selling your PS5?
fam, dont. the biggest gaming flex is almost here
Hey there! Back in your inbox, appreciating and ranting about AI.
Every day, about 37 people in the United States die in drunk-driving crashes — that's one person every 39 minutes. In 2022, 13,524 people died in alcohol-impaired driving traffic deaths.
AI is taking it in his hands…
Devon & Cornwall cops are testing some wild new tech that's about to make your drunk uncle's holiday drive home WAY riskier.
These AI cameras are scanning faces and driving patterns to flag potential DUIs – and they're doing it 24/7.
Here's the deal:
• Cameras analyze how you're driving (swerving into stories about "just having two beers")
• AI flags sketchy behavior to nearby cops
• Covers 14,000 miles of roads (nowhere to hide, fam)
Why It's Actually Fire:
Same company (Acusensus) already caught 3,200 people on their phones in Manchester during a 5-week test. Now they're coming for the "I drive better when I'm buzzed" crowd.
The camera is not playing judge and jury—it's just giving cops a heads-up, like, " Yo, this one's acting sus." Then, the real police roll up to do their thing.
Where You'll See These:
• Devon & Cornwall (for now)
• But 9 other police forces already testing similar tech
• Probably coming to your hood soon
Skip the DUI speed run. These cameras don't care about your excuses, and that Uber fare is WAY cheaper than a lawyer. Plus, you know, not killing people is pretty cool.

PlayStation and AMD just announced they're going all-in on AI, and it's way bigger than just making games look pretty.
Mark Cerny (yeah, the PS5 genius) is calling it "Project Amethyst," and it's about to change how your games actually work.
The AI Sauce:
• New AI tech that's not just for graphics
• Machine learning that game devs can actually use
• Something called "fully-fused networks" (sounds expensive)
• Works across everything: PC, console, cloud gaming
Most gaming AI right now is like using a hammer to open a door.
But this new collab is building specialized tools that actually make sense for games.
They're focusing on "lightweight CNNs" (basically AI that won't make your console sound like a jet engine).
Don't sell your PS5 just yet, fam. Cerny dropped that this is a "multi-year journey" (translation: PS6 territory). But when it hits? Game over.
This could be the biggest gaming AI flex since DLSS, but bigger because it's not locked to one platform.
PlayStation and AMD are literally saying "AI for everyone" (as long as you can wait a few years).
