French publishing house Harlequin decided to use AI translation instead of human translations.

All their freelance translators (some of whom had been working with Harlequin for +30y!!!) were told they would no longer receive work from Harlequin

Because SE's QA people are probably not in a position to defend themselves and their jobs in public, I want to spell out some of what it is they specifically do for us localizers, because nothing I've written here is rhetorical. SE QA acts as a final check on our work after translation and editing.
You don't need me to tell you this is yet more good money being burned after bad. But as someone who's worked with that QA team, I'll say they're unsung heroes who truly play a huge role in maintaining SE's reputation for high quality locs and to attempt to replace them with AI is deeply insulting.
Square Enix wants 70% of its QA work to be handled by generative AI by the end of 2027, in partnership with the University of Tokyo's Matsuo-Iwasawa Laboratory. https://bit.ly/4qKdyQR

Roll20, which owns DriveThruRPG, told Rebel Scum's designer (@9thlevelgames.bsky.social) that allowing their "hateful content" and political speech on its platform constituted a "slippery slope."

I really appreciate #FFXIV 's CosmicEx's mission design - not just because they are challenging. No, it's that they go "Ok, you should learn X thing, do this challenge to show you can do it."

These missions are basically short quizzes on different parts of classes and that is *so* good.

id like to remind ffxiv and online gaming communities that not everyone is playing at 100% health

a lot of us use these games as an escape/distraction from disabilities and illnesses and yes it can impede in our abilities to play. so please be kind. you dont know what someone else is going through
