    Most of the time physically, it is just a code to activate it on steam.

    On PC the pirates says, what you can do with it. On the console the company says if you own this movie/game you BOUGHT or not. ( See the Playstation movie “incident” where Sony removed many movies some people BOUGHT, but at least the backlash made Sone reconsider the BS they wanted to pull of. )

    P.S. Yeah, yeah i know. “It iSnT BuYiNg YoU OnLy PuRchAsE a LiCenSe tO ThE PrOdUcT” But still its such b.s. that you declare it as BUYING instead of RENTING, Sony have them on their neck of the console gamers, because piracy or third party stores are not existing so they can pull of those stunts.











  • Rooki@lemmy.worldtoTechnology@lemmy.worldAre there any genuine benefits to AI?

    AI has some interesting use cases, but should not be trusted 100%.

    Like github copilot ( or any “code copilot”):

    • Good for repeating stuff but with minor changes
    • Can help with common easy coding errors
    • Code quality can take a big hit
    • For coding beginners, it can lead to a deficit of real understanding of your code
      ( and because of that could lead to bugs, security backdoors… )

    Like translations ( code or language ):

    • Good translation of the common/big languages ( english, german…)
    • Can extend a brief summary to a big wall of text ( and back )
    • If wrong translated it can lead to that someone else understands it wrong and it misses the point
    • It removes the “human” part. It can be most of the time depending on the context easily identified.

    Like classification of text/Images for moderation:

    • Help for identify bad faith text / images
    • False Positives can be annoying to deal with.

    But dont do anything that is IMPORTANT with AI, only use it for fun or if you know if the code/text the AI wrote is correct!
