If you ever feel useless, know that someone got paid real American dollars to stick AI-generated video summaries beneath YouTube videos.

@amityblamity.bsky.social joins the show this week to discuss TTRPGs, which we do, but there was a lot of riffing and sidetracking I take no responsibility for.

I think what everyone is forgetting is that Activison Blizzard is a small, little-known independent company that has to choose between lining the pockets of desperate shareholders, or paying off those evil artists.
Call of Duty isn't even hiding the fact that loads of its calling cards and other unlockables are AI generated this year.

For one of the biggest video game franchises in the world this is pretty disgusting...

"Well, Bloomberg won't return my calls anymore, so I can't afford the $10,000 buy-in, but I got this unused 'Mayor Cuomo' nameplate."

Tragic to see such a beloved satire publication publish such bullshit.

Bowser would never endorse Andrew Cuomo for mayor, because Bowser actually respects women.
Bowser has endorsed Andrew Cuomo for mayor of New Donk City.

Mamdani isn't even mayor yet and already Dick Cheney is dead

I was wondering why @jetbrains.com took effort to obscure that "Full Code Completion" plugin uses AI. Now I know.

Their products will harvest your code for AI training. It sends "complete data about interactions with large language models", which means everything, if you use Full Line Completion.

i love the domino effect of trans people asking the moderation team to take harassment of trans people seriously and instead decided to perma ban a black guy who was one of the earliest users here
So… Łink’s account is permabanned from Bluesky’s appview, but also gets banned from:

WhiteWind
Skylight
Bluescreen
Flashes

Basically all ATproto apps/projects?

WHAT THE HELL IS THE POINT OF THIS PROJECT THEN?

Parenting is hard, but I can't imagine depriving myself of the opportunity to invent stories for my kid.

It isn't just to entertain them. You're sparking their creativity and imagination, a gift that will last them forever.

Shame on any parent doing this, and fuck Altman.
Some parents are letting their kids talk to ChatGPT in the guise of characters. Some are using it to tell bedtime stories or create coloring books.

"My son thinks ChatGPT is the coolest train loving person in the world. The bar is set so high now I am never going to be able to compete with that.”
‘My son genuinely believed it was real’: Parents are letting little kids play with AI. Are they wrong?
Some believe AI can spark their child’s imagination through personalized stories and generative images. Scientists are wary of its affect on creativity

Heads up to users of any JetBrains product. They want to harvest your code, almost certainly to train their AI models.

this business model should be flatly illegal

taking on a bunch of debt to buy a company and then burning the company to the ground to service that debt while paying yourselves huge fees is a purely destructive practice that has never once had a positive outcome

ban it completely
It’s official: EA is going private.

The leveraged buyout will be financed by a staggering $20 billion of debt, which likely means some *aggressive* cost cutting is ahead for EA in the coming months and years.

I’ve said it before, any judge who so comfortably and clearly shows their prejudice should immediately be barred from their jobs, but we don’t live in a world that makes sense.

We live in a world where white people get to deem racism as a simple inconvenience and be the sole arbiter of its weight.
So exhausting..

"Well I've been thinking for thirty seconds and I'm already sick of it. Bring out the planet burner."
“I use it for brainstorming.” is quickly becoming my most hated pro-AI statement.

YOU TOOK YOUR BRAIN OUT OF THE EQUATION. THAT IS NOT BRAINSTORMING.
