Is it not common knowledge that AI is not at a point yet where it works??
Why are people already using it to think for them?
Why the fuck are the military so determined to use it??

Ok the former one is less shocking, dumb people are dumb
But are the military not meant to be smart if not moral?

There's a broken cuneiform tablet from the Old Babylonian period, nearly 4,000 years ago, which preserves a tiny portion of a dialogue between two friends.

It feels a bit like the conversations I've been having for the past week, so I wanted to share it.

I knew golden needle was a bastard but could've sworn I didn't struggle with jokerless as much last time as I did this timeโ€ฆ
It was so brutal I stopped playing for weeks
picked it back up and finally cleared all challenges and felt a sigh of relief
There were some painfully close runs

could've sworn I was posting my progress with the mobile versionโ€ฆ
Maybe I was just thinking of the PC version
I was making quick progress, got 100% collection and moved onto the challenge decks and similarly blitz through those compared to my original PC attempt until I got to the last threeโ€ฆ

Kudos to the dev team for the name "Become"

"I was ok with languages" What fucking languages? You barely have comprehension of the English language let alone any other language
And you won't learn Spanish? The second most commonly spoken language in USA?

we're overdue on another indie boom, I just fear AI slop will make it harder than ever for good games to gain traction

Big budget games are (rarely) the brainchild of people wanting to create a genuinely great game
they're just calculated decisions based on how to get more money out of people

As is typical, I see plenty "gamers" shitting on the devs saying they deserve it for making a crap game
but it's not devs, it's suits
suits want devs to build souless crap that'll print money

So how many live services dying will it take before companies stop trying to force them because they're desperate for a money printing machine?

lol, so I saw that McDonald's CEO video...
Was that just a series of people at each stage not wanting to tell the CEO he can't sell shit?
Same as the Coldplay moment, I first was exposed to this from someone recreating it

Wild how Microsoft innovates
If you don't use cookies, then it's quite typical to need to sign in each time you open your browser
But Microsoft push boundaries by making you sign in multiple times a day

"Pre-Emptive"
No, you're just the aggressors as you've poorly disguised your intentions for ages...
Trump feigning caring about the Iranian civilians protesting for regime change was a pretty clear indicator that he was looking for excuses for justified military action

I continue to be fascinated by the phenomenon whereby an expert engages with any of the LLMs on their field of expertise and is instantly horrified by the wrong answers, and then goes on to use it for things they are not experts in as though it wonโ€™t be just as bad for those.

In my utopian vision of the future, instead of offloading all the pointless, annoying work tasks (like reports that none one will read and needlessly opaque forms) to robots, we restructure work and society so that the pointless tasks don't happen at all.

Lunar Trailblazer dying because the solar panels pointed in the opposite direction from the Sun takes me back to my University maths problems where I miss a negative and my result's flipped

What is the point in Windows task manager if you can't end a fucking task
Windows 11 peaks at being the absolute shittest thing Microsoft has churned out and forced on everyone
Such genuine animosity for the engineers who fucked this shit up & especially towards the clueless suits who pushed for it

disappointed there wasn't a massive flag, wonder if there was a restriction preventing it

Sooo, what's in the Boston water that hits so right for Zen?
Vitality looking so top rn
If they don't walk on waving that US flag then what are they even doing?

Such an intense series
NRG definitely deserved the win, KC had so many shots that they should've made

52 shots in a single #RLCS gameโ€ฆ
Holy shit
made up for how quick the first series was, adding a couple more games worth

The American #RLCS
crowd unable to work out pretty self explanatory system
They really are unaware of how they present themselves to the world

Like AI has demonstrated how awful it is so many times over at this point
As cringe as crypto was, at least it's shit impact touched very few not bought into it

The most impressive thing about generative AI is how it continues to innovate and surprise with ways to kill our nice things, rather than handle our shit things
So many invaluable open source projects are being inundated with AI slop, at an amount and rate that volunteers can't cope with
