2. AI kinda ruined this style for me. The first thing I did when I saw it was start searching for AI incongruities which is sad.
Thank you.
I used AI to get it draw it. What worked is giving floor plan I already had and putting some labels on it - brown dining table here, fridge here, etc.
What didn't work was giving it bunch of photos and asking it to just figure it out. For things it did figure out - it was nice, but it made way too make mistakes.
The entire point of it was to put light switches and heaters on the map so I don't have to fiddle with a number of toggles in a table/list.
p.s. I wish I had huge eink display for home assistant dashboards. Some concepts I made and seen online are glorious.
You don't really need to be in the 1% to be a patron if you need some art.
I agree it just feels weird to spend on “software” for home improvement, but sometimes it may make a bigger difference than the hardware!
This is typically the kind of hacking project that is preposterously non-economically-viable for 99% of homelabbers, let alone regular folks. Now, for the first time ever, AI is making it actually palatable for everyone who wants it done to have it done... and certainly much cheaper too at an equivalent quality level.
the most popular phones in the US (iPhone pro max and pro) have had lidar cameras for the past 6 models...
It’s cool they hired an actual person but if I was so happy with their work to write-up a whole article about it, I’d be crediting them in a much more prominent way!
