  • People who lived in the 1960s did not by definition live in the 21st century so their definitions of what things may or may not be is immaterial.

    We know what we mean by AI, and attempting to redefine that in the service of some kind of all “sides have a point” fence sitter, is a brainless arguement and is is definitively unhelpful. Defining AI strictly by “a definition of a system that does a thing based on an input”, is both overly broad and demonstrably unhelpful. It’s like arguing that a building that has been reduced to ash by a fire still contains the same constituent elements. Intellectually it’s correct, practically it’s ridiculous.

    Broadly, you are attempting to define AI as anything that any computerised system does. How can you not see that that is an overly broad definition that entirely skirts anything remotely close to the realms of helpfulness.


  • I’m saying that code completion does not constitute AI and certainly isn’t LLMs.

    I then provided an example of why that isn’t the case.

    You decided to respond to this by pointing out that some LLM may be involved in some code completion. Although you didn’t provide an example, so who knows if that’s actually true, it seems sort of weird to use in LLM for code completion as it’s completely unnecessary and entirely inefficient, so I kind of doubt it.

    I just want to point it out for a minute, because it’s sort of feels like you don’t know this, code completion is basically autocomplete for programmers. It’s doing basic string matching, so that if you type fnc it also completes to function(), hardly the stuff of AI


  • I feel like you have never actually developed a game. Because what you’re arguing is just weird. It makes no logical sense.

    A grey box is the very most basic of what a game will ever be, it never bears any resemblance to the finished product. It is the basis most fundamental interpretation of game mechanics and systems. The gray box has no bearing on the final result of the game.

    No grey box contains any aspect of artistic intent, the art team are never even involved in its creation it’s always just developers doing things. Go look up some game blogs.



  • The AI label needs to be present if the finished product contains AI generated assets. So AI generated code, or AI generated art.

    In the example above you grey boxed in AI but then replaced all the assets with ones that humans made. There is no distinction there between doing that and just having literal grey boxes.

    You couldn’t require an AI label in that scenario because it would be utterly unenforceable. How would a developer prove if they did or did not use AI for temporary art?

    So yes you can draw a line. Does the finished product contain AI generated assets. You don’t like that definition because you’re being pedantic but your pedantry interpretation isn’t enforceable, so it’s useless.







  • So why do patients have to pay the fee, why doesn’t the hospital have some system where they go oh yeah, this person with this registration plate has been admitted, leave them alone?

    Why is it on the patient who may very well have a lot more going on than simple pain to arrange matters.

    Because if I had overstayed my 3-hour limit I would have absolutely been charged. They use the excuse of needing to keep spaces open as an excuse to charge people. It’s nothing more than exploitative.








  • I had it once play a video recorded on an old Motorola razr circa 2004. It was this super obscure file format, that basically only this one phone used, and was never used on any other phone.

    VLC didn’t care, played it right out of the box without any problems.

    It supports an obscure single use, 2004 video format. If aliens come to earth, VLC will be able to play their files too.
