(I realize my posts/shares may be a bit... varied. I'm not a Decepticon, promise! I just have a lot of different interests!)
I go extensive periods of no posts/activity, then BOOM. Lots of sharing.

I was probably like this before, but I guess I've reached a new level of dissociation and detachment. *dabs*

Prefer more shitposting? Sorry, boss, best I got is being shit at posting. Feck yeah, bröther 😎🤙

Jack Dorsey is real close to Musk.

DiVine is made by RabbleLabs, on their site you will find a widget called "And Other Things" that takes you to another domain and explains a lot of stuff about their/Nostr's Ai.

Most likely they just want a free dataset of tons of actual videos to train on.
Oh yeah btw the reason why Vine is being relaunched with great fanfare and no Al is because it's jointly operated with an Al company and they probably don;t want to pollute their scrap pile with stuff they've already shat out.

"it is forcing me to be guarded when I should be wowed"

This.

This right here.

I'm so, SO tired of having to scrutinize any piece of art that even remotely resembles genAI slop just to determine whether or not it's worth a second thought or any admiration.
Why am I so against generative AI in games?

Because I simply do not want my initial reaction to art to be one of suspicion and scrutiny, AI slop is fundamentally damaging my relationship to art and artistry, and I am deeply resentful that it is forcing me to be guarded when I should be wowed.

Agreed.

I've no problem if folks like this game, you do you.

I feel it's a dangerous precedent to let a game retain eligibility for an AWARD when they knowingly used gen AI in their game. These awards are meant to celebrate creativity and expression, as well as technical achievement, are they not?
Just a reminder that Expedition 33 used gen AI as a placeholder
They don't deserve to win

THIS IS HUGE! Researchers have just identified a powerful new antibiotic that is 100x STRONGER than existing drugs against deadly superbugs like MRSA and VRE. Hiding in a well-known soil bacterium, pre-methylenomycin C lactone KILLS drug-resistant bacteria WITHOUT triggering resistance.

GOOD NEWS! Researchers have discovered a powerful antibody, known as 04_A06, that is able to neutralize 98.5% of MORE THAN 300 different HIV strains AND permanently reduce HIV viral load to undetectable levels, making it one of the broadest-acting antibodies against HIV identified to date.

On the other hand, I cannot do my job effectively if a writer isn't there to explain their reasoning for the lines and where it came from to a director, who then translates that into vocal technique to the actor. This is a very collaborative process that requires human interaction and intention.
If your game has voice acting, then working with the voice actors is half of your writing process. It's not complete until you've heard it interpreted and reimagined by a voice actor. And they always reimagine it in ways that elevate the writing, in ways you never would have imagined yourself.

As I've continued to be swallowed by grief and general depression this past year, I've been leaning more into Halo to help cope. It was something my family and I played together a lot, created many of the scarce few genuinely good memories I have of us all together.

Seeing Halo be used to celebrate

I realize that a lot of people who follow me mqy not understand the flood reference: in the halo series, the flood is a gruesome cosmic horror horde of zombies. so that’s what they’re comparing immigrants to
Yeah, this is full-hog Radio Rwanda / Der Sturmer tier stuff.

Gives you an idea of whom they're going to end up hiring.

Hey Voice Over Bluesky, there is a Voice Over scam going around about a 'Voice Over Opportunity – Short-Term Narrative Project' that uses the exact same copy/paste text but replaces the names/emails and either uses the company name as 'BACKSTAGE' or 'Workana'. Be wary everyone.

I realize I dont post much. That probably wont change in the near future, but on the plus side, that means less reply-guying :D

Minor update: I donated my hair and shaved my beard back in June(?), so maybe I should update my profile picture soon?? Also, I'm married now. *dabs*

GOOD NEWS! For the first time ever, Huntington's disease has been successfully treated. A groundbreaking new miRNA treatment, AMT-130, slowed the progression of the disease by 75%. These results are likely to support the first approval of a genetic treatment for the rare neurodegenerative condition.
