You can tell I really went hard on playing/recording/editing/uploading for #SteamSpelunk this year lololololol

(also 2023 with only 36 games tracks cause that year sucked and I had some standbys that really came in clutch for me mentally -- especially Hypnospace Outlaw and Bugsnax <33333)

Crazy that Sven wants Larian to use AI for "placeholder text" when they put writers through this intense unpaid writing test (that I've heard a *lot* of criticism about out in the wild).
I know this because they tried to recruit me and I strongly considered it but they’re also a “do an unpaid writing test where you have to also make it playable” company so that’s not something I vibe with

Similarly to "Why would you use the slop robots for concept art or placeholder text when silly stuff does the job even better (and doesn't kill the planet/poison marginalized communities/put people out of work/etc)…"

This is my favorite placeholder from 2.0 of "Undergrowth!" 😂

The "we use AI for placeholder text" shit is wild. Just type placeholder text, just use lorem ipsum, put ylrdutdufsdufgxkgcvkvbkm to replace it later. Do ANYTHING but use the plagiarism, environment killer bullshit. Especially for PLACEHOLDER TEXT.

Also... CONCEPT ART?????
NEW: I spoke to Larian boss Swen Vincke about their ambitions for their new RPG Divinity, cutting down development time, pressures from Baldur's Gate 3, why BG3 wouldn't have happened without Tencent, how Larian uses generative AI, and much more www.bloomberg.com/news/newslet...

Do NOT create chatbots based on creators you like. It is creepy. It is the wildest, nastiest, creepshit thing you can do omfg please act like someone normal raised you! This is for everyone in every fandom! Don't do this shit!
I have just found out that some reprehensible fucking dork has made an AI chatbot based on the character I played on The Magnus Archives and *it has my voice*. I genuinely don't think I have ever felt so fucking violated. My actual voice. Saying things I have never said. I feel sick.

Idk who needs to hear this, but talking to blorbo on the plagerism machine is crossing the picket line.
talking to blorbo accounts for over 50% of AI use

This is definitely AI slop and super disappointing from a show who can get artists to get something done like Pip and have so many people working on every aspect of it: www.instagram.com/p/DHCFA32p4Gk

I suggest you all follow this guy. He covers how to spot AI videos & photos and while some are more obviously fake, some of them like the fake B&W security footage are shockingly difficult to notice & you have to rely on body language & consider natural behavior

AI has actively made life worse for literally everyone

- tech is now more expensive
- you cannot trust most media of reality anymore
- programs barely function
- energy prices
- literal psychosis
- your voice can be literally stolen for evil
- more spyware

but hey, you can avoid paying an artist.

These trees look like Jimmy Hendrix & Claude Monet did a collab, but this is just what the rainbow eucalyptus (Eucalyptus deglupta) looks like every day: fabulous.

The only 'rainforest' eucalyptus, it's native to the Philippines & Indonesia, but introduced in Hawaii, Florida & California.
