Roughly an average 10% drop in major gaming stocks, because a plagiarism machine can produce one minute of 720p, 24fps 'gameplay' at an absolutely astounding compute cost.
These people are all fucking idiots.
Therr is no universe where this even makes sense under a 'a games are streamed' paradigm.
This is like 100x to 100,000x the cost in hardware and energy, to produce a minute.
Do these fucking idiots think a game can just be wholly reinstantiated every single minute?
It actually would have made more sense to fine tune an LLM to interface with an API layer for Unity or something, to just... you know, produce an actual game?
Call that the uh, the processed training data/output condensed into a distilled an efficient piece of software, the 'local' model, if these clowns understand nothing but jargon.
I truly cannot comprehend the mind numbing level of stupidity on display here.
If that much investor money can be swayed by this utterly pitiful demonstration, then all these game stocks deserve to go to near 0, because clearly the people in charge (the investors) understand literally nothing about video games.
This is utterly asinine.
What happens if/when all of the plagiarised games start suing Google for IP infringement?
How is everyone involved at every step of this so utterly mentally impaired?
the more mentally impaired you are the more susceptible you are to chasing gains
...j-just... just gimme s-s-some gains bro, I need more GAINS!
I NEEED LINE GO UP!
I NEED IT BAD, MAN!
... you g-got any gains bro? P-please!
Most of the shareholder oligarchs who own our economy are lead poisoned boomers and this is all just their way of competing with each other for the top spots on the forbes richest people list.
... Yeah... yeah.
Yeah that pretty much is the actual answer.
Basically you don't understand. Investors sell when they think the companies will fuck shit up. That could be because they think the product is obsolete, or it could be that they think manglement is going to do dumb shit. Take your pick. Remember, it's gambling about the future, not about what's right or reasonable.
Try to apply that logic to any of Elon's stocks.
Like, I generally agree with you, but... no one can possibly do any kind of analysis on TSLA, and Elon, and conclude anything other than:
Everything about this is completely insane and makes no sense.
Oh hi I'm Elon Musk, my car company only exists because of tax credits for EVs, and I just spent a squagillion dollars to elect a guy who will cancel those.
Oh, also, we build C3POs now, not cars.
Even though they're decades behind already existing humanoid robots, being built by another car company (Hyundai), who acquired an actually ground breaking an revolutionary robotics firm (Boston Dynamics).
Also, please given Elon a squagillion dollars, to incentivize him to keep performing his super duper CEO magic.
... fucking what? He's an actual madman, not a suave and calculating Bond villain, he's a fucking lunatic!
... Does any of this not qualify as 'management is going to do dumb shit?'
(also i am not sure if 'manglement' was an intentional joke or unintentional misspelling, but that will now be the word I am using in place of 'mismanagement', hahah!)
The expert systems that the console manufacturers supply to developers can already do this sort of thing.
... I didn't downvote you, but uh, no, I really don't think they can.
I think you are confusing an semi-automable asset pipeline that adheres to various kinds of standards for... a whole lot more than that.
I'd really like to see any evidence that what you seem to be describing actually exists.
Because if it does, and is or has been in widespread use for any amount of time prior to now... well very broadly, it would seem to be hurting more than helping things.
