Y'all gonna start acknowledging the parallels yet?

Y'all gonna start defending art, intimacy, and sex as basic human expressions?

Y'all gonna start realizing that these deranged puritans don't have an ounce of goodwill in their bodies and literally just want to control every aspect of our lives?

i can't believe the number of people in my life who are enthusiastically using Chat GPT for therapy, to analyze text conversations with partners, get advice on disputes with neighbors etc.

it's just autocomplete!

it doesn't "know" anything and can't give you advice!

please please don't do this

The Blue Prince situation is a really good example of the ongoing breakdown in the games journalism editorial process, ie a properly managed Escapist would have killed the pitch immediately after the writer revealed a lack of proof in the claim
There is no AI used in Blue Prince. The game was built and crafted with full human instinct by Tonda Ros and his team at
@dogubomb.bsky.social.

It is the result of eight years of development, fuelled by imagination and creativity, and we are extremely proud of what Tonda has achieved.

This is basically what’s slowly happening to games journalism, this kind of parasitic entity coming in and devouring websites — meanwhile the remaining sites, most of them are suffering a training crisis, a lack of editorial standards taught to those working as writers and editors. (1)
I call it digital skinsuiting. They take the skin of a defunct site and parade it around over their own, trying to mimick the old sites to trick you into believing they're who they claim to be just to steal from you.

The number of big name games coming out saying "oh yeah we used Gen AI tons during the initial concept stages, why is thay a problem?" Is honestly enough to make me not want to touch anything larger than an Itchio game

I think ppl miss the larger picture, this is literally where the industry is headed. Complete break down in editorial because gambling companies buy outlets of yore for cheap, pump them with crap, the few remaining writers with editorial experience rudderless. I used to work with Olivia, she’s not
the escapist very publically went belly up recently and had nearly all of its staff resign and form second wind, while the lack of editorial review is a problem in the games journalism space they are a major outlier because they are as far as i know literally three dudes writing articles like this:

Mobile IDs promise convenience, but before you download your state’s app, there’s a few questions worth asking yourself. www.eff.org/deeplinks/2...

A mobile driver’s license (often called an mDL) is a version of your ID that you keep on your phone instead of in your pocket. In theory, it would work wherever your regular ID works—TSA, liquor

Holy shit the people over at the Escapist are dumb.

Context: they said Blue Prince, the new Indie game of the year winner, used AI assets and everyone should just shut up and get over AI.

Blue Prince does not use AI assets. The article is just a lie.

Go play Blue Prince, it's fucking amazing.

Hey video game corporate friends, lemme boil down something for you.

No one actually likes Gen AI. Your credibility and money is at risk if you proudly proclaim or sweep it's use under the rug.

Using Gen AI makes you look like a hack fraud, limp dick loser. And no one wants to be that.

From 2024. Apparently missed that the first time around. This just destroys my hype for Dark Heresy. If Rogue Trader was made without AI “helping” the concept art phase, there is zero reason to push it on to Dark Heresy development. I am gutted.
