Microslop has patented an AI that can play your games for you, so you can get back to doing the things you’re useful for, like spreadsheets, and correcting hallucinations!

Here’s a chart showing how much more work you can do when you have AI play your games for you!

What a time to be alive!!

Funniest part: youtube is littered with vids of AI playing games. It makes about as much sense as patenting a spreadsheet.
@JorisMeys @dgar they patented Excel too.

@Lebramor They have quite a lot of excel-related patents indeed. They patented "entering a formula into a cell" and "method for data validation". Two things I do on a daily basis not in Excel.

Oh, and they patented pivot tables. And cloud collaboration like Google sheets does.

What they didn't patent, was "a spreadsheet". Because that thing existed long before Excel existed.
