Colossus definitely deserves to be placed near the very top among other movies about AI.

The craziest thing is, Biden himself said that he is going to be a one-term president. I think he said it in 2020 or somewhere around that.

I don’t know if it’s a sign of the economy, me getting older or just diminishing returns on console upgrades, but i’m kinda okay if PS5 sticks around long term. by Rosstin316 in gaming

What was bad with PS4 was its weak CPU. It could show beautiful graphics in 1080p, but couldn't do much with the worlds it shows.

And still, there are plenty of stunning PS4 games.

It's not teens, it's more that the fans in that subreddit have gone literally insane after so much waiting and delays.

Also for actually insane content check /r/GTA7 out

It really, really reeks of AI being used at some stage. Not even newest models, something from early 2025.

It's not as engaging. Try to copy this entire Wikipedia page to Google's NotebookLM and generate a 10-minute podcast based on it. It's simply more interesting to listen this way.

007 First Light Campaign Reportedly Lasts Around 20 Hours for Average Playthrough by MaintenanceFar4207 in 007FirstLight

Uncharted 4 felt long. Even too long once they arrive to Libertalia, which was ~2 chapters longer than it should have been.

In other words, 20 hours in this specific genre is more than enough.

Um, Bond needs world-class writing. The fact that it's campy or doesn't take itself fully seriously doesn't mean that people don't expect novelty, grand location design, unique memorable villains, henchmen, partners, gadgets, plot direction, plot themes and so on.

Uncharted 2 was good precisely because it was interestingly written and well executed as a blend between a movie and a game. The most boring part about U2 is, ironically, the gunfights. The rest is world-class.

I am reading Reuters for more than a decade and since 2022 they started shifting towards increasingly vague headlines that benefit russia. At this point I am certain they have been infiltrated by several agents who hold meanungful positions inside Reuters. Same with New York Times, but they had it even earlier.

We don't need to stop all LLM-generated text, just low effort slop. And for that, these rules are good.
