Because Kweli is a fucking moron. And has proven himself as such for the last several years.
If you still consider Talib to be a reasonable, rational, reputable person in the year 2025; I don't know that you can even read this sentence so I don't care what you think.

Why is Talib Kweli reposting someone saying that the confederate flag and the swastika aren't hate symbols? this is straight up nazi rhetoric that he's endorsing!!

ADDING ONTO THIS AGAIN. FOR MY ANIMATION STUDENTS
any advice telling you:
"Don't be the squeaky wheel."
"Pay your dues." (union dues are ok)
"This is how it is."
- is priming you to accept bad behavior in an industry where it was an open secret that show creators were dating 16 year olds.

I hear a lot of stories about fan artists being contacted by creators. They make you feel special. They can make you feel good. And I love to mentor high school or college students, its so important to me -
but the lack of professional boundaries and accountability in these industries is dangerous

This is an excellent analysis and matches my own thoughts. I was hoping someone with more development expertise could explain the use of ML/AI in Arc Raiders and unpack that both in terms of technical implementation and ethical impact on the broader industry.
The release of Arc Raiders has raised significant concerns about the ethics of utilising generative AI in a AAA game. It’s important we understand that for whatever gains AI delivers, who is losing out, and what impact does that have on the industry?

I think this rubric is a starting point sure but it misses the 2 key and honestly biggest negatives of GenAI/LLM
1) Is the project you're working worth the long lasting and devastating environmental effects of running the server?
2) Is the data you're model running only exist due to stolen work?

I found this metric for evaluating the use of generative AI (and more broadly machine learning) technology in games very useful, as it's a topic on my mind a lot right now. I actually did not have "Enhancement" as one of my criteria but I think he's changed my mind here.

3 years ago today, Riot Games offered me a job making more money than I ever thought I’d make in my life. I had 19 interviews over 2.5 months to get it. Partner and I were moving to LA for it. I put in notice at my job and apartment.
2 weeks later they rescinded the offer due to “headcount issues”.
