If anybody's paycheck depends on "AI could never..." I suggest exploring other skills.

Streaming won't stop it, just have the AI play the game and do every possible thing.

This won't matter. AI will be able to build the game from video of gameplay.

No need for residential raids. You know where the person is. Wait outside. Hostages? Wait out of sight. Eventually they come out.

You're right. I just don't want surround.I have two big, nice speakers for my tv, and that's what I want. But I still have to actively work the remote, especially with a kid sleeping in my house.

The fact that they refuse to balance audio for standard stereo setups is a whole other nightmare.

We've been doing this for a long time now, it's similar to using a depth map or a line drawing to control the silhouette.

Almost impossible to stop a determined actor from downloading media that you're serving to a browser. Most organizations don't have the budget or understanding. They outsource their websites, and ask for it to be as secure as possible.

Not at all. They want people to experience what they have, but they don't want a small subset of people selling prints, T-shirts, and little statues. From their perspective, they sell excellent quality prints, etc. in the gift shop and online, and the proceeds benefit the collection. So they lock down downloads if they can.

It's well established. Most public websites for museums have galleries of high res scans, and they're mostly all trying to keep you from downloading it. There are lots of tools out there to circumvent them, however.
