Oh man, I remember this so well. Funny enough, I thought of Peter Molyneux a few months ago and started looking up info about him. Get this: he said in an interview that the reason he even got INTO software development in the first place was through deception. Back in the day, his girlfriend's dad convinced him to start a company that delivered beans to the Middle East, which he named Taurus. One day, the computer company Commodore called him out of the blue and invited him to visit their office. He was confused, but he went along anyway. They showed him the Amiga 1000 and asked him to create software for it, and he was even more confused. Eventually he realized that they had mistaken his bean delivery company for a software development company called Torus. But did he correct them? NOPE! He just ran along with it, agreed to develop software for the Amiga, and went back home to frantically learn how to program.
@HorseDe-luxe
9 ай бұрын
I still can't believe that story. The software involved networking, too, which would presumably add a lot of complication to the task, so for Peter to just agree to program that, and then successfully do so, is truly astonishing. The 80s were such a different time. That said, he did have some prior programming experience, since he had previously released a business simulation game that nobody wanted, and its failure was why he went into the beans business. But still.

The guys then ran with it and literally rented up a workshop and staged various bits and parts of their rifles to make it look like they had a full production staff. Eventually they got the contract and the rest is history. But I digress, outlandish stuff has happened.

The first time I saw that preview for Milo was in my junior high classroom. A pair of guest speakers came in, showed us the video, and asked us "What looks dangerous here?". I was called on and answered something like, "Spending enough time talking to a computer may cause the user to disassociate with reality". The speakers responded with a confused "Uh, good guess? The answer is stranger danger." The concept of a conversational AI was so unheard of at the time, that people thought it was an avatar for a real person. People thought this, worked it into a concept for a "stranger danger/ internet safety" presentation, and sold this presentation to schools. Absurd. Glad I saw it.

Instead a dog understands gestures and the tone of your voice. A dog grows up much faster, they could even make the dog grow up from puppy to adult with your "parenting". Yor can throw a ball, teach tricks, give him threats and pets. All this would be easy with the motion capture technology.

Humans in general have a bias towards believing the first thing they hear even if it later turns out that the first thing they heard was false. So even adults are likely to ignore or not retain an update to something they heard. Now if we combine that natural tendency with a child's lack of knowledge about the actual tech going on behind the scenes and its limitations and the child's default of trusting adults, it isn't hard to see how one would be easily conned into believing the lie and likely even taking a position to defend the lie if challenged on it by someone else.

He reminds me of a friend I knew many moons ago. He was a really nice guy, wouldn't hurt a fly intentionally. Sadly he had the habit of making up things for literally no reason. My theory was that because he came from a very poor family, he felt like he had to make up things, so people would hang on his lips. Sadly this always imploded when the truth was revealed, which just made more and more people just ignore anything he says, because 90% of the time it would just be BS. Which in turn made him feel even more insecure, and thus he came up with increasingly crazy things. We had this group of friends, all in their late teens, early twenties, boys and girls, that used to hang out and do things together. I tried to involve him in things as much as possible, trying to build up his self-esteem so he wouldn't feel the need to make up lies. Let me give you one example that really floored me once. One weekend one of the girls in our group had her birthday party at her house, and of course we were all invited. He lived quite close to her, I lived on the other side of town, so he saw her a lot more than I did. Now back then I never dated anybody, I was focused on other things, so somehow never bothered having a gf, since....I don't know, it just wasn't a priority for me back then. Turns out the birthday girl had a crush on me, even though I've never (consciously) gave her or anybody else any indication that I was interested in a relationship. I was just friendly with everybody, because I enjoyed their company, and we all had a lot of fun together. For some unknown reason, mister BS decided to tell this girl, that I told him in secret, that I was going to propose to her during her birthday party that night. How he thought this was going to work out is beyond me. Anyway, I got there that night, with a nice crystal set of glasses, nicely packaged in gift paper, not having a clue what was happening. But apparently by this time everybody there "knew" that I was going to propose to her. I felt there was a bit of a weird vibe going on, her younger sisters running past me, looking at me and giggling for no reason, things like that. Things that normally didn't happen. I was like, wtf is going on!! Anyway, at some point people started handing her the gifts, so I went to get mine from the car, and when I got back, they had created like....an alley with them stading on both sides, and her at the end looking very nervous, smiling at me in a weird way, and I'm like dang!!! She must really enjoy getting gifts!! Anyway, so I gave her my gift, she opened it up with eyes positively gleaming, and then her face dropped when she saw the glasses, and everybody was murmuring confused. She just said thank you, then went inside, and I had the distinct feeling she was crying as she walked away, with the other girls helping her, patting her on the back, even though I could not imagine why. I was so confused. I literally thought she was upset about the glasses, because she somehow hated glasses as a gift or something. It was only after someone at some point explained to me what happened, that I realized what was going on. To say I was furious, would be an understatement. I immediately started looking for mr BS, but he left as soon as it hit the fan. The whole party was kinda ruined, and I went home a little later too. Anyway, after that incident I started ignoring mr BS, and eventually the group kinda dissolved, I moved away to another city on the other side of the country, and we all kinda lost contact. This was all in the 90's, so way before Facebook or other social media things. So about two years ago I decided to see how everybody in the group did, also what ever happened to the girl etc. So I started looking them all up, and long story short, she got married some years later, and had a nice family, so that all ended well. Sadly it turns out just a year or so before I tracked his profile down, mr BS hung himself at his parents house. No idea why, but if I should guess, I think he just ended up all alone, because nobody wanted to have anything to do with him, because of the havoc he created with his lies. This probably was what drove him to end it. I couldn't help but feel sorry for him. He was such a nice guy, and there was literally no reason for him to lie about anything!! People liked him because of him. Yet somehow he felt that was not enough, and he had to somehow make things "better" than what it really was. Sadly it just always ended in complete disaster. Life can be so strange sometimes.

I think when he started he just couldn't stop it. My mother was a liar, it started with "innocent" lies what helped her controlling her childrens. Later when she wanted me to do things she didn't asked anymore she just made up something, like her back is hurt or somehing like that so I do the things for her. The problem is I grew up in communism so one day in the late 80's when the communism was over and we could talk about the truth I realised everything I know is a lie. Everything the teachers told me was a lie and my parents never told me the truth therefore they participated in the lies. My grades were dropped from 5 to 2 which is a big deal and I stopped listening to people. She was unable to accept any responsibility so she chosed to lie again and again till it solve everything, and she did that for two decades straight. As soon as she saw me she started lying and she was so good at it in the end she believed every lie she told. And it was like a reflex later. As soon as she saw me she had to lie, she couldn't stop till she died. I saw this behavior in other people. For example one girl was started to complain to an other person and she got used to it she did that all the time, and because she failed to know that other person she had nothing left but complaining. Happening with people who have a hard time facing the truth.

I feel like more than anything else, the most potential that AI has for a real-world application at least for the moment is being used in a game. We don't have sufficiently advanced AI that it can be regularly trusted in a dangerous setting, and it isn't accurate enough to be used for things that require perfectly recalling facts and not hallucinating. A video game is the perfect sandbox to test its regular abilities, and extend it to even more consumers, cause we are seeing ever-more powerful GPU's arise, and ever-increasing RAM requirements for games, so eventually we might get to have these games actually optimised, and that RAM and GPU power instead used to run character models for the game world. Writing code should be a breeze with advancements too, so this tech seems to just be made for developing a game!

I worked for a boss like him once. It was incredibly stressful. I was afraid of brainstorm sessions because he would take something you said out of context, exaggerate it, and pitch it to executives without running it by anyone. Then he comes back with a ridiculously short timelines on wild features that the business thinks you've already been working on. It seems like a tactic to add pressure to your employees to work harder while simultaneously tricking the business into funding you. His previous job was a used car salesman, and it definitely has the same energy as pushing a junker on a customer.

I only heard little about black and white, played, it was a good idea with okay execution. And note: Executing a grand vision "okay" is good thing and can be a great game. Now, promising a simple game and over delivering also works; then the game becomes well received, because the great things shine and the flaws are just there - nobody expected perfection and the great things being great makes small imperfection seem inconsequential for the big picture (and/or the emotional pay off of the story). If how ever someone sells perfection and then delivers just good, then small flaws might look big.

Most of the hard parts on the AI side have already been done for you, it just needs to all be strung together.

@@FatAlbert1020 Sure, except services like OpenAI and Google's currently free cloud AI services run a complete loss right now. OpenAI in particular costs Microsoft millions every year to operate, and that's just the chat component. We're talking about end to end AI here. That means object, expression, and pattern recognition models, realtime voice recognition and natural voice synthesis, a conversational core, AI driven movement and physics, not to mention the huge system RAM pool required for an AI to keep a degree of conversational memory long enough to accurately respond to probing questions and memorize personal details (like "don't forget tomorrow is your mum's birthday"). The conversational core alone will wholly occupy one of these GPUs just trying to respond in under 10 seconds (the "awkward pause" gap in conversational dialogue) and that's ignoring the time it takes to go through all these steps. The cost of operating it while breaking even as a business model would be at minimum a $100/month subscription, way too steep a price to sell as a service.

@@andyenglish4303 The promise was that no such achievements would ever exist. So you could do absolutely everything in a DLC but you wouldn't get any achievements for it. At the time, a lot of gamers didn't like the idea of DLC having achievements at all because it meant they wouldn't be able to 100% the achievements in a game without shelling out more money. Microsoft were just trying to placate them and make them more accepting of DLC in general. Remember, DLC was a brand new concept at the time and achievements had just been introduced at the beginning of that console generation. Sure, expansions had existed before on physical media like the Bloodmoon and Tribunal expansions for Morrowind. However, those predated achievements so it wasn't an issue. People weren't sure how achievements and DLC should interact, if at all. Personally, I've never really bothered with achievements so it didn't affect me. If I get them in the course of a playthrough, cool. If not, that's fine. I don't really care. I rarely go out of my way to get an achievement. I just find it funny how quickly they made and broke that promise.

It never mattered to me but plenty of people felt very strongly about it. Sure, with the benefit of hindsight, you could say that their worries were pointless but it's not like they could see into the future to know that. Think of it this way, when trains were invented people were scared that travelling at those speeds could do serious damage to the human body. They were very vocal about this belief and distrustful of trains because of it. True story. These days, we know that their fears were groundless but they didn't know that at the time.
