I'm looking for concept artists or illustrators working in gamedev who would like to share thoughts or comments (anonymous or attributed) regarding the use of GenAI as a reference tool in their process.
If that's you, DM or email me! Details in bio.

Every writer who generates a slop image for their work is a class traitor.
"I can't afford a visual artist"
So your solution is stabbing artists in the back? Stealing from them?
Furthermore, slop-generated imagery suggests slop-generated writing. That's how you're presenting yourself.

Saw Hamnet last night and I can't stop thinking about the moving, powerhouse performances by everyone in the cast. It's haunting, lovely and will make you sob like a baby

I never watched the original Jumanji as a kid because it looked scary. We were watching it last night and IT IS SCARY! It's a horror movie for kids! I kind of love that we had that in the 90s.

Oh, here's a big surprise. The transphobes don't believe in ADHD either.
then, the transphobes , feeling victorious at how many people they have made unhappy and despairing in the previous week, move on to anything else that has a spectrum and the possibility of more colours than they can conceive - such hateful people - they cannot understand anything that is not THEM

I watched Wong Kar Wai's english language film "My Blueberry Nights" a few days ago and even though I thought it was a middling film, I still can't stop thinking about it. It's beautifully shot, melancholic, episodic and something I think is worth a view.
