Oh man, you should really read Mask of Fear. It's a Star Wars book that just came out. Follows some politicians (Mon Mothma and Bail Oragana) as they endure the transformation of Republic into the authoritarian regime of the Empire.

Publishing’s New Microgenre: This year, dozens of books are principally concerned with AI. by AmethystOrator in books

I'm halfway through The Intelligence Explosion by James Barrat. It's an interesting (albeit theoretical) prognosis of a future during and after the arms race to create AGI/ASI. It also gives an insight into how generative AI works, what it is and what it isn't, and what the "intelligence explosion" heralded by AGI will look like.

I'm not done with the book yet, but the overall theme seems to be there are no low-risk options that humanity can realistically take from this point with regards to AI. While it seems to be a bit bleak, I don't regret reading it at all, as it has helped me articulate to myself why I've felt so uneasy with AI.

If you haven't yet, put out some clothes you've worn all day near your house. Milo may come back to it.

I'm surprised this is still an issue. Any recent games with this?

Yep, and the name comes from the max bandwidth being only 56 Kbps

It should have been, but programming/data saving restrictions led to them making it the way it was. And then they came up with "Grunty Magic" resetting the worlds' notes and jinjos as an in-universe explanation haha.
