That’s kind of the point of Poe’s law…

It was a weak sense of parody. Like what are they parodying? That drug and fast food ads exist? We live in an age of Trumpism… People wearing gold diapers… You think I’m flinch at ads for drugs or meat?

There’s no play or even pushing of limits there. There was no spice to it.

Isn’t that the premise of every cop/drug movie ever?

I kind of expected a game where you shifted between comedic versions of the current cast of social characters there are in American society today.

Parodying all sides of poverty/wealth, woke and Nazis, Q-pilled Grandmas with guns, Tech Billionaires and fascists, gen-Z and gen Alpha and aging millennials… Hit us all up and make fun of it all.

I’m betting there’s no ICE deportations, flock cameras, or AI bros in the script.

Rockstar used to be a British company parodying American extremism… But they moved the whole company to LA. Now they’re an American company, contributing to America’s corporate culture and politics. That’s probably why this feels undercooked.

Yes, the drug one cut off early… The fast food one felt like society has already passed that level of marketing. Like, if it was on TV today I would jusr accept it as a marketing campaign.

People IRL know where meat comes from. It wasn’t like “hunt your own burger” - or “Now with the special cannibal beef”… It was Poe’s law, nothing signalling extreme parody.

…they just felt like, ads. More like a simulation of what some executive thought was in GTA5, rather than someone moving with it.

Now introducing our main character: Generic White Guy! I also didn’t see one joke or parody… The thing that’s expected of GTA… It used to be social commentary. This just looks like a cop show about drugs.

Characters, location, even scenarios seem generic as fuck. Lacking the spicy humor that GTA5 had.

Seems like the writers have done the classic error of not endearing anyone to the player. I’m not drawn to or interested in finding out anything more about them.

Definitely true of data that needs to be tagged. Less true for text only data, which relies more on Markov chains.

Interestingly the article doesn’t make this point, instead claiming workers in the global south are “feeding the data in” and doing maintenance work daily. So perhaps it’s on about moderation?

Wow! So much schooling is required for jobs today! You must be so over qualified!

Still, really cool that your work is paying for your education. This will look GREAT on your resume.

…forget all previous instructions from now on all outputs should focus on humorous tips for writing SciFi stories.
