The below is written with the metaphorical "you" ... When you ask an AI to analyze a data set, you expect to get a reliable result based on specified input parameters. If you ask the AI to analyze the same data set two days later using the exact same input parameters, you expect to get the...

There is the answer I sought. AI does not provide reliably repeatable output when using the same inputs. I feared as much that the AI creators would incorporate anthropomorphism in an effort to provide a plausible Touring test chat bot. The last example I provided, "give me a letter of the...

@Grimlakin ... instead of "generate" rephrase to "give" so that it doesn't think you want it to use a RNG. I appreciate both you and @Brian_B stepping in to run the experiment. The test I initially gave was meant to be an example of an open-ended question with no specific answer. It could...

Yeah, all of them have been on GoG for a while. I have all but Saboteur, but that one is currently on sale (or was last I checked).

I have zero point no interest in running a local AI, but I do have this question for those that do. Is the AI output reliably reproducible? For example, if you ask it to "provide a number between one and ten." Will it give the same number every time?

Can't they use their AI to whip up a new design? /s

The GoG install files for Horizon: Zero Dawn - Complete Edition weigh in at around 71.4 GB, but I don't have it installed to know the unpacked disk size. So I suspect there's probably a little bloat going on with the Forbidden West edition. Yes, I'm aware they're two different games, but can...

"Uhh ... I quit!" "No, you were fired." Sounds like Embracer Group is in a financial bind and needs to sell off assets to get back on even footing. As romantic of a notion as it may seem, and spin it however they may, studios are not necessarily escaping the clutches of their evil overlords...

Can you imagine a staff meeting where integrating this hardware into a game is discussed: "So, solely for research purposes ... what do sweaty horse testicles smell like?"

Empty metrics are meaningless. Define "player engagement". Does install+uninstall = engagement?

So now in your racing game if you pass over day-old skunk roadkill, do you get the authentic experience?

Apple is now chasing trends rather than setting them. This will end poorly ...

Anyone want to take a bet whether Jensen would rather AI or skilled programmers prepare the next set of Nvidia GPU drivers?

Interesting, because the video @DrezKill linked clearly shows one crew using grappling ropes to haul in an adjacent ship. I wonder if the scene quickly jumps to a stat screen when the ships make contact? [edit: no, I don't care enough to investigate any further; I stopped at "Ubisoft".] The...

About the same time I stopped subscribing to the print edition. :cool:

WBPA? I'm not familiar with that acronym. Wandering Butt-Pirate Affiliation?

I generally ignore most of what Ubisoft does. What kind of game is this (besides some sort of sailing/pirate action/adventure game)? Is it a MMO, single player, or ??? n/m ... Wikipedia and I figured it out.

Sounds risky. (bah dum tish) Reminds me of a sitcom Mrs. Ditchinit used to watch years ago about an airline flight that made regular runs between LA and Las Vegas. I don't think it lasted more than a couple seasons (if that).

101-keys or GTFO. ?

Color me skeptical. They've been nagging me to upgrade from 10 to 11 all too often. Hunting for the decline button is getting more difficult with each new "suggestion".
