Why would you ever give the benefit of the doubt to the largest ad company to ever exist whose entire existence and history depends on tracking user data. They literally just had too settle a lawsuit for tracking users when they said they wouldn’t in incognito mode.
There are plenty of little hints in Android that they want to enable tracking (eg. Bluetooth and exact location permissions being linked despite there being no real need to). Y’all need Graphene yesterday. And we all need a new total alternative since Apple is quickly chomping at the bit for ad income.
There are TONS of awesome RPGs out there to explore. lol you keep talking about creativity but nobody else seems to have that problem other than this team. This game is not creative or interesting, it’s just Horizon at home. Not to mention it hurts the reputation of other Chinese developers at a time when games like Black Myth are starting to blow up and get attention globally.
“Stifles creativity” when talking about this game is hilarious. Running defence of this game is ridiculous, it’s clearly a total ripoff which is why Sony is challenging them on it. Tencent has the budget to actually take risks and do something creative. This is just pathetic. Lots of games do what you are talking about. This isn’t one of them. It reeks of being designed in a corporate office by committee.
Yes, but that’s like saying cutting trees is the same game when it went from handsaws to today’s harvesters. Technically they do the same thing, but the scale and efficiency is a world apart.
Unlikely. Millennials are internet-native, more savvy than Gen Z if anything. They grew up with more platform changes. I think the next big divide like that is more likely when the next big medium shift happens (maybe AR?) and both millennials and Gen Z don’t jump on the train.
Yeah it’s totally worth destroying most cultures on the planet to improve water usage just long enough for the machine to find another way to waste it. Terrible take.
Unfortunately it doesn’t have to be better than the worker, we all know this sucks at most of the things it’s being touted as great at.
It just has to convince management who make decisions that it’ll save money (or that they can spin it that way) for the next quarter. That alone is enough to destroy people’s lives.
Don’t forget putting fake AI songs into playlists when they think people won’t notice. After all they already pay artists the least of all the streaming services, might as well try to avoid it all together.
Not a static target. What we consider a profile today is vastly more comprehensive than what was deemed sufficient a few decades ago. Ad networks today would put intelligence agencies back then to shame. They can always get more info. Adding biometric face data is useful to them. In a few more decades people might be talking about if Google and governments should be allowed to read your thoughts. The tech making this possible is already being developed and further along than many might expect.
There’s an argument that increasing friction can help people addicted to their tech not get pulled in. Lots of apps designed to do that popping up with hard time limits and locks the last few years. Apple and Google are definitely aware that their design choices put them in the crosshairs at schools and employers. These sort of things pass the buck back.
