ai defenders like to say "but the technology will get better" and that is true to a point. but will any of its advocates ever be curious enough to look at its output, even when it's to be projected onto a 15 meter tall screen about how cool it is? probably no.

this is cheating, but in touhou library survivors there is a tiny amount of steam coming from the teacup on patchouli's table that stops when cirno appears
i was going through my X archives and found this by @superpodsaga.com, which I qrt'd at some point years ago
so, let me bring the question back: what is the most useless piece of video game knowledge you know?

Like I don’t want to get too Like That, but this one seems quite easy and life affirming. Go write a steam review for an indie game instead.

3 years ago today, Riot Games offered me a job making more money than I ever thought I’d make in my life. I had 19 interviews over 2.5 months to get it. Partner and I were moving to LA for it. I put in notice at my job and apartment.
2 weeks later they rescinded the offer due to “headcount issues”.

Random person who plays indie games, you are the most important cog in an indie game's success.
Most gamers don't know or care that indies exist.... unless a friend tells them.
Our games succeed because you tell other people you liked our game. Word of mouth is the best marketing there is.

Players of the beta for upcoming Hoyo title Petit Planet have noticed there’s an AI chatbot featured and at least one barista NPC whose dialogue is generated by AI
Fans of their titles are defending it saying “this is a good use of AI” and “you can’t stop AI at this point.”
