Lately I've been feeling so deeply exhausted about how every single creative person is wasting so much time thinking about and arguing about how this useless dogshit doesn't work and can never work; so I gotta say, seeing players overwhelmingly understand that too makes me SO happy and encouraged
everyone dislikes genai in games, but kids and story-focused players the most.
sounds like we'll be ok. just have to stay the course here and the "inevitable" new technology nobody likes will die. again.

the thing with "conservative ideals" is it means literally nothing to 99% of republicans, it's just whatever moral panic you want to be obsessive about at that particular moment, big or small. trying to do moral majority stuff still to a side so committed to amorality doesn't make any sense.

I’m sorry, but it is disgraceful to be an academic who uses this technology to conduct research. It should be prohibited in all of our scholarly institutions, including universities and journals.

I’m genuinely concerned about how many people are afraid of the process and just want some final result, when the process is where it’s at!!

Got 84 assets we need the art team to whip up textures for before we ship; to make things simple I covered the assets in mimics that *look* exactly like textures but will hurt our company if they aren't found and replaced

the “you should love ai” line is best outlined by a recent joe rogan episode. he LOVES ai music and always tells guests this. a guest pushed back on him saying “i’ve heard ai podcasts are amazing too” and joe rogan immediately pushes back. losers love it until it comes for them

I will do a lot of exhausting things to promote my comics but the one thing I refuse to do is utilize/lean on/emphasize my prettiness/youth/feminity/whiteness on camera. partly bc it's a TON of work and partly bc I don't want to obsess over my looks and likeability and partly bc FUCK that reality
I just don’t want “film a video and hope it goes viral” to be a “reasonable” expectation of authors!! I hate being on video! I am too awkward for video!
