@Helldiver_M That reads exactly like a typical dumb shit Kotaku article. No wonder, because it was trained from human data. I don't know what's more shocking, that our News outlets by human is so bad we think a robot wrote it, or if the AI is that good that we think a human wrote it. Both perspectives are frightening.

Video game journalism has been crappy for a long, loooong time. You ever read pre-Ziff Davis EGM or GamePro? It's like a lobotomy in print form.

Yo I loved EGM back in the N64 era and I’m pretty sure that was Ziff Davis. Then again maybe I was lobotomized with a magazine.

Ziff-Davis EGM was pretty good. Pre Ziff-Davis EGM (the Sendai era, from 1989 to 1997) was not.
