The problem with game AI is that they "cheat". They don't play like a human. The civ AI straight up gets extra resources, AlphaStar in SC2 performed inhuman feats like giving commands in two different areas of the map simulta

I started using a notepad app on my phone a few months ago. I was quite surprised that they supported images and doodling right there in the middle of text. Felt like this could finally compete with pen & paper.

I think reading fiction has merit on its own. It's an active process where you have to fill in all the gaps of an imaginary world. This makes you take a hypothetical situation seriously, even if it is unreasonable at face value (magic

It's a Battle Royale game with building. Third person shooter. 100 players are dropped off on an island, last one alive wins. A circle is around the island that slowly becomes smaller. If you're out of the circle you take damage.

At least it could theoretically be. Anything outside of that would definitely not be. And at that point the digital cash equivalent will not be considered private. The government has to go above and beyond for people to believe the digital
