Choosing—and yes, it is a CHOICE— to license Harry Potter in 2025 sends a message: "We do not care about trans people."

Posting this to their X but NOT their Bluesky just SHOWS they know they're doing some bigoted shit & just don't wanna get called out for it.

Duolingo announced it was going “AI-first” just over six months ago. Since then its stock is down 64%.

Copilot + PowerPoint = Party mode activated
Just say, “Create a presentation about [your topic] hot takes” (maybe “pumpkin pie versus pecan”). Copilot whips up stylish slides with vibrant images so you can focus on winning the pie debate.](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:mls6ncpewotdpeacozk7lmdz/bafkreiav4csjpwmrealjcxwgx554gtws2kazyqhj7fr7x4xb3d3rukb2ua@jpeg)

I think what everyone is forgetting is that Activison Blizzard is a small, little-known independent company that has to choose between lining the pockets of desperate shareholders, or paying off those evil artists.
Call of Duty isn't even hiding the fact that loads of its calling cards and other unlockables are AI generated this year.
For one of the biggest video game franchises in the world this is pretty disgusting...
