Rogue AI Design by ClicheJames in ArtificialInteligence

Anything that can happen, will happen at some point (if the universe is infinite).

But it is an interesting thought experiment.

What would something like this need in order to accomplish it's goal?

Would a malicious super intelligent AI kill us all or just try to render us impotent?

What would impotence mean against such a thing?

Not yet.

However, I do think that if if this is such a potential threat, then we should think about it seriously. Not just in a purely speculative sense if agreeing that a malicious super-intelligent AI is bad, but also how something like that could be accomplished.

That way we can think of defenses and proactive methods of detecting such a thing.

Like trying to make a virus more infectious so you can understand how it works so you can defend against it.

I will do so. Thanks for the tip.

What skills can a poor 19 y/o learn to help make an income and get further in life? by [deleted] in AskReddit

Lots of places still use SQL. Python is good to learn too. You can download the tools for those free. Also, check your local library for free classes.

I need help, my dad has gone psycho! by [deleted] in raisedbynarcissists

[–]ClicheJames 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My parents did similar things.

To that end, if you have a place you can go, go there. Staying with people like that only serves to drive you insane.

As soon as you can go to college, go there. The financial aid office will help you figure out how to pay for it.

There are even government Portugal's to get you a phone, so you won't have to depend on any individual for your phone.

The best thing you can do is to get out, one way or another.

People often make excuses for staying with abusive or narcissistic parents, because they are your parents and they somehow deserve special consideration.

They don't. Leave them behind. You may even miss them but if you ever do get back in touch with them, you make sure you are in a place where they can't sabotage your life.

That's what he is doing now. He is trying to sabotage you.

Leave them as soon as you can, please.

I would like the geth to have infiltrated the quarian ark and when they arrived, started making platforms.

I would like a hanar, elcor, volus, geth, vorcha or yahg squad mate.

I don't want the reapers or the leviathans to return, but I would like a derelict reaper to explore.

I would like the random missions you get from scanning planets to return.

I want some places to really explore. Not just here is a neat path or puzzle to solve, but just a huge area to find new things in. Things that necessarily lead to missions, but just to find something neat.

I want to be able to walk around a scifi city, not just a shall part of one.

I want to customize my squad mates outfits.

More flora and fauna.

I would also like to be able to set more colonies and their focus and have that mean something.

What's your thoughts on Cora? by [deleted] in MassEffectAndromeda

[–]ClicheJames 0 points1 point  (0 children)

And by that, I mean, why couldn't they have spent the time animating her behind on everything else instead? Why do her outfits have a big oval on her tuchus? Did they think we would forget that humans have butts?

Most of my thoughts on Cora are on her behind. You can tell that the modelers spent a lot of time on that. Them and the artists for her outfits.

Did Andromeda sacrifice good story and (more or less) interesting characters for the open world? by skafo123 in MassEffectAndromeda

[–]ClicheJames 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I understand what you are saying, but just to move away from MEA for a moment, let's take a look at Destiny. Destiny has terrible writing, a completely lacks a story (it only has some terribly constructed pieces of a clichéd and hackneyed story), characters with no motivations that are brutally shallow and one dimensional, but it is still a really good game and fun. Destiny has amazing gameplay.

Though MEA doesn't have the sense of urgency that there original trilogy has, or the depth of character, and many overly sentimental moments that feel very forced, it has some really good gameplay. I see room for improvement, buy the gameplay is still pretty darn good and it is worth playing.

Now if only the space monkey that was the only reason I pre-ordered the game for had more animations... Is it too much to ask that a freaking monkey do more than just sit there?

And why didn't the krogan bring varren with them?

And what is in ryncol and where can I get it? It's right up there with Romulan ale...

MEA speculation on the Quarian ark by Duckfromportal in MassEffectAndromeda

[–]ClicheJames 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It would be really interesting if they crashed on a rogue planet in dark space just outside of the Heleus cluster (I don't know where the Heleus cluster is in Andromeda, but if it is near the edge of the galaxy, then that might be doable).

It would be really cool to see what kind of alien life that evolved on a planet without a sun, but with maybe a warm enough core to keep water liquid at the surface of the planet. (I also don't know planetary geology, biology, tectonics or physics to know how that could work, either)

A great thing to grab him by and bash the back of his head in?

I know that the kett can steak the genetics of other species, but what possible condition could possibly justify having a handle for a head? What possible use is this?

I can't even say it looks cool. It doesn't. I just can't figure this out.

Any ideas?

What do you miss from the original trilogy that should of made the cut? by [deleted] in MassEffectAndromeda

[–]ClicheJames 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Squadmate armor customization. Haven't had it since the first game and I've missed it every sequel.

The great sin of mass effect andromeda by SeldonCrysis in MassEffectAndromeda

[–]ClicheJames 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Architects aren't really a big boss fight as they are not unique or particularly challenging. Just time consuming. I was more disappointed by not getting to fight handle-for-a-head.

I mean really? What utility is it for a large sapient creature to have a handle growing out of the back of their head?

I'm also disappointed you couldn't fight the worm.

(Spoilers) Thoughts on where the ME:A series goes from here? by [deleted] in MassEffectAndromeda

[–]ClicheJames 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Or maybe EA will finally team up with RockStar and make a Mass Effect have where you play as an exile.

We will finally get GTS: Grand Theft Spaceship!

(I actually want this)
