This. This is a legal earthquake and existing law firms will pivot and new law firms will be created to dive into Big Tech social media settlement money. Plaintiffs will be groomed, "expert" witnesses will be retained for years, judges will get cushy property deals and non-show non-profit jobs for their clans.... the whole shebang is spinning up right now.

And "changes" will only mitigate (no preclude) future cases. This is all unprovable mental health stuff and "harm" can be attributed to anyone that's seen a post since facebook et al. was founded.

Altman and co. are dealing in investments of 10s and 100s of billions of dollars. Disney comes to the table with $1B and expects what, exactly? That OpenAI will be the firewall that protects Disney from AI predation? LOL. Disney will need to 10x or 100x that number at least, and they're still going to lose.

It was male. However, it was also gay, as Colbert will reveal.

Gay elves, gay hobbits. You'll see.

There will be female elves beating up everything: orcs, male elves, male humans, dragons, horses, barrels of ale. Everything.

Also, girl Legolas. Bet that.

Might have made a good date movie, if anyone still went on dates.

Imagine thinking gamers still matter to Huang.

I mean what I said. We've had decades of obfuscation, lies and demurring bullshit on domestic surveillance by FBI and others. Now, the FBI director has committed a little candor and confirmed what we all know. This takes away a fig leaf that surveillance apologist's hide behind.

I'm sure this is frustrating for you: crediting an appointee of the big orange Nazi and all... but there you go. Guess you'll just have to tough it out.

It's more candor than we've ever gotten from any FBI director, ever.

I realize AAA game designers will adapt and use new capabilities to produce better "atmosphere," just as they always have. Shit tier games will still be shit, but different. Ultimately, nothing of value will be lost.

This is an incredibly superficial view of graphical fidelity. Most games do not just push for realism in the sense that it looks just like real life. Instead they pursue artistic realism

I'd be careful throwing the word "most" around there, because personally I think it's highly genre dependent. In a horror game, I'd likely agree with you, particularly in regard to something like lighting. But in something like an FPS, I guarantee realism is likely higher on their list. The "can it run Crysis?" meme didn't come from nowhere...that whole genre was all-in on pushing the edge of photorealism while maintaining frames per second.

I don't care about this much, but I took a quick look.

The DLSS 5 face looks about a decade better than the non-DLSS face. The latter is how faces have appeared for decades in games: not quite there. The former is far better: the eyes look real. Skin tone is convincing. Nice.

The alley/street/whatever is dramatically different. Not necessarily better or worse, but very different. So that's a thing that will bother people that are all wrapped around the axle about "atmosphere."

Overall I prefer the DLSS 5 version pretty strongly. It looks better.

There. A former gamer that likes it. Hate on, you spoiled brats.

Wider temperature range is a killer feature. It simplifies everything, so the plant costs far less and needs much less attention.

LOL.

Prophetic much?

When this one pops, it's going to be biblical.

Well, now you know all this is going to end badly.

AT&T is a $125b/y legacy outfit. They're going to leverage 2x their annual revenue in 5 years on spec...

Yeah. Good luck with that.

Only in the minds of limousine commies that think the US has succumb to the 4th Reich.

Meanwhile, Pavel Durov gets nabbed in France. Graham Linehan gets nabbed in Heathrow by establishment jackboots. Yet in the minds of the special people that jet around the world to attend parody award events, the US is "dangerous."

mmkay.

Given what they've been doing, one is forced to stop and think for a moment whether or not that's a typo. It is a typo, but yeah, still makes you think.
