> It's a software bug

Why is it a software bug? Just because you want to see those emotional sprinkles, doesn't mean that the person planning how to create the article decided that.

You personally and emotionally decided, without evidence, that this is a bug. No one else is saying that.

Imagine if you asked an AI to describe the discovery of radiation, and the AI deiced for you to talk about the personal life of Marie Curie for 2/3 of the whole text.



> Why is it a software bug?

If you look into the happenings of the game, you'll find that there was a special ceremony held at 13 minutes for the retiring player. It's like summarizing the discovery of radiation and not mentioning Marie Curie at all. It's not emotional sprinkles (which is a pretty messed up way to refer to human interest articles), it's just omitting a notable deviation from the normal game flow is a bug.

We as a community are not used to calling AI failures bugs, but we probably should - it's the most accurate term we have. As is an non-requested backwards joint, or a fan of fingers, on a photorealistic generated image.
