假如我是人工智能 Big Brother Is Shaping You

♥♥♥♥♥ для геев как я, 10/10

Big Brother Is Shaping You is a short but surprisingly ambitious interactive experience that focuses less on traditional gameplay and more on examining the growing influence of technology on everyday life. Developed and published by 内购人生PABL, the game explores themes surrounding artificial intelligence, digital surveillance, data collection, and the subtle ways algorithms shape human behavior. Rather than delivering its message through action-packed sequences or complex mechanics, it presents players with a narrative-driven journey that encourages reflection on the relationship between technology and personal freedom. The game's central concept revolves around the idea that modern AI systems have become deeply intertwined with the information people consume. Through its scenarios and discussions, it questions how recommendation systems, targeted advertising, social media feeds, and search algorithms influence opinions, decisions, and even personal beliefs. The title draws attention to the possibility that individuals may unknowingly live inside carefully curated digital environments where information is filtered and personalized according to collected data.

Makes quite a few odd outbound connections that I was too lazy to investigate but are worth warning people about. If you're like me and wanted to idle in the game to unlock the Points Shop - I suggest blocking internet access to the application. Web Proxy Auto-discovery, Google, and random (yes, literally random) addresses are pinged such as "xqefkgnf" - every new address pinged seemed to have a randomized string, and it makes 3 per game startup. This is the only game I've ever seen such behavior on and one of the few Steam games I have seen which will completely fail to startup if internet access is not granted.

Unfinished (or at least, mostly untranslated) reflection of the future (now mostly present) AI-driven surveillance state, and how AI can be used to manipulate people into a state of obedience. Downvoting it not only because it's unfinished, but the sound effects are loud and abrasive, and it doesn't provide perspective on how heavy policing will inevitably enforce systems of oppression towards minorities. At least for the part that's actually translated, its all, "AI is shaping your interests whether you know it is or not" and "AI will avoid recommending things that are unsightly or can lead to being disobedient." All gloom and, as it stands, no conclusion to that gloom.

Still no English translation for Chapter 2, waste of money for English speakers. Steam should remove this from the store. While the translation for Chapter 1 is a bit wonky, it's not that bad. My 2nd complaint is that the achievements are Chinese.
