Do you remember the Pokémon Go craze a few years ago? Now, its players are getting scammed by the game's maker, Niantic. The company has jumped onto the AI bandwagon and is selling player data -- all those locations they sent you to, and all those photos you dutifully took are being fed into AI training.

If you're sick of hearing about Large Language Models (LLMs), get ready for Large Geospatial Model (LGM) hype!

Currently, it appears to be at the stage where Niantic has had dreams of monetisation, put up a "For Sale" sign, spaffed a bunch of AI hype on their website, and baited a trap to get the gullible with a bunch of techy sounding keywords such AI and Augmented Reality (see attached screenshot).
Will it cost a lot of money? Yes.
Will it burn a lot of electricity and cause a lot of pollution? Yes.
Will it amount to anything useful?
No, I don't think so.

Screenshot of the concluding paragraphs of a page on the NianticLabs website. This is what the text says: As we move toward more scalable models, Niantic’s goal remains to lead in the development of a large geospatial model that operates wherever we can deliver novel, fun, enriching experiences to our users. And, as noted, beyond gaming Large Geospatial Models will have widespread applications, including spatial planning and design, logistics, audience engagement, and remote collaboration. The path from LLMs to LGMs is another step in AI’s evolution. As wearable devices like AR glasses become more prevalent, the world’s future operating system will depend on the blending of physical and digital realities to create a system for spatial computing that will put people at the center.Niantic logo. This sloppy graphic design is an awfully garbled message. The main part is a black ideogram on white background and under that is black text. A stylised hot hair balloon has a two-masted sailing ship suspended underneath instead of a gondola or basket. A pair of elliptical orbits surround the balloon, like electrons orbiting the nucleus of an atom. The text says "Niantic".Pokemon Go logo.
