Reposted by TromDr. Tessa Fisher @tessafisher.bsky.social · 04/06/2025I can't get over the AI 2027 thing. I reread it this morning, and realized that one of the underlying assumptions is that 'if we run an LLM on a big enough data cluster, it'll somehow develop goal-directed learning, metacognition, and independent innovation, instead of being autocorrect writ large" 57410

Reposted by Tromrax ‘levon honkers’ king @raxkingisdead.bsky.social · 17/03/2025the problem with a story, essay, etc written by LLM is that i lose interest as soon as you tell me that’s how it was made. i have yet to see one that’s ‘good’ but i don’t doubt the tech will soon be advanced enough to write ‘well.’ but i’d rather see what a person thinks and how they’d phrase it 912522200

Reposted by TromLiz England @lizardengland.bsky.social · 11/03/2025Even if you look at complex and emergent game systems, like procgen, you find players talking about the "system" as that thing they are trying to beat and/or collaborate with. That system is a designed thing. Gen AI also doesn't have an interesting system, there's nothing to outsmart, learn, etc. 634421
Reposted by TromLiz England @lizardengland.bsky.social · 11/03/2025but if you take either of those approaches - that players derive joy from communicating with the devs through play, whether it's beating their challenges or being led carefully through them - then it really highlights why a lot of gen AI in the game experience is just undesirable 354880
Reposted by TromAnna Holmes @annabookwriter.bsky.social · 03/03/2025At max, you can expect to infect 5-7 people with COVID. That’s considered pretty transmissible, which is why we (tried to) lock down about it. An infected person will give measles to 16-18 other people. It’s extremely virulent It’s long past time for you to wear a mask again. 162066732
