Facebook and Instagram introduce AI bot ‘user’ accounts Hey Facebook, you ok there? Meta plans to roll out generative AI (genAI) characters on Facebook and Instagram this year in an effort to boost user engagement. Also, they apparently also deleted these accounts after the backlash, with some excuse about it being a "test product" and that it was run by humans on the backend. You know it will come back though. These companies have wasted too much time and money on this AI garbage to turn back now. But one, I don't know why they need to do this, these…
Kazinga

Kazinga

Over the New Years holiday, after a failed attempt at Tripoley, we switched to a game called Kazinga. Funny enough, like Tripoley, it also uses chips, though not for betting.

Lauren Mayberry – Vicious Creature

Probably my most anticipated album for this year, it felt like it had ended up delayed and delayed. I was feeling pretty hyped over a year ago, during the initial tour, and managed to keep that hype going pretty strong, thankfully. Being hyped doesn't always make bias though, I have had plenty of albums I was excited for completely fizzle out. This is not one of those. If I have any issue with this album, and its not a big one because its something a LOT of albums suffer from these days, its the lack of overall cohesion. Every track…

What I’ve Been Playing – Mobile Pixel Games Edition

Things have been really heavily mobile gaming focused lately. I suppose its also worth mentioning, sometimes, often times, there are games that I don't mention at all. Like when I spent ten minutes on some Steam game that was meh. Or the CAT CEO game I played for like, a day. Games I am omitting this week because I barely played them… A Godzilla Racing game.
