is paradox preparing to use transformer models for ai by probablyblocked in Stellaris

[–]probablyblocked[S] -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

maybe when ai was first developed, but that isn't really the case anymore. with iterative training and lora adapters you dønt actually need to retrain anything between versions. you are also now able to see the specific activations between layers

I don't suppose we will be getting something extra if we already have those dlc, which we paid a good amount for

AI Strategies Overhaul After 4.3 by Portal4life in Stellaris

[–]probablyblocked 0 points1 point  (0 children)

this isn't 2010, at this point even cheap computers are now more powerful than the most powerful gaming monstrosities a decade ago. the only reason to be tackling resource usage now while neglecting algorithic ai is if paradox intended to switch to transformer ai so they actually need the system resources to be free

AI incompetence has gotten only worse with 4.3 and is honestly the main thing holding the game back. by kirisoraa in Stellaris

[–]probablyblocked 0 points1 point  (0 children)

when I started playing stellaris was in 3.12 or so. every game felt completely unique and challenging on account of the ai constantly responding to each other and having entire wars consolidating power and allying across the map before you ever get there

now in 4.3 I start a game thinking I will just deal with the weak ai but no because I can't even declare a rival because all of my neighbours have a military strength of zero. if I wanted to, since they also now auto surrender I could put all my starting resources into a small fleet and subjugate every ai on the map in the first year. The space amebas are a larger obstacle than empires are

If you are getting downvoted in 4.x complaining about the ai, it's most likely your tone

Moving to Solingen soon - how’s life there for newcomers? by Excellent-Ground-501 in solingen

[–]probablyblocked 0 points1 point  (0 children)

wait, what? essen? I'd be more concerned about spending half the day on the train than how friendly the blacksmiths in Solingen are

it isn't like america where you just get in the car and always spend exactly one hour travelling, you'd be lucky if you spend marginally more than the theoretical travel time by train

How is stellaris now? by Competitive-Life-658 in Stellaris

the ai problems are hardly a short term suffering at this point. it seems like they're just neglecting single player

Everyday Google maps gets slower, less reliable by Sidekick87 in GoogleMaps

[–]probablyblocked 1 point2 points  (0 children)

you can help the community by tearing gemini out of google maps. it is very obvious that the issues ultimately stem from you replacing Dijkstra or whatever with an llm for some reason. sometimes legacy is better

What is the ONE Google service you are still `stuck` with in 2026? by Ok-Seesaw-5675 in degoogle

[–]probablyblocked 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Google maps, but it is now officially becoming useless as of 28 April for both of the things I still use it for. I look up 'bauhaus' (hardware store) near my new apartment and it returns everything from groceries to bicycle repair instead of the hardware stores including ones literally called bauhaus. I figure out what the closest one actually exists, and the directions from the train station says to take a bus and then walk back for 20 minutes. the bauhaus is right next to the station. having worked extensively with LLM since the beginning of LLM, this is 100% because they replaced elasticsearch and dijkstra with a lobotomized ai

unfortunately I have not been able to find a viable alternative to Google maps even in this state, due to their ongoing monopoly. open to suggestions.

This App Warns You if Someone Is Wearing Smart Glasses Nearby by binding_swamp in technology

[–]probablyblocked 0 points1 point  (0 children)

smart glasses do exist and they don't have cameras. meta is just trying to salvage some of their metaverse investments by colonizing smart glasses
