If you're not trans, I don't think I can fully explain how important this is.
It's so powerful that one of the most circulated science media publications in the world has come out and said "trans children are real and providing transition care improves their lives." That's groundbreaking.

The name "Popular Science" doesn't mean we shift our coverage depending on public opinion. It means we cover relevant subjects that are rigorously researched, reliable, and grounded in reality.
And trans lives are grounded in reality.
We see y'all. No matter what.

First-of-a-kind study shows encouraging data for trans kids who socially transition
Ninety-four percent of participants in a new study stood firm in their trans identity after five years, and "detransitioning" is rare.

Heads up to artists still using Twitter- Twitter is now adding an "Edit image" button under all images posted on the site that allows everyone to feed it into genAI and modify it as they wish with a prompt

I do think Sandfall should've been more transparent on the matter from the get-go, but I'm glad they finally clearly clarified what went on.
Granted, I wouldn't blame anyone for still being skeptical given Sandfall's initially vague responses, but I'm choosing to be an optimist on this.

So, a new interview with the Clair Obscure / Expedition 33 developers came out
And there was a very pointed question with a clear cut answer on the genAI stuff- this is so much more reassuring!!!?
Basically it was due to early genAI naivety and they don’t fw it.

Most of all, drop that "we're fucked" mindset. Time to leave that doomerism bullshit behind and focus on doing good.
I want 2026 to be the year where we collectively stop rewarding negativity. Stop bringing others down to bring yourself up. Stop bringing attention to genuinely awful people. Stop ignoring people bringing positive changes to the world. We need more kindness and empathy. I’m dead serious

oh so turns out the extent of Expedition 33's genAI usage was briefly experimenting with tools back in 2022, not liking what it made, and forgetting to remove one of the textures they generated before the game shipped
in which case, who gives a flying fuck lmao

Yeah, about that: didn't happen, probably won't happen any time soon. Sorry.

“AI is clearly sticking around so you have to get used to it” wrong. I don’t have to get used to shit. I am a practiced hater and I can keep this going for decades if I am required to

Perform empathy. Please. Perform the fuck out of it. It's so good to act with kindness. I hope it penetrates to a place where you feel it, too, but if you must act some way, act the right way. I'm not here to judge your authenticity, I just want you to be kind, thoughtful, and mortified by meanness.

I want people to think more critically over AI and understand WHICH AI is the kind ruining our environment (it's genAI). AI in general has been around for decades and fear mongering over anything labeled "AI" is doing more harm than good. The AI that detects cancer isn't genAI.
