New AI worse than lootboxes
razing32 Jan 25, 2018
Full disclosure , not sure if this is true , but if it is , there are dark days ahead

TL;DR : Supposedly a leaked presentation is from a company approaching AAA developers looking to replace lootboxes with an integrated system that uses an AI to follow you on social media , use sound to map your room (to determine income) and play with micro transaction prices to get you to buy micro-transactions.

Honestly, it sounds fake by the way they call what they do "bait-and-switch", "psychological manipulation" and so on. I also have doubts whether there is a company that could buy all that data at this point.

Having said that, the tech and the math certainly exists to do all of it, it's a just a matter of when someone will. Thank god for the EU GPDR.
