World of Speed screens race into view

Add as a preferred source on Google

World of Speed is a free-to-play massively multiplayer racing game that is coming to PC in 2014 from Slightly Mad Studios, the dev behind Need for Speed: Shift. We got our first look at the game yesterday in its debut trailer, and now we’ve got a whole mess of screens revving up at the starting line. And hey… it definitely looks like a racing game. That’s a good thing. We’ll need to wait and see how the play stacks up, and what sort of features work to fill out the massively multiplayer side of the experience. Slightly Mad has a deep background with racing titles though, so we’re optimistic about what we’re seeing here.

AI has been making its way into video game development for a while now, but the recent developments have started raising some serious concerns. Popular games are being reverse-engineered with AI assistance, recreated for web browsers, and made playable on platforms they were never released for. Between all that, indie developers have started pulling down their demos over fears of getting copied. Anthropic has now stepped in with new restrictions for Claude Code.

The change was first spotted on X and subsequently confirmed by Anthropic's Addy Osmani. The new instructions prevent Claude from recreating specific existing games, even if they are renamed or presented as original projects. Users can still make original games, work on games within a genre, and use their own designs and assets.
