Ah but the thing is, the sources it finds are themselves wrong. They're talking about different things. If it finds the right sources, the information is most likely pretty good.

It's entirely possible that this could still be tuned somehow, but the way it is now, I wouldn't trust anything that comes out of it unless I know enough to verify the output myself, meaning it's pretty useless to laymen (which is whom a "veracity" bot would be for)

I like using AI for coding (no, I don't blindly commit massive features), but any time I ask it questions that don't have super clear-cut answers obvious to the layman from a quick google search, it tends to give "good enough" answers which are actually "nowhere near".

Go ask it (well, really, google search) something to do with tuning an Audi 3.0 tdi ASB or BMK engine and it'll think you have a nice Garrett turbo that's easy to build hybrids from and a weak CP4 pump that can implode on you and take out the entire fuel system... Whereas you actually have a weak ass BorgWarner turbo that can't support bigger internals and a super strong CP3 pump because it was shamelessly using forum threads about the newer versions with the 4 digit codes (CDYA, CASA, etc) as the source.

These are the things you easily know when you've either read a lot of forum threads, or peeked under the hood of one of these engines. But most AI tools' web search tends to just look at the first threads it finds and deem that good enough.

Anthropic is only useable within a subscription. Once you hit that limit, you pay like 10x more per token. Fuck that.

I haven't played the older games much, but I can definitely tell you Vice City was woke, San Andreas was woke, IV was woke, V was woke.

I don't understand why you'd want them to change now. Clearly the previous games were successful.

But like seriously, go back to the existing games. Listen to the radio stations, both the ads and the talk shows. Perhaps check out some missions' plots.

They make fun of conservatives, cults and American society in general. They ALSO make fun of a lot of things and people that aren't conservative, but the political right rightfully gets hit more.

I don't entirely agree with you there. If it's been a long time between two installments, you generally want to replay the old one first and it's nice to have the option to play a remastered version if it's been done well.

would it have really killed the gta/fallout franchise owners to spend a few bucks to create a half-assed in between title?

That kills the hype for the next game because everyone goes "oh they've lost it", meaning possibly more work for less money if the highly anticipated game sells less because of it.

Then they'll just report to the insurance that you turned it off and also report all the sensor data anyway.

And you can just rip out the antennas for the telemetry and that won't magically make your safety systems stop working.

You can switch off the safety systems if you want to, but don't pretend you're doing it for privacy reasons.

Yeah... If the Qashqai was under 20k €, it would perhaps be acceptable. But essentially, base model, you're paying 30k€ for a shitty FWD hatchback that has comparable fuel economy to my more spacious and heavy 20 year old wagon. Which has about twice the power. And all-wheel drive. And will last much longer, if maintained*.

The last noteworthy Nissans IMO were the GT-R and the Leaf. The GT-R ended its 18 year production run (yes, 18 years of a single model) last year and the Leaf has been outclassed by other cheap EVs for years now.

I also drove the Armada when I was in the US a few years ago. That's supposed to be their flagship, the big bad SUV. Sure it had a V8 with a nice sound, but at like 50k miles or 80k ish kilometers, it was already falling apart...

Things were made worse when they decided to partner up with Mitsubishi and acquired a large stake in that company. Another dying company that hasn't made anything noteworthy in decades and closed down production of their iconic models. Neither company has innovated in any meaningful way lately. No real advancement in engines, transmissions, etc...

*Knew someone with the previous gen Qashqai. Less than 10 years and 200k km and the engine was considered toast.

That lane keep assist could actually be making your car more dangerous since it can make mistakes but it gives you a false sense of security and makes you less alert. That's different from something like automatic braking that doesn't change your perception because it isn't actively doing anything most of the time

Nissan is a decaying company and has been for decades now. They stopped making cars people wanted in the mid 00s and don't make reliable cars like the other Japanese makes mostly do.

Lane keep assist has been around since about the 00s I believe and adaptive cruise and emergency braking since the 90s. That's not the tech that's spying on you lol

It's always a great one to play and you can even play it on the toilet now (oh wait, for like 14 years now, the mobile port is now older than the original game was when the mobile port came out)

It's had web search ability for about 2 years now. That makes it a fair bit more reliable than before except for when the source it finds is actually irrelevant. But if you're knowledgeable in the domain you're prompting about, it'll usually be easy to figure out. If you're not... Well, good luck.
