Unity themselves have committed to that option (if you don’t like our new future TOS, keep the old version and don’t update) in writing (that was in their deleted github repo). So it seems extremely likely that they would lose in court.

The key words in the above are ‘in court’. If you’re an indie unhappy with an x*$.20 charge, chances are a lawsuit will not improve your day.

You’re right, fixed. I think my point is still valid though.

Not even that. More like “stop shouting and give us a few days, we’ll change some things, we promise”.

Let’s look at what are they apologizing for: “for the confusion and angst … [the policy we announced] caused”. Not for the policy itself. Right, “we’re sorry you got mad”.

And what are they going to do about it? “making changes”

As far as corporate non-apologies go, this is definitely one of them.

Was Unity lying yesterday or are they lying today?

Yes and yes. It’s not an either-or situation.

SO’s attempts at bolting some kind of AI into their site have been a great source of entertainment:

Assuming it’s real, the material takes about as much current as a wet noodle. So no giant magnets for you. Maybe some low-current application like sensors? (SQUID etc.)

authorities have stated that they do not expect Cecot’s prisoners to ever be released

Innocence, joining a gang inside, survival don’t matter. It’s an extermination camp barely disguised.

“Is this AI written?” is a difficult/impossible question. “Did you write this?” is not. Running the language model against a text and recording its “amount of surprise per token” for all the released GPT x.y variants is something they definitely can do.
