*A fantasy or science fiction themed strategy game that deals with two different species that are radically different sizes. It is either simultaneously a citybuilder and a basebuilder (the smaller species city is the larger species' base) or else a simultaneous citybuilder and 4x/grand-strategy...

I want a game that uses AI to infinitely expand something along the lines of Scribblenauts in the same way that Infinite Craft infinitely expanded the gameplay of Doodle God

does the end of an empire in this sense need to be a balkanization or are they counting nominal regime changes as the ends of empires as well?

No I said that businesses are disposible and replacable. Businesses are not people. Business is the opposite of life and humanity. They can be primarily made of people, in a similar way to how the Human Centipede* was made of people, but that does not make the whole a person nor does it make...

Regulation to protect the consumer. Or to protect people from businesses. Yes. But not regulation on people.

Why should legal systems need to "catch up" to every new technology? It;s bad enough that they regulated the hell out of TV and the internet and now you want them to regulate the hell out of AI too? I wish we could go back to the lawless internet of 1990's and early the turn of the century, but...

Plenty of money can be made moving in that direction. All that needs to happen is for businesses to keep pursuing short term gains at the expense long term stability, and for anti-trust laws to remain in force. As long as the economy remains in a state of discord companies will keep one-upping...

Yeah. I had considered making it a poll but I realized that I'd definitely wind up leaving out several of them what with how many times they've been revised

I've said some utopian things here but even I have my limits Also, are you imagining factories? I'm more imgining the scope of household appliances and computer software being gradually expanded until eventually they do everything including writing software and building household appliances...
