Astro Bot is a supremely silly and incredibly smooth platformer

Astro Bot is as precise as it is ridiculous, and this is exactly what makes it so damn delightful.

The art style, sound effects and animations in Astro Bot are infused with childlike joy, taking the sting out of each failure.

Apple seems to have persuaded OpenAI to work for exposure

At Apple's recently concluded annual conference for developers, the company announced that it teamed up with OpenAI to bring its technology to the iPhone and its other devices.
