I just shared this with a friend and yelled HE'S ON A MISSION FROM GOD.
What's from Chicago, hates Illinois Nazis, and is holy as fuck?

It's the Pope in 1982.

I gave my players the Deck of Many Things today.

It was even more chaotic than I’d hoped.

If AI empowered you in any way, they would charge you to use it.

German court rules that OpenAI violated copyright laws by training ChatGPT on music 🎵

• May set precedent for Europe AI copyright uses

• OpenAI disagrees & can appeal

My biggest hope for Fortune’s Weave is that we get to dismantle the status quo *without* working with fascists.

Having the Slitherfucks infesting Crimson Flower ruined that route for me ngl.

What you have right now are execs throwing AI at anything and everything it could possibly be used for in the hopes that *something* will stick. And I've yet to speak to anyone on the inside who says it's doing so well. So who'll get blamed, in the long run, when that becomes impossible to ignore?

I mean, let's break it down: AI doesn't produce useful assets. It doesn't produce useful code or writing. At best, you need humans to manage and edit the product to the point where it becomes mediocre (and that's generous). If mediocre is what you're aiming for... all good, I guess?

AI enthusiasts keep saying "but it'll only get better!", as if an AI singularity is just around the corner. It just needs more money, more time, more training, and eventually it will do all the things it's promising... and until then, you better not miss out!

Miss out on what, exactly? 🤔

Weird how the free market did not, in fact, lead to the best and brightest dominating every industry. It just allowed a bunch of scam artists to rip off customers worldwide while pushing snake oil on the rest of us.

Almost like the core tenant of neoliberalism was always bullshit or something.

Nexon’s CEO is a fucking liar btw.

This is an attempt at normalisation, and we shouldn’t fall for it.

Everything they told you could happen under communism has *already* happened under capitalism.

We live in capitalism. Its power seems inescapable. So did the divine right of kings. Any human power can be resisted and changed by human beings. Resistance and change often begin in art, and very often in our art, the art of words.
