Correct me if I’m wrong, but it doesn’t seem like the interviewee was ever asked about tools like code completion. The article focuses almost exclusively on ‘generative AI’ and PocketPair’s attitude towards its usage in game development. I don’t think it’s fair to consider it a dodging of questions if said questions seemingly weren’t brought up to begin with.

Besides, I doubt non-devs even really know about/understand machine learning tools in game development aside from the standard AI slop machines. For them code completion probably seems more like a standard programming tool as opposed to something more akin to an LLM, especially since most people already know about things like autocorrect through their phones and the like which is pretty similar.

I imagine by “AI” they mean strictly LLMs from OpenAI and other related sources. It’s more or less a consequence of the term being used as a catch-all by marketing teams even if it’s misleading.

They’ve for sure used machine learning tools in their development process, I have no doubt about that. I mean, that’s literally what code completion is. That’s been a thing for much longer than LLMs though, and it’s really only a supplement to the actual intentions & efforts of the devs using it. Stuff like that is useless if you don’t have any game development expertise.

I have no doubt it is with the way the prices have been with memory and gas for a while now at this point. Not necessarily Valve’s fault, but it’s gonna suck ass regardless.

Regardless it’s in poor taste to immediately blame the masses when something so widespread doesn’t go well. I think history and current events has proven more than enough how little that works, if ever. People really aren’t capable of truly acting as part of a perfect whole.

That’s the thing, voters didn’t vote for a Liberal majority. Last year’s election gave the Liberals a minority. There’ve been multiple floor-crossers from the Conservatives post-election, and then they had the majority.

Ok Mr. Gates

The problem Stop Killing Games is targeting is the DRM for these games that require a server ran by the publisher to always be accessible when you play the game. Pirated or not, all you’ll be greeted with after said servers are shut off is at best a large majority of the game being inaccessible, and at worst a perpetual error screen.

I find it very strange that we hate cops so much only to immediately turn around and revere people who’ve served in the military.

They both serve the state, the only difference (and a relatively arbitrary one at that) is the police suppresses internally whereas the military suppresses externally. They’re both geared toward the exact same end of controlling the opposition.

You can say that “they’re just following orders” but I don’t think I should have to go into detail about the pitfalls of that argument.

Palantir Humanity is a global threat to humanity

FIFY

Again, that’s only from your (biased) viewpoint. I’m sure you or I can say that with relatively little consideration from our cushy positions in wealthy countries, but try and get, say, the average Sudanese citizen to agree with that. It’s really not gonna work.

Plus to agree with your sentiment is to say that capitalism is worth the suffering it causes. I’m gonna have to disagree with that on principle.

Only if you’re basing your assertion on inherently biased criteria. For many in the west it’s better sure, but what about the majority of people in impoverished countries, or less fortunate people in general? How about non-human species that have been losing their natural habitats to pollution and global warming inch by inch, or just human interference in general? Or even species that have been outright driven to extinction by human activity?

I’m not so sure any of that is worth it for a new smart phone every year with only marginally better features. And I hear the new hyped-up technology is pretty much the epitome of an infinite amount of monkeys on typewriters desperate to type up Shakespeare.

It’s closer to the opposite tbh. The Boys more often than not outright mimicked reality to make its commentary obvious as opposed to actually practicing good writing hygiene. It didn’t really have anything further or more unique to say than: “look, US politics and culture but… superhumans!!!”

If we’re going by how good each perp was at covering their tracks, Luigi’s still on top considering he’s still on trial. Abe’s assassin was basically immediately arrested and confessed right off the bat.

Alternative path: become an online grifter, make millions from being a degenerate, eventually get outed as a pedophile, convert to Christianity/Islam, profit!

He’s got chode energy for sure

This but for social media in general

I wish there was a way to filter out tankie-slop posts like this
