@karpathy @simile_ai Managing entropy in a multi-agent simulation is arguably the final boss of interactive AI. Great to see more focus on simulated populations over static personas. Huge potential for multi-modal worlds.

Congrats on the launch @simile_ai ! (and I am excited to be involved as a small angel.) Simile is working on a really interesting, imo under-explored dimension of LLMs. Usually, the LLMs you talk to have a single, specific, crafted personality. But in principle, the native, primordial form of a pretrained LLM is that it is a simulation engine trained over the text of a highly diverse population of people on the internet. Why not lean into that statistical power: Why simulate one "person" when you could try to simulate a population? How do you build such a simulator? How do you manage its entropy? How faithful is it? How can it be useful? What emergent properties might arise of similes in loops? Imo these are very interesting, promising and under-explored topics and the team here is great. All the best!

@Caffeisbasedaf1 @RiotGamesDevRel Blitz.gg does not have ads in-game btw.. OPgg and other overwolf apps do btw..

@RiotGamesDevRel Wait so to clarify let's say opgg can't have ads in its overlay for league ?

Hey everyone, we’ve updated our policy around advertising in Riot games. Third party in-game advertisements are no longer allowed, this includes ads in overlays, during loading screens, and in the Riot Client. If you’re interested in our full list of policies, check out the documentation on our website for more info: developer.riotgames.com/policies/gener…

This is pretty nifty!

Pretty clear this will be the path for an increasing number of apps, and creates a nice transition path for a future stage in which the canvas is moved to the server and streamed to the client.
