You point out that things are not as they should be and argue that changing them will be hard, because that's how they are... to me, these points are a great motivation to introduce the legislature: A. Such initiatives make government

Are you suggesting that GPL licenses should be invalidated and everyone should be able to use GPL code broadly, because it's free anyway? Is this some kind of modern reversed version of Robin Hood: steal from the poor and give to the r

Did you just compare the happy birthday song to a function from GPL-licensed repository? Is the song licensed, does it have commercial competition? Sorry, but you sound just a little biased and greedy to me...

Ok, so Sam Altman disagreed with AI doomers, great, but the point is still generally valid, for a couple of reasons: 1. What about Elon Musk and hundreds of other AI investors? It's in their interest to overhype AI, while temporarily s

However, is ChatGPT a solution to virtual assistant? I'm not sure, because virtual assistants work with huge databases of entities, e.g., songs or movies, and it's not really clear that ChatGPT can handle this. A couple of days ag

You definitely sound all emotional. Take it easy.

Honestly, what makes you feel convinced that the current AI wave will be so impactful, once you take away all the hype?

Is this mechanism still in the game? That is, in Adventure Mode the player is supposed to steer the character in a way that is aligned with the character's personality, or else the character will get depressed? I imagine this could be
