It’s how they create archaeology for the next generation.

But that’s my point, not everyone agrees with that assessment.

The problem is there’s things like code completers, that predate AI, and no one ever had a problem with those even though presumably they were also taking work from other people. So how much AI can be used before AI becomes unacceptable. You can set the bar at zero, but then you start getting problems of defining what even constitutes AI.

Before we can have a conversation about whether or not AI should be used in game development or anything else we should first have a discussion about what it is. No one seems to want to have that discussion.

Yeah I know that’s why I’m asking

Sure you are, and that’s what the tag is for. I think the problem is everyone has a slightly different definition of what “used AI” means.

For example there are some indie games being developed now where the assets are human made but much of the code was AI written. Artists had an idea for a game but they didn’t know how to code so they got the AI to do that part. Historically the way this would have been dealt with would be that they would have simply developed the game in something simple, like game maker. AI just give them another option.

Now the question becomes should that be labeled as AI? Yes AI was used, but no one’s lost their job because of it, so is it quite the same thing?

I don’t think Valve makes the distinction, and that’s what a lot of people don’t like about the tag, it is ambiguous. Of course Tim here is just whining about the thing in general, and isn’t usefully contributing to the discussion at all, as per.

I think free range is a protected term in some jurisdictions.

It’s not even about privacy. Is basically complaining that they have to list the ingredients on the food packet, for most people this isn’t a problem, but since his business has a tendency to sprinkle thorium in everything, he’s acting a grieved.

Yeah that’s exactly the analogy to reach for.

The shareholders really should take this idiots phone off him. He’s doing them no favours at all.

It’s used to calculate firing solutions for ancient Roman cannons. The different sizes equate to the different round types.

Because it’s a choice between paying my mortgage and a gaming PC. It’s not really a hard choice. I’ve got a steam deck anyway and while it’s true that it’s got the graphical processing capacity of the gnats testicle it’s better than paying 40x the odd for some ram.

Let’s make the next game just micro transactions and take out the game part.

Do we clap?

I’m sorry but Bethesda and quality don’t belong in the same sentence unless there is another word in that as well. Such as “lack”

When I was a kid no one cared about any of this health stuff. I remember an advert for Nutella claiming it was good for you because it contained one picogram of calcium.

It has no effect on rankings it literally just shows a tag to the user. If a customers response to the presence of that tag is not to buy the product, doesn’t that represent some sort of cultural problem that should concern a CEO, rather than complaining about the presence of the feature?
