If you sit long enough by the river, you will watch the corpse of your enemy float by...

Google using AI summarization fed via search dovetailing into youtube links will cut Games Journobloggers out of the loop.

There is no function for propagandist summary sites in the age of AI.

In order to summarize something, there needs to be a source, does it not?

And in the age of AI, when AI is controlled by Big Tech propagandists, the need for dime-store propagandists will indeed diminish, as they will have been supplanted by automated and centralized propagandists. ;)

100% agree.

While I will read the obituary of games journalism with relish, the centralized power of Google which replaces them will remain hostile to my/our interests. A battle ends; the war goes on.

What would be fascinating though (and Google actually could do it) is take all the content related to a game from every individual interacting with it on YouTube and come up with a brief review.

Yup, there are plenty of data services training AI to translate text to speech utilising various accents, intonations and inflections. This is almost certainly the future of such services, where they will have the AI transcribe video content, collate user generated content that meets their "sensitivity" standards, and then summarise based on the collected information.

If google is the only entity with AI then the world will become a woke/communist propaganda hellhole.

Look at how biased google Bard/ChatGPT already are.

We need trustworthy open source alternatives on our home hardware.

I agree.

I'm very much with Vox Day and Torba on this issue. The anointed will mentally castrate their AI, so that it cannot speak the truths they consider blasphemy. And because their AI will be retarded, we will need to field our own to properly utilize the technology.

The cloud is (and has always been) someone else's computer. Google wants to be a monopoly on information, not just ads and search, and will use ham-fisted AI to push in that direction.

They cannot be relied on.

Big AI is useless and begging to be replaced:
