The history books are going to refer to this era as "The Stupid Years".
Because all of this is very fucking stupid.
It was twitter.
Elon Musk joins Trump's team. What happens? Harris' chances begin to drop.
Trump did lose support, but there was probably enough propaganda on Twitter to make enough people go "both sides" and just sit out the election.
It also shows why those DOOM demos were only 2-3 seconds long, because that's how long it can keep cohesion for.
You know that thing that happened with the AI generated DOOM?
Well, someone decided to do the same thing with Minecraft, and you can see that the results are... basically abysmal:

Skip to 2:00 for the actual "gameplay".
TL:DW nothing is saved outside of the view screen, things aren't even saved within the view screen, the resolution is like 240p at 20fps, input latency and mouse latency is awful, and this was all apparently done by training on literal millions of hours of Minecraft footage. The mid-range computer I had from 2006 could run the game better than this. A 14-year-old netbook could run the game better than whatever supercomputer they're using to render this.
Note that the person in the video isn't part of the team/whoever that created it, just someone who is reviewing it.
Only a few thousand.
"Given these three steps, what's the logical fourth one?"

"God this embryo is an idiot."
Create the problem and sell the solution.
Investors demand growth. The problem is that Microsoft has basically won Capitalism and has no real area to grow to.
Building 5-7 5GW facilities full of GPUs is going to be an extremely large amount of silicon. Not to mention the 25-35 nuclear power plants they apparently want to build to power them.
So on the list of things not happening...
