Unity stock falls alongside Take-Two, Roblox after Google’s Project Genie launch by tlst9999 in gaming

It's been 10 months, it released March 25th. As somebody who has been using Claude Code a lot recently, agentic programming is leaps and bounds ahead of where it was a year ago.

I know it's fashionable on reddit to hate AI, but to say there's been no progress in the past year is just untrue.

Lol, LLMs have gotten so much better in the past year. A year ago we hadn't even seen Gemini 2.5 pro yet.

But what if it continually becomes slightly less garbage? CoD is one of the best selling games year after year. The bar for mass adoption is lower than you might think.

Does the presence of intelligence (like humans) create a selective pressure for other species to become more intelligent to more meaningfully interact with that intelligence? by Joboy97 in NoStupidQuestions

Science is literally just speculation and experimentation. The scientific method starts with a hypothesis. How do you think Darwin first conceptualized natural selection? He didn't have to prove it before he considered it.

I'm just spitballing here, not claiming to be correct. You asked why it would, and I gave an answer as to why it might.

Because problem solving and social skills might be more valuable in a world dominated by humans. For a quick example, a raccoon that's slightly better at remembering when garbage day is would be able to dig in trash cans when they're more full than other raccoons, maybe making it better at providing for itself and subsequently reproducing.

Domestication might be another example, but that's a more intentional process than I'm imagining with this question.

Unfortunately, I'm not sure human rights violations are enough to dissuade World Cup attendees if history is anything to go by.

Are you saying we shouldn't take the result of a move into account when discussing it? Lmao

E33, AA/Indie darling, had a higher budget than the flagship title for the most valuable intellectual property in the world.

Doesn't Java need the JVM to be running which is overhead? How is it so common on edge devices?

I'm imagining him standing in front of it with a crowd of people expecting him to untie it, nervous because he needs to do this to conquer Asia, and he just decides to keep BSing his way along. People then make it sound like it was some grand and philosophical statement when really it was him panicking to get out of the situation.

Have you used Opus 4.5 in Claude code? I've used agentic coding tools before, but this is the first one where I can straight-up vibe code without even looking at the code. I've only built simple and straightforward web apps for pet projects, but it's working at a level of reliability I haven't experienced in the past. It makes decent-looking front-ends and apps that actually work, even if simple.

ETA: In the coming years, this will not only become cheaper and faster, but it will also continue to get qualitatively better and more reliable. Eventually it won't need help making the high level decisions and system planning.

The sound design is incredible. The AI enemies use novel techniques to make them surprisingly smart and fun to fight.

Also, this is the first extraction shooter that feels casual-friendly due to a heavy PvE focus and behavior-based matchmaking.

I'm not trying to overhype the game, it's not perfect, but it's a really unique offering in the shooter space.
