That’s totally fair, the company is obviously lying, excuse me “marketing”, to promote their product, that’s absolutely true.

Hey I didn’t say anywhere that corporations don’t lie to promote their product did I?

Oh absolutely you can apply machine learning to game strategy. But you can’t expect a generalized chatbot to do well at strategic decision making for a specific game.

The problem is though that this perpetuates the idea that ChatGPT is actually an AI.

I mean it may be possible but the complexity would be so many orders of magnitude greater. It’d be like learning chess by just memorizing all the moves great players made but without any context or understanding of the underlying strategy.

Prepare to be delighted. Full disclosure, my Atari isn’t hooked up and also I don’t have the Video Chess cart even if it was, so this was fetched from Google Images.

Did the author thinks ChatGPT is in fact an AGI? It’s a chatbot. Why would it be good at chess? It’s like saying an Atari 2600 running a dedicated chess program can beat Google Maps at chess.

Still have a big bag of 40pin IDE cables in my closet. Probably time to say goodbye one of these days.

We asked our kids how they would feel if they got a silly name like Pikachu. Snorlax said it would be awful but Bulbasaur didn’t see it as all that bad.

Yeah now we can industrially extract all the remaining water from the air as well as the ground.
- Comment on BlackRock is Suing UnitedHealth for Giving “Too Much Care” to Patients After the CEO was Murdered 4 weeks ago:
I doubt it in this case. He’s not holding onto any secrets that he might spill. Killing him is only to their advantage if it sends a message “don’t mess with us or you’ll die”. That works if he’s convicted and executed, that doesn’t work if it’s seen as “a company will just assassinate you”. They’d have to keep the assassination a secret, which would defeat the purpose.

It’s always loss
- Comment on I probably interact with people who are at the pinnacle of their chosen skill but I'd never know because that skill isn't something that generates fame. 4 weeks ago:
On top of that even the most skillful singers in the world are most likely not the most famous. Becoming famous is a skill in itself, separate from the ability you’re famous for.

As always the extreme right projects what it wants to do itself onto the so-called left.

No one in Israel (in power) wants a two state solution. Note that it’s zionist Israelis and not “Jews” in general that are to blame. But nice try anyway.
- Comment on LUPIN THE IIIRD THE MOVIE PV 5 weeks ago:
Love it. Always good to see an anime where the protagonist isn’t either an insane powerbeast chased by 20 women or a depressing sad sack inexplicably also chased by 20 women.

I dunno but I love it. Let your freak flag fly. Thinking everything is cringe, is cringe.

Yeah because working with Trump is what makes the company evil, not like, oh I don’t know, everything else they do.
- Comment on Epic reduce their cut to 0% for the first $1 million in revenue for devs on the Epic Games Store 1 month ago:
The tiers work in the opposite direction though, only huge titles will likely qualify for lower % takes while indies barely scraping by are getting hit for the full 30%.
Again this is only a minor point of criticism, I love valve in general. But man it would be so easy to add something like a “15% on the first $50.000 in sales” exception, wouldn’t cost Valve all that much and would help small indie teams immensely.
- Comment on Epic reduce their cut to 0% for the first $1 million in revenue for devs on the Epic Games Store 1 month ago:
Hey don’t mistake that comment for a defense of Epic. I am a fan of Steam in general (in so far as I can be regarding “license selling” companies.) I think Gabe did many great things for game distribution. I’m working on an indie game myself and if it ever gets to the point that I can release it, it will be on Steam no doubt. I do dread the day Gabe has to pass on the torch though.

Main problem: incredibly slow/unresponsive. Clicking things doesn’t give good visual feedback and can take forever for the underlying webpage to load/reload.
It’s designed as a webshop first and game library second (third, fourth?) Unintuitive UI, hard to search, hard to categorize, poor feedback on what’s being downloaded and why. Basically every quality of life feature from Steam is missing.
But to be fair it’s been a few years since I opened it. Might have improved a lot since then. I use Heroic these days. Also not amazing but at least it’s open source.

- Comment on Epic reduce their cut to 0% for the first $1 million in revenue for devs on the Epic Games Store 1 month ago:
Man it’s a shame the Epic store sucks so so bad. I’d love to give developers a bigger cut. Steam is amazing but taking a 30% cut is a bit insane.
Still, having to struggle with the Epic launcher… oof. GOG’s isn’t great either but it beats the hell out of Epic still.
- Comment on Cyber Knights: Flashpoint hits Overwhelmingly Positive on Steam with a big new update live 1 month ago:
Looks like a good concept but man that UI is so incredibly busy and overloaded. Also feels like stealth is just a precursor to killing all the guards rather than the goal of the game. Are there any games like this in a cyberpunk setting that are more “pure” stealth like Invisible Inc?

Hell I for one don’t care what you write on your own computer screen but let’s not pretend obsession with other people’s genders is unique to “liberals”. You guys made it such a giant deal that you’re happy to throw the constitution on a bonfire to fight it.
- Comment on Hundreds of smartphone apps are monitoring users through their microphones 1 month ago:
Just install an OS that allows per-app microphone permissions. I’m running LineageOS and I can tell it for example to only allow Whatsapp mic access when I actively open the app. Actually according to the article, the same can be done on plain Android too.
- Comment on Subnautica 2 teases new creatures and co-op among the coral 1 month ago:
I understand why they’re going that way but Subnautica is such a quintessential single player experience. I hope they leave that experience the main focus.
