This is how all demos used to be. If the author/publisher of the ai prompt wasnt born less than 20 years ago they would know this
Used to be?
Even as early as a few years ago, game demos at E3 were extremely controlled environments to avoid the journalist player crashing the game.
I have a hard time even figuring out what the issue here is? it'd be one thing if the first iPhone shipped and was riddled with bugs and promised/demoed features weren't there, but that wasn't the case. Launched more or less rock solid, and iPhoneOS 1.0 (as it was called then) was far from the buggiest wide release.
Yeah. Am I supposed to be upset by this? Fuggen thing worked when it shipped. Are people angry that the marketing campaign started before every single engineering problem was solved? Why?
I'm not upset at all. Because I understand. But maybe they are upset they promised something they didn't know they could deliver.
Because they’ve never solved a complex problem, or accomplished anything that took the conscious coordination of multiple people.
That is easily the dumbest thing I’ve read today.
Used to be? Why did I just demo a Potemkin village and get drunk in the middle of the week?
