This is the first time a dog has ever speedrun a game at the annual speedrunning charity event and it is sure to go down as one of the best runs of all time. Don’t miss it.

GSC Game World announced today that it’s pushing Heart of Chornobyl back to September 5th to work out “certain technical imperfections.”
That pushes the game back nearly a year later than its originally planned 2023 release. A quickly retracted NFT scheme was one distraction, but the Ukrainian developer has had bigger issues to deal with due to Russia’s invasion and cyberattacks.
OpenAI’s GPT Store explicitly disallows GPTs “dedicated to fostering romantic companionship,” but a search of the store yields many custom chatbots doing just that.
First reported by Quartz, GPTs like “Virtual Sweetheart” (with 100+ chats so far), “Your Ex-Girlfriend Jessica” (200+ chats), and “Judy” (with more than 1,000 chats) are racking up a lot of users. Of course, this is nothing new. Both Replika and Character.ai encourage AI companionship through chatbots.
That’s the name of Rebel Wolves’ dark fantasy RPG in the works. The studio, which launched in 2022, is made up of some CD Projekt Red veterans. The game is currently in the “alpha stage of development.”
