Unity CEO says an upcoming Beta will allow people to "prompt full casual games into existence"
Article very worth reading so I will only quote the
great comments in this one:
a lot of people reject everything made by AI, now many people will see any game made with Unity and think: oh no, it was made by AI... and refuse to play the game.
Congratulations Unity.
Built-in asset flip generator.
I think it’s great. We will get exponentially more games to choose from, and fewer people will be able to play them due to computer parts becoming constantly more expensive in the middle of a shaky economy. Give it a few years and demand will have been driven to the ground while offer skyrockets. Hopefully that’s enough to kill the AAA segment 🤣
Regarding that last comment, there is another good article below.
For me the fun of programming is to learn stuff, to think about how to do a thing, how to organize the code, how to solve problems. If a LLM is doing all of that for me and I just check what it generated, that's just a huge part of the fun taken from me.
That's even before considering hallucinations, errors and the ecological and economical impact.
I really can't wait for the overhype to die off and the levels of use of LLMs coming back down to actually reasonable and useful.
From GPU to RAM, to SSD, now to HDD
"use AI or get left behind"
and now everyone is being force to be left behind
lmao
Prepare for HDD availability trouble as they're getting sold out too
Component shortages are increasing thanks to the AI boom, and if you were thinking you could fall back on traditional HDDs - you would be wrong.
I know it's basically bad news after bad news right now, but that is the unfortunate reality. SSD prices are skyrocketing, RAM prices have become completely ridiculous, we've seen multiple hardware delays due to it all, and stock shortages, and it's just all thoroughly rubbish right now for consumers.
Read the article:
Is it at least still worth it to run uneconomic Hive nodes on uneconomic hardware? - due to the rise in hardware prices and simultaneously fall in Hive prices thanks to whale and witness circlejerking and therefore destroying the incentives
Classic case of:
It will work until it won't.
especially with these destroyed incentives + low hive prices + high hardware prices due to AI -> therefore no chance as node operator to become economic, even as whale witness circlejerk, let alone as new hive node operator
