I wonder if we have reached the point where Agentic LLMs could produce complex enough expert systems for these games to create a dynamic experience without needing a separate cluster of high end gaming PCs just to run the model?

Personally I would rather vote to ban them if they aren't safe enough. If car makers want to cheap out at the expense of public safety they should go to prison for the people they kill.

This article doesn't make any sense. An LLM is just the model. This is why you have things like Guardrails and sandboxes. Also you guard the inputs for the LLM prompt the same way you guard against SQL injection attacks. It's a bi

Yeah, sometimes you just have to throw out the current solution and start over/rollback. AI will go down some weird rabbit holes to solve a problem with the wrong requirements. Sometimes I feel like I'm just coding in English inst

If I'm working on a non-coercive environment (No deadlines, requirements, etc..) hand coding in hyper-focus mode is extremely zen. But working on a deadline it really hurts. My brain can't help but ratchet up the stress.

I agree, the speed at which the agents work is a problem. It creates an interrupt workflow instead of a flow workflow. This works for some people but I notice that I don't do well that way. Typically I'll have an agent working on

I've noticed that you can either move very fast with AI, or very slow. Moving fast, you place a lot of trust in the agent and let it proceed and create something very quickly that works at a surface level and that you don't unders

I think the biggest advantage rails have is that they are electrified and are accessible by rail based maintenance vehicles. Panels have gotten so inexpensive that the major cost is usually the mounting, installation, and electrical access.

LLMs are essentially a text prediction engine. This can be used for basic reasoning tasks, however the LLM doesn't have much in the way of actual knowledge. However, it can use knowledge that exists to predict text better. For instance
