"I think we are way too self-obsessed as an industry" Microsoft's CEO Satya Nadella is urging leaders to focus less on AI hype and more on real‑world usefulness. "Just any amount of celebrating technology for technology's sake is not working."

Microsoft's CEO admits the AI industry is self-obsessed, but his own executives aren't listening.

Microsoft AI leadership keeps talking about sci-fi futures while average PC users just wonder why their operating system needs a chatbot.

Our massive overhaul of the AOSP Messaging app has reached the Stable channel in our App Store after 3 releases. It's well on the way to becoming our own high quality GrapheneOS Messaging app instead. There are still parts of the interface to overhaul including widgets and important features to add.

Between the GenAI, the fact I can't use anything other than an Outlook or Gmail address, the FOMO of their store... Maybe it's the to admit VRChat isn't the place it used to be. God, I wish I could get Resonite, ChilloutVR and Overte in GeForce NOW ;-;

Need a breather away from real life for a bit? Chill under the rain and stars on VRChat. Headset not required. Check out our curated list of worlds this week: www.discovervr.chat/rainy-night/

Please do not visit any worlds that feature AI heavily, and do not support creators who use AI thumbnails and assets. My only hope is that we are able to make this platform better for creators, and hopefully better for the players as a result.

Getting super tired of getting on vrc and looking at worlds, only for about a quarter of the worlds and thumbnails to contain AI slop bullshit. Why do creators have to be put with other "creators" who can't seem to make a world without generating assets and garbage thumbnails.
