Agreed. As a person that has released music, I hate this guy and would like the book thrown at him and anyone mass releasing shitty AI music.. It might not be a big corpo doing it, but it's still fucking creatives over.

Surely it's coming. We have The music publishing cartel vs Suno already.

Exactly, there are blatant examples of direct plagiarism spat out by these LLMs.

Exactly. Also, that sort of efficiency is a myth because people can't sustain that workload for more than the time required to upskill and get out of that company. You lose good people with knowledge of your operation doing what Elon does.

On the one hand, government jobs are known to be very cushy compared to industry where the harsh realities of late-stage capitalism are in full swing.

On the other hand, Elon is in no position to fix the government inefficiency problem. He would call for some ridiculously stupid and uninformed decisions to be made based upon his business ethos of nuking (potentially important) things and starting from scratch.

Beautiful architecture and streets. A lot of homelessness and rats everywhere though. Bakery food/breads were fantastic. We found people to be a lot more welcoming in rural France than in Paris.

Didn't go during Olympics, this was pre-COVID.

I wonder where they trained the AI model to answer such a question lol.

Financially, I'm not sure if you could say that starfield or fallout 4 was a failure.. Look at steamcharts player counts as an indication. All time peak concurrent players:

Skyrim: 90,000

Skyrim SE: 79,000

Fallout 4: 470,000

Fallout 76: 72,000

Starfield: 330,000

Sure skyrim has sold on many platforms and over time likely has sold the best, but you can't say that starfield and fallout 4 were commercial failures. Starfield being on game pass day 1 means the real concurrent numbers would be enormous.

I've not played starfield and agree it looks like shit, but TES VI is likely going to sell gangbusters to mainstream audiences given how much Skyrim broke into the mainstream.

I agree with you that Bethesda isn't what they used to be with TES Morrowind - Skyrim era and desperately need to get rid of that engine. But for the metric that truly matters, sales, I don't know what it would take for TES VI to fail.

Indeed, clearly an inferior OS.

All post-COVID tech companies in a nutshell.

AI seems to be getting used as the latest way to keep VCs still interested in a world of higher interest rates and otherwise tighter corporate spending.

It's just a shame that some of the biggest of those issues appear to be fundamental game mechanics.
