When you use an artifically generated image to promote your work, or as part of your work, you come across as artificial yourself.
We all know how the sausage is made. Using those tools is choice, no matter how desperate you are, your budget limitations, or time. It’s a choice that reflects on you.

the idea that lots of gamedevs are secretly using ai is booster bullshit
what on earth would I use genAI tools for? Coming up with ideas? Writing? It’s shit at those
making 3D models? Coding stuff? It’s shit at that too
oh but it’s faster maybe? Did I mention it’s shit at things?
seems important

So, I just went down a Lance Eliot rabbit hole. HES NOT REAL. It's an AI. No one of that name exists in real life. There are Reddit threads dedicated to deep dives on him that show he is an AI. Someone needs to expose @forbes.com for this total scam. Pre 2018, Lance Eliot does not exist.

Quick social media headsup from the olden days: do not subscribe to any blocklists of which you do not -absolutely- know and trust the creator. A lot of trolls will make genuine looking blocklists, and then slowly start adding good people to them. Always verify account names & handles!

Helpful tips for trans folks living in the US:
1) Ask your healthcare provider if you can discreetly have your diagnosis/justification for gender dysphoria changed to 'hormonal disorder not otherwise specified', since odds are good the FDA is going to ban gender-affirming care even for adults
