I feel like a lot of stuff happens in the inefficiency of that communication and losing that probably isn't great

[DiscussingFilm @DiscussingFilm]

Martin Scorsese has joined a generative AI startup as a partner and advisor.

He adds that he has used AI during pre-production to help with storyboarding — “with this tool, I can share what I’m visualizing more clearly & efficiently to my creative team — the production designer, art designer and cinematographer.”

this really is where it all went wrong isn't it. wwe died the minute that music hit and we've been watching it from hell ever since

[Ace Humphreys 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿🦢 @Ace109610]

WWE has never recovered from this

[Shane @Luminoth82]

steam doesn't require disclosure of AI tool use so either they're lying or they flagged themselves for no reason?

[Eurogamer @eurogamer]

Crystal Dynamics has responded to its use of AI in Tomb Raider: Legacy of Atlantis, telling Eurogamer "we leverage AI tools to help our teams iterate on ideas faster and more efficiently, while ensuring that all finished content in the final product is human-crafted" https://t.co/UOhoz6p0ad

[Shane @Luminoth82]

there was a massive exploit in Instagram this week because of exactly this what the actual fuck are you talking about

[Dr Alexander D. Kalian @AlexanderKalian]

Companies keep on blaming AI for their mass layoffs.

Do any of you actually know a single person who was replaced with AI?

I don't and neither do you. It's nonsense - AI is not there yet, and citing it is just an excuse for corporates to behave badly.

[Shane @Luminoth82]

I stg this process should be illegal. I am so tired of these tech companies opaquely burning vc money to rug pull all of us when it runs out

[Frank Rundatz @FrankRundatz]

“Penetration pricing” is the term used when a company burns through Venture Capital money selling a product under its cost to build market share.

Remember how cheap Uber and Lyft used to be? VCs subsidized the drivers and the riders for years. Then they went public and now it costs me $20 for a 3 minute ride down the road.

DoorDash, Uber Eats, Instacart.

MoviePass, Netflix, Hulu.

All of these companies sold below cost to get market share then massively raised their prices, added ads, diminished their products, etc.

AI today is no different. OpenAI and Anthropic are giving us all cheap rides. To do that, they’re selling $1.00 for 10 cents.

Get it while you can before a different kind of penetration begins.

[Shane @Luminoth82]

"never came up" amazing this guy is allowed to run a business

[Business Insider @BusinessInsider]

Sam Altman said AI budgeting has recently become a "huge issue" for some companies, something that "never came up" earlier this year. https://t.co/P2zODBNmDp

[Shane @Luminoth82]

I don't know what the point of this is because employed people would like to max those out as well before the season ends

[mori @maevesfw]

im already maxed on 2/6 cradle paths

pretty far with many factions

saw tons of golds and got a little pile of prestige materials too

6 misriahs :)

i didnt even play good today, lost many games yet this is what i got :///

day 1 btw

[Shane @Luminoth82]

dope shit like this makes me wish we could save this stuff off for each shell on its own

[Poof 🦇 @SailorPoof]

beautiful things happening in my customization

[King Z @pigeonbuttzz]

Marathon has been put under the biggest microscope I've ever seen for a multiplayer game ever. Like some of y'all complain to complain and don't actually care about the game.

[Shane @Luminoth82]

how will you ever survive the loss of your video game franchise

[GiveMeButter @GiveMeButter]

Idk man, I think seeing a game you've spent over a decade of your life towards receive such an unceremonial end, with all planned future content canceled at the last possible moment with no guaranteed sequel on the horizon, might be a justifiable enough reason to be pissed.

[Shane @Luminoth82]

it'll absolutely go away, that's exactly why your game is spinning down and everyone knows it. none of y'all gonna spend any money on anything either, just yap yap and move on

[Grunt 4500 @InfiniteGrunt]

Sony knows, but they think this’ll go away in a couple months.

It’s important we don’t let up.

Play Destiny 2 on June 9th, and keep on playing. Put it into your rotation some way or another, even if it’s just patrolling for 20 minutes.

Do not go quietly into that goodnight.

[Shane @Luminoth82]

a joke. that's what kind of post it is. omg guys

[Giancarlo @giancar73012035]

That's crazy, when the servers are down, there are fewer people. Paul Tassi, you're a damn journalist, what kind of post is this?

[Shane @Luminoth82]

oh bullshit, we'll look at the numbers in a month and at least half of you loud mouths will have moved on to something else. that's the whole reason the game is being wound down, you all are unreliable

[Crusader II Elessar @Crusader3456]

I don't think Sony/Playstation quite understand how unhinged MMO communities can be, especially Destiny's.

We hate the game when its bad and adore it when its good.

We are loud and we aren't just going to go away like players of the single-player franchises you let fester.

[Shane @Luminoth82]

honestly sometimes slashdot too even tho somehow that's still around

[Shane @Luminoth82]

Webrings. That and OG myspace with the customization and music and top friends

[Hubert Thieblot @hthieblot]

Anyone who surfed the early web between 1995-2010.

What’s the one website/app you still think about?

[Shane @Luminoth82]

I think people may have brain holed how week 1/2 went, where all of the sweats already had full Outpost gear by the end of the second day

[Piggy @PiggyKropotkinn]

I like the new season of Marathon, Night Marsh is super cool and the new guns are awesome, so is sentinel

But the 11 free sponsor kits +Night Marsh loot being insane already has me “skipping” the early game. Im not sure we’ll ever get week 1/2 of season 1 again :(

[Shane @Luminoth82]

while I appreciate the sentiment on this I think there's some rose colored goggles happening on how fast the sweats geared up and started slamming employed people who couldn't get past greys

[Skarrow9 @Skarrow9]

Next season I really hope the automatic boosted free kits at launch don’t happen.

Let us be weak for at least a few matches.

One of the best parts of Season 1 was the sponsored kit modes and we are just skipping that kind of gameplay entirely this season :/

[Lazgar Lockman; artificer, blacksmith, goofball @Lazgar_lockman]

All of Steams competition thinks the answer isn't for them to rise to Steams level, but to drag Steam down to their level

[MarathonGG @MarathonGG_]

WE BACK.

[Shane @Luminoth82]

it's not the number of players that's the problem. hope that helps

[Marathon #1 defender @ArachneEnjoyer]

Im sorry but why the fuck can Marathon not handle 30k players???
