    so will this help with games how will this help with games
    
    
    We need an AI agent's ai can reason code program script map. So games break it down and do art assets do long term planing. Better reason so it can do a game rather than write it out. Or be able to put those ideas into
    
    
    
    REALITY. And maybe being able to remember and search the ent conversation needed for role
    playing and making games.

    2027 will be a pivotal year. Although things may not move as fast or as smoothly as AI companies hope. Would love to see some real, practical insights on how to prepare (one that doesn't depend on reasonable governance, that's likely not happening).

    • @charles_wu
      @charles_wu  3 місяці тому +2

      Ironically re: how to prepare, I uploaded the full pdf to notebooklm and asked how we can prepare from a financial, health, and safety perspective if Leopold's future were to be realized, and this is what I got:
      The document focuses heavily on the rapid advancement of artificial intelligence (AI) and does not contain information about financial, health, and safety preparations for individuals. However, the source does suggest these preparations may be futile or unproductive in light of its predictions:
      ● The coming changes are of such magnitude that they will likely render most traditional preparations moot.
      ● The speed of AI development-and the societal and global changes it is predicted to bring-will be far more rapid and unpredictable than anything experienced before.
      That said, the source does suggest people who understand the vast changes to come are investing heavily in Nvidia (NVDA) stock. You may want to independently verify this information.
