A priest, a pastor, and a rabbit walked into a clinic to donate blood. The doctor says to the rabbit: "What's your blood type?"
"I'm probably a Type O", the rabbit replied with great sadness.
Not celebrating the loss at all. Just pointing out that when you cater to the social engineering of the insane woke left (who don't even play your games), instead of creating great games for the gamers that actually buy your games, you go broke.
Go woke, go broke. FAFO.
We can be sad and also point out why they failed.
Truly sad. I have fond memories of my adventures in the Jade Empire universe.
But this is exactly what happens when you prioritize PLEASING WOKE HUCKSTERS WHO DON'T EVEN PLAY your games, instead of catering to the loyal fans who just want to play great games.
I'll say it again, AI monkeys banging on a keyboard aside, it is impossible for an AI to create a great game, cure cancer, or solve global warming, etc.
A super-intelligence (Human + AI, aka human steering AI)? Yes, but that's not AI.
You vibe coders can try it:
"Make me a great game that will make me rich beyond my wildest dreams"
I'll wait. It won't. It can't.
Humans set these goals as problems to solve because they matter to our survival (yeah games too :-) and we evolved from the environment. AI has none of that coupling, so it has no reason on its own to pursue any of them.
And so here's Flor's Corollary (academic voice on): Any system that solves a hard human problem does so ONLY because humans defined the objective, supplied the criteria for success, and kept steering. It's not an autonomous solver. It is a HIGH-CAPACITY INSTRUMENT inside a human-directed distributed cognitive system. And that (HUMAN+AI Super-Intelligence) is the only form of super-intelligence that is not empty.
p.s., I am not a famous AI CEO, and the algorithms will not let anyone hear it outside my two followers. But it is the truth not the hype, and the truth belongs to everyone, and anyone with eyes can see it.
Human + AI Intelligence = Super Intelligence
It's the interaction that makes the intelligence super.
An AI alone solves nothing, because it's not integrated with the world [1].
Let this sink in: All the super things we're seeing with AI result from a human steering the AI. The AI alone does nothing. We're ignoring the importance of a human in the loop. WE are serving as an Elon Musk, driving the AI to perform super things.
Ok, academic voice:
[1] Flor's Hypothesis 1: Embodiment (a robot body) does NOT create purpose. A robot with sensors still has no reason to cure cancer, reduce suffering, or solve any other human problem unless a human has defined that as the objective and keeps directing it. Why? Because a robot body has no stake in the outcome. The "super" still comes from the human in the loop.
[2] Flor's Hypothesis 2: AI has already achieved AGI. What it hasn't achieved, and never will, is AHGP (Autonomous Human Goal Pursuit). That does not emerge from more parameters, better training, or the embodiment in [1]. It requires a human whose biology and evolved symbiosis with the environment defines which problems matter and keeps steering toward them.
That's why Human + AI is the actual superintelligence.
The human is where the problem solved by superintelligence comes from.
yeah
@TomlinSteelers Stop engagement farming. He got called for two or three pass interference calls. He's a lying, morally bankrupt scrub whose holding will cost the cowboys games.
