"If you’re reading this, it’s safe to assume you play video games. Not only can they be a great distraction from your messy apartment or an angry girlfriend, but they can also be a huge source of entertainment. However, on some occasions, games choose to be aggravating as hell. There are a ton of stupid features found in games that will raise your blood pressure. These are gameplay elements that are so trite, trivial, and annoying that they make you wonder just how in the world a developer approved them in the first place. It’s even more unbelievably that they continue to put these same mistakes into games. They are now becoming gaming trends."

..Then Sony will use it like the drop of a hat. They're no different to the others.
People that aren't software developers just don't understand the benefits of AI. People who's only exposure to A.I is the Terminator movie and other related sci fi films won't understand the benefits it provides.
It's not about replacing human labor. It's about making human labor easier.
Many years ago, I had laser eye surgery done. It was performed by a robot. The doctor took my measurements and calibrated the machine to make sure it would do what needed be done. And then the robot corrected my vision in 10 seconds.
15 years later and I still have 20/20 vision.
God, escort missions really are fucking annoying. Tell you what though, I also hate how so many developers are trying to shoe-horn multiplayer or co-op into games that really could do without it. :/
Ugh, I hate checkpoints/Save points that are miles apart.
Dumb NPCs are the worst, but you know what's more killer? Terrible level design on top of dumb NPCs.
Escort missions, eurgh.
Whenever a game makes me carry around an injured NPC, I want to stab myself.
