TechPowerUp:Leaked AI-Powered Game Revenue Model Foretells a Dystopian Nightmare

> The ones of most concern are the fact that the AI can discern whether a subject is female or not, and then subsequently learn their menstrual cycle based on the language they used throughout the month and then tailors that users experience in order to sell them more crap during that cycle.
Now doesn't that just sound lovely.
Well add to this the environment mapping using sound and wireless. So we give them our personal data, share our environment, share our bio-metric data. In few words one can completely reconstitute your life without asking you nothing and use these data for purpose you will never know.
The real issue as it was for BTFII, it target also children in young age. So we persecute rapist but not persecute these behaviors that totally rape the point of view and behavior of small infant. Especially if linked to any related games our children play with. If these new AI algorithm work on grown human being, their impact would go even further on infant!
At this point i would prefer my child playing with DUKE NUKEM than the actual modern smartphone/PC games!

To be fair, the Duke was superior to pretty much any smartphone game I've come across yet :P
I agree, the paradox make me smile. Hence i was said these kind of games were bad for children's. And now look were the gaming industry drive us. This blow completely my mind as gamer fan! ^^
This is pretty clearly a hoax. The slides are text-heavy and expository to an unrealistic extent (for a powerpoint anyway) and the language is closer to amateur dystopian sci-fi than a technical presentation.
That said, it is a nice encapsulation of how "A.I." may come to be viewed as a surveillance, advertising and monetization tool.
I feel there's other things that identify it as a possible hoax - the screenshots at the start, for instance, seem unfinished - but I've dealt with many powerpoint presentations over the years like this - way too many words for an overhead screen, but these sorts of presentations get shared around quite a bit with the intention of being just read on the computer screen..
Still the things explained into this presentation could be potentially true and really used. They are not too much difficult to implement in a real daily basis case. There is a lot of gaming publishers that are focusing on patenting AI algorithm to be used in modern games.
Correct. I read the slides as more of a draft technology proposal rather than a launch presentation for the product.
Telemetry, telemetry and user data mining everywhere!
