I get the poisonous appeal of AI "companions", but in an age where every tech company under the sun is harvesting your data; you must have to do some pretty major mental gymnastics to convince yourself that no one is listening to you talk to your imaginary friend.

I thought the whole point of that meme was to spite Rowling?

That's not "creativity", that's "protecting your creation from talentless dipsh*ts that will ruin its legacy to generate ad revenue".

If I my understanding of the required software were any less, the game would have been a dice-based pen-and-paper experience.

Sorry: "Hard graft" is a colloquialism meaning "hard work".

Bullsh*t. This isn't what "creativity" looks like. It's what a grumpy bastard chasing perfection looks like. THAT is hard graft. "Creativity" is the fun bit where you're playing around with crazy concepts, free of the boundaries a finished product requires. It's pure joy.

So, AI tools/assistants that automatically agree with, flatter, or validate a user's ideas rather than challenge them in any way, are known as "Yes Machines". ..... and he wants to rebrand "ai" as "si"? It's funny because he would never, ever get why that's funny.

That I added pretty early on, cuz I would have been in the same boat. "Where did I leave that thing?" XD

This whole project was a LOT of fun. EVERYTHING was pure indulgence in nostalgia: the game, the "ad", the illustrated manual, it's all inspired by stuff that was around when I was a kid. I'm absolutely going to make another one! :D jollyjack.itch.io/padre-got-a-...

Panic-merchants are claiming indie games are "cooked" because they saw footage of an AI-generated Mario Kart knock-off. It's a knock-off. Just like all the AI generated images, music and text before it.

Has AI ever made any "advancement" in the creative space that makes it appear like anything more than an overly complicated, resource hungry photocopier?

Shopping for a new suitcase. When did those sh*tty 4 wheel things become the norm? They look like they'd fall apart the moment you tried to navigate one down a curb, never mind international travel!

Is it just "Artificial Intelligence" that gets the rebrand in the US? Is it going to be "Super Sweeteners" from now on? "Super Flavourings"? "Super.... Insemination" .... .... i don't want to play this game anymore.

The 80s and 90s were where the genres CAME FROM.

"Use of the word "artificial" makes intelligence fake, it makes it sound fake, and it is not fake, it's actually..... amazing." - Wordsmith Trump at the UN, regaling the delegates/hostages with his bulletproof reasoning on why "Artificial Intelligence" should be rebranded.

The modern gaming community is calling it "The Rise of the Indies". It's more of a "return". This is what it was like in the 80s and 90s: "Bedroom Coders" making weird and wonderful little games, with the most successful becoming the big names/companies of later decades.

"including one that reportedly showed the comedy duo satirising racism while in blackface" "reportedly"? The BBC takes "being PC" to the absurd. It won't even LOOK at its OWN content. The entire POINT of that sketch was to MOCK racist behaviour. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

BBC removes 11 Mitchell and Webb comedy sketches from iPlayer
The corporation said it had included "the ones that still work today and not the ones that don't."
