With the new Grok update that allows people to IMMEDIATELY edit anyone’s art ( & no way to turn that feature off), get ready to give a lot of artists a warm welcome here.
I mean that.
A lot of people are completely crushed & feel they have no other recourse than to join, so please, engage.

I say this with zero irony: if you are even tangentially a part of a retro video game community, it is your civic duty to push back against this company and shun anyone who doesn't. This is fascism tapping gently at the door and as soon as you let it in, it's going to invite its friends.

"the lootboxes are okay, they're just cosmetic"
"we USE ai, but our game wont CONTAIN it" is a clarification that no one has ever cared about & now CEOs are using it as a wedge to get their foot in the door as a part of a long term plan into normalizing AI, just like how 'it's just placeholder' was used with E33. dont cede even an inch of ground

All of the companies that make the software I use are increasing their prices, to account for an "investment" in AI.
I'm sat here imagining how my clients would feel if I added 30% to each invoice, because I "really got into gambling".

I have many thoughts about this, one is I can't help but think this is all just shining a light on how games are still being held to wildly different standards than other media like film. I've played very few games like HORSES but watched so many films like it (as a connoisseur of arthouse horror).
Humble's now banned it too, post-launch:

Fandaniel is so funny. Self-admitted 10,000 years of trying to find meaning in life and failing. 10,000 years and you didn’t once try a hot dog from five guys? Deeply unserious man.
