All over the place depending on tool.

Those reactionary ideologies will be swept away, I wouldn't worry about it.

And as this tech is perfected, the people who are against will find it increasingly difficult to tell what's 'real' and what's 'fake'. Eventually, it will be impossible to meaningfully oppose it.

Photons have no mass, but they have momentum.

I think the comment above refers to limits that are in our heads, our desires (2nd questions by OP)

Borderlands devs sweating hard rn

Still a bit too heavy to run alongside new games on the same machine. But it could be run server-side for cheap as part of the service. We're looking at the end of NPCs repeating the same few lines ad nauseam without voiceover.

"Commoditize your complement."

They are intencivized to make it open source as a business strategy. Good for us.

This. Imagine if MySpace 2.0 is having a 100% unique VR chill out room, office, meditation space or whatever. Combine with great sound design and let people link VR streams from their personal space.

People don't buy VR sets because they're still a nerd/gamer thing. It must become a status thing and the masses will follow

Imagine being a brain in a vat awoken from 2500000 years of nonstop heaven on fast forward when suddenly a supernova knocks out the infrastructure. Emergency power kicks in to keep you alive, but all simulations are turned off to conserve power while the attendant ASI picks up the pieces. How would that brain feel? Just a funny though :nervous chuckle:

I'm so happy I never installed tiktok despite it being kinda useful for my work (media related). Blissfully unaware

Twitter clout-chasers are why we can't have nice things.

That's a good point, though a new service could integrate with google/facebook data (and later get bought if they succeed).

Google already has a mini-version of this with Google Photos showing pictures from 1/2/3 years ago

You should pitch this to someone. Sounds like an amazing product that could be created right now.

Someone has to tend to the "local gardens."

You're spot on. Google has a reputation to uphold so I wouldn't expect a ChatGPT clone from them. But they will answer - time will show how.

Maybe the AI would give just a little info and offer to send you to those websites, and once there you'd get ads. Unless that model changes as well.

I've left the mass advertising industry a few years ago so I'm not sure how PPC ad campaigns are performing these days. Heard the banner blindness effect is progressing and advertising increasingly relies on trust and image.

This is a matter of adoption and scaling. I don't know when it will happen, but as more people begin to use AI assistants, websites will have to adapt to new ways of searching for information online.

I'm sure Google will find a new (perhaps better) way to monetize, if I had to guess it would be by having a Google search assistant serve you a short answer to whatever query you enter, then a selection of websites with more information. Those websites would pay to be included in the selection, or otherwise optimize for being naturally selected by AI assistants.

Existing companies for SEO-writing and checking bots will soon upgrade to new models and offer an even better product. These bots will write 95% solid articles/product descriptions, and a human will at most check for false claims, just a quick pass, then write a catchy headline that doesn't sound like something written by an AI. Job done.

SEO as a thing will be dead soon though.

Can relate. I had it at 80-ish% when the Persian player invaded with mangs and those damn Elite Elephants. Wrecked my TC in 20 seconds.

Real world =/= video game tech tree. You can't simply assign "research" toward a goal.
