An Interview with Elizabeth Hargrave - Zatu Games
I was very fortunate to have a conversation with Elizabeth Hargrave, probably best known as the designer of multi-award winning Wingspan!

This is starting to get like universal basic income where every single objective study shows the same result but the people who don't like that result go "uh, well there's just really no way to know"

I have a lot of thoughts about the "I can generate 200 books a year you can only do 2 at most if you actually write the things, I win" bullshit, and no time to yell about all of it. So I'll just say this:

bane voice: you merely adopted "coping with rejection sensitivity", I was born in it
The point of the AI project is to provoke despair in creative people. They haven’t produced profits or anything anyone wants, just a steady stream of articles about how us artistic types can’t do the thing we’re already doing, making art. Jokes on them, we’re even better at despair than they are.

The whole article is repulsive but this passage is at the core of it. She has no interest in writing books, she wants to win some kind of competition that nobody entered

I’m not arguing with no account defending AI. My grandmother lives in an area being environmentally compromised currently by an ai data center. I remember the color of the lake before they built it and the sludge I see in it when I go to see her. Shut the fuck up about “the benefits of AI” forever.

So I went with "what if courtly love at the tournament, but make it gay?" 💜

So they've stolen everyone's art for their slop machine and now holding it hostage for anyone else to see it. Tech companies are driving for a future where making art is a privilege and viewing art is a luxury between submerging yourself in a feed bag of algorithmic hallucinations.
I just got this notification from this trial Meta is conducting. For art to be seen, fees are required. No more likes because your work is interesting to ppl, it is all just paid access to huge audiences. And these are just starting fees, they go up after a month. 👎😬😭

the end result of AI image, video, and audio generation is that society will no longer be able to rely on images or video or audio to represent reality. Children born today will never be able to assume that just because they have seen something on a screen that it is likely to be true.

If we are not careful AI is going to be this century's automobile.
Habit-forming, insufficiently regulated, increasingly depended upon, environmentally harmful and, inevitably, a frustration that our society begins to regret yet is so tied into that it requires colossal effort to disentangle from.

Just as a sanity check I tested Chat GPT image generation and see how the current model deals with art direction. Still absolute garbage.
A) there is a 5 img generation limit without paying money. Which is the reason, the web is full of just first diceroll image slop. /1

Conflating machine learning tools with GenAI and LLMs are such a favorite of these bad faith arguments, too. Like, machines studying X-rays to better understand cancer is not the same thing as Open AI swallowing all my books via piracy to regurgitate sentences that sound similar. It's just not.
