The only time I think it's bad is when people use it to harm the industry illegally sharing content. To me hacking or modding a product to enhance it's capabilities doesn't seem all that bad as long as it isn't abused.

Ex. Hacking a drive to read read all copy protected disk isn't harmful if it's used for personal backup. If the drive is hacked/cracked and used to mass produce copies for all your buddies it is.

Hackers enhance products for fun and entertainment. Their goal is to improve things. Crackers break into secure software or hardware for illegal uses or personal gain.

The real problem is getting everyone to understand the difference between the two.

But in their rush to flee, Wall Street confused "playable environments" with actual video games, ignoring the technology's hard limits while threatening the human creativity that makes games worth playing. As the industry faces a future of automated mediocrity driven by shareholder demands, the panic reveals a deeper truth: investors aren't betting on better games, just cheaper ones.

Duplicate story. Or does Christopher just remove xbox stories that are similar?

Humans have been developing things to simplify jobs since the beginning.
AI is going to remove the human factor from the job, but it can never replace all jobs that need a human factor.
I wish I could see the end of the story. What is the end, end goal, final piece, etc.
Is it a world run by machines, do humans live in a free world, does a dictator finally have an robot army, do humans finally free of working forever, does ChatGPT create an army to defeat Gemini., so many possibilities …
