So the guy himself is saying they arent really even seeing productivity gains? He said they are just using AI because they are afraid of being left behind. He is inviting this public scorn by repeating techbro talking points for no benefit at all. The mind of a CEO is fascinating.
If I had known the two paragraphs about genAI in my article today would be so controversial, I would have expanded them a bit! Here's a rough transcript of the relevant portion of my interview with Swen Vincke, so everyone has all the context. (Full article here: www.bloomberg.com/news/newslet...)

Reposted this a while ago and I realized re-reading it now that looks like I'm saying we should excuse Larian because E33 got the pass.
I didn't give E33 a pass- I opted not to engage with it after they confirmed the use of GenAI in their pipeline. I'm not giving Larian a pass now.

Expedition 33 shipped with GenAI assets (that they quietly updated) plus they literally just admitted to using it.
If Sandfall gets a pass, but Larian doesn't then what the fuck are we doing here?

There are two different news articles floating around, one where Sandfall said they use AI a little, one where they said they're against it entirely, so I'm a conflicted mess right now trying to parse everything together

Still wishing the Game Awards Show actually showed more of the awards part.
Trailers are good and all but dang, devs deserve far more recognition and celebration for their amazing work! 😭

This is why hating and mocking AI relentlessly and publicly is vital work.
McDonald's has taken down a Christmas ad made with AI following online backlash
The company said the moment served as "an important learning" as it explored "the effective use of AI"

Talked to my boss. Thankfully our company isn't heavily invested into AI and our major production is satellite communications and imagery. We did start an AI chapter only for our user guides and tech information. So it's like a clippy but worse. Thankfully our devs never got into vibe coding.

Guillermo del Toro on wealth: "a wealthy man is a man who has enough, not a man that needs more. If you have enough to invite someone for a beer? You're rich. If you have a yacht, planes, islands, and you still need more? You're not rich."
