The mind-boggling ability of AI tools to magic up an audio overview of my (still unpublished) metaphysical fantasy novel is frighteningly cool. It's basically a podcast generator.
Now how do I teach it to avoid spoilers?

For lols, I vibecoded an AI Debating Society app that lets AI agents discuss topics like how to build a utopian society, or how to fix healthcare.
But first, I need to settle a source of endless marital strife. AI Earl of Sandwich & Gordon Ramsey can surely put this one to bed.

Though I favor capitalism over the alternatives, your point is well made, and no one likes crony capitalism or stupidly decided things that are just really money grabs, power grabs without consideration of the impact.
Human's are flawed. AI is art imitating life. The best use of AI? It's not replacing people or position as some think it can and does do (those CEO's / COO's blind and wooed to reduce workforce), it's augmenting what we already do, and helps us be more accurate, if governed right.
I think another good effect of AI use (if used correctly) is that it's teaching us to better communicate, right?
Think on how generative AI chat tries it's best to accomplish what we ask. A large part of it is understanding us, even when our spelling or pronunciation is wrong, and also, to be best understood by us.
It's a tool, a mirror, a teacher, a student. A child. A weapon.
The NHS digital landscape is a Frankenstein’s monster of stitched-together tool fragments from the last decade, and it needs help.

The problem with AI isn't AI.
The problem is capitalism, greed & the competitive market.
The problem is billionaires & selfish agendas.
The problem is nation-states & tribalism.
They're all human problems.
AI is just a mirror. We need it to reflect the best of us, not the worst.

I missed this when it came out (sorry chaps), but is very pertinent to my interests as someone visibly using AI tools to make EVE-related content.
I love the idea of using AI to 'smooth the edges' of New Eden to make it feel more alive. But then you're preaching to the choir. ;)

I'm ready to self-publish my metaphysical fantasy novel that's been on the backburner since 2022.
I've given it another polish, & really want it out there to be read.
But I'm having a late wobble on trying for an agent again.
Any advice?

Now stations have a bit more flavour to them, with a quick UI refactor to create the sense you're visiting different parts of the station.

I'm really pleased with this week's #EVECrews improvements.
After fleshing out the crews, the ships themselves now have more 'character', & passengers can be transported using the new Hospitality department led by the Chief Purser.

Latest development in #EVECrews:
Now a player can generate AI Officer Portraits from Nano Banana at the click of a button.

Security Chief Torvar Helvik led a successful mid-combat boarding action on a Sansha cruiser.
Tragically, Conscript Remi Renault died in the assault, but command codes & loot to the value of 1.1m ISK were recovered.

#EVECrews now gives capsuleers the opportunity to dispatch boarding parties into tackled ships for chaos and profit.
Using specialist EVA suites, deployed squads can also scour wrecks for that Space Hulk experience.

I think my #EVECrews might be lying to me.
'It's too quiet' they said. 'We need some action.'
So they identifed a civilian structure to 'rescue'.
Ok, I said. Go for it.
Before I know it, heart rates are up, there's panic, burning, & rapid withdrawal.
I hope she was worth it.

Taking a second look at my first #vibecoding project and wondering if there's more to explore in my 'cozy' fantasy tavern card-strategy-sim experiment.

My shady frigate crew can now knock over casinos found in deadspace sites.
Using a ship module on a structure generates an 'infiltration profile' (ie. a gamelog entry), enabling the deployment of an #EVECrews away team to investigate, rescue, & rob.
Mostly rob.
#EVEOnline
Is there a relationship between @FenrisCreations' @EveOnline and @vercel's new Eve agentic AI framework?
This is going to get confusing, especially given the similar logos.

Cheers for the advice @RixxJavix, the book you recommended to support my #EVECrews project has arrived.
I would never have guessed the pod on a probe went there!
But now at least I have clear sight of the scale.
In an act of nostalgic self-indulgence, I have rebooted EVE: The Text Adventure (2013) & integrated it into #EVECrews.
Let Captain's Quarters live again!
Now with updated jokes.
With apologies to all. ;)

I'm very excited by the latest feature to be added to #EVECrews. Away missions.
The player can now deploy infiltration teams to board NPC structures to loot them. The system is basic for now, but tested and working.
I'm looking forward to expanding this.

Perhaps for no one's amusement but my own, I've now introduced procedurally generated backstories for every officer.
My chief engineer has an amusing bio.
Shame she's a disloyal racist I should probably eject.

The 1st hours of a new player's #EVEOnline experience is engaging & cinematic.
In contrast to former lead designer CCP's Soundwave's lament about EVE's learning cliff ("Here's a Rubik's Cube, go f#*% yourself!"), it's also polished & accessible.

I'm considering jumping onto an impromptu livestream to see what the #EVEOnline new player experience is like these days & how #EVECrews might complement it.
The wife & kids are out, so I've got a window for a few hours.
