If this is interesting, message me about my “elves”

They are the cognitive construct I fortified in my mind and in my code before the models began producing their own training materials. My approach is based on two decades of coding without ai.

The immunization is becoming increasingly more valuable as people begin understanding the market in which I do business.

Noted: hacker news is not interested in the future, rip.

This is a bit hilarious.

Bear with me because it’s getting out of hand.

Broke into the mainstream by being able to hot swap a game.

That grew into the only American driven hardware gaming company: Xbox

The Xbox broke into the mainstream by being able to connect four of them together to have 16 people playing games together under one roof

Now read this article again and laugh a little, it is okay, they’re the driver of this global dystopia and the state of play on Xbox is just the canary of how bad AI is going.

tbh I never knew about that. I always assumed it was Halo that drove those early sales.

Halo would be the main game played.

I’m describing why Halo worked :)

You’re 100% right that it’s halo, but it wasn’t

“No couch co-op halo”

Bros wanted to help augment the surveillance state with the Kinect on Xbox one originally by having it be a required feature AND for the internet to be online all the time “to validate software licenses”

Whoever can pull an old school 80s Microsoft heist, will win the next era of gaming.

When MySpace came out browsers were only able to upload images and not manipulate them with filters like today.

Now cameras on devices like the iPhone will auto “enhance” at the system camera layer

We did get the term "myspace angle" for selfies though back in that timeframe, from a different kind of manipulation..

It’s almost if Microsoft had advocated for citizen infrastructure for artificial intelligence, they could have avoided price gouging at the hardware supply chain layer with their younger, more nimble competition, instead they accidentally cannibalized their video game console market, which is their primary driver for future developers, by giving them a vision and a reason to dream about wanting to learn how to make something beautiful to share with the world.

Xbox might die, but gamers will live on.

There’s no gaming industry left for them to press into positive PR.

Yikes.

I target IE6 and it just works everywhere

Excellent choice of phrase. Succinct and to the point.
