Model can one-shot a snowboard game that might once have earned $5M–$10M
signulll · x · 2026-07-25
A commenter argues that if this game had launched on the App Store around 2012, it might have generated $5M–$10M+ over its lifetime—but a model can now one-shot it with the right physics, graphics, and gameplay understanding.
The broader point: software outcomes may increasingly follow a power-law pattern, where a temporary rise in value is just a brief exception before AI compresses many products toward near-zero marginal advantage.
