The new york times continues to have low standards

"shall we ask an expert?"

"Nah lets just make some shit up"

wait this isn't onion?

no :(

I have no doubt this is what the CEOs think and that they will try, but fat chance lmao

And the authors name was Claude Anthropic.

I predicted a year or two ago that at some point calculators will be referred to as AI.

We're getting ever closer...

Ti needs to start marketing themselves as the Grandfather of Ai then.
- TI-89 Unobtanium Sparkle Emoji Edition, featuring a revolutionary 68k core with a fat chunk of matmul units grafted on

Nuance doesn't put food on the table in the third yacht.

Oh they have a nuance budget but they used it all up this year justifying Israeli war crimes

Oh god, it only gets worse the further down the article you go.

ethics experts remain focused on questions of how prepared the industry is for sentient characters [emphasis mine]

😐

I hate it when a website demands that my password contain at least two sentient characters.
When an AI character dies, what are the moral implications?
- Oh, look, they made another Torment Nexus, but this time the one from Westworld.
- That's when the AII character is spawned.
- Artificial.
wow I hope these experts live at least another 50 years to see their ideas in application

Yeah but will a ghost from pac-man tell me it loves me and get me to divorce my wife???*

*yes, actually. Pinky is moving in next month

The bastard. The absolute bastard.
Pinky is a disloyal slut. It should have been just the two of us.
This is how I fucking find out!?!? (⁠ノ⁠｀⁠Д⁠´⁠)⁠ノ⁠彡⁠┻⁠━⁠┻
- Don't pull that bullshit. Pinky has always been extremely clear with all their partners that they're polyamorous. If that's not for you, then that's fair enough, but don't blame Pinky for your jealousy.

I'm sceptical about AI programming Pacman, but it's fairly obvious that the New York Times is leaning into AI journalism ..

Not that long ago the algorithms that controlled the enemies in video was called AI, that's what they trying to mislead with.
- I've been calling it enemy behaviour since the first time I programmed one like 15 years ago. AI was never the right word for how game npcs and enemies work but it stuck anyway 😞
- And labeled as “CPU” in games
- I'm sad that game AI is a foreign concept now :(.
I mean sure if you call updating path finding algorithms AI be my guest... I would call it maths.

It's always such a red flag in news articles when they mention vague "experts" but don't explain who they are. The Guardian is so bad for it, even though they're the most tolerable of the mainstream British options. A lot of the age verification stuff was a vague "experts say this will help" but if you dig deeper the experts end up being someone who's went from working as an MP to being appointed to some directorship of a charity, and not someone with technical skills that could explain the cybersecurity issues, easy circumventing via VPN etc.

Use the AI to replace project managers, scrum Masters, and 99% of the management. Keep the talent. If you work at a video game development company and you can't actively contribute to the game, seems like AI could do your job and you can go pull yourself up by your bootstraps find different work.

It’s a cheaper way to make games, but it is going to cost you 5,000 times more to run a game.

They're doing pay later in games. xD

I like how the article evolves from demo video game to apocalypse.

*1970s

Honestly a more accurate comparison to how LLMs work than what we usually hear, ie: "God".

Well at least they are NOT denying and or enabling another genocide...
