  • Yes! I’m sure it’s pedantic, but the term AI was coined during the 1956 Dartmouth Conference. It was meant to refer to the emerging field of computerized “intelligence” or decision making.

    Technically the ghosts in Pacman are properly AI, just a really simple algorithm. The pioneering Perceptron, backgammon algorithms, automated control. It’s all AI, it’s just some of it is very primitive.

    Whether or not current LLM based AI are"genuinely intelligent" is beside the point.


  • GoG was my second digital store, I resisted Steam for so long, but over the years, Steam has become my #1 source for games. It’s just so easy, plus they are relatively consumer friendly. With the revamp of Steam Families, it’s just so so much easier to have everyone playing on Steam. Plus I have a Steam Deck.

    I try and buy games on GoG, set them up with Heroic, and it works great, better than EA, Epic and other storefronts, but just not quite as slick as Steam.

    One day St. Gabe will be martyred, and Steam will undergo the unavoidable descent into enshittification, as to will GoG. I do not pledge undying loyalty to any platform, but Steam and GoG have been awesome for so long.

    Besides, other than Itch and Humble Bundle, who even comes close in being good to use?
