That’s my big problem with the online mode as well. They could have actually made it fun but it’s totally unplayable because they don’t do anything about hackers while at the same time even by legitimate means giving players access to fucking sci-fi death machines.
I’m so sick of spawning in and instantly getting blown up by a flying motorcycle with infinite rockets. That’s not even fun gameplay for the person the flying motorcycle.
Oh well I’m definitely going to get the game then. I was concerned that it wouldn’t be maximally profitable for shareholders.
I don’t need to know anything about the gameplay just that someone who isn’t me will make a lot of money out of this.
They really should because the law has already decided that AI isn’t an independent entity, and is essentially just a computer program.
So whoever initiated the AI is ultimately responsible for its behavior, they can’t claim the AI malfunctioned because they chose not to bother having any human oversight, they knew that this was always a possibility and still they took responsibility for it.

You know there are people with families of the own now who were born after that meme came out, and they still use it.
Maybe the registrar holds some blame too.
Frankly everyone involved in this situation looks bad except the victim who did nothing wrong.
Funko deserves blame for using a dodgy solution that they have no real understanding of.
The brand protection partner, whatever the hell they’re called, deserves blame for being scumbags who go for the nuclear option as a first result. Knowing full well how destructive and completely disproportionate of a response that is.
The registrar deserves blame for being utterly stupid and responding to a report without doing even the most minor of investigations first. Like I don’t know, looking at the website.
No one at any point attempted to reach out to the owner of the site, they called his mother for some reason, not the actual site administrator, so they didn’t make any legitimate attempt at contact.
I honestly have no idea what the end game here was supposed to be, because there’s no way in hell that this was ever going to end other than everyone looking like complete idiots. I honestly think that just everyone involved here is just utterly incompetent.
I have never heard of this particular registrar but they’re going on my long list of registrars not to trust, alongside GoDaddy.
I wish people would stop saying this. That was a political decision from decades ago back when the internet was far smaller. It has no bearing on today where the political situation here is completely different and not only that but the internet is far larger and the ICANN are far more powerful.
Back in the 1980s they didn’t have the political clout to really be able to enforce anything. They just have to basically accept it as a fader complete, not so anymore
They wouldn’t get a court case over this. Firstly because registrars are not responsible for the content on their websites, And social media sites and other sites that allow users to post-content to them are themselves not directly responsible for the content users choose to post.
The appropriate action for a registrar is to contact the owner of the website in question, If it is getting close to the allotted time and they haven’t had a response then they take the website down. All allowable under the law without getting sued.
This registrar didn’t even bother trying to contact the site, they did not do a totally automatable and essentially free action, simply because they couldn’t be bothered.
Peter Molyneux is going to require an entire volume bound in leather at this right
There is a minimum amount of time allowable for Investigations though. It’s not very long and there is a very good argument it should be longer, but the registrar didn’t even take the time to look into the case. Obviously they didn’t, because otherwise it wouldn’t have done anything.
What I find really weird is I have a website, or had a website years ago, that someone issued a DMCA takedown to it, but it was totally fraudulent. The registrar sent me an email to say they had received the takedown request, had reviewed it, found it to be invalid, and we’re taking no further action.
They didn’t send me this email until after they’d already decided to ignore the report. Start to finish the whole thing took about 3 days. That was for some tiny irrelevant website that no one except me and a few users would have even cared if it had been taken down. Why didn’t they do the same for a massive internationally well-known website?
Not in Canada though otherwise everybody would be in prison all of the time.
The best thing about rising up in the corporate world is the increased salary. But the worst thing is the fact that these idiots start talking to you like that in person.
Where exactly was corporate council in all of this. Who on earth signed off on, “automatically taking potentially ligacious actions”?
It wouldn’t be so bad if the AI engaged with a human at some point to confirm the action was both warranted and proportionate. Nope, apparently it’s allowed to just do whatever the hell it wants, with literally zero oversight.
The problem here is that’s a weird response for them to go straight to the registrar.
If somebody posts copyrighted content on YouTube the offended party goes to YouTube don’t ask the registrar to do anything. Contacting the registrar is the last resort not the first step.
ChatGPT can’t even make me a sandwich or bring coffe
Well it doesn’t have physical access to reality
Isn’t super intelligent more the ability to think so far beyond human limitations that it might as well be magic. The classic example being inventing faster than light drive.
Simply being very intelligent makes it more of an expert system than a super intelligence.
It’s not where the car manufactured that’s important it’s where it’s designed.
Western car makers both in the US and Europe insist on making electric vehicles that are hugely high-end and out of the price range for most people. We need electric 5 seat hatchbacks.
The only moderately reasonable electric vehicle from a major Western manufacturer is the F-150 Lightning and that’s not even available in Europe because frankly it’s a stupid buy for Europeans.
Well technically we’ve had it confirmed all the way up to the PS9. Which presumably will release alongside somehow the Xbox X because Microsoft can’t name a product to save their life
