steam is apparently allowing "this game had AI in it that it didn't disclose" as a valid return statement, so if you or anyone you know actually paid $70 for slop, get that money back
Insulting to the players, insulting to the IP, insulting to the medium, the developers. And the craft itself. Fuck you executives who pushed this garbage.

Call of Duty: Black Ops 7 is littered with AI art slop, because your $70 means nothing anymore
Call of Duty: Black Ops 7 is littered with AI generated artwork which makes the $70 feel like a complete rip-off.

It's very rare that I read a book and think "ah yes this author writes in scrivener", but every so often there's one where the character names are nonsense in a very specific way and I know I've found someone else who writes like I do.

Folks it pains me to ask so bluntly, but could anyone use some work doing by me? I've got to find income for three months until my next royalty payment, and I'm not having much luck.

Why did nobody tell me that Joey Batey off The Amazing Devil had written a novel?
And that IT'S NOT A CULT is exactly the band-focused folk horror romp you'd want from Joey Batey Off The Amazing Devil???

It's amazing how much harder it is to plot and structure a novel than it is for an OGN of the same rough page count. I suppose prose is denser and less mannered in its structure, but it's still... a hell of a thing.

sort of incredible to read a review that doesn't just made a vague nod at AI being bad, but actively reckons with the ways in which falling obsessively to AI usage actively obliterates the artistic intent and integrity of the work you've made.
