Welcome
We're not The Onion! Not affiliated with them in any way! Not operated by them in any way! All the news here is real!
The Rules
Posts must be:
- Links to news stories from...
- ...credible sources, with...
- ...their original headlines, that...
- ...would make people who see the headline think, “That has got to be a story from The Onion, America’s Finest News Source.”
Comments must abide by the server rules for Lemmy.world and generally abstain from trollish, bigoted, or otherwise disruptive behavior that makes this community less fun for everyone.
And that’s basically it!

MODERATORS
In the context of a "war game" this makes sense. If you remain completely neutral it's impossible to win. Any examples of similar scenarios the model saw during training would have high aggression rates.
Unfortunately this AI was playing Stardew Valley
Probably shouldn't have included Project Plowshare in the training data...
