A proposal of the future of MDL through AI

AlfatogodeQFBere VIP

I made an exercise in AI which I share here. It could be the future among many others of this site.

I asked for:

I want seven circles with the other 6 connected in directions x, y and z through a line. Every circle must have a photo, the centered one the poster of the drama gotten in mydramalist.com and the other six circles the photo or the six main or almost main, must be six, protagonists with  dynamic appearance of their name and the character in the format XXXX as yyyy, the centered circle must have the dynamic appearance of the name of the drama and the qualification it has on mydramalist.com/ In the bottom must appear the info and thank to the consulted site and in the upper right part must appear a square where I can write the name of the drama I want to be depicted in such a form.

With this final response:

My vote would be to NOT add AI to this site.

no thanks ,  AI  can be a useful tool when used right but i don't think Everything needs AI which is the current trend with things ,  honestly the amount that its pushed on people has been pretty gross for a multitude of reasons and i'd prefer Not to have it.

If I'm understanding your project correctly, that's just a flashier (and more resource intensive) way of depicting information which is already on every title's main page.

What would this add to the site? Unless you're jpegging the final results into a single image and chucking it into the title's photos, it's the kind of thing which is hard to optimise for both app and browser. If it's small enough to appear on a phone, it will be unreadable via browsers without that sort of zoom in capability.

I know I'm old school, but ring/spoke graphics like this aren't at all difficult to do via image manipulation software, and the kind of things fans still do for fun, so why automate it?

This sort of "AI" is changing rapidly. Integrating it into the platform would be a poor use of dev time and the servers. And once they get users and businesses dependent on it, the "AI" providers are going to start charging eye-watering amounts of money too, we truly do not want MDL to be saddled with that.

Better to do this sort of thing off site and upload your results wherever makes you happy.

Thanks for the comments and the time you invested in reviewing my comment.
I am not trying to define the future of MDL as I established when I said this is one of the futures. I am just trying to show what a MDL developer/content controller could do with the AI. This particular project was not transcendent as for telling change MDL to be like this, it was just an example of the power of the AI to reorganise and control info. As a matter of fact, I was thinking in setting it as a game in the forums, I just trashed the idea because it seemed so water consuming. And yes, you are right, I could have shared it in some other place, but I did not think in any because it is connected to MDL which I really love. It could be only here or in no other place. I am such a huge MDL fan!

Honestly, I don't understand what im reading at all. It's too many technical wording.

The "power of AI" here is a misnomer. All it adds is a way for those who can't/won't code or learn image manipulation software to get a machine to do it for them. That's a very different service than what MDL offers. This is why I said it's better done off-site and the results shared wherever you want. 

I'm old school so IMO best is to learn how to use free image manipulation software like GIMP because then you have skills no one can take away or charge you to use. And why automate something for fandom? It's about putting your heart into it after all and finding another way to spend time with the characters and story.

Reorganising info on the site is better done through coding. If the devs wanted to add a fancier layout for the graphics as in your example, it wouldn't need AI. Just change the positions the various graphics are called into on the page.

I'd also argue against fancier layouts as standard because rows and columns of information are easy for our brains to process quickly, but that's another matter.
