This can be a difficult and nuanced discussion, especially for people that are out of the tech loop. I try to break it down as
AI = shit you've been using for over a decade. Predictive text. NPC enemy AI. Specialized machine learning.
GenAI = shit built on stolen/scraped assets from the Internet

If we’re going to get really no quarter about genAI usage, I’m going to need people to learn the difference between AI and genAI real fast.

The confusion and conflation of ‘generative ai that is built on stolen artwork’ and ‘machine learning, character behaviour modelling and proc gen’ is intentional on the part of the grifters peddling the former. They benefit from murkiness of classification, because the latter predates their bollocks

SQUARE ENIX
Square Enix aims to have AI doing 70% of its QA work by the end of 2027, which seems like it'd be hard to achieve without laying off most of your QA workers
Square Enix is partnering with an AI research lab at the University of Tokyo to "improve the efficiency of game development processes."

they didn't need AI to make Silksong, it just needed some deeply insane guys to have a blank check for living expenses until their next thing was done, I think we should try doing more of that instead

It's very easy:
Just don't. The idea that Copilot or ChatGPT are suddenly essential tools is just buying into the corporate ad blitz.
Games were made just fine (well, relatively) up through...what, 2023? 2024? They didn't suddenly become VITAL for budgets or design docs in the last 2-3 years.

Another bill aimed at repealing section 230 has been introduced, this time in the senate
Please continue to advocate for protecting Sec 230 to your reps. We dont know how much support these bills will get yet, but they are obviously trying to push this issue
