    Those two things are linked. I’m a frequent Economics Explained viewer, and the old comparison is that 1 accountant with a spreadsheet program can do what 5 accounts could do without one. If you only need the amount of productivity that that one accountant with a spreadsheet can output, that means you don’t need four of your accountants anymore.

      To use the accountant exemple AI right now or at least the way corp seem to use it is like asking someone without any accountant or spreadsheet knowledge to do the job of 5 accountant sure it might work but for how long and how many accountant you gonna need to repair and clear the problem later but that part don’t interest them only short sight profit is important

        If they want to put out poor quality products in pursuit of short term profit, they can deal with long-term consequences as they lose their customers’ trust. This game is reviewing quite well at the moment, and most of the ways we’re fearing AI will be used will result in poor quality products. I’d argue Ubisoft has been putting out poor quality products for a long time, and even this game won’t be available in a form that I can consume it due to the short-term deal they made with Epic.
