And thus endeth this golden era of Capcom. Could smell it all over Onimusha already, if not earlier. But now RE Engine is specifically being streamlined so that abysmal intelligence LLMs can execute tasks in it more easily. Rank. www.destructoid.com/capcom-embra...

Capcom ends its string of Ws, embraces AI as 'essential' for its future games and projects
After many years of developing its proprietary engine and increasing its efficiency, Capcom is taking the easy route by embracing AI.

If you think an artist's style looks like AI but you can scroll back through their portfolio and see them doing the same work before 2020, congrats, you're not looking at an AI grifter. You're looking at one of the original victims whose entire style AI stole.

I know there is a hell of a lot going on right now. But not all of it is bad. Some is astonishingly good - like the results of this study from June. Cervical cancer is a terribly cruel thing. This might, at long last, be the beginning of the end of it. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...
BBC News headline "Young women now have 'close to zero' risk of cervical cancer death after HPV jab"

The kids are still mad for the sexiest scene in cinema. There will still be some young puritans out there saying 'Bookstore Girl' is TOO SEXY. I don't want anything too sexy on my screen!

Finally watching Alpha and 46 minutes in I'm both loving this and thinking about how many pieces action and spy fiction have setups and twists straight out of a soap opera. And how the difference in presentation can make people love or hate the respective resulting ridiculousness.. :D

That's a wrap on Star Wars Zero Company, quite the excellent game and thus, naturally, most of the developers were let go already within a month of release and great reviews. Can't make that shit up.

Walter Cronkite: After liberating execution camps… Germans (who cried) they didn’t know…were as as guilty as Nazis…because they applauded when Hitler shut down (media) and said, ‘We don’t need to know. We trust our government...’ It’s our duty to know.

Star Wars Zero Company is pretty good! Am also infinitely glad I got the game used for the equivalent of about 35 Euros, because in this house we sure as heck don't fund what's going on with EA.

If they were to release a collector's edition or merch for GTA VI, the top priority item should be the T-shirt Cal is wearing here. :D

Everyone’s worried about the “Terminator” AI doomsday. But the more immediate threat could look a lot more like The Big Short. . @edzitron.com explains why the AI boom’s real danger may be an economic one — and what happens if the money behind it starts to unravel.

There's a lesson here about solidarity. You don't have to support someone's tactics or even beliefs to show solidarity. In fact solidarity conditioned on complete agreement is not true solidarity at all.

Remember when Alberta authorized a 28 year old for Assisted Dying when all she had was autism and ADHD. This is a eugenics program, that they push onto anyone they deem undesirable.

This begs several questions: 1. Where is Microsoft’s capex going? 2. Why has it been saying it’s added a GW of capacity a quarter? 3. As one of NVIDIA’s largest customers: where are the GPUs Microsoft is buying going? Because it clearly isn’t into a data center.
