Nah, the guy's Austrailian, which is technically south of the Equator. He's just trying to invoke magic words to win the argument.

If you believed that, you'd have posted it on our discord.

I'm struggling to think of good examples - Outer Wilds felt in class of it's own when I played it.

I do play a decent range of games that don't even have a victory condition, though. What is the "win" in a live service game, other than having fun? Is there a Perfect (Beaver) City for Timberborn?

Ah, wait, 'intradialectically'. You mean you, the player, have to work out the goal to get there, rather than following the narrative until the goal becomes clear.

Is that akin to the thing with Undertale, where if you do it Wrong the game lets you walk into hell at your own pace?

I assume you're looking for something more than "there's a mystery to solve"?

eg Horizon Zero Dawn, a game about searching for the truth about Aloy's mother and fighting robot dinosaurs in post-apocalyptic America, does not exactly jump out and say "you're trying to work out how the world ended".

I assume you start by asking the AI to do the sketch, then all the ai to block colour it, then finish, feeding the AI the result of the previous query each time.

Now, they may pick up the pattern enough to, say, know that you reference Plessy v. Ferguson when talking about issues of racial discrimination, but you cannot rely on that at all!

AI is trained on patterns (of words, in this case), and they produce examples of those patterns.
They don't 'know' that a citation is a reference, they just know that every example they've seen has a bit that says "as argued in Bob vs Dave", so they put that phrasing in where it 'usually' appears.

A large chunk of that is down to the post-WW2 political landscape in the US. Elections were fought - and won - by politicians pledging to do more good in the world than their opponent's pledges.
People believed that the US should be doing international aid work, and would place their votes in line.
