I still find in general super creepy that anti cheat systems (most of them) insist on having kernel access instead of using, you know, actual statistics and machine learning.

You'd really think anti cheat might be the one thing AI is actually good at.

Anticheat is pattern recognition, it’s not Ai as in LLM.

One of the biggest problems right now is AI=LLM which could not be further from the truth

Finally, someone had to say it. THANK YOU!!!

Which is what ML is extremely good at. Humans too, but we can't process data quickly enough.

I think there'd be reasonable worry about false positives though. Imagine you just have some weird playstyle (maybe due to disability) that you got really good at, so the AI classifies you as abnormal and flags you as a cheater. Much less likely when you're looking for the software instead.

Also it's probably just way more expensive.

I still think the real solution to cheaters has to be to legally go after the cheat sellers. The one time I would like for laws to protect some capitalist interests (since cheaters definitely hurt the bottom line of mp game publishers) it's not happening.
