Having something suggest networking opportunities doesn’t sound like the worst, but only if it was suggestions in their own section of the app (and not bombarding you with notifications about it either). This implementation is truly god awful and I can’t believe anyone thought this was a good idea.
Fun thread! Handhelds are great, wish they still made them in smaller form-factors though. They are getting chonky!
Something about being able to pause/suspend anytime and resume without the whole dance of booting console, then game, then load game etc. just for a bite-sized gaming session. Handhelds also has fewer distractions.
Dusting off my Switch to play games like Persona 5 Royal on it has rekindled my love for good games and made me more averse to live service games. For the longest time I have felt like playing without some externally visible progression (rank, achievements, cosmetics etc.) was “pointless”. The longer I stay away from those kinds of games the more I am enjoying excellent narrative experiences in real games again rather than running around with checklists or playing virtual slot machines.
Stardew Valley I love on PC, but I have without a doubt racked up most of my hours in it on Switch.
Last few playthroughs of Dark Souls 1 was great on Switch too despite lower framerate and less responsive controls.
When it comes to Persona 5, I adored it on PS4 but I didn’t get that far before I got pulled away into other things. Now I’m almost 80 hours deep on Switch and loving it. Makes me want to play the new Persona 3 and 4 remakes but I’m holding off on getting a Switch 2 and I’m not getting anywhere close to those game key cards.
NBD, just reschedule the meetings to take place in the VR Metaverse, use the blockchain to track the appointments, and afterward head to the bar on your Segway.
AI doesn’t integrate and use itself. Only a manager makes that decision. This problem rests squarely on the humans in charge who failed to vet the system before buying it.
I’ve been to a few conferences that did things like this (that predates “AI”) and it is actually a REALLY good idea that encourages people who are just there to give a talk or who are socially awkward to actually network.
The key is that it needs to only make suggestions and not actually send calendar invites. And it needs to be opt-in until at least one human says “Yeah, that is a good idea. See if Fred wants to meet some time tomorrow” and only then do the other parties get a push/email asking if they are free.
That’s fine, just have the AIs book random meetings with each other, while the humans meet for human meetings. Then bill the AI companies a full convention ticket for each AI that attended the other AIs’ meetings.
They’re clearly not doing their jobs if AI “solutions” go straight to prod without any consideration for the results it’ll yield. One would think that since it’s still code at its heart that it would still follow a well implemented CI/CD pipeline, but I guess because it’s AI that it just can’t wait. Someone else might do it first and all that.
You’re responding to a dumb joke, but anyway: A solution can run perfectly in a test environment and still be shit. It’s not really the development process that failed in this case (or even the somewhat misguided use of “AI”). The failure is fully owned by whoever thought that random strangers would like to hook up via unprompted meeting invites.
It pisses me off now that they didn’t make it a permanent release. Like, physical copies, i can maybe sort of understand. But the digital copies? I refuse to believe the server space it costed was that much extra. It sucks too because i’d argue in terms of accessibility, 3D all stars is the best way to play those games.
