The bad news: Over the next couple years, we're really going to feel the delayed impact of all the layoffs, closures, cancellations and money pulling out of the industry. An industry crash happened but we're still airborne.
The good news: It'll take us a decade to dig through the 2020-2025 backlog.

"This use of GenAI is fine because VAs signed contracts to relinquish their rights".
Well yeah, have you seen what happens to those who don't want to sign off on this? Can you really call that consent when the alternative is losing (or never getting) a job?

I hadn't heard of Qzilla, the production company behind Crunchyroll's Sekiro anime. The trailer okay, but something felt kind of off. Looked them up on MAL and they didn't seem to have much motion in terms of the thirteen things its produced. Checked the company website and lo and behold.

If an individual offering consensual nudes of themself on OnlyFans is considered “illicit” but a program generating nudes of women without their consent is fine, the powers that be have made their priorities clear. And they’re the same as they ever were.
Sex is getting scrubbed from the internet, but a billionaire can sell you AI nudes

If IGN has layoffs, nobody in games press is safe. If Microsoft has layoffs, nobody in platforms is safe. If Ubisoft and Bungie and NetEase have layoffs, nobody in game development is safe. If the Romeros get their funding pulled, no studio is safe.
It's rough out there, right now.
