I suspect we will see a human brain to digital interface. I don't think it will be "downloading minds" or anything, but I could see someone finding a way to plug a specialized camera or mic in to have a full functioning robotic replacement part.

I'm pretty sure they already have the beginning pieces to this, but its too specialized and expensive to do anything commercial with it yet.

I'd probably sell it. There is undoubtedly someone with a project truck looking for a deal on one of those.

Might be fun to rebuild but I'd imagine it'll be in the way more than anything.

The artist who the AI stole this from has a cool vibe*

I had a co-worker who couldn't stop bragging about an angle grinder he got for $5 at Harbor Freight.

I thought that's a pretty good deal, so I went in and got some gardening tools, in particular a shovel that was only a few bucks.

The very first time I stuck that shovel into dirt, the metal head bent and sheared off.

The next day I told my co-worker what happened, and he went on to admit his angle grinder only powered on one time before it broke. "But it was only $5!" He added.

I think everyone gets their "one and done" experience there.

Two of them gave up on it indefinitely before we found the right DM.

This isn't surprising. WotC had been salivating for another hit like BG3. I suspect whoever they talk into making BG4 isn't going to be able to clear the bar that Larian has set.

Who is the artist? They got a cool vibe.

I've met several billionaires at this point, and there wasn't really a commonality between all of them except their wealth.

The people downvoting this don't have a big iron on their hip.

I've never had success with randoms because all it takes is one person to really dampen the game, and the odds of that happening are just too high.

Which is a shame because I've ran into good players who just can't find a group to click with.

Maybe they meant the installable mod manager, Vortex.

The unfortunate truth is there are likely a lot of very talented developers at most big studios who ultimately don't have a say on what goes into the game.

Many don't turn around and try making a start-up game though, most just burn out of the industry forever.
