This week was AI heavy and I dont expect this to change. There were quite a few interesting stories we talked about. Aside from catching up, we also talked about UBISOFT's comment to a more subscribable gaming experience. Here is the list:
SAG-AFTRA AI DEAL

And the ashes of our favorite SciFi actors falling back to earth is a neat one.
We also talked about #Palworld and the recent spark of AI shenanigans with their new title.
