  • Well true it’s not gonna happen “very” soon. You’ll basically need source code for games that generalize this stuff, game engine code bases that can encompass various game styles. And presumably a lot of “data worker” work which translate existing games into design doc so it can be used for training.

    But most AAA games share very similar gameplay elements just with different art and music and characters and story, one or two new features. Much of the code base is like “player / camera controller” and then a lot of items and weapons and levels and encounters.

    So you don’t need to manage an entire colossal code base. But if you imagine just a selection of very strict genres, like first person shooter or realtime strategy game, this provides a rather restricted code base where most is art generation and that is definitely possible. Even MMORPGs like WoW.

    You might still need or want e.g. a concept artist that designs characters or supervises art styles. But it’s going to be possible for hobbyists to do the work of multi million dollar studios. With a little side of slop of course lol. No doubt “handmade” games still are potentially better but due to budget constraints have not often been and in this future scenario just won’t be commercially viable. It’s going to be patreon funded game designer crews. And bye bye fucking corporate games industry.




  • I mean anything for a ceasefire later, whatever conditions, just to break it later. Ukraine, US empire, EU, NATO, they would find some way to provoke or destabilize and then make a new plausible propaganda case for why Russia broke the peace again and continuing the war is only Russia’s fault. And people would eat it up. Deep strikes would continue. Russia would be stupid to not see that coming.

    So Russia is basically forced into settling this on the battlefield, slowly take more territory and only leave a failed and utterly destroyed remainder of Ukraine as a headache for Europe to deal with. I believe such an “ugly victory” is the only way this war will end now. Let Europe stew in their near totalitarian hysteria.






  • Afaik self driving delivery robots or robo-taxies is relatively distant from LLMs. Or maybe there will be breakthroughs by merging these two.

    But yeah the amount of labor you can actually save by using LLMs is quite small so far. It’ll only get better at that, but maybe there will be a technological wall. But maybe not.

    Most of the harm being done right now comes from the AI bubble and crazy high marketing budget that you have to understand is mostly aimed at businesses, presentations where they dazzle and hypnotize the C-suits with magic beans. So AI psychosis is real on both sides of the spectrum.

    In that sense fuckai can be seen as a useful distraction from actually talking about either useful regulation (because even that is seen as heresy), discussion about dangers (because LLMs aren’t really intelligent at all it’s heresy too) or capitalism as the root of all evil. And it’s useful to further divide and conquer and create new fault lines within the masses that need to be controlled.



  • Those are some very interesting ideas! I’d love to see this for city planning. Maybe China lol. The “Urban planning in communist states” had similar benefits but our current technology e.g. just smartphone apps could also help or optimize or solve a lot of these issues for free.

    But I don’t think these robots actually need to be expensive. I believe a local model on a smartphone could basically do this already and then you just have an RC car with a different gearing and a box. Like if a country had state owned facilities with regular open optimization challenges this would cost basically nothing.

    A lot of things should be rethought. And thanks to climate change and migration we will have to build a lot of cities.


  • I mean yes, but climate change is also a reality and presumably most deliveries are done via car. Or maybe scooter. And for scooter or bike this is also a dangerous job in traffic.

    This kid is the difference between idealism and reality.

    I would also say that it is ideology vs amorality, which is the prevailing system of belief currently in the west, and increasingly so. People do not believe that democracy works any more so you do not see any attempt at demands for regulations any more. That is not realism, that is fatalism.

    Liberalism / neoliberalism and the “international liberal order” can (I believe) be understood as a system that only allows capitalism to control government and society, and fundamentally no ideology. Ideology only serves as a facade or shield or distraction but there is no core.

    So the hysteria and willingness to abandon reality we see from fuckai (and other recent dividing frameworks) reflect that. Maybe it is even something that is deliberately pushed by the dark enlightenment around Peter Thiel, to erode belief in and functionality of democracy. But that is speculation.

    And even Musk understands that we’re going to need UBI the more automation and as demand plummets due to poverty.



  • “I know they’re taking the jobs of human delivery workers and so, I have been protesting them whenever I saw them by standing in front of them and preventing them from going forward,” Marvin said.

    I mean fuck. Do we want people working as delivery drones? Really? The other post in fuckai about this doesn’t even mention she’s been doing this for month which obscures why she’s been arrested.

    And climate change is real you know? A small robot takes little energy compared to a full sized car.

    Ideally delivery robots should be state owned and accountable to democratic processes. They are a valuable and useful innovation to solve logistic problems. A way to reshape how neighborhoods are build and planned and make them more energy efficient.

    This dogmatic opposition to anything AI is really becoming more and more irrational, less and less grounded in facts and rational arguments. AI needs to be regulated. Like China currently does AI regulations best, but we can’t even imagine things like that any more because people just accept neoliberalism as the new world order and screaming is the only thing left to do apparently instead of demanding regulations or nationalization of certain AI infrastructure. Maybe this is linked to some kind of anti-democracy propaganda campaign. Divide and conquer, and don’t even let talk about regulation enter the public discussion.

    supporting

    No

    EDIT: Just to clarify, this is a strawman. Anyone who ever uses AI is maligned and attacked and dehumanized for “supporting” evil AI companies. What I do support is Chinese open source / weight models that run on clean nuclear power. Because that is where most businesses get their tokens from today already, and it’s only going to rise.

    There is a willingness to betray your fellow man and every truth and every principle of a pluralistic society just to support “your tribe” here. The fuckai tribe. They preach hate against normal people. And ultimately they are no different from MAGA or climate deniers or antivaxx because they don’t just peddle in lies they insist on them and nothing you can tell them will change their minds. Close minded people preaching hate and stupidity based on some arbitrary dogma. More and more divisions and hate mongering are being invented every year. That is how the rich and powerful control society now.

    and before you know it, you confuse some loud people disliking your edgy opinions with you and your “facts” being oppressed

    I agree with your other points but you’re definitely wrong on this. Facts are definitely oppressed today. Objective, verifiable historical facts are “not allowed” to be mentioned, and it has cost people their job.

    And I do believe that is something that we’ve been trained to do now. Mention you just used AI with the wrong people and you’re out. A moral absolutism based on disinformation and refutable arguments. The “MAGAtization” of the left if you will. Or in case of AI it creates a deep moralistic divide with tech nerds.

    It could either be accidental (engagement is good for profit) or part of a strategy (divide and conquer). But as a society we’ve lost the ability to even talk about certain very important things without walking on eggshells.

    And yeah most of this is speculation.
