  I am not sure using machine learning to help evolving video game creatures figure out how to interact with their virtual environment is at the same level of slop as LLM or image generation. I think that’s actually a pretty cool implementation of the technology.

    Yeah just sounds like Miyazaki reviewed a game idea before drinking his morning coffee. I don’t see any issues here.

  This is the most click-thirsty headline I’ve read this year so far. It isn’t clickbait cuz is not false, but it feels… wrong.

    Why do you say that? I thought that it was an interesting story. Miyazaki’s comments have cultural significance imho.

      I just think it’s wrong to place more emphasis on that potentially traumatic episode in that man’s life than on what he is doing. As if the most important thing were that he was the guy Miyazaki told to his face that his work was an insult to humanity itself.

  Tech bros simply have no human soul

  That explains most of everything about them

    I love technology, but I couldn’t fathom making it my whole identity. I don’t understand how anyone could do it without feeling dead inside because that shit, by definition, is cold AF and absolutely has no heart.

      I think it’s mostly addiction and if you could just physically throw them outside forever banned from it they’d relearn how to be a human being again and could go make art and culture once more

    But they have brains. That’s better.

  Thanks to this article, I've put ANLIFE on my ignore list, as AI-driven games don't interest me. That headline is horrible, but, it could be parsed after thinking about it. IGN needs to proofread their headlines before publishing. I do agree with Hayao, AI/LLMs are an insult to life, and creativity given the current push to steal the works of artists and spit out slop. Robbing people of the joy of creation, which would make life truly hollow.

  I had to read this headline once. Then twice. Then a third time, really slowly, to actually parse its meaning. After doing that, I was fed up with the article already so didn’t read it.

    Imo it’s not that hard to understand.

    There’s a company that created some technology that Hayao Miyazaki hates, and that company is going to release a game.

    It’s not that hard.

      I will be the first to admit that I am a dumb dumb.
