Hypixel CEO on Roblox and AI in gaming
(midwest.social)
HytaleNot directly related to Hytale but I thought this was a pretty good read. We already know most of this but it's nice to hear the perspective of somebody that is actually in those investor meetings and hearing them talk about AI and replacing creators. Very disgusting stuff.
Hytale is excellent. Little light on content right now as it's EA, but man is it polished.
Btw it’s illegal to lie to investors
But not devs.
Yep, shareholders technically own the company so the board running it has to tell them the real truth
It is nice to see Hytale is focused on the gamer's experience and making the best game they can rather than trying to maximize profits.
For anyone in the pure "fuck AI" crowd, I link this, just so they can be informed that Simon isn't pure anti-AI.
Personally I still enjoy and support Hytale.
But I know AI is a hot topic, so there's for anyone who wants to know.
People who can't find nuance in this topic aren't worth humoring. Instantly describing a complex image into reality is cool, actually. Calling it theft is deeply silly when the preferred alternative is an unaltered screenshot of some popular cartoon. It's dead easy to hate on these specific companies and capitalism in general without kneejerk bad-faith harassment.
Yeah there are lots of people who are in the “we shouldn’t replace jobs with this but it exists so who cares if I do a meme about it”
If I knew there was an image gen that was trained ethically and was run locally? I’d be less inclined to complain about memes, but you are basically doing micro transactions for the Nazis when you do this.
I dunno I guess if you haven’t thought about it deeply then you wouldn’t come to this conclusion, but the “hey stop being a crybaby online I know you’re wrong because you are annoying” kinda has a troubling tech bro “stop being a woke” attitude. Simon should probably exercise a little restraint and have a deep think about what’s really happening here.
