  • I don’t think the Steam Machine is going to be placed in the market as a competitor for consoles. It’s probably not gonna be sold at a loss. The Steam Machine is a competitor to Windows. It’s Valve’s solution to show hardware makers and publishers that a PC gaming market without Microsoft is possible. At the moment Valve’s business is way too dependent on Microsoft. With the direction Win11 is going, Microsoft is a serious threat to Valve’s survival. The more anti-consumer Windows becomes the more likely it will push PC gamers to consoles.

    Remember the first Steam Machines came out when Microsoft tried to force their Windows Store on developers in Win8.

    AI was never used to refer to human like intelligence anyway in the AI field. Like any form of computer “intelligence” was called AI. Like chess machines or NPC logic in a game were called AI. It just needs to seem intelligent like the word artificial implies. It’s only now with these LLM peddling companies that suddenly the general public thinks AI refers to reaching human intelligence.
