Obviously there have been major improvements over the past 80 years, but that's still considered the first neural network. The need for multi-layer neural networks was recognized by 1969, but the knowledge of how to do that took awhile to be worked out.
Fun fact, the Perceptron is basically the first machine learning AI, and it was invented in 1943. It took a long time and many advancements in hardware before it became recognizable as the AI of today, but it's hardly a new idea.
I think Overwatch 1 at it's peak could be compared to CS2.
Right, that's why the collective play amount is ~140k when the steam daily is only ~30k
That's honestly not that good, when games like CS2 are regularly pulling 2million+.
According to 3rd party websites (that may not have accurate estimates), Overwatch 1 had between 600k-1mil peak concurrent players through a lot of 2020/2021. One of those same websites now says that OW2 had about 140k peak players today when combining all players on all platforms. So it would seem there's been a huge drop in players.
They have a 1 time $6 payment for GoG access, which isn't too bad. I'm loathe to agree to a subscription payment for anything else these days, but a one-off payment isn't too bad if it's something I'll use.
Innoextract sounds pretty good, I'll definitely keep that in mind for non-steam games in the future.
Sounded like they ran fine from the moment the updated version was released. Glad valve is finally getting them updated, that meme about how doom will run on everything except steam deck was a little painful.
I've heard of it fixing various sleep related audio bugs. Overall it's a great plugin and I recommend it to everyone.
For clarity, my understanding is that landlords in the game basically live rent free. Some of the buildings spawn with low numbers of apartments, so if you had a building with two apartments, 1 would be a landlord and the other tenet would pay x2 the rent.
So effectively they're changing from having local landlords to instead paying rent to a distant landlord.
AI is starting to get really smart
At least we won't have to expect extermination of the human race to happen quickly.
