actual pet cat bluesky would be so wild like "i ripped the innards from my jingling nemesis at last and finally found rest, only for him to appear unscathed (in my favorite spot, mind you) when i awoke. life is but a Killing Game, friends. and i fear we are not the players"

I think Josh Sawyer tweeted something similar along these lines a week or so ago, and I find myself wondering how much of the "why is EVERY GAME using AI?!" problem boils down to "the investor class that determines which games get funding mandates AI usage."
Big part of why all these game studios are coming out with ridiculous statements of "oh yeah, we use generative AI, but not for anything important!" is because they know consumers hate AI but investors want to hear the studio is using AI, and they're trying to please both

Interesting thing going on with ICE:

They're basically just cops who haven't been trained properly in the arts of Deceiving the Public and using the jargon specific to Police Officers to make themselves seem legally sound.

People are shocked to see them doing what police officers do routinely;
The speed at which law enforcement un-persons you was such a shock to my system, they act like bandits.

One of the most insufferable things is when people go "uh excuse me ICE AREN'T cops," like no actually they are the quintessence of cops. They are pure concentrated cop, 100% by volume

I remember taking the mandatory engineering ethics class in college where we learned about how your job comes with serious responsibility; how software that handles medicine delivery can kill people if there are bugs or how the Hyatt Regency walkway collapse happened.

No one seemed to care.
Can't wait for the loosened up, non-perfect, but quickly shipped AI-enhanced updates to hit my banking and insurance services next year.

Im sure there will be no issues there at all.

It still blows me away that poor people get fined every day for tail lights or headlights being out, but fucking automated Waymo cars can run red lights with no driver with impunity. Just complete societal failure to hold engineers accountable for the violence they cause.

Jesus, can you hear me? Good, the comms are working. Now, you're gonna need to run if you want to evade those Roman soldiers. Hold down A to sprint. Go ahead and try it. ... Good work! You just might be the savior yet. Now pick up that AR-15 and let's do some target practice.

it's genuinely striking how these people will not only be completely, utterly morally bankrupt racists in public, but also expect everyone else to agree with them when they say this shit. uh yeah I would absolutely let an innocent man with a "mom" tattoo crash on my couch
I'd be delighted to have a hairstylist or a youth soccer coach visit for a night

feels quaint to even mention it at this point but the supreme court's total lack of interest in defending the lower court judges who routinely receive maga death threats and swatting attempts for ruling against trump really illustrates who utterly lawless the high court has become

saw someone say the next dem administration should learn from trump & simply enact their agenda without thought to norms or procedure, & i hate to break it to that person but the dems already do exactly what they want with power. they don't try to do things & fail, they try to do nothing & succeed

The AI hype cycle is even better than the blockchain or metaverse hype cycles because any functionality can just be rebranded as AI. Background erase in a photo editor? AI. Procgen tools for environ art based on copious pre-made assets? AI. Reactive NPC dialogue? That's an AI. BETTER INVEST NOW
