I'm going to use a number of really dumb analogies to try to explain how these large language models like ChatGPT work. First, you have the amount of training they have done combined with the number of things they can look at at once. ChatGPT 4 is much better than ChatGPT 3 in that regard. Think of this as the AI's "hard drive". Second, and often unappreciated, is the number of tokens that the model can handle. Think of this as RAM. Tokens represents ho

[quote who="bradzoob" reply="9" id="3884712"] The videos are a huge fidelity uptick from previous galcivs, somebody has been playing with UE a bit i reckon. [e digicons]:P[/e] they're very gorgeous.

He's super talented and he and his team have a pretty cool pipeline that no dobut includes using the UE 5 stuff.

[quote who="YogiDonnie" reply="7" id="3884695"] Any chance of being able to play the copy I will buy on the Epic game store on GeoForce Now? You can stream both GalCiv 2 and 3 from the Epic Game Store on GeoForce Now already. Why not 4? You still have to buy it on Epic to play it there. My computer runs like a 90's toaster oven. I have to stream my games through GeoForce Now. Please make this available to us peasants that cannot get new graphics-heavy machines. Thanks. [/quote]

[quote who="Surge72" reply="3" id="3884159"] Ooh, interesting. I've got to say, I'm very disappointed to see the sectors still appear to link via single hexes. That's really lame. In my opinion, the links should spread out to an area of hexes on the edge of a sector. Far more interesting defending that than a single hex. [/quote] That's an interesting idea. Probably quite doable actually.

[quote who="Roller123" reply="5" id="3884149"] This thread makes me annoyed when you have (finally) the perfect opportunity to make AI bots playing GalCiv against the player and provide a great solo experience. So... without involving Elon Musk and twitter problems, how soon can we expect this to be in GalCiv i wonder. [/quote] How about...in less than 30 days?

A recent open letter signed by tech giants, including Elon Musk, has called for a halt in AI development, citing "profound risks to society and humanity." But could this pause lead to a more dangerous outcome? The AI landscape resembles the classic Prisoner's Dilemma, where cooperation yields the best results, but betrayal tempts players to seek personal gain. I

In the year 2245, the Terran Alliance and their coalition had emerged victorious in a battle against the Drengin Empire, thanks to the recovery of a mysterious Precursor weapon. The Thalans, an advanced civilization that claimed to be from a nightmare future where humans were responsible for the destruction of the entire Milky Way galaxy, persuaded the humans to send the Precursor weapon back into the void of the pocket dimension it had been previously sent to. Shortly after, the Thal
