If only his cautionary words about the risks of AI software development had been heeded, he would have been a big name in the never-ending dumbeat about the "sotware crisis" for the last 50 years!

Agreed, and centralized coordination is a HUGE simplifying assumption to the task at hand.

Ive not yet played NMS, but exploration games are a thing that attracts a certain demographic.

For example, I hate the mission aspect of games like Fallout, GTA etc, but love just exploring the worlds - seeing what is over the next horizon etc. I havent played a multiplayer computer game in more than 15 years at this point,

The complaining is rote at this point in the stages of grieving: "that's was never considered 'intelligence' anyways!' The thing we now care (and always did) care about is whatever AI is currently NOT doing because we have souls, just not quite all those dummies at Church used to say!!"

How do you see the future of gaming? Interacting with AI agents with per-programmed personalities and responses to everything? Pick you dialog from a list of 4 choices still? It's not going to be like that any more.

Depends entirely on the numbers and whether those resources are scarce in that place. If the datacenter ends up funding the expansions, and then the community make a profit every month forerever on supplying those utilities, it's a win.

"Past performance is no guarantee of future returns" applies to any recorded dataset.

Not to recorded datasets, particularly. For example, that's the reason to think the sun will rise tomorrow morning - it always has.

When I think about AM radio now, I think about how Alex Jones was successfully sued for $99 bazillion for saying AM radio stuff. Where I grew up, Rush was always to be found on a channel or two.

So why isnt it mandated for homes and all devices that receive radio currently?

Why is my car the only thing that *has* to receive AM?

This is another bullshit “I have a hobby horse and Im going to fucking ride it at everyone elses expense” political move.

Depends on "your idea" - was it exclusively yours, does it even constitute an "idea" by that point? I took a tour of Motorola and made a pre-service-launch phone call on Iridium in 1998. SatComms hasn't been an "idea" for many decades, it's a big area that advances with thousands of new ideas every year.

Any reason to disbelieve it or the benefits? Or just emotionally-centered anti-AI-sentiment?

Well if people are successfully blocking data center construction, their objections are a 'factual' problem for big tech. But people are just going to switch to complaining about blocking out the stars.

In LLMs you usually use a parameter-specific learning rate algorithm (e.g. ADAM/W) that uses momentum (gradient history). https://ancillary-proxy.atarimworker.io?url=https%3A%2F%2Fdev.to%2Fshrsv%2Fadam-and-...

That's the point, it's getting hard to find specific thinking tasks / games at which AI doesn't dominate people. Now there is one fewer known example.
