Cross posting from another thread: 17 games fully or partially reversed and ported to the web by one very capable dude in a few weeks with frontier and open weight models. He also did this thing where he “spliced” different game concepts and turned WoW into an FPS: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=49652089

In case you mistake him for an “AI booster”, you should see this guy’s other posts, he is extremely critical of the AI frontier labs and Tech Bros and this whole AI bubble.

But he is also a very experienced game developer, and under his control the latest models have pulled off these crazy feats. What TFA is the analysis of a domain expert and what it means for the industry.

Just so you know, the other submission you linked here got killed (i.e. is not visible without showdead on).
orangedog•42m ago
Why was it killed? That sounds very interesting.

Does anybody have a link to it? I can't find it on the blog.

Jtsummers•29m ago
Everything to linkedin gets killed, apparently.

https://news.ycombinator.com/from?site=linkedin.com

They're all [dead] (you'll need "showdead" on in your profile).

keeda•19m ago
Whoa TIL. Too much low-quality stuff being cross-posted from LinkedIn?
Jtsummers•17m ago
Lots of would-be business influencer types post (or posted? I've never paid much attention to it) on there. There are a number of other sites that are also auto-killed by the system. Sometimes those submissions will come back to life, but it has to be found by a mod or vouched for by enough users.

It works for me in an Incognito window, but YMMV.
