I remember people doing that! I never did it myself (way too grindy for me), but it’s pretty crazy the game let you do it

Because they have ai controlled party members (and have since the beginning), it’s actually completely playable solo to this day.

You might be surprised how many people still play though.

Guild wars 1. I don’t play it often but every once in a while I get the itch. It’s honestly still really compelling.

Ai companies: ai will only get better!

SEO companies: hold my beer

I’ve heard this before and I honestly find it so irritating to read that I avoid wikis that do it. I’m not saying that’s rational, but it’s a real thing.

If you’re going to enforce a tense, make it present (but honestly don’t enforce a tense, it’s very awkward to read).

Simple to say, not so simple to do. I’d love to honestly.

And not the first time they’ve tried to slam something and actually made it look great instead.

I’d say it has to be satire, but these days you just never know, do you?

Nah we’re trying to get away from it, too.

I’m not enough of an expert to explain it better, but I remember reading about a guy who came on board with google, and took over search. He had an initiative to keep people on google longer. That’s my memory of it at least.

I think that’s totally possible, but I also think it’s equally likely that people become better and better at recognizing it. I remember when I was a kid what now looks like terrible CGI in movies was quite believable. People are really good at recognizing patterns, and especially for any kids growing up with AI they’re going to get a lot of exposure to it and likely become very good at spotting it. For all anyone knows it may just become inbred too if they can’t find a way to weed out AI from the training.

I’m not saying the hype the ai industry is pushing about only improving from here couldn’t happen, but it’s hardly a foregone conclusion from what I’ve seen so far.

Maybe someday 🧐

Do you just know that from seeing it on the midjourney feed, or are you able to judge the model just from looking at it? 😮

Looks like an AI gen at a quick inspection. Someone correct me if I’m wrong.

In the case of google they purposely made it worse so that people spent more time on their site rather than other sites. This means they see more ads from google as opposed to ads on another website. They’ve just doubled down on this with AI summaries, too. Now they just blatantly take content from websites so you don’t have to go to the website that made it at all.

I guess it’s not surprising that this is also a google thing, but gmail’s. No matter what I type in it shows me my entire inbox practically. It’s so fuzzy it’s completely useless.

That’s really interesting. Where I live having staff is exclusively for the very rich. No way an average person could afford it.

Best we can do is put another one somewhere else

Absolutely, and I’m about ready to start identifying as that over American 🫠.

I usually think of BC being part of it, too, cause we’re so similar culturally, and we hang out on each other’s side of the made up invisible line all the time.

One can dream!

Washingtonian here, I’ve been saying this should happen for like 8 years now lmao

The marriage isn’t working. Let it go.
