Geoff Keighley really is the perfect representative of the gaming industry:
-unreservedly self serving
-pretends to care about the people actually making the product
-loves to make performative gestures that ultimately go nowhere and help no one
-would almost certainly sell out to the saudis

Guillermo del Toro refused to make ‘FRANKENSTEIN’ with too many green screens
“I want real sets. I don’t want digital. I don’t want AI. I don’t want simulation. I want old-fashioned craftsmanship. I want people painting, building, hammering, plastering”

I feel like I'm being gaslit by all the positive reviews of Weapons, but I just don't feel that the movie delivered at all.
Well made. Solid cast. Premise was great. It just didn't land though.

"I need ChatGPT to brainstorm" dear human person the whole point of brainstorming is to find new ways or angles when approaching a problem, the "let's regurgitate the complete stolen corpus of human achievement"-machine doesn't help you brainstorm - it stops you from brainstorming.

Jurassic World Rebirth had a cool concept for a film in there. You'd just have to cut out the half of the film with the A-List cast.

One last ride with XDefiant 🥲
Infinitely thankful for all the opportunities I had working on this game and with its talented developers. Servers turn off tomorrow at 12PM ET and I'll be looking to play with the community for as long as I can today.

Steve Carell tells us about his fears of AI ahead of his new film ‘MOUNTAINHEAD’
“I like the human touch when it comes to creativity, I like the warts, the imperfections and if something’s perfect, it’s not real to me.”
