Addendum: Factorio is I think a cool example of a morally imperfect narrative done well, you play as the antagonist but its pretty unambigously anti colonialism and anti exponentially using up an entire planets resources. Its a tragedy every game of factorio you eventually lose if you play long enough all there is to do is run out of resources faster and faster
Its like the game Universal Paperclips in that way
Factorio also kind of vilifies bugs by playing on the disgust factor, but even after playing it I'm on the bugs side

was repping my overlord employer #UniversalPaperclips yesterday for some time out in the rain. noticed lots of trees that could be used as fuel for the paperclip dominance inevitability.

Seanan McGuire's absolutely amazing #Duskmorne stories have me gripped with the idea of an incremental game in the style of Universal Paperclips, where you play as Valgavoth, first building trust with a helpless victim and teaching them magical secrets, and then expanding across the face of the world, and finally devouring the multiverse...

Right now I'm finishing a round of #universalpaperclips #paperclips - and this time it's my first time, where I actually am finishing to the bitter end with no clips and no drones left at all.
I'm wondering, if a single drifter will survive.
PSA: if you don't know the game yet, DON'T GOOGLE IT!

"AI and data centers are going to require a lot more energy, and that means a lot more energy produced. They're going to need energy that can run 24 hours. And what that means is we're going to need a lot more natural gas." - Mike Sommers, CEO of the American Petroleum Institute

@davidak #cookieclicker is older and slicker, but I really liked the dystopian feel of #UniversalPaperclips https://www.decisionproblem.com/paperclips/index2.html

An algorithmically-generated image of a product which will have no real-world existence until someone orders it, bearing an algorithmically-generated legend, which itself invokes an algorithmically-generated genre (i.e. no human band has ever organically identified itself as playing “autonomous black metal,” the genre having been created retrospectively by Spotify). Brace yourself, we’re in for a whole lot more of this infinite-regression, hall-of-mirrors stuff. #universalpaperclips
