from a programmer/technical perspective, very cool and technically impressive. gonna have to try this myself with opus 5.5
from a consumer perspective, I don't think I fully know why yet, but I just don't have a desire to play any of these AI generated games. I'm curious what other people here think (even if we're all little bias here due to our technical curiosity - very curious what you think)? like, I generally feel that because the technical execution for something like is diminishing to zero, the half of me that likes to play and look out for new games doesn't really see why this is special or interesting? I too have ideas and can put a couple hundred dollars into opus 5.5 and get it to make an entire game. once this all becomes normalized and everything from games, to books, to movies, tv shows, etc become something that can just be generated at a good enough quality that I wouldn't know the difference between a person and machine, I guess what is the point of any of this? I feel like knowing that a machine made this instantly reminds me that literally nothing about this matters. a lot of the joy behind getting into something like a game or book was to be able to celebrate someone’s hard work and to be apart of a community and or talk to like minded people about someone’s works.
and I want to be clear, none of this is criticism towards the demo here - the demo is cool. I'm just also curious what people think the 2nd/3rd/4th order effects will be when making anything becomes so normal, that it's just another part of your day-to-day? I guess, I'm kind of searching for an answer to the question of why should I really care about this if it's all a zero sum game and a race to the bottom?
