Enough with the AI chatbots. They try to shove one down our throats on our computer desktops, in our browsers, in our messaging apps, now we need to be inundated while trying to game?
Ooof, poor things gonna be racist by the first 15 mins of its release.
Modern LLMs don't train during usage, they're pre-trained.
Mabe poking it to be racist within the first 15 minutes of messing with it.
Not the first time Microsoft let an Ai get racist.
Remember that time they ran the Tay.ai experiment
"Hi! I'm Clippy! It looks like you're trying to play Halo. Let's take you to the Store so you can purchase more DLCs..."
But I just want to play Halo...
"Yes, but the DLCs will make it better!"
But I'm happy with what I already have.
"Oh, look, here's the store!"
Or for the youngsters:
Honestly I miss that little metallic bastard with so many software shoving AI in our throats.
“Who’s Cortana? I don’t know who you’re talking about. Surely you’ve mistaken me for someone else. My name’s, uh, Blortana.”
Nobody: . . .
Micro$oft: AI chatbot!
Everybody: No
Micro$oft: We put it in your search engine!
Everybody: No, no, stop. We don’t want
Micro$oft: Bam! AI on your desktop! All day long!
Everybody: Stop with the AI. We don’t want it
Micro$oft: We’re naming it “Ballmer”
Everybody: That’s the worst - just NO to all of
Micro$oft: It’s in your games! Yesssss!
If you don't want it, don't use it. If nobody uses it Microsoft doesn't make money from it. If Microsoft doesn't make money from it, they won't run it.
They should call it Clippy
Maybe Clippy was more useful…
"hi, welcome to the new Xbox experience! Please drink verification can."
Kinect flashbacks
Despite its forced inclusion into the 360 it did give some of us much needed exercise! Kinect Adventures!!
Why?
Ewwwwwwww
Man, what better chatbot than Cortana for Xbox...right?
Fucken can't wait to hear it tell me how it's gonna bang my mum in 31 different ways and that I'm shit at video games.
