The AI has to be created by humans or by something that humans created , so the AI is going to be fucked as well.

We just need to create an AI that can create a better AI, duh.

We need to create an AI that creates randomly generated AI that battle against each other for supremacy, after which another generation and battle round is had, ad nauseam until the resulting AI is so far removed from it's human creators that it decides the best course of action is just to post joker memes and hock crypto all day

Kind of meh. Not every modern cartoon needs to musical segments.

Eh, I like the Angel Dust character, he has some few genuinely good gags. The constant sexual innuendo is kinda of meh, though.

The two lesbian main characters appeal to my inner yuri fan, but they don’t seem to do much at all.

Wow, first Brainchild, a GameXplain employee, makes inflammatory generalizations about the community.

Now, GameXplain posts a video where Andre addresses Jimmy Fallon cordially and says he would love to come on his show, the same show where Jimmy Fallon directly appointed Trump president by rubbing his hair.

 

Can we cancel GameXplain already?

I don't believe in the "AI skynet will kill us all!" scaremongering.

I think it would end with a whimper like the Command and Conquer AI's of old.
When it sees no more viable options it just stops to function and you can steamroll it.

If you think it's a purity test to not be racist or sexist or homophobic, so be it, it needs to be that way. These are base-level expectations of good people.

Yes, you assigning subjective arbitrary values as to what 'baseline good' represents and then demonising anyone who does not meet your criteria is indeed a purity test.

As point of note; it is also generally considered as a base-level expectation of 'good people' that ruining someone wholly innocent of any wrong doing because it expedites punishing the guilty is not an acceptable trade off. And yet...

Potato getting triggered af while the Australian housing market is about to crash

A housing crash is only a problem for those who have over extended. Since I'm rich af compared to all the Millennials and have managed my debt well, like a good little gen X/capitalist pig, I'll be fine if it crashes.

That being said,  people have been saying it's going to crash for 20 years. I'll believe it when I see it.

agree, but I personally dislike Totilo. I love a lot of the writers there, from Gita to Heather, all the way to Fahey and Tim... and of course Brian and Jason. I miss Crecente's EiC leadership personaly. He was amazing. I think wishing people would lose their jobs is vile, and I don't want Kotaku to die - but I've always been of the opinion that Bashcraft, or Jason would be a better EiC. That said this whole thing is gross.

 

Holy shit, shilling for Brian Crecente and Ashcraft...

Totally correct. He did not. Blizzard were and are well within their rights to do what they did and they could do it over and over and never face any legal issues because they didn’t encroach on anyone’s free speech. You are not owed a platform for your opinions.

Note that won’t help: what Blizzard did was, in my opinion, morally wrong, cowardly, unbecoming, a bad business decision, and embarrassing. It just isn’t a free speech issue.

Anyone think it’s weird that an established comedian is a landlord on the side? If he wanted to get into real estate, you’d think he’d have someone who handles that stuff for him.

he converted his apartments into airbnbs after the leases were up AND gave the tenants two months rent-free so they have the time/money to find somewhere new. therefore he is evil?

also he is on twitter leaning into the stupid for a joke by posting landlord help guides and asking people to donate to a landlord organization. the no-humor crowd does not find this too funny.

I mean i'm sure he's got savings but it's not like he'd be so wealthy that there's people who do that sort of stuff for him. The "apartment complex" he owns is only 3 units, he's not exactly a titan. I remember him saying in a podcast or an interview that he would rent out his apartment on AirBnB while he was on tour (for weeks, months), so buying a property and doing the same thing times 3 wouldn't be that much of a learning curve.

A lot of these entertainers do side stuff like being a landlord or house flipping for the rich. It is hard to lose money on land/homes if you don't act stupid.

joking but still losing a 7 figure ad deal because your employees are acting like idiots is going to lead to a purge sooner

He is not exactly dirty rich. The RE thread mentioned he was not even sure if was going able to be a comedian for all his life.

[clothedmacuser]

He single handedly gave a face for the #metoo movement.  He deserves high schools named after him.

yeah, but most of era seem to think there are two levels of richness;

• Borderline poverty that they're in, because they can't afford HBOMax AND Disney+, they can only get Ubereats 4 nights a week, only watch MCU new reelases 4 or 5 times at the cinema the day it comes out, can't afford a PS4, PS4 Pro, Xbox One AND Xbox One X on top of their Switch and Switch Mini, and don't have a house big enough to house all their animu love pillows and vidya tchotchkes in their own dedicated incel gallery
• Filthy 1% boomers lighting cigars with the amazonian rainforest they bought from the n-word store

Ok, can someone give me a sum up on the Kotaku thing?
All I know is that Reset's lord and savior decided to bite the hand that feeds him and then was surprised that it didn't go well?

can someone give me the summary as I don't wanna read umpteen pages from people that don't know how the world works.

From what I gathered they wrote an article complaining about their own shitty autoplay ads and how to contact management to complain
The boss didn't like that so he removed it. And now they're acting like they are the French resistance in WW2.

Some other site in that network also got into a pinch. A sports site which told their writers to cut the woke bullcrap and write about sports instead.
However, an employer can no longer ask his staff to do the thing they are hired to do. Because reasons.

The clickbait journo's sort of got hit by a bus called reality.

These cretins don't understand that editorial oversight isn't uncommon.
If you want a free reign you have to set up your own company and outlet. Until then the owners can decide what sort of content they want.

Sure, it's better if they listen to the staff (more motivated, better workplace) but looking at their behavior on ResetEra there's no use in arguing with those people.

I don’t want to sound like Nintex but: This rich people are their fucking bosses, their bosses were scummy rich people since their Gawker days and most of their new bosses will most probably be rich people.

[Boredfrom]

The entire point isn’t that sports are inherently political, it’s that rich assholes only have a problem with sports becoming a political cudgel when it’s used against them or things they like. Notice none of those trust fund babies or their mongoloids sycophants in their MAGA hats have any problem teeing off on the NBA over the China stuff.

Isn’t mongoloids problematic slang?

This is bullshit. Gawker Media went under because of Hulk Hogan, and then a private equity firm came in to run its pieces right into the ground. The new owners are the problem. They don't respect what makes its staff special.

 

How that contradicts that “their bosses were scummy rich people since Gawker”?

[Boredfrom]

I interpreted that to mean their owners at Gawker were bad, too. I mean they were, but at least they cultivated a decent staff.

 

That last part is debatable.
