I saw some early demos and hoped that AI could bring about a revolution in on-the-fly procedural generated content for gaming to do things that would be literally impossible by other methods. But no, instead it has been used to replace artists to produce poor-quality pre-generated static content and I couldn't be more disappointed.
Ooh, I have a good one. While I was asleep my brain came up with "Late'n'Baked" which was some kind of instant foodstuff for stoners along the lines of Huel. This was apparently funny enough to wake me up.
When I saw the trailer to Shutter Island, a film about a detective trying to solve a murder at a mysterious and secluded mental institution, I immediately guessed that the twist was going to be that the detective was actually a patient the whole time. This made me decide that I didn't need to watch it and I never looked up a plot summary so I've no idea if I'm right.
I'm almost never willing to pay current AAA game prices for a game that it's possible I'll be bored with after a few hours. I'd much rather spend the same amount on 3 or 4 well-reviewed indie games as the chances are I'll get at least one game amongst them that I'll enjoy investing my time into.
In the UK we at least still have most of the residual EU consumer protection law in place, so a lot of this kind of stuff that's common in the US would be illegal here. That said, companies still manage to innovate new ways to screw the consumer all the time.

That wasn't intended as a correction. Mastered is definitely correct. Tamed is a bit more poetic maybe.
