I'm tired of pretending that Perfect Dark Zero isn't at least 50% really, really good

You know, I don't think Xbox gets enough props for its back compat magic on Xbox Series X.
Finished Gears of War: Reloaded, and booted up Gears of War 2 straight after. It looks like this. It came out in 2008.

I'm a writer. AI replacing copy writers or writing essays for students, etc. does not bother me. This was bound to happen. What does bother me -- keeps me up at night, in fact -- is how AI has given the em dash a bad name.

A timely reminder that LLMs cannot 'read' your prompts or their answers—and never will, by design.
That's not necessarily a bad thing... until you start distorting the scope of what they're actually designed to do. Like, for example, comparing them to PhD-level experts.
