Visited a gorilla family today in Rwanda. I saw only happy, eating and playing gorilla's. At one time, the alpha silverback walked by me at 1cm distance. I was squatting, so at eye level and we made eye contact. It was magical

Why are game developers so adverse to these technologies? The best way to find out is by asking folks who have lived through the history of game development.

![What this means for Penguin Festival:
We are not stopping production.
SteamVR/PCVR launch is unaffected.
We are looking at storefront alternatives for standalone Quest 2 & 3, though we cannot promise anything at this time.

I am going to have to trademark "AI-gen is a mediocrity trap".
Using it prevents you from reaching mastery cuz you aren't exercising deep skills.
If you are a master you might lose those skills cuz you outsourced too much.
Either way the end result is a hyper efficient mediocrity trap.
