It's also I suspect where we get wildly uneven metrics of productivity boosts in studies: if you look at ok'd lines of code, sure, a developer will be "5x MORE PRODUCTIVE!!!" but if you look at productivity in terms of actual story completion it's way lower, often to the point of being negligible

Corey Landis may not have been striking but he was refusing to sign the paperwork because of his concern over AI usage

The actors who did withhold work either got replaced OR their concerns were listened to

Any time you say “why didn’t Corey just quit/ask for protections” remember that.

That account be like, "SLOP DETECTED: KASANE TETO"

Times are fucked up they got the girls out here Harvesting ADAM

The culture war they think new old Lara is a part of is one where women can't use bathrooms safely if they aren't pretty enough, where women think they can't beat a man at, like, darts? And laws protecting women from prison rape are being revoked?

The two are not connected? But also, like... gross?

Also, multiple women made videos about Sexier Lara equals victory? Huh? What?

Like, I don't think it's a huge loss that a character who is historically sexualized is sexualized again? But also you're literally siding with men who think if you don't wear makeup you're an uggo who should kys?

Like I know what they *think* they mean by "culture war", but how does Lara Croft being a yum yum booty girl with double guns that make her boo boos shake when they go bang relate to the culture war when Bayonetta exists and is loved by leftists the world over?

Like, what are they babbling about?

yes
