"Global AI research pause starts November 4th" — it's a WoW expansion joke
tlakomy · x · 2026-09-13
A joke tweet claims a "Global AI research pause starts November 4th" — riffing on the WoW: Forever launch announcement (new dungeons, 10 & 20-player raids, a playable flying race, 1000+ new quests, Beta on Sept 17). The punchline: the entire AI crowd will be busy raiding. Pure industry humor, no real event.
