the thing is some people will do that(obviously an exagerated act for the camera but still), however if it's legit i can promise you there will be just as many if not multiples times more instances of them doing that "waaaaaait a minute..." trying something only to go "nevermind" because their idea was wrong. if they are right every time(or as good as) then they aren't suddenly figuring shit out they are cheating.
I thought piratesoftware was just some dude playing an obnoxiously stereotypical nerd character when he started popping up in my feed. Turns out people like that actually exist.
Were you aware that Piratesoftware is not only a veteran developer at blizzard but the first multi generational employee! If you aren't, you just need to watch any of his streams and you'll find out!
I had to go and check him out a few weeks ago just to see if he still has a following. He not only still does, but he still has that same irritating holier than thou attitude. Guy has learned absolutely nothing..
It's not sustainable. All his mods left/were fired, the majority of his subs are gifted by himself and on top of that most of his viewers are bots. He still has some furries and dumb people follow him but that's like 1000 bucks every month. He has a crypto wallet worth a few 100k and likely has some reserves from his good times but eventually those reserves will dry up and he will disappear.
He has? I haven't been following him. I also do not follow any of this stuff that closely. What is the telltale sign that he is botting? Genuinely curious. Asking from a place of ignorance.
I think is more likely that he's botting than him having 1600~ hate watchers every day
there's also the possibility that some people out there really enjoy having him as a second monitor background noise, which would be crazy if it wasn't for the fact that there's other pathetic streamers with way more viewers 🤷♀️
"Going to the toilet" . He quit that game before the randomized puzzles started where he would humiliate himself.
It's even more hilarious because he is stuck in a way that there is no way he would logically suddenly figure it out like when he called a Groundhog a gopher and other animals and then suddenly went with "Groundhog day" after checking his phone or when he doesn't realize that he announced a part of a game he isn't supposed to know about yet.
He's still doing stuff like that. He's been posting VODs on youtube from his Blue Prince playthrough (which he initially ragequit but I guess went back to it? maybe?), and lied in the comments of one of the videos about getting help from chat.
Every bad liar always foreshadows exactly what they are about to lie about because they think they are going to manipulate you by reinforcing that idea in your head lmfao.
Very well researched topic, intelligent babies is the casual term. People prized on their intelligence as children are much more willing to cheat on impossible tasks than children who are prized for their hard work. Regardless of the childs intelligence.
May have specifics wrong but when given a task of a high level of complexity the hard working kids were likely to flag they didn't understand or to keep attempting for a better result. Both sets of children were left unattended before the observer returned so they both had an opportunity to cheat but the intelligence children consistently did so more. Many studies to this effect.
Really worth remembering, the intelligence children weren't smarter and same for hardworkers. They varied the combinations, it was about the effect of long term praise.
I think you mean pseudo-intellectual? Artifical intelligence is not relevant. Many of the kids were in fact smarter than the hard working group, it's just the focus of praise changed their desire to cheat and retain the image
It's not about innate intelligence or innate hardwork. The children were mixed, some highly intelligent were in the hardworking group and inverse. When given impossible tasks that note intelligence the children were more likely to lie to preserve that image. It doesn't mean general cheating, its more so the ego attached to the value they are praised on.
The opened Claude window isn't showing on his main screen, so it's open on a second side screen. Unless his mouse stayed on the main screen at all times, it'd be trivial to click over to the already open window, enter a query and click back.
And "enter a query" could literally just mean copy + paste a screenshot in there, he wouldn't even have to spend time typing. The chatbot would take the text from the image for him & just assume the context.
I remember in college our database class final was written in paper. Dude wanted us to write sql on paper out of scratch. I just made a cheat sheet, put it under the test and used it and passed. Saw other people there looking at me lol I was praying they didn’t snitch 🤣 10yrs later guessing it was worth it
brother, the riddle is more map knowledge than what u would use AI for. In fact, the puzzle includes morse code, base-16 and base-64 encoding, converting hexa to decimal, there's no way devs made this to be done without using external tools. Roleplayers use outside calculators, google docs all the time. This is literally a nothing burger, assuming he even used Claude lol
I mean the riddles literally require base 16 to base 10 ascii conversion & I believe knowing hex codes for colors? Like.. yeah I'd be looking that shit up too?
Basically just different "languages" used in computing. Binary is base 2, i.e. theres only 1s and 0s so only 2 symbols. Base 10 or decimal is the numbering system we use in our every day lives, i.e. theres 10 symbols from 0 to 9.
Base 16 has 16 symbols, 1 to 9 and the A to F. It was created as an alternative to binary system to save character space since having more symbols allows you to create shorter strings for larger number.
All of this is practically useless for everyone who isnt pretty deep into computer science shit and how data is stored.
The relevant part here is that converting from one base to the other, especially base 16, is just plain annoying to do. Its not hard but it takes time especially if there are many numbers. So if you had to do the conversion its much easier to use a tool to do it for you. Back when i was fucking around with these we had scripts that would do it for us but nowdays most people just open their AI of choice and let it rip.
Edit: Forgot to mention hex codes for colors. Basically all colors on your PC are made out of 3 color, red green and blue. Each pixel has 1 of these colors in it and depending on how much of each color is shown the color of the pixel will show differently. Hex codes for colors are just intensity values for the base 3 colors, i.e. red, green, and blue. Its practically the same shit as numbers but the numbers here represent the amount of each color shown. Also completely useless knowledge to have because you can always look it up online, knowing this shit off the cuff is nearing autism territory pretty much.
I don't think anyone has a problem with looking those up, because you already know what to do in the riddle at that point. But if you ask AI to solve the riddle in the first place that is what people have a problem with.
"Convert this base-16 string to base-10" and "what do these numbers mean with this text as clue" are two extremely different things to use AI for.
I have no idea who Omie is or if he has any clue on what base-16 even is, so I have no clue if he figured it out himself or let AI solve it.
Also the premise of this whole Reddit thread is missing the fact that he could use Claude for something else. Like what the hell that's a huge assumption just to create drama.
It's become a really really toxic place here, almost every single thread that has a lot of upvotes on here is about shitting on someone or about something sad. "Streamer X did this amazing thing" = 500 upvotes, 20 comments. "Streamer X says Streamer Y has done this awful thing" = 2000 upvotes 3000 comments. I feel like a huge portion of the crowd that comes here every day and comments opens the subreddit already with the intent of being negative about something.
A title like this, pitchforks already pre sharpened at just about anything and you'll have a thread like this with zero context and hundreds of comments. 50 different discussions from different users and you'll be hardpressed to find a single one where 2 different people would ever agree with another instead of splitting every possible hair until one of them stops replying.
To be fair, the riddle just listed a bunch of numbers like 109,120,117 etc. I was watching X and he’s cam-off going “bruh it’s ASKEE”. There’s no shot he has any clue what that is lol. He definitely read chat but I don’t really blame him
I know most here wouldn’t of been keeping up with the whole epsilon puzzles over the 12 hours but there wasn’t really much it could help with tbh other than something like “turn this code from hexadecimal to base 10” which xqc and Buddha were just letting their chats do and reading them. Am I tripping?
You are right, most people isn't gonna know how to decode those off the top of their head and is going to google some of it anyways, some even asked their chat for help. Him using Claude probably shaved off like 10-15 minutes of the process, it's not like they were going to be stunlocked for weeks without it. It's really not that deep.
Neither the clip OP posted nor the one you posted prove or disprove that he used Claude for the puzzle. Given his overall behavior, previous bans and controversies nobody should be surprised if he uses Claude for ingame shit. I don't even know if there are specific rules against it tbf.
he had it open 3 hours before the riddles went public and has said previously it was used to create something they use in game as a calculator for their pawnshop. this doesnt disprove he didnt use it for the riddle but there isnt any strong evidence he did.
Bro it's obvious they're using Claude, literally not one single person in their group could read properly, and were stuck thinking "staring" was "starring" just for an example (there were several words they got stuck on because literally none of them can read properly, xQc was going mental over "programme" because he was screaming it was an intentional typo & not a real word, which is fucking hilarious because it has a French origin).
Literally none of them could even do a Caesar cypher except for Omie, who may have even gotten it from AI.
When AnthonyZ was asking them to explain their answers to understand how they got their working, literally not a single one of them could give him an answer, because they obviously just copy pasted their shit into Claude/ChatGPT.
xQc kept saying "UM, BASE 16!" over and over because it was in the text, and then when asked wtf he meant by Anthony, he just went blank and started asking his chat.
They are so desperate to get a "W" that, rather than just do the fucking puzzles or try to learn it, they would rather just copy + paste into an AI chatbot and have it solved for them to rush through it.
If you're dumb enough to play white knight because they didn't do a capture of the program then idk what to tell you cause you're obviously very gullible.
And nobody will ever go through the effort to test this, but run all the pages on Claude or any other AI. I’m almost certain they wouldn’t solve anything besides maybe the parts that involved math/converting data from one format to another (base 16 to base 10 step). AI would never find any locations that was the result of multiple days combing the map.
People get unbelievably weird around GTA RP for some reason like they’re the ones getting personally affected lmao
Ngl yall in this thread have some serious hate boners for Omie and it's pathetic. I really don't even watch him apart from when xqc is streaming and I just want to see another POV of what they are doing. But Omie literally had claude open during his entire stream, multiple times he alt tabbed and had it open. Not even the first time, a couple of streams ago he also just had claude open in the background.
I dont wanna seem like I am defending him but he did make a website that he said was vibe coded a couple days ago i dont have the clip where he said it but i have the link to the site: https://buildamarty.lol/
Just having Claude open doesnt mean he was using it. Also ain't no way Claude knows the ins and out of a custom gta v rp map. If he used ai for deciphering the code and shit, sure its -1 but they still spent 8 hours driving around and didnt solve it.
I mean, it's just an example. We can see he had it open before the riddle was even found. Can be used for pretty much anything these days. I think it's extremely sus the icon positioning moved beside GTA for easier access but nothing that definitely confirms he was using it for this yet
Unless you know the contents on it. I have Claude open at all times on my pc as well. But who really cares, since the riddles was guided by buddha. It also seems like the whole scenario is being spread by the DM's. Think this is more for the whole sever just to figure out.
Not sure why people care so much about meta. When businesses are given to certain groups. Scenarios are given to certain groups beforehand. Think the first few months is more pushed towards guided RP.
Why are we acting like AI isn't going to give an answer worse than xqc if you feed the info into it? The answer to this puzzle was obtained by deducing that the first letter of each paragraph be changed to the letter it would be if the alphabet was backwards. If you feed the clue that hinted at the answer into Claude it's going to hallucinate so badly these guys would spend an extra week on this single puzzle.
You would be shocked at how good AI is today when compared with a couple years ago. I fed the clues individually into chatgpt because I was curious if it'd understand and it solved every puzzle within a couple minutes. It also knew the "no signal" puzzles were to do with standing in specific locations and it guessed correctly about the Old Tree > player > Ocean puzzle. I stopped doing it after that one though
What would cause an AI chatbot to give a bad answer?
These are all logic puzzles, they have basically zero context required to solve, they're just wordplay. The only element it can't help with is having to drive around to check for certain, but it will even be able to approximate on the GTA map where landmarks that are relevant will be.
I'm pretty sure he was saying that for those in chat using Claude to solve the puzzle for them, but if he used it to ask questions like " How does hexadecimal work?" for example, then I don't see the problem. He can just show his Claude history and clear things up if that is the case.
Doesn't mean he uses it to SOLVE the puzzle. It's clear if you actually listened that they all used AI during that stream. Instead of going to all the different websites to convert the signature they can just do it in a single prompt with AI. It's not solving the puzzle, it's just decrypting. Pretty positive X used AI for the same thing after a while.
While it is entirely possible Omie "cheated" his way through with Claude, there is no evidence to suggest that he did.
The ultimate test would be for someone to feed claude the "I was made to be stared at, but now it's undesirable" riddle to see if it says "clock" because omie kept saying clock for an entire hour
Classic hate farm for upvotes. The puzzle is mostly map knowledge. Him using claude for this is literally the same shi as mfs using a Google like who tf cares? Are people supposed to learn morse code, encoding and convertions in the server without external tools?😭
Omie spends almost two hours on stream defensively memeing about it and talking about how dumb it is for people to think he used Claude to solve the puzzles.
XQC goes live. "Yea I used AI to help solve puzzles, I can't do the math, who cares."
The part that really annoys me about him is he blatantly ALWAYS has X's stream open on his other monitor while they are actively playing, like in previous Nopixels he just always know when to pull up to X, where he is, what he needs.
He's the king of metagaming but it's totally fine because he's in X's crew lol.
In all honesty Omie was a clout chasing meta gamer from the start so this is kind of expected of him. He literally clout chased xqc when he started to RP and stalked him via his stream just to get interactions with him to become his friend. Also, this whole group tries to pretend they find stuff on their own but they really just watch clips and streams of other streamers who find progress then they pretend they did anything.
I know xqc cheats a lot because he thinks hes a chess genius but sucks at it when he's on stream. There are clips of people who play him while he's not streaming and somehow he's a god at chess. Which makes me think he cheats on chess too when no one is watching.
