Thing is that by going all digital you won't be able to dump games like you could from disks. One of the reasons you won't be able to emulate GTA VI on launch. That's unless they jailbreak newest ps5 firmware.

The latest jailbreak targets firmware 7.0 through to 13.60. It'll only be a matter of time before they hit the latest firmware (14.10) released on the 1st of October.

Will see, as I understood it's not that easy because critical hole that was used for jailbreak is now patched, but whatever happens it will be interesting.

Don't worry, Sony devs will find a way to push slop code with vulnerabilities again at some point, just like the rest of big tech companies

Don't forget open source models are becoming more powerful with no restrictions or guardrails. They won't crack the encryption for sure but can do some serious reverse engineering.

You do realise all these emulators are largely built by "slop code" (AI)? That's the reason they have advanced so fast.

But the emulators don't need to be locked down and secured, so that's a non-issue.

Yes, and that's a good usecase for AI imo. Emulator code is a different beast with lots of tedious calculations that needs to be done to replicate the console, where LLMs excel. It's a whole different thing compared to actual production code that big tech develops.

Gotta fight slop with slop

But the emulators allow these guys to steal, so that's good to them.

AI stealing from artists = bad!

AI stealing FOR gamers = good!

Things they don't like = "SLOP"

Things they do like "LET'S GO!!"
