Played a lot of warfame and world of goo today. Had an interesting problem with AI. I could not figure the best way to write the headline 'Scientists spot bugs catching bees with tools', or Scientists spot bugs using tools to catch bees' or 'Scientists spot bugs catching bees using tools' so I just settled on 'Assassin Bugs use tools to catch bees'
Warframe is getting to difficult for me. Even World of Goo 2 is too difficult for me. I think I like cozy games. I think AI will replace videogames, or at least videogames will have to incorporate AI. Like no point building without AI. The best interfaces for AR experiences are hybrid, like large tactile consoles, even something cartoonish such as Star Trek bridges or the Batcave from the 60 TV series, that are the same in cyber and meatspace.
Ordered Instamart in the evening. Poor guy was confused, I tracked him down in the darkness of the night, and gave him directions to the next address as well. I tried putting in a long address, one guy told me wow you have written in so much detail, another person praised me for writing so well, which I found a bit strange, one helpful guy finally said we have not read so much in school also. I understood how much people dont know english here and are proud of it. So I shortened it. Now they dont read the short version also, and read only half. I think I should add another line, so that I know people wont read but at least they will read a bit more than they do now.
Anyway, finetuning the Swiggy address. Telling these people follow the GPS does not work. They are genuinely going to be lost, and have weird superstitions like if you call them the GPS signal goes away. I just go downstairs to get it, and most are happy they dont have to climb four floors.
Tomorrow, I will write about Uber drivers.
