I doubt our AI superintelligence overlord will judge a human by their WoW achievements or Xbox gamerscore, but I'm not taking any chances.

Old school dungeon role playing at its finest. Whatever you can imagine... there's a table for that :) Best tiers are going fast, and it's already tripled its goal the first day. Back Adventurer Conqueror King System II by Autarch on @Kickstarter kickstarter.com/projects/aut…

Machine learning can be explainable, and human understandable -- here's one way.
Neural networks are powerful and here to stay, but there's another #AI framework gaining prominence: instance-based learning (IBL). Diveplane CEO @solidfog explains how companies can use IBL for explainable, trustable, and auditable AI in @TechCrunchtechcrunch.com/2023/08/24/ma…

“If you're not using that kind of [traceable] technology, and you need to be able to trace the decision, you’re using the wrong tech,” - Mike Capps (@solidfog), CEO @DiveplaneAI on using black box models to decide high stakes decisions at #EmTechNext

Thrilled to see the focus from @FoxNewsAI on educating the public on AI and the seismic challenges ahead. Check it out, they have a full AI landing page. (As a technoliberal in a lefty family, though, please don't send this article to my mom ;)

There's room for two superhero TTRPGs! While you wait for heroic Marvel, go grab this amazing, physics-based system. I've been playing weekly for a year and the system has *everything* covered.

And yes, there's more than two good superhero RPGs. I love 'em all. Champions, Mutants & Masterminds, you name it. But Marvel and Ascendant are the two that I've worked on ;)

Had good fun speaking about AI at #OODACon. Big day of defense, economy, innovation, disruption. Almost no one* brought up extistential threats, so that's a win. *everyone
Rapid-fire brilliant insights on #AI, R&D, #war, exponentially-quickening pace of #innovation, great discussion with @sgourley & @solidfog. Thanks to @bobgourley & @MattDevost for a great day.

Years ago I spoke about how running @Wizards_DnD campaigns prepared me to design videogames. Today I can lecture on how designing videogames prepared me to co-design a TTPRG system for the most awesome IP in the multiverse :) marvel.com/rpg

I started hiring for the Army Game Project in 2000, and couldn't say what for :) After launching at E3, we shipped the first Unreal Engine 2 game, on Independence Day 2002. Made lifelong friends, a few who came w/me to Epic. Amazing that AA:Ops ran for 20 years! /salute to devs
#AmericasArmy Soldiers, please see our follow-up on the recent shutdown news. forum.americasarmy.com/discu… THANK YOU for your dedication and continued support throughout these years - #HOOAH!

In Gears of War, when a buddy accidentally shoots Marcus in the back, he growls "same team!" See below on Chinese PLA's purchasing of AI tech, incl auto targeting, etc. Includes direct purchase from companies funded by US VC's. Same team🤬
⚡️ We know the Chinese military is betting big on AI. But how exactly will it use the technology? To find out, my team @CSETGeorgetown spent a year analyzing 66,000 of the People’s Liberation Army’s purchase records. Here is what we found (1/17): cset.georgetown.edu/publicat…
