They are based in Kyiv and the team moved away from UA. If they were based in the Eastern part of the country, the game would have been in development hell forever.

These people, like Musk, think laying on a couch with a pen in your hand pondering about random shit to be hard work. That's where they come up with this kind of BS. That and being from a higher cast and never having worked a single honest day in his life and making a fortune out of corruption and networking.

"We expect Pro implementations to improve over time, and the first party Sony titles we've seen in the pipeline (Horizon Zero Dawn, Days Gone) looks simply sensational, but it may be some time before developers fully get to grips with the new hardware. But on the flipside, even in the here and now, even with so many different high resolution mode variations in the titles we've looked at so far, the bottom line is clear. Not much more money is buying a whole lot more power."

The PS4 pro had a much more compelling price position, however, the landing was pretty much the same.

Games not in the list of enhanced titles are not enhanced by the PS5 pro.

People who do not realize this are the same room temp IQ people who bough a PS5 pro.

I understand what you mean, and also understand the nihilistic stance, however, the same way humans don't exist in a separate plane, the selfception and empathy toward others (which is not unique to us) allows a more than zero sum interpretation of art. Naturally the technical part can be reproduced by machines but the metaphysical part cannot. What becomes interesting is the notion that the metaphysical can be created post-hoc, which puts us squarely in the same situation as other poster wrote by quoting the passage of "The man in the high castle".

Value is a human construct. In absolute terms, nothing has value, in practical terms, a bottlecap can be the most valuable item in the world. What attributes value to things is the human condition, remove the human and you have a tool, perhaps.

"In short, it appears that the “more human than human” phenomenon in poetry is caused by a misinterpretation of readers’ own preferences. Non-expert poetry readers expect to like human-authored poems more than they like AI-generated poems. But in fact, they find the AI-generated poems easier to interpret; they can more easily understand images, themes, and emotions in the AI-generated poetry than they can in the more complex poetry of human poets."

AI writes poems for dummies and dummies like it. Fin

Otherwise, purposefully chosing less popular poems also biases the study towards poems of lower appeal from the human poets.

Sony funded and founded the studio, however, sony is not a monolithic abstract entity, within the organisation there are people who make decisions. Whoever made the decision to produce Concord as a premium game instead of F2P needs to get their head examined. Also, most in-house developed games at sony get very little oversight from corporate other than the occasional vertical slice demo.

What the Sony gaming division needs is to pivot back to filling their roster with Japanese and European talent, the california move is resulting in overwhelming enshitification. Holst is up to his head in shitty US office politics and career driven useless MBAs that are ruining the company from the inside out by focusing on abstract metrics and driving the generational know how away from the company. They need to GTFO of San Mateo, Yesterday!

As much as corporate is cancer, PlayStation is famously one of the most hands off owners in the industry. Concorde failed because it tried to emter a saturated market filled with F2P with a premium option that was underbaked and had nothing new to offer. Tale as old as time, shit, just from the top of my head I can cite lawbreakers from Cliffy or Blink. Both concord and lawbreakers had excellent gunplay and promising mechanics, but in a world everything else is free, why would the typical audience of these games shift to a new option while paying more?

Whoever greenlit this needs to be fired and have their head examined.
