@itsme_urstruly The only thing that could improve the drawing is making the dog wall-eyed.

@Ryan_Gasoline @nap_ygg These people are giving you the Pokémon explanation for Star Wars.

@em_Lazzy I think, if Kamala Harris or Hillary Clinton had become president, we would have gotten used to using their surnames while they were in office, just like we said "Secretary" Clinton when she was Secretary of State. But yeah, Kamala and Hillary were distinguishing and memorable.

@NoMansSky Awesome! Thanks for the quick updates! I’m looking forward to seeing where all of this is headed!

@dmawlf @hagdaughter It also depends on how well Microsoft and game devs optimize for it, though, right? One of the reasons it works so well for Apple is because they are great at optimization (ofc, they have an advantage of only having to optimize for a few machines, and having vertical control)

@geoffkeighley Ah, so the third one will be called “Cubed,” leading up to the inevitable release of the revolutionary new game mechanics unveiled in the fourth one, “Tessaract”

@alex_lrz_nmv @KaiXCreator Me crying in After Effects... 😭

@BongBong @TheBillyWest @mexopolis It's not the tool itself that gives artists an ugly feeling about it. It is the theft used to create the tool.

It's so weird. My Dad pushed me so hard to be an honest person, to never pirate games, music, movies, etc. And now he calls me a luddite for rejecting AI tools...

@Browniesartz @ToonHive Also Voltron. Netflix doesn't want to pay for the rights anymore (or royalties?) to the actual production company.

@HumanNatureX @JamieBonkiewicz Nah man, that’s a totally different sentence.

@L0std0tVR @TheAppleDesign The inside is a work of art, though

@rockwellboyz97 @NoMansSky Yeah, they need to lock key areas from base building, but also open locked spaces to processors.

[Jim Huffaker @jayfaker]

@uhhactuallynah @NoMansSky Maybe they should make it like other live service games, where the first few missions you play are weighted heavily toward community progress, and then the effect the missions have drop off, but still have a small effect. That way you can keep playing if you want to.

@atmoio Your soul writes less spaghetti?

[Jim Huffaker @jayfaker]

@ZacksJerryRig maybe if we build more ai data centers that will fix it

@Zelaronix86 @PlayStation There is a 30 hour story to teach you mostly everything. And usually expeditions will guide you along, even if you're new.

It's not like me trying to play Minecraft with my kids who don't want to teach me and having no clue how to progress beyond making a couple of tools.

Let me trace the timeline here because nobody's connecting it.

Step 1: Scrape the entire internet. Every book, every article, every conversation, every piece of art, every forum post. Do it without asking. Do it without paying.

Step 2: Train a model on all of it. Call it "artificial intelligence."

Step 3: Go to BlackRock's Infrastructure Summit and announce: "We see a future where intelligence is a utility, like electricity or water, and people buy it from us on a meter."

Step 3 is where you sell people's own knowledge back to them. On a meter.

They took the collective output of human thought, compressed it into a model, and now they want to charge you by the token to access a version of what you and everyone you know already created.

One Reddit user put it perfectly: "They stole all this data from us, the people, our life's work, creativity, art, by devouring the internet and blowing through all copyright laws. Now they want to sell it back to us in the form of a utility."

Imagine if someone photocopied every book in the public library, burned the library down, and then opened a subscription service for the copies.

That's the metered intelligence business model.

And they're pitching it to infrastructure investors as though they invented water.

@JennyENicholson But, the only reason they would do that.. is to boost their viewership statistics for investors?
