Is this cheese grater conscious? Many users feel they're talking to a real person. Scientists say it's time to consider whether they're onto something.

What if Dark Souls had a modern protagonist?

Another week, another reminder about these! Hey #booksky, I'm an #indieauthor who could really use a bit of a boost these days, help me out? 100% human-written, 50% human characters!

Seems like a good enough time to post this #Halo 2 video again, talking about the game that was almost really good if only it could have stopped slamming its face into multiple walls, seemingly on purpose.

The youtube algorithm is so cool because I can not upload anything for half a year and have 4-year-old videos pulling in 4k views a day but then I upload something and those same ones drop to 500.

These are all so good and I hope to one day own a VR setup so I can play that one too.
What better way to get into the Halloween spirit than with up to 80% off The Room games in the Steam Scream Fest😱! Prepare for some paranormal puzzling!

Been a couple days, so I'm waving this around again. 50% of a good game is still worth talking about, right?

Given the recent news about the Halo 1 remake, I decided to publish my big critique of 2 a little earlier than originally intended.
I don't think I've ever played a game so dangerously close to being really good but so eager to stomp on its own toes.

Halo being remade for Playstation will be a great time for people to start to realize that maybe it wasn't the game they thought it was when they were 10.

Creativity and creation are not tasks to be shortcutted and solved. Everyone, and I mean every single person who finds any amount of value in these tools, is not and has no idea what it means to want to create something.
Why? Who is this meant to be good for? Nobody wants your shit AI books, never mind 8,000 in a year. Just a terrible idea and a horrible road the publishing industry is heading down.

Hey PSA to my YT people out there but Auto-Dubbing using AI is getting automatically enabled on your channel and opting out of it is buried deep in the depths of your channel.

Got a game coming up soon so here's some reinforcements: Khorne Skullreapers! For how chunky they are, they sure are nimble on those tippytoes of theirs. I kind of wish more of them had their feet planted.

Between Strange New Worlds and Alien Earth, there's been a small but strong resurgence of guys in rubber monster suits and I think that's wonderful

I'm being so real right now, learn how to engage in media as art and not a reflection of your own real life morals. consume things that make you uncomfortable and understand why it makes you uncomfortable. Don't just base yours and others morals standings on the media you consume.

Hey guys I have a solution: program the fucker to be capable of saying "I DON'T KNOW"
In general I hate that "I don't know" is way way worse than lying now?? Bullshitting something and hoping you get away with it is valued more than admitting something is out of your league

And literally four days later from this story Open AI admits what we all know to he true.
That when a model generates bullshit, that’s no flaw, that’s just how it works.
