If I built a robot pigeon that can fly, scavenge for crumbs, sing matings calls, and approximate sex with other pigeons, is that an AGI? It can't read or write or talk or compose music or draw or paint or do math or use the scientific method or debate philosophy. But it can do everything a pigeon can. Is it general or not? And if it's not, what makes human intelligence general in a way that pigeon intelligence isn't?
I still think AI has its place as a useful term in video games development
Humans are easier to indoctrinate than sapient robots, because human biases are predictable.
Fascist politician: the Jews are stealing your money to cause the downfall of your race! They're even breeding your children with black people to destroy you!
Human reaction: yeah, that makes sense
Robot reaction: ...why tho?
Robots may still have biases, but they probably won't be exactly the same as a human's. I doubt a robot would care for a "think of the children" argument
And who decides what a true bug is, huh? Bullshit pseudoscientific taxonomists?
I disagree. The bad reviews and refunds produced, effectively, a single bad week for the company, while getting the publisher to backtrack on a decision that would have slowly but surely killed both the game and the company. Spitz saved Arrowhead. Unfortunately, instead of capitalising on the cooperation between developers and players to win back their reputations and make the game profitable again, Arrowhead decided to throw away Spitz' hard work by firing him, ruining their reputation just after he saved it for them. Now they're fucked.
The way I see it, their only chance to return to profitability is for them to explain that Spitz was fired for his earlier comments mocking players for complaining about PSN. If they did that, the players would return to Arrowhead's side. But if the narrative that he was fired for sticking with the players and saving the company prevails, then Arrowhead is doomed.
Arkane's gone? Aw.
If Grummz isn't far right, why are they using Elon Musk's Nazi platform Xitter and not any number of open source, non-nazi alternatives such as Mastodon or Bluesky? I am automatically inclined to believe any Xitter user is a conservative.
Oh, is that why my parents abused me? Because of a probability model? Tell me, was it Bayes' theorem that made them teach me to repress my gender, and to misgender me for years after I came out as an adult?
Good people shouldn't let "got mine fuck you" people have their mine, especially if their mine is a relationship with a good person
But it says it's from the 8th of may 2024. Are you saying the posting bot would lie to me?
"Wow," says a puddle in a ditch. "This ditch is shaped exactly like me. If it weren't for the ditch's precise shape, I couldn't have formed here. I'm really lucky." The puddle, of course, has never seen a puddle in a different ditch and never realised that puddles come in many shapes.
