    He left rockstar after red dead redemption II, partly because he was tired of dealing with those execs.

    Tired of dealing with greed-flated, not fully rounded humans? I can relate.

        I’m tired of people using “AI” for only generative AI/LLM. Especially in video games ?!

        You’re absolutely right, but you also need to accept that most people think ai means transformers (as in, LLMs and generative/image synthesis)

        It sucks, but that’s how language works unfortunately. How most people use a word ends up defining it.

          It isn’t – it is a completely populist comparison that can’t be used as a meaningful argument.

          CEOs work by this very same principle: say what people want to hear, making their beliefs even stronger and thus increasing their craving to hear that statement again. Repeat until something breaks.

            Machine learning (ML) is a field of study in artificial intelligence concerned with the development and study of statistical algorithms that can learn from data and generalise to unseen data, and thus perform tasks without explicit instructions.

            Artificial intelligence (AI) is the capability of computational systems to perform tasks typically associated with human intelligence, such as learning, reasoning, problem-solving, perception, and decision-making.

              Sounds like machine learning (ML) “a field of study in artificial intelligence” more than what people mean when they say AI, which is Generative AI shortened.

              Obviously depends on context of a conversation though for how you would deduce the usage of the word.

                While I like it as a simile, we didn’t feed cows to cows - we fed them sheep infected with scrapie, at least that’s the theory of how mad cow disease started. I say “we”, I wasn’t involved in the process, I just live here.

                          Mad cow disease is caused by prions from dead cow brains infecting the healthy brains of living cows. It’s kind of the cow equivalent of Kuru.

                              I thought it wasn’t just any prions, but specific prions that replicate out of control after some time, depending on genetics. So cows were fed unclean bone meal from sheep and pigs and cows all mixed together, and they think some scrapie infected sheep spine/brain got in there and it spread to cows. Then it spread from there because we didn’t think cows could get it and even if they could we were pretty certain humans couldn’t get it. But we were wrong.

                                  Stupid question: if you think it’s a good idea but don’t know when the price will go up, you just buy stock and wait. But if you think it’s a bad idea and don’t know when the price will go down, is there any long-term alternative to shorting that doesn’t require betting on the date?

                                      That’s a good question I dont have an answer to. Maybe there are ways to short where you can just hold, but I dont know how. Maybe there’s a way to borrow lots of RAM and GPUs, sell them, then buy them back when the price drops and sell them for cheap back to whom you borrowed. But I dont know who would make that deal.

                                          The ones that were fired 5 years after he left R*? I mean, it’d be nice if he did, but is he really at fault here?

                                          If some of these 35 visa dependent worked for more than 9 years, I am pretty sure he was there when they were exploited to work there. There’s no indication that these workers have less than a 5 year tenure.
