I mean, they clearly need a graphics designer...

    Obviously they not only laid off the wrong people, but kept the wrong people.

    I don't think there was ever any doubt about that.

    Imagine... a bright near future, where all games on GamePass are 100% AI created from a single prompt by the CEO. Imagine the shareholder value!

    I love writing code on the back of my monitor

    Umm, it looks the output is listed on the back of the monitor unless I am mistaken? Not only crappy but no one even proof read for errors. Sounds like a place you want to run from not work at.

    You guys don’t create your graphics with code and the monitor facing away from you?

    Xbox graphics is hiring Xbox.

    Looks like they already found their new hire!

    Is it just me, but I feel like I’ve seen this kinda cutesy AI cartoon style a lot in the last few weeks. Has it been around longer, and I just noticed it? It’s definitely one of those things that once you see you can’t unsee it.

    I think many of them are since chatgpt introduced the "Studio Ghibli" style earlier this year. They are usually these wierd mixes between anime and western cartoon styles, with a warm color tone for some reason

    AI tends to eat it's own, and others, shit. That's why you'll often see images like this that look similar to others. This is just what bing image creator is pumping out because it's literally gorging on its own waste.

    It's more like it's tyranny of the majority, where some popular style or VFX or meme or dominates the landscape. Figet spinners, Stanley tumblers, bean mouth animation, Vaporwave, that time Terminator 2 came out and everybody was showing off liquid metal VFX like it was out of style, the same thing with VCR screen fuzz on videos now, etc. I think Tiktok has made this problem infinitely worse, since all it takes is some random video to get insanely popular, and suddenly people are consuming some other shitty product, or eating cleaning products, or doing something else fatally stupid.

    And yes, it's incredibly easy to download some Ghibli art style. Or any art style, really.

    To everyone commenting about her using the beach of the monitor. She just has one of those super cool transparent monitors all the superheroes use.

    A laptop with a screen on both sides would have its niche.

    Shuting it would be like a tablet.

    You could do something while a person across watches.

    If you could rotate the screen you could swivel the screen to swap between two physical screens. I prefer two monitors over an ultra wide or trying to digitally swap between two screens. Rotating screen would have the problem of not being able to see both at once.

    However, if you made the screen on the back hinge forward. You could flip the screen towards you and have a second physical monitor.

    Sounds expensive and not really needed. But it wouldn't be a bad design

    Why do you think they're hiring people for the graphics department?

  • source
  • [–] 17 points 1 year ago (1 child)

    Doesn't have a graphic designer

    Can't do graphic design

    Has to hire a graphic designer before the graphic designer can graphic design

    Seems pretty logical to me

    How do they do this? Xbox is a big ass company that pays super well. Like if you don't have a graphic designer, at least buy a stock image or out source it? I'm sure you could do that with company money? These people earn over 100k a year for being this stupid?

    Oh I get it, "cringe-worthy" because the text is on the wrong side of the screen. Took me a minute to even notice.
