Crazy. It had a meteoric rise.

I guess CWA is the one to use now. In a way I'm glad the space will have only a single major player.

Ah cool, I'm not surprised. The Skyrim modding community is insane.

I think it could be cool for background NPC dialogue in big open RPGs like Skyrim. Imagine if townsfolk could have realistic conversations and interactions like bartering over goods, etc. Nothing major or plot-dependent, obviously. Just something more natural than a handful of repeated, scripted and prerecorded phrases.

I would compare it to ray-tracing. Ray tracing means the artists don't have to plan out every single light beam, and the result is actually more realistic than if they had. A tactfully used LLM could mean they don't have to script out every line of background dialogue and also achieve a more realistic result.

Damn 99% of the time someone says not to use an open source product it's because of some obscure drama unrelated to the actual program.

But in this case the dev appears to not just be using AI code (not great but debatable) but using mostly AI code and using AI to reply to bug reports. Not something the average person wants to be running in a live environment.

I haven't used Booklore but the excitement around it was nudging me there. I think I'll stick with CWAs slower rollout.

That's not a reason to consider CWA unsafe

New Republic is definitely left leaning but they are typically factual (citation). This is not their typical fare.

The headline is misquoting him, the full quote is:

“Well, because we all agree that it’s a tragedy having the school hit, and we all agree now for an investigation,” Fetterman said. “What I don’t agree with the rest of my colleagues in the House is that it’s a war of choice, or it’s dumb, or all the things my colleagues have described, you know, this operation. I think it’s a good thing, and I support that.”

Still glaringly stupid, but the headline makes it seem like he's in denial it happened. He didn't say the words ~~"leftist" or~~ "craze"

Edited for accuracy!

Labubus are basically gambling for kids. I'm not sure they're sending the message they want to be, here.

Appropriate franchise considering it's where Google got the "Nexus" name.

My friend told me recently about TizenTube which is a youtube app with adblock/sponsorblock for Samsung TVs
