We got a major engine slopifying itself before GTA VI
I’m pretty sure 2027 will be hilarious for Unreal Engine with AI. And expensive.
With how much market share Unreal also has, it’ll probably cause some major shockwaves in the video game industry as well.
In the meantime, start learning the Godot engine. Which doesn’t accept AI code. [Godot]
Godot also released a new version yesterday, so there’s another reason to check it out
Forgot to mention this for a bit, but I watched the Backrooms movie in the cinema 4 days ago.
It is an incredible film and I never want to see it again, Jesus it got under my skin
I checked Wikipedia’s history, its been fucked since last year
J-R Conlin has left Mozilla after 15 years, and has some choice words for the company.
They’ve gone bankrupt once in '24 , I’d bet good money they’re gonna go bankrupt again.
I approve of this
Remember Crazy Taxi? Its back, infected with AI slop!
(I saw the massive wave of hype that game’s announcement unleashed, and its almost impressive how Sega wiped out every last bit of it with AI.)
Found a fun sneer at AI anthromoporphisation in the arXiv: If LLMs Have Human-Like Attributes, Then So Does Age of Empires II
Oops! All Claude
Before, the human was the weakest part of any cybersecurity system. AI changes this.
Martin Scorsese’s jumped on the AI train, seemingly believing the plagiarism machine can help with storyboarding.
Obligatory meme (yoinked off Discord’s GIF search, AI extruded itself, ironically enough):
Before AI, the user was the weakest part of any cybersecurity system. Now, that has completely changed.
Roko’s Basilisk and other such batshit rat shit was mainstreamed as part of inflating the AI bubble - I doubt this will be the last time something like this gets referenced.
edit: the in-game painting looks hella AI generated too.
Seems pretty fitting to an illustration made in reverence to Roko’s Bullshittery. I don’t notice any obvious signs of slop-machine generation - either I’m shit at spotting slop, or this was made by human hands.
At this rate, Adobe Flash is gonna come back into relevance by being one of the few things not slopified into uselessness
(it almost certainly won’t, but I find it oddly hard to rule out the possibility)
rsync
Huh, haven’t heard of that before, lemme go check its Wikipedia page and-
rsync (remote sync) is a utility for transferring and synchronizing files between a computer and a storage drive and across networked computers
Okay this sounds very fucking bad
I switched to DuckDuckGo like a goddamn hipster years ago, nice to know I dodged a fucking artillery shell
New(ish) Baldur Bjarnason - a fairly politically charged one at that, going into the US hegemony powering the current tech industry (and the AI bubble by extension), and how the Hormuz crisis is all-but guaranteed to topple the whole thing.
Honestly, a black comedy about the rats and/or the AI bubble would probably make bank. The years of sneers people have cooked up on them would provide plenty of material for the writers, and there’d be plenty of catharsis in seeing those responsible get ripped into for 2-ish hours straight.
