    Wow that’s depressing. I guess the main solace is that if Sony patents this then we’re unlikely to see this practice on other systems.

      A lot of times companies will patent things that they don’t necessarily intend to ever produce. Sometimes to obscure the patents that they actually do want to produce. Sometimes to reserve it in the case that they do want to later. And sometimes so that no one else can.

        This. Sony patented the stand up and say something to skip ads.

        This was a decade ago, and it’s not a thing, and won’t be a thing.

        Also, the OP article is an accessibility thing, sometimes people just can’t physically do stuff, fuck them for their disability I guess is what top level comment is saying.

          Ai is not, and cannot be considered an accessibility feature. If anything it’ll just stifle any genuine attempts to create something accessible because why bother trying to make the game fun for everyone when the ai can just play the game for you when you’re stuck

            What a horrible take.

            I get “screw ai” but this doesn’t even need to use ai to work.

            But go off I guess, people like you are just the worse. Decrying Ai, doubly so when it’s not even relevant to the story.
