"Under the guise of technological inevitability, companies are using the AI boom to rewrite the social contract — laying off employees, rehiring them at lower wages, intensifying workloads, and normalizing precarity. [...] AI is not the cause of the layoffs but their justification."
"Countering Big Tech will require a political project to reclaim democratic control over the use to which the products of human intelligence are being put." jacobin.com/2025/10/arti...
The AI Gold Rush Is Cover for a Class War
The tech giants behind the AI boom have become too big to fail and are using their position to mount an assault on labor.

It also misses a HUGE opportunity for dev whimsy.

I remember working on Magic: Duels and badly photoshopping tropical print shirts onto placeholder planeswalkers key art while waiting for the full-res files to come in. Because, y'know, we wanted it to be VERY OBVIOUS it wasn't final
Stop using AI for placeholder assets.
Use sketches. Use lorem ipsum. Use bright pink materials. Use programmer art for fucks sake, literally anything else.
If your studio is using AI even for temp, even if they think they've covered their tracks, SPEAK UP because people WILL FIND IT

thats great advice - thank you. I've definitely been getting the costlier things from costco, but I'll see if theres anything else I can do!

its wild what canadians are 'conservative' about. Especially in Ontario. But yeah - the prescription costs here are HIGH

🚨 Yet again Ted Cruz and Steve Scalise are trying to sneak in a moratorium on state GenAi legislation.

If passed states can no longer enact laws for transparency, child safety, privacy, environmental protection etc.

We got 3 days to stop this. Call now!

the fact that canadians pay for medication like this is ridiculous. A diabetes diagnosis shouldn't be costing me $400-$700 a month.

being next door to america really had an influence, huh?

kudos to the team that worked on Ambrosia Sky for the "make things wet" shader. it's really fun to watch surfaces dry. Yes I'm spraying a corpse
