I miss the days when video games were used to showcase technical advances.
"Kates built the game to showcase his additron tube, a miniature version of the vacuum tube, though the transistor overtook it in computer development shortly thereafter."
- embedding-shape 11mo agoThey sort of still are (Witcher 4 being used to showcase new UE features and software+hardware optimizations is just one example), but we're getting close to the point where we cannot really add more details and realism to video games and they still don't really hammer the hardware. Seems ML is the new showcase if anything :)

Smell, taste, balance, cardioception, proprioception, pain, temperature, pressure are all missing. Where are the immersive tanks or piezzoelectric coveralls that stimulate all of our senses coherently? I bet adding those would hammer the hardware.
