    So they've been sold snake oil. This, along with colonizing Mars and mining asteroids, is complete and total science fiction.

    It is almost as if the technology is not as good as everyone claims. If they were, the game would already be over.

    Kernel level anti-cheat seems to be ultimately ineffective. I've seen this with my own eyes with backend data when I worked for a company with a moderately successful shooter. Kern…

    I mean, yeah, if I'm going off the cuff it seems like a scam either way. What you describe is just regular product stuff, AI doesn't change that much here. Though, what I do see th…

    You may be correct, but from a user experience and product standpoint, you'll never get around the fact that if something doesn't feel real then it will also feel less quality and …

    Honestly, this is close to my experience within my org. It is not 0%, but it is very close. It seems like you're just uncomfortable with the author's experience conflicting with yo…

    If you read the article, the go over a case where they introduce AI into their pitch and were met with results they were not comfortable with.

    I get what you are saying, and while I'll say it is definitely not 0%, I have seen very little in the way of useful software that is primarily generated. The vast majority just doe…

    Nvidia has been historically tricky, but in the last two years or so (maybe longer), I have not needed to do any manual work for drivers. Sometimes, you may see some diminished per…

    I think folks ITT are trivializing the issue here. Many keep drawing parallels to LLMs being akin to the loom or calculator. That seems intellectually dishonest to me. Those tools …

    Your suspicion is already being studied with increased effort, and the starting point has solid bones: https://arxiv.org/pdf/2604.04721 For what it is worth, my colleagues who use …

    It doesn't take kernel level anticheat to detect that kind of behavior. This is just laziness.

    I think this is the answer. You get a lot more false positives, but at least the players can do something about it and aren't at the mercy of devs who can stop support at any time …

    Yes, but keep in mind there is a while world of EV production out there not available to the US for one reason or another that are plenty competitive with the low tier combustion e…

    If we ignore the cultural issues with Americans where some places buying an EV is considered "gay" (because that is inheritently negative to them) then we can easily point to the h…

    Reading this thread makes me feel like I'm taking crazy pills. The folks on this train in my team do not produce anything significant that we can rely on or use. A lot of hollow pr…

    It's getting exponentially better, and everything is getting cheaper, and it's the end of SaaS! But I am still waiting. If everything was as the hype folks said it was, we would al…
