Meh. Negative results are still results, and there's still plenty of well researched sci-fitheory that needs to be tested. I could see the field of experimental particle physics shrink or pause until technology catches up to the experiments they want to run, but I can't see it disappearing forever

I've been saying for a long time this is a sham magazine, and here we are with a sour-toned anti-research push piece for AI. I've had it with this publication.

Call me particle physics the way I’m dead dying AND hard

I feel packaged libraries make it easy to get the effect, but normal devs no longer know how the underlying models work anymore, and so ganes are starting to look generic.

Wrong kind of particle physics, this is about the physics of subatomic particles, not video game particle engines

Upvoted. And thanks for the correction
