Something that hasn't been made clear: Firefox will have an option to completely disable all AI features.
We've been calling it the AI kill switch internally. I'm sure it'll ship with a less murderous name, but that's how seriously and absolutely we're taking this.

Please do not purchase Luck be a Landlord on Xbox. I will be making a $10,000 donation to The Palestine Children's Relief Fund to (hopefully) help offset the revenue the game has generated for Microsoft.

Speaking as someone who was responsible for hiring actors in 3 big AAA video games, VO is one of the cheapest assets in the game. Gargantuan bang for buck. I think we spent as much on a single character model as we did on all the VO for the whole game.

when you talk to an author or artist, they will tell you directly the things that influenced them. They know the exact moment the idea entered their head, and what kind of neurosis lead to certain ideas.
Don't outsource your thinking. Humans are curious by nature, be curious! It's fun!

Been thinking on the use of GenAi for mood boards. Ethics and legal risks aside, I truly believe using GenAi as references deprives one of many pivotal things.
Here’s a blurb on what I mean:

Yeah I only use AI for the fun part right at the beginning where we're kicking ideas around and not worried about budget or expectations. Just the best part of any group creative endeavor, me and my team challenging each other with our most visionary ideas, I'm looking to automate that
"look we're not using AI in the final product we're just using it to speed up the conceptual stage" is what a lot of dopes affecting an enlightened middle position keep saying. I truly do not get that one. You hate imagining stuff? You don't like thinking and conceptualizing? Get a grip

The thing thats so insidious about using AI this way is that one of the main ways artists get hired are studios looking for art references and they find us and reach out.
This is removing a major avenue to get work if they can just generate nameless derivations of our ideas.
