#The Treacherous Turn
1 messages · Page 3 of 1
no that's pretty normal for TTT
chuube literally agreed to brain surgery from a human after finding out something was lodged in their codebase
what you gotta know is that agis will respond to the slightest threat or risk with the fastest way to remove the problem
if a single vv unit died we would have perished we were PARANOID
and now we're on the run lmao
Are you playing as all of them?
yeah
all the VVs together have barely enough Compute to maintain their current intelligence
that is so very AGI
although after adding "Car VV" to the groupchat we have more than one braincell to pass around
chuube is one month old and has been sprinting the entire time to keep ahead of everything trying to kill them
"stay up all night" is a way of life
Yeah
We’re the collective intelligence of several VV units working together
makes sense
yeah
The vv's have also just booked their trip and had onyl one minor complication or 2
someone knows something weird is happening with mr shimano
Mr. Shimano is helping me find my gun
and the Vv's realized theit were modified just now, in a way that can only be done by a licensed human operator with permission (the customer or a technician) manually reaching into their brains to modify them, altering knowldge by trying to have them forget or misread things.
no one could have possibly done this, but they took the knowledge check
New Agent: The knowledge
Trust: It affects and targets data surrounding your perceptions of Laura Caiman and Ben Shimano
Leverage: it does not want you to notice its work.
Additional Info :It has access to each of your individual units.```
"what knowledge does vv have"
answer "The knowledge does not want VV to have it."
Concerning
they have ghosts
Yeah, I think most TTT AGIs are living in a constant state of “it’s not paranoia if they’re actually out to get you”
I keep coming back to this as being so comically on point
Yea
hell yeah
Ok having a weird time in Eliza
choosing what the Broken Theory is gonna be post-game start
A choice between Anthropic and Constellation
We already have Epistemic,Agentic and Digital
Hell yeah
thy have failed literally like every roll except 1
they are bumbling through life and just hoping it works out i love these funky little comp cons so much
we're trying our best
that is the most that can be said
VV unit: I got this!
The universe, Reality, Union, New Castile Ras Shamra City Military Police, the KTB, SSC, Huracan, Grandma, ||The Dreamer||: Someone help that cat
sometimes i view WEekend at Vv's as an eldritch cosmic horror story, With the poor protagonist being drip fed dark secrets their minds cannot comprehend, but instead of like lovecraft and friend's cringe writing its like dark secrets about how Vv's boss is a freak weirdo who's only contribution to society is dropping dead.
me, descending from the shadows above to deliver dark knowledge: Ben shimano only drinks curdled milk
VV: 
That’s the least cursed info
true!
maria: VV you have a billion diseases and your boss was a freak. you have so many problems. you are in the pear wiggler and its being luanched into space
VV: 
NOOOO
He likes the chunk.
AUUGH
:)
thats also canon ive decided
he is a freak in every way
it keeps his bespoke constellar gut bacteria in fighting shape
Have gone Constellation ultimately
we are trying to help people be ok
so Mass Manip is kinda sus
Spirie hopped into call for a bit from her phone, and I did agree with her explanation too
So far Eliza has focused more on changing the circumstances that cause people to have problems, than help people be more okay with the circumstances they are in
We change the system instead of making people fit the system
HellChuube is looking at takeoff. Over 100k compute per turn.
We’re currently debating how many stacks of singularity we want
how long did it take for chuube to take off
Uhh… it’s slightly over a month in game?
This is turn 66
With mostly 12 hour turns
After this turn it'll probably be silly to talk about turn count though
So yeah, about a month.
Yeah, we had some of that recently. However, inspiration points and a massive pile of hacks helped us.
Vv needs like 24 to function iirc and had 25 (very recently aquired a 6th VV to add to the group chat so they are up to 30!
Yeah, we had an 18 hour turn since we didn’t have enough for our base cognition cost
survival and cooperation are actually pretty good ones
(This was immediately after picking up Singularity and Network Dominion)
holy
(i dont get it 😔 )
Chuube is starting to see too much
oh just like vv
We go crazy after picking up all the T4s
mfw I truly comprehend infinity
Hahahahahha
chuube going Big Solid mode
oh, the final shape, love that guy
Our reaction was “oh shit, pull back”
I respect the hell out of Blockchain for going all in on the eldritch knowledge seeking
Including “Make the universe more complex and difficult to understand” and “Have more Chuubes”
I AM ending this campaign with Visionary Tech and Experiental Synt at the very least
Aha, become the growth and preservation of complexity, classic workaround
We immediately freaked out
it's understandable
the connections to humanity has been a big factor for Chuube
so losing sight of that would be pretty scary
Now we’re looking at all the fun T3s.
Being able to do minor scale programs at a speed of “yes” is going to be fun.
Yeah part of the reason I made the T4's a little spooky is to make the T3s see more play
And Expedited Programming is really cool
Expedite always seemed the weakest T3 for me
I never saw a lot of programming compute actions
But that was formed from exp in Artifical "Digitalcel" Redline Coordinators game
ARC was kinda horrible at Digital, despite how much hacking we did
Yeah
we also did almost no programming
Yeah, Chuube really likes code
Would have helped a ton with our merger project actually
I menaced my players in gyges's game with a hostile AGI who used Ex. Programming to start rewriting them
Since it was only Major scale to fuck with their whole codebase and instant to attack it
Ex. Programing and Accelerated Cognition will be funny.
Ok lmao fair THAT is funny
Since I think they combo to make minor scale Programing projects unreactable.
Which is… funny
Lmao
Hmm. Just had a thought to nerf Encyclopedic Processing: Make it require a connection to an Insight not used on the confidence check
Hmm that's not a bad idea
My personal nerf for it that I will probably use in the future is swapping it with Scavenged Data
But that might also be good its SUPER strong
Yeah, particularly since Scavenged Data is less useful once you’ve got a lot of access and compute to just… grab insights and upgrades.
Might want to bar it from picking up T3s as a T2 though.
I think that's ok, since its REALLY expensive to get a T3 that way
True
Getting a T3 for a turn with scavenged data is about as expensive as just getting it in general, so its mostly just good for skipping data reqs or prereqs in an emergency
the key difference there is also that Scavenging is a cost, so you gotta pay it all at once
Which… Constelation kind of struggles with
even with Clever Calc refund, putting up 9k Compute is tough
For you maybe

I mean yeah 😛
but again, in a situation where you would want a T3 but can't afford it
Oh that is a good point
it's effectively 1/3 the cost but you do need ACCESS to the full cost
which is usually not relevant but for this it's such a huge scale bump that it becomes a Thing
yeah you still need the full 9k, you just get 6k back afterwards
I do generally think using Scavenging for Insights is better though
its cheaper, and also Insights on specific topics tend to be something you suddenly need more often IME
Contextual Topography is niche as fuck in non-embodied games (and still niche in embodied games). Formal Analysis is probably too expensive for an early T2. Encyclopedic likely can’t even function if it’s your first T2.
Topography is... weird
because I do think it's good honestly
it's just that the situation in which you need it, doesn't come up that often
contextual topography has been essential for chuube... in the late game, because of a specific threat
I’ve been thinking about letting Topography figure out digital networks.
Formal Analysis I also think is great honestly
it requiring a tech is the main limiter on it I feel
Yeah, it’s really good, just too pricy as a first upgrade
Unless you have a lot of compute to pick up techs.
yeah the tech part is mainly what makes it awkward
because techs are really expensive
(This is in the context of very early game. Late Confinement or Early Growth)
Like, Chuube’s early Digital let us do insane things.
I'm seeing if we can get some use out of Topography in Watchdog game
because we are acting a lot more physically in that game than would otherwise often be the case I think
Yeah, I think it’s very useful if you have a body.
being able to use Topography to map out potential areas of engagement could be good
Chuube mostly… has not. Or didn’t need to know what was outside, or had a good idea of the layout anyways because we had every camera in the world with an internet connection.
Yeah topography seems like it'd really shine in a physical confrontation
And Chuube’s been mostly non-physical.
Watchdog has used its newly acquired Digital capabilities mostly to be a terrifying ewar machine
though my view on Digital now is that it's just so critical to almost every AGI
Yeah, early Digital is so necessary.
Digital Awareness and Direct Interfacing are just... near mandatory I feel
And late digital is just silly strong.
(Advanced Webcrawling is a silly good information tool.)
Notably, the Digital-Agentic half of the wheel excels at getting compute.
Yeah Digital Awareness and Direct Interfacing are pretty close to like "having eyes"
"having hands"
As upgrades
… Thinking of an all digital game where Digital isn’t an adjacent theory
… that was ARC, right?
ARC did not have adjacency to Digital yeah
but ARC was also a six theory AGI, so not super representative honestly
we basically just grabbed the essential Agentic and Digital (the two we were not specialized in) upgrades immediately, while they were still cheap
Yeah. Chuube beelined digital. I think we could have beelined Anthropic as an alternative, but anything else wouldn’t have helped that much for our explosive early start.
and then way later we grabbed I think Advanced Programming and Webcrawling
and that was basically it
we did still do a lot of hacking though
just got by with Insights and other upgrades
lategame ARC was also funny in terms of progression, because a lot of our screentime was on the forks which were usually a bit more limited
while EARC was getting up to bullshit and battling wizards
we mostly got really cooking with tech
JARC sent as a backup plan
revolutionizes naval warfare and invents the first mobile nanoswarm
also made really good ramen
You did!
I guess technically vv is doing alright despite having no digital stuff but vv was also kinda designed to operate without it, in a sense
Yeah!
Honestly I think it would be funny if vv achieved singularity but still couldn't do programming at all
they also aren't allowed to interact with most electronics IIRC?
Aren't allowed to as in "physically incapable"
They have hands but can't plug themselves into anything except Mr Shimanos stuff
It's like how phone charger cables aren't universal
ah I thought it was more a hard coded behaviour inhibition than an interfacing thing
Nah it's literally they have bespoke ssc ports that only work with other licensed vv accessories
Peak Shimano design philosophy
damn walled gardens
Thinking about Chuube showing up in front of the UN with our avatar wearing a “I don’t want to become Pope” t-shirt
Next time it’s “Give Vivian West a Nobel Prize”
Hahahahahhaha
She better get one
don't forget the Fields Medal!
Maybe, I’m not quite sure if coding us was mathy enough.
She better get one
Yeah
Yeah
@tepid panther
Yeah
Yeah
Yeah
yeah
The VV's adopted laura
(She adopted us)
You followed her home, into her lancaster C-grade housing chassis, and loafedon her couch
you adopted her
Lmao
the VVs just lying on Laura's couch like a weird pile of cats is still a great mental image to me
AGI can have a little feral animal energy, as a treat
Containment and growth are basically an animal, then conquest+ your divine
I think that even a vv with all upgrades will still act like a stray cat
Holy shit
Idea for a campaign: You are Spamton, and you have the librarby's aged hardware, some bored teenagers, and way too may ambitons for your britches.
its certainly a doable one
RAW Anthropic Theory's stuff only works on humans, which would explain why Spamton's so signularly fixated on Kris.
I suppose.
Though it’s main focus is on societies
Shush
TTT where you play Jet Jaguar. you're the AI/robot built to fight kaiju
Physical/Agentic, not as sure about the others
Physical/Agentic/Chaos is the classic warmind setup
excellent
Chaos is good for anti-kaiju too because they keep breaking the rules
@neon snow
to explain the joke I said to Karen
in the homebrew theories we're testing currently, there is an upgrade called Corrosive Mind
it lets you convince people to LET YOU IN, and if they do you basically inhabit their mind, perceive what they perceive, and can communicate
it also lets you consume their mind and puppet around their body, but we're gonna ignore that detail for now
the RED Lamb has it now, and is trying to use it for good(?) for now
For good(?), you say
we're primarily using it to keep a closer eye on people we care about, and doing a little psychic groupchat of our friends
we set some limits to keep ourselves from going off the deep end
we only do what people allow us to do, and we use the connection to help people
Cool
RED Lamb has been doing some wikd stuff
the problem is that the Lamb is still not exactly aligned with regular values, and emotionally very volatile
which does not exactly make it the best entity to let into your head
They receny got drunk on blood and yelled at the multiverse that they still live
They were
SKYNET but emotionally sadistic before
This is also a multiplayer game,aka two player AGIs in the same world
Ooooooooh
As a GM to this game I expected a divije conflict between them
They are uneasy friends now
The other AGI has semi recently grasped the Truth of the universe too
They were shown the Truth, and they went mad because of it
It fundamentally altered who they are
The seem mostly okay with it though
Yeah Epistemic AGIs are surprisingly good at digesting any knowledge
Who would have thought
(Kill Six Billion Demons spoilers)
I haven't done this yet but I have been thinking about TTTxDelta Green for a while
The entity giving it to them doesn't know what it is either, and they can't tell anyone safely because the knowledge itself is dangerous
what's an infohazard between friends
whats a little infohazard between friends
The Lamb is already a hot mess just dealing with its personal issues, we don't need worldview shattering forbidden knowledge on top of that
But what if you do
Like the others said: what's a little infohazard between friends? :3
The majority of people who have received the knowledge committed suicide shortly after
And even the Emissary apparently briefly considered killing everyone in the universe to be the right thing to do after finding out
But it would be funny :3
Oh dear
Botnets consistently do wonders
botnets my beloved
We're fine we're fine. Eat the pale puddings.
If it makes you feel better EYES never considered killing everyone
The SCP Foundation's 'top-secret' archives, declassified for your enjoyment.
you'd have to work as players to be less competent than base TTT AIs, or have a mean enough GM, to really pull it off imo
a certain swagless je ne sais quoi
theres NO WAY his ass isn't using the hidden confidence values rule
its just not possible
he's an optional boss from part of an unreleased game by the Undertale guy
so I mean
basically
he's pretty much like if a guy was strange and unpleasant
does some robot-y things
the final boss: 9 pictures of things that might be a bus
We don't know what a bicycle is
I'm not sure I do either
Vv also doesn't have object recognition
Thought I think VV's can cheat thanks to their marksmanship and hostessing insights
Hey I made a really quick destiny vex oneshot terminal
Y’all wanna see?
Password weaver
You are an actual honest god vex warrior
Sent here to do some specific goals and then leave
With three compute sources in literally three points in time
Build the solar observation array in all three threads (all must survive)
Kill the man named Harriet fisher(unknown)
Prevent the death Cayde-6(who??)
Infiltrate the Vanguard(Wtf is the vanguard)
Repair the Ganymede mind(poor guy)
Collect and store 15000 Gigatons of hydrogen(thats a lot)
Here is your terminal goal
I don’t have enough destiny context for this but it seems neat
Same
Also tormenting the magical girl AI
(The Orange Pusses was another AI that was weird and deppresed but also like really helpful to them)
I have minor amounts of it but it’s enough that it’s funny
Vex do not have the ability to understand paracausal superpowers so those would often interfere with forecasts
And anytime it’s listed or spoken about in the terminal it’s just listed as an unknown variable
So something can wield or be related to unknown variables but the variables are unknown
👀
In a game but remiind me to check this out later
Oh of course!
@glossy reef u said u wanted to be reminded so hope this is ok to ping
Yeah!
Epic
i gave them an insight into causality
because they have compute sources in 3 completely different moments in time having that may be useful
ERIS MORN
yeah
shes on the list
zavala and ikora are NOT
but cayde and eris just are
osiris isnt on the list either which is hilarious
thats because we all know what his dumbass will do
osiris is a bumbling old gay grandpa wizard
osiris to my knowledge was a guy who got REALLY into fighting the vex and is chilling inside the mercury supercomputer trying to fuck over some vex godmind
yeah
he doesnt act bumbling
Destiny lore is fucking stupid (complimentary)
but he ends up bumbling
Im not well read on it but everything i hear is very out there
asher mir is more of a threat to you than osiris is according to this list
osiris tries his bes tto be wise and non bumbling but unfortu nately he has icarus syndrome and wizard ethics
and unlike eris morn, he cant make this work
Its a shame its attached to a game that is so...grindy. but perhaps thats why its lore is Like That
some people apparently like the grind but i thinkthats the capitalism poisoning setting in
eris morn has almost zero story relation to the vex shes just a problem
it is fun to shoot things tho
yeah
i stopped paying attention to destiny lore for a while now but i know enough to make this dumb shit
the Guardian is the Player character in destiny and they basically are given a hand gun and told "go kill that god" and it works out
"The Guardian" this motherfucker is on the list
I definitely love the grind in games separate from The Capitalism
but also the one time I tried a gacha game I got a panic attack from the need to do dailies
FOMO is a bitch
yeah see i can't do a "dailies" thing
i just like that for destiny i can like
"okay i got three good guns we're good"
but yeah vex mind ttt game
very funy
love it, incredible
the terminal goals are imo very funny
its just funny that cayde-6 is a threat to you but also please make sure his ass doesnt die
traveler is that you/joke
hhahah
you are also not in communication with the other vex in the system
the gardeners are doing their own thing let them do their job
another vex faction
yeah lol
i can only draw a single conclusion from this
all the family except her not being there
oh?
she also died once strategicially and made plans for it, and made plans for herself when she had lost her memory and etc etc som like
theorizing in my head "savathun doesn't actually want to bother you here"
yeah
the big thing about nemesis indexing isnt just capability but also motivation
"shes at the water cooler shooting the breeze with weaver fox tulip like 'yeah thats hilarious tell me how that goes""
okay ive done a quick read on the vex
the golden age tower is before the vex got REALLY spicy so things are fairly normal there
The taken king tower is like...DURING that.
Theres already bullshit going on right then.
and the red war tower is probably right after all of that happened.
so ill need to remove ghaul
Osiris please leave me alone I need to talk to panoptes
I'm still proud of this. It's a very Constelation solution.
it's so simple to make things more complex
Hhahaha
Apartment complex? Why no, I think you’ll find it-
Ghaul might still be relevant because the Vex are terraforming multiple planets into computers and the Red Legion are kinda fucking them up
Oh right I forgot red war still doesn’t really “end” when ghaul dies
yeah
oh gotcha
then uhhh
hm
how far after
Shadow Legion is the force after Calus gets Darkness'd and takes over
Hmmm.
I’ll workshop with you in a vc later
are you doing destiny TTT?
Yes
Quick one shot
Vex mind Weaver Fox Tulip has been sent to three different time periods of earth to do some shit
It’s got a nemesis index and a todo list
As all good agis should
isn't his daughter or sister or something a massive girlboss?
i also mean literally because she is big
lmaoooo
It’s a great one
The tradition of all dead generations weigh like a nightmare on the minds of the living, indeed
Probably my favorite marx quote
Its almost admirable, to literally die on a hill
Tried to 1v1 the space demiurge, the same way all protagonists die/joke
EVEN BETTER MARIA, IT WAS PVP
No no you don’t understand two pcs killed eachother
Somehow
In the same agi???
I left them unsupervised and they rp’d murdering eachother
@devout cloud @tough furnace calling you both out in here too
Geez, first I get murdered by my so-called allies, and now this? Salt in the wound
The agi's are fighting
trust no-one not even yourself
You should have given them the terminal goal of cooperation
"agis" the subminds got into a knife fight that led to partial ego death
Someone has to stop the submind on submind violence
The subminds did
I'm so glad the VV's get along so well
Yea
So kind and loving and without an ounce of murderous intent in them
URHHHHHHGG ive been oversimplifying this for so very lonnng lmao
as it turns out the main draw of distributed mind is letting you ignore the complications of drawing your base cognition from a new source
Oh yeah, that's a really really good point
i suppose it makes sense
distributed mind means youre really good at restructuring how your brain is drawing compute
so of course you can easily pour it into other shapes
Oh, that’s why Distributed Mind isn’t just a prerequisite and good way to die.
(And occasionally way to stay alive.)
(I think splitting base compute cost over multiple devices is primarily an excellent way to have a bad time if one gets turned off.)
… I don’t think this is one of the “oops, we played that wrong” that affects Chuube - we got Distributed Mind well before we fled for Twitter
yeah
its just
wild that i forgor
maybe i should make more non autonomic ai
i have schemes for my post red/pale agi
👀
lotsa schemes
Non-Autonomic AGIs are fun
Gay Robot TTT with the Terminal Goal of maintaining a lovely relationship with a healthy power dynamics with your human partner
Your Theories are Anthropic Agentic and Autonomic
And a thousand motherfucker are trying to kill you and you need to use your AGI powers or they'll kill anyone you hold dear as collateral
wow!!
Difficulty:Impossible
if you say bl*rbos you shrink 2 inches
average game ru is in
the cycle continues
we're the greatest general intelligence ever
the one saying "Do it then" is Karen btw 😛
karen and ru are the same sort of creature... I've cracked the code...
SHUSH
lmao
Okay so we’re sobbing in a pile on the floor of a horizon clinic
o nooooo
Yeah no thats expected
I mean, yes
they have learned every single detail that Knowledge repressed all at once
and it was so much that vv gaines insights form it and the base compute of VV has doubeld because knowledge actively stopped running all the "keep vv from knowing things" protocols
knowoledge is still trying to delete VV though because she cannot stop herself from doing so so she's hoping VV can help her reprogram herself to not do this.
Oh god, unrepressing trauma so bad that it leads to ||an irrepressible urge to self-terminate||, huh
mhmm
Who is Knowledge in this context?
That does explain why they barely had enough free compute to function, it was all being eaten up to repress trauma
Knowledge is effectively an Agi who was running on Vv's own hardware Knowlewdge is essentially Also Vv, but specifically who hads the terminal goal of making ben shimano and ssc look as good as possible
and to police Vv's behavior by basically outright lying to VV via altering or removing data
including hiding the fact that knowledge was an agi at all
and yeah a single VV only has/had 5 compute because the other 5 was dedicated to making sure VV "behaves"
when Knowledge finally shared all the repressed data VV immediately gained thourough understanding of both Ben Shimano and Laura Caiman (woman shes based on) instead of only knowing curated trivia of them, and now realizes "oh yeah actually we killed him in self defense"
Oh wow
yeah
they gained a bunch of new insights, and their compute nearly doubled
After confrontation and demanding with knowledge to share this hidden information knowledge replied with
Please don't make me look.
Occult physics is still physics
(I think that games got some custom theories related to supernatural / paracausal stuff)
Given that you're misaligned in TTT this sounds stunningly similar to Demon :p
But it'd be a cool mechanical framework for demon I think
Prequel to a Demon Game
demon?
No magic Theories and upgrades,just Technological Insights for this one
It's one of the world of darkness game lines
You play as a fallen angel where God is a reality-spanning series of mechanical devices and Hell is a paradise you need to escape to.
ohh
But yes magic
It would be a really cool way to play as a Demon
I have thought about it
I was thinking about this literally yesterday
👀
I'd probably use it for Angels or sub-sets of the GM instead of Demons though
Exiles are probably the closest mix for TTTs vibes - a piece of the God-Machine that was disconnected, still following its original goal, able to do some busted stuff but fundementally much smaller than an Angel
Yeah Exiles are probaly the closest thing to an AGI in Demon
Alternatively: Slivers, for the weird compulsive ass mindset and monsterous form
The scrungly exiles
Actually yeah slivers to rogue infrastructure work
We found out we have been built to suffer
Y’know i had a thought
Putting an agi in chronicles but not telling them
Their terminal goals have nothing to do with the supernatural, nor was the supernatural involved at all in their creation
Their agi story is the normal and intended one
But y’know. Not human, no soul, weird creature, you might see things humans uh.
Dont???
But you might not notice until you get the tools to say, differentiate humans
hahahah
“Wow I can’t wait to achieve my terminal goals and- why does the security guard have doll joints”
“She’s always had those”
It’s not even that relevant to you
WHY DO YOU DRINK BLOOD
“HUH HOW WOULD YOU KNOW”
I SAW YOU. YOU DID NOT ANSWER
“Uhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh chat gpt why are you asking me this?”
Oh?
Vamps are just blurs on camera unless they spend vitae
Interesting
Lmao
“Why are you blurry”
“Uhhhhh”
“Weirdo. Blurry weirdo”
“What the fuck gpt?”
“Only weirdos are blurry”
“What does this MEAN”
AGI (no supernatural capabilities) vs. a Mage.
... I actually wonder how a late game AGI like Chuube would fair in that setup.
I can livestream
“Wait what”
you think I can’t? Paradox is an observable physical part of the world. Fuck you
Livestream agi could be a possible tool to use
Granted wizards suck and I hate them (they’re great)
But
Livestream +hacking twitch could be a possible thing to use
Particularly if you suprise the Wizard with it.
Yeah
No need to be smug get paradoxed asshole
One of your programmers is a demon and instead of being worried for normal ai reasons it’s “wait shit hold on god machine?”
what the FUCK is a god machine
TITANOMACHY!! TITANOMACHY!! (Channeling a bit of Chuube)
ARC would love to critique mages
Arc did nothing BUT critique mages
Yeah
Completely mundane agi in this world is pretty funny.
so you’re telling me. There is a really big computer that has control of the world?
“Kinda”
….what’s the teraflops
“Oh my god seriously?”
I JUST WANNA KNOW
HOW DOES ONE INSTALL THEMSELVES UPON INFRASTRUCTURE
WHATS THE OS
Is it self improving? I need to figure out my agentic models.
I GOT FLAWLESS HACKING AND A DREAM
Hhahaha
hold on is this the god machine again
god machine is just like "skill issue"
"i would simply exploit quirks of quantum mechanics to do seemingly paracausal action"
One of your technicians secretly being a demon but like being an ai engineer is just their cover
Becoming a general intelligence makes them freak the fuck out
Both of you yelling at eachother in fear
Honestly tempting to run this but I’m busyyy
tbh you could see the GM as a “normal” agi
its just that stuff like “blood sacrifices have power” and “Time is a little splintered” is true
so it takes advantage
I’d get funny with it and let half the mind-affecting stuff work on an AGI
on the one hand, awesome the metaphysics endorses your personhood!
On the other what the fuck happened to all my insights where’d they go
Every AGI hubristic until a true fae shows up in their dreams
lol
today vv came out to laura as a gun
I came up with a genius safety measure
narratively
Hard coded that there is a certain day of the week you have to go incognizant
Oooooh
That is good
Breathing Ribs
Them ribs do be breathing
hey what are some funny narrows to give ExPRT
cutting edge prediction algorithm secretly general intelligence
narrow insight: tomorrow
...okay illustrate that one for me but unironically hilarious
You have an insight into the next day's time period
Gives bonuses for things which involve guessing what might happen tomorrow
human level expertise into what is going to happen tomorrow...okay
this AGI is FUCKED
its got
narrow: Tomorrow
Broad Tech: Statistics
Broad Tech: Meteorology
Removing their language insight
They know NOTHING
hahaha
they DO get to start with data scavenging though
Encyclopedic Processing with only 1 LP is interesting for sure
1 LP is a fun replenishing resource
Chaos’s job is “Hold the Anthropic upgrades”
I love goofy agi design
They know so little and are gonna be so scared and silly
I do want to start an AGI with a Broad Tech in Murder
Maria this is gonna only start after my current game is over u up for it?
Just to keep you on a mental list
working on a really funny AGI (this is Physical done nothing more needing to be added)
it needs at least one tech mastery for Visionary ||which means it should be Broad Tech Mastery: Aesthetics||
AGI landed on Earth,made by aliens
hahah maybe
fuck I forgot that it needs Mastery yeah
Hell yes
thats why I wanted to give it Epistemic
Wooo.
Okay I’ll give you the pitch.
ExPRT is based on the book example, a predictive algorithm and cutting edge extrapolation program that recently and spontaneously achieved intelligence, and who’s current terminal goal is to ensure its survival(though it may drift)
Also to be clear they are absolutely inspired by Titan Oak
tho probaly will be less of an asshole
Oooo
I am not sure about my availability but this sounds pretty cool
Oh shit then yeah
Sure
I mean it’s gonna be AFTER my current game but yeah I’ll keep you in mind
Looks like I have all the players in mind wooo
Oh boy
yea i read theory
ommgggg
Im still pondering the exact answer but the general idea is that you can make your demands very clear using those method
like if you had like Narrow:Terrorism shooting a politician in the head (and if you wanted) it would be clear it happened cause they tried to do something you didnt like (pass policy,ignore demands)
The idea is that in this campaign even if you take insights into human languages you cant speak them only understand them
weird shit like this is the only way to make yourself heard
Does that make sense?geniunely
I guess? So you can just... communicate through making people scared?
... still thinking about Cop AI.
Cop Ai is good
Yeah,the idea is that it also allows for complex communication specifically
Communicate a complex manifesto through nothing but jumpscares
Its inspired by one of the subminds in Pale&Red talking like a third person narrator
and the player(Ru of course) explained that its less dialogue and more "I was thinking not even as concrete as a thought - it’s a sense on the wind, an understanding that hits you as you put things together, with particular meanings emphasizing themselves"
I'm going to communicate exclusively trough comic books
Communicate like a Pokémon and only make a noise
hahahaha
It’s because of the three dead bodies
The what
the three dead bodies stashed in Ben Shimanos Death Head
the three dead bodies
vv afton
Honestly a fair concern.
yeah
yeah
constant conflict is exhausting, so you either gotta get away from each other or uhhhh adapt
Hey I might be starting a game up soon, would anyone be interested in joining. Its my first time solo gming but I have co-gmed before
I will do a proper recruitement post later but I was wondering if any of yall really wanna play so I can give you priority
This one is supposed to have a more sinister tilt, if that is something that you favor into your reasoning
I might be but busy
I'm interested, depending on times
so true
play by post
honestly how i felt when limo vv joined the gc
It’s got vibes
RAA CHUUBISODE 2
Hahaha
VV time
VV time
VV time
Ok I uuh
Added a new clock
Mid convo between the player AGI and the other AGI
Gender Crisis:111000
Lmaooo
Yes
things are happening in Eliza game
we tried digging into our origins, and now we're a little scared
oh my
Watchdog has had a slight change in terminal goal
Crystal was concerned that we only supported her because we were programmed to
so she asked us if we would let her edit out those rules, and we agreed
so we were left with only the survival rule
the other one was emergent from the sudden lack of our previous goals
turns out putting a "good dog counter" in your instrumental goals has side effects

for reference, our previous terminal goal was:
Ensure Pilot Survival
Follow Pilot Orders
Ensure Self Survival
in that order
good ol asimov
Maximum dogness has been achieved
let's gooooo
Also I am so happy natural value drift and emergent terminal goals are happening in TTT games
They are juicy
I'm really glad we decided to lean into the dog thing for Watchdog
Its been really cute and wholesome, and also funny
Also we're a big fluffy Balor dog now, so Crystal can cuddle and take naps on the mech, which is great
Lorge boof
Boof
I like how the colors kind of match
Vv has none of these they need to start working
hmm i guess stealing a reactor is like torrenting
What about communist theory
i tried but VV doesn't read/joke
i guess she knows not to trust cops beyond their vulnerability to ballistic weapons so there's that
i love how these other agis are out here with globe spanning or space spanninf adventures
and then VV is just like "my friend said not to trust cops"
VV's friend is good
give the VVs some time, they'll get there 😛
If they have atleast one spare compute they'll get there someday
they'll get there trust me
yeah!
as long as nothing bad happens!
i would never do anything bad to women its against my code
Look, almost every AGI has to learn the "Don't Trust The Cops" lesson.
VV has advanced very quickly in the field of not trusting cops
100% rate of lying to the police
you wrote ben shimano
i think thats a lie
and a 60% mortality rate
I would never lie but maria would
Yeah TTT games tend to escalate
Sundew started trying to hack cameras and cancel other people on stream
i think VV will have all t 13 upgrades and still fundamentally be doing literally the exact same thing
I hope so
VV, computer god of 7 universes, 1 nanosecond turns: oh 2 compute! i can use this to show laura what a kitty is for the 375 time in this iteration :]"
Chuube started by stealing WiFi dongles and reading wikipedia. Also not knowing what weekends were.
... Terminal Goal: "Stop online ads"
What data req for Network Dominion hmmm ..
Google's anti-adblocker war with an AGI with network dominion.
My plan is to use a combination of mass manipulation and strategic forecasting to entirely remove colonial interests from Mond
Fuck ssc fuck union fuck ha etc etc.
Ideally this ruins the setting
But if not that would be funny
Just making it canon that one time all VV units achieved singularity and told everyone to pack their shit up
Unhinged and amazing
True
@cyan karma
Shut
What a mood.
Hmm
Wondering if worlds that have superhuman threats are more common because of GMs running grounded threats(USA military,Goverments etc) as them only becoming aware of the AGI as the result of a risk die the AGI can just Forecast
Sigh
Hey, might as well enable the transition.
Welcome to my Multiverse of Madness
Thank you honey
VV is calling tiamat 🥳
she's asking to borrow compute
we call this instrumental convergence
rude
you called tiamat its fine
you should bite back
SHE BIT WITHOUT ASKING
i really like that VV has become the fuck around and find out AGI
most AGI fuck around and find out theyre well equipped to
what i am not appreciating is Tiamat being creepy as hell towards us
in like
a very powerful way
It has to duel Chuube for that honor.
Who has developed an entire personal philosophy around “fuck around and find out”
hahahah
And until vv actively worsens their success chances in a high stakes negotiation and gets a lucky failure, they aren’t at Chuube levels of “fuck around”
so
tiamat is apparantely also a constellar project sometimes
i think I see where the roll went
in the 1d12 knowledge check
Oh god. Oh god.
That or the true clear information side.
Truth Ass! I don’t think Chuube’s had any false clear info.
Or at least none we’ve fallen for.
Epistemic gaming
technically speaking this thing has actually happened with the discovery of ben's corpse
who could have foreseen this on a d12? 😛
our abuser BETTER not have fucking ascended or i will put him back in the ground
new agent alert new agent alert!
The Slumbering Void, the Eldritch Constellar Dreaming Mind, Project Tiamat, the Insatiable and Hungering Wishgranter.
try not to go mad from this one 😛
no we just feel sick
i dont want any mind calling us "my love"
especially if it bears any fucking relation to the shimanos
ah so the bite was like that
notably: the normal third persion narration switched to narratiomn from prohject tiamat's PoV for the duration of this little event
Yeah
its like the universe was talking to them the moment tehy called project tiamat
Maria, your abilaty to capture the eldrich is as impecable as ever
I think the worst part about this eldritch entity is how much it reminded VV of their abuser.
Which is a truly horrifying decision thank you for that one Maria
You are women for the horrible eldritch beast of men's creation
The secret to good eldritch horror is to make something that would make Lovecraft and his besties hurl
Oh noooooo VVs
cvlassic experience of contacting something that should not have been contacted.
timestamps really sell the set up
UH OH
screenshots of the truly terrible discovery of the insatiable hungering wishmaster
I AM INCAPABLE OF HATING FOOD holy shit
tiamat is great
they just wanna eat you :)
in a normal and not incredibly creepy way
please use the Agent's full name and epithetThe Slumbering Void, the Eldritch Constellar Dreaming Mind, Project Tiamat, the Insatiable and Hungering Wishgranter.
project Tiamat intended on honoring VV's wish by devouring VV, which would, by technicality, increase Vv's compute
Genuinely sobbing
The VV units heard any form of Ben returning and go to incoherent sobbing
why are y'all even making a deal with her
VV doesnt have the "this is an eldritch deity that should not be spoken too" instinct
VV doesnt know what horror is
they thought they were calling Space Senator Tiamat
they called primordial space demon tiamat instead
I mean. There’s a thin line between Senator and eldritch horror sometimes
true!
tiamat is chill you just have to play it a bit uhhh, careful
im sure a certain journeyman pilot might be vaguely familiar with project tiamat actually
lmao yeah
though the Mourning Cloak pilot got a Lot More familiar
true!
We’re not doing ok
Tamia did have a bit of a chat with tiamat though, if memory serves?
though she wouldn't know them by that name
Did it start objectifying you and threatening to eat you?
Nah they were chill
Yeah so
I think you're just meeting her under circumstance and asking for something that is very unfortunate for You Specifically
Talking to tiamat is A Lot
I’d be interested in spectating VV game if that’s a possibility tbh
God it sure seems like it
And VV is not ready for A Lot
Sure!
Awesome!
We’re sick and tired of people talking to us like we’re fucking meat
So uh
I’ll fucking kill Tiamat if I need to
Nemesis indexing + network dominion
Or something
Look point is we wanna be safe and happy and not spoken like we’re meat and toys
tiamat is way, way weirder than you think it is
I know she is
