Jury's out on that one!
The more situations Chloe Moretz is faced with in film, the closer SL is to creating her AI.

The bombcast referenced the story about computers writing news articles. They seemed to go out of their way not to take a cheap pop at other sites during this segment.

Today I noticed that Kotaku "logalise" their own stories - well the headlines at least. I wonder if a human editor does it or they bought themselves a robot. I think a robot could totally do Patrick's job (joke). At least the spelling would be correct.

I, for one, am glad they go to this extra effort. I was so confused by the US headline until I switched my VPN off. I originally thought a Destiny character committed violence against a beast of burden. :D

Cor Blimey Guv! If they wan' ter go full Brit then they should go all da way luv.

Destiny : The Taken King is a real fookin' cunt so far.

Actually that doesn't work as it isn't the character, but the game that they are referencing. How about

Destiny : The Taken King is the dog's bollocks so far.

I think it's a manual thing by the Kotaku UK editors, seeing as they are owned by different companies. They also correct things like some Kotaku US editors weird insistence of replacing 'female' with' women', even when it doesn't make grammatical sense.

Perfect recap question for Alex by Vinny.
I misunderstood the time for this stream and was already planning to watch it tomorrow morning before work.

55 hours in and I've finished MGSV. Eager for the spoilercast. I'm in agreement with Brad on the Bombcast that
while the idea is pretty sound, the way they go about it is really fucked. I wanna hear him go deeper on it. Jason apparently didn't like it, either. I just had to listen to at least 40 minutes of tapes the game gives you at the end just for some damn context and substance that should've been in the game itself!
I don't know if Konami is to blame for pushing it out the door or Kojima cutting corners for one reason or another, but it's a downright travesty that such a well-playing and well-thought out game is so thoroughly fucked in the narrative and structural department.

I really hope it doesn't get GOTY.
