your CG knowledge is as a software engineer or as an artist?
kinda both but more the art side. I’m into stuff like procedural modeling, materials and shaders, so there’s a lot of math and logic involved but it’s all in service of making art, I don’t really like programming for programming’s sake. I mess around with node graphs a lot which is programming but I haven’t actually written code in a while
You can apply them to machine learning, for example. Like I get that AI is a grift but it is what is currently The Hot Thing so the thing to do might be to contribute to some open source projects.
oh i missed the part where you said you dont want to get into tech. nevermind.
yeah idk much about the machine learning stuff anyway, it wasn’t really a thing yet when I got my CS degree. I had considered learning it years ago, before all the current hype around it but never did.
I honestly think there’s some genuinely worthwhile applications for AI in the field of computer graphics and video production etc. but the tech world is such a fuck, I don’t want to be constantly having to look for a new job due to the tenuous nature of startup culture
