  • Posted this in another community but I’ll leave this here too:

    So back when I worked at Amazon I was playing around with AWS Skillbuilder. They don’t pay for any other training materials for SDEs (well they used to have ACloudGuru but ended that).

    I was like “they charge money for this so it can’t be that bad right?” Well

    1/3 of the courses were actually what I’d call “watchable”

    1/3 were just SEO Blogspam masquerading as information

    And the remaining 1/3 clearly used a text to speech software that was dreadful. It was incomprehensible.

    I say all this to say that if there was ever a list of companies I would trust to do AI Dubs Amazon would be the bottom of that list.

    If you try to play it casually it’s absolutely awful because there’s no guidance on what to do and some of the tasks are awful if you don’t know how to skip them.

    But if you watch enough speed runs and LPs of the game you start to figure out why the game breaks, how to do the bad parts, and how to intentionally mess with it. And it’s hilarious to do so. It’s like an unintentional broken sandbox. And the best part is even when you’re not trying to it breaks anyway.

    Also the physics in the game are absolutely WILD. It’s one of the few games on earth that’s so bad it’s hilarious.
