Descent turns 30 years old today! This innovative 3D shooter will actually play on a 486 with 4MB of RAM - talk about efficient memory usage! (I tried it)

Have you noticed how automation tends to get us working for the companies e.g. ATM self-cashier, Self Scan - teller. Could AI outsource the service aspect of companies to customers. What used to be a simple chat with a skilled person using a system, to you and AI.

The End of Banks Banks are a kind of legal criminal enterprise. They create money in the form of bank deposits that are many times the cash they hold. They then lend out those deposits to earn interest. If you or I did that, we would be put in jail. There will be a massive disruption of the banking system soon. Within a few years, humanoid robots will be able to build houses at just 10% of the cost of construction today. The price of existing housing will drop even more. People will default on mortgages and the banks will collapse. Instead of giving banks another bailout, we could use the opportunity to eliminate them altogether. Banks exist today because they provide a safe place to keep money, and because people need mortgages and loans. As an alternative, governments could hold cash on deposit to keep it secure. Mortgages will become unnecessary when real estate becomes cheap enough to buy through installments or rent-to-own plans. Banks add instability to the economy since they are founded on fake money that can disappear, as it did in the subprime loan collapse of 2007. If cash were the only form of money in the economy, such collapses could not occur. We would have a more stable economy and a better world without banks.

Saw this image and though does any arms race where the weapons get more expensive hit a point where it gets too expensive to have a war? e.g. Cold War -> Berlin Wall Collapse. And what happens when smaller cheaper drone weapons make it affordable again?

The first completely AI-developed video game could go viral in the next 3–6 months. Think about that: • Months of work → hours • $2M production → $1.5K • Story, graphics, mechanics… all AI The gaming industry is about to experience its “Napster moment.” Human creativity won’t vanish but the monopoly on game creation just did. Are we ready for a world where anyone can spawn a AAA game with a prompt?
