Being an artist while AI is on the rise is scary, but computers can never replicate the authenticity and soul that exists in what humans create themselves.
Don’t give up.
Your creativity is the most powerful tool you possess.

So the guy himself is saying they arent really even seeing productivity gains? He said they are just using AI because they are afraid of being left behind. He is inviting this public scorn by repeating techbro talking points for no benefit at all. The mind of a CEO is fascinating.
If I had known the two paragraphs about genAI in my article today would be so controversial, I would have expanded them a bit! Here's a rough transcript of the relevant portion of my interview with Swen Vincke, so everyone has all the context. (Full article here: www.bloomberg.com/news/newslet...)

Sorry to all the rank & file folks who have this guy forcing his world burning plagiarism machine on them just to keep their jobs.
People loved BG3 because it was made by human hands and human minds and it came across that way at every moment.
Way to tank all your goodwill.

From the Bloomberg interview with Larian, the new Divinity game is utilising generative AI in multiple aspects during development.
Even if said AI content isn't directly visible in the final product this taints it in my eyes tremendously.
Pay your concept artists & stop using the theft machine ffs

If you're using AI to generate "concept art" and then creating an in-game asset based on what the AI plagiarizes, you're using an AI generated asset.

OH This is ridiculously important!!!
One of the beautiful things about webcomics is that they still exist outside of corporate sites which restrict content and favour certain kinds of stories...
But it's been getting harder. This project would help so much.

My "favorite" piece of bad advice is always "You're such a good writer! You should make your characters HUMAN and you'll be a best seller!"
Ughhhhh no, don't tell someone who does anthro/alien fiction that. I designed these characters this way for a REASON.

Got the results.
It is unfortunately breast cancer.
The fortunate thing is that it was detected early so the survival prognosis is good, but this still means surgery, radiation, and meds. I'll have my insurance, but my HSA is empty until 2026 and more may be needed.
Any help is appreciated.

If you're not, listen to this.
Get a guitar or some drums, or a trumpet. Pick up a brush, a pencil, some clay or a welder.
Just make shit. It doesn't have to be good (eventually it will be) just make music, art or write or whatever.
It's literally never been more important.

Guys, as a ex call center employee, this is fucking DESPERATION BEHAVIOR.
Pizza and ice cream once may be an entire year's planned discretionary budget for a team, they do NOT value them enough to provide common comfort. If their doing this? Their not just scared, their TERRIFIED.

Spoke with a source who told me the call volume is so high, a call center for both Mastercard & Visa is bringing out pizza and ice cream so agents don’t quite amid the rush. Long waits are causing dropped calls.
What you’re doing is working. Call MC & Visa.
