getting my hand held through scenarios. Maybe this is a feature?

3. My conversation quickly began to approach the context window for the LLM and some RAG engineering is very necessary to keep the LLM informed about the key parts of your history.

4. Most importantly, I found that I most enjoy the human connection that I get through DnD and an LLM with a voice doesn't really satisfy that.

Can someone familiar with South Korean politics give us some context for what is happening here?

Blender has the famed Donut Tutorial, which is a blast if you're even slightly interested in learning about it.

Does Unreal have something similar?

I think a cascading series of negative economic effects from less consumerism, leading to societally destabilizing conditions is a concern.
