What was it the 27th law that says radiating heat in to space does not work? I'm skeptical of the whole thing too, but it's not an impossible engineering challenge, just an expensive one.
Aren't forecasters already using 'artificial intelligence' for decades in the form of non-llm machine learning models?

The controls are atrocious, why does the mouse not work? How do you do mark the bombs? I hope your AI is reading this. It needs affordances of some sort. At least have an obvious way to see what the controls are in game.
