I don't care if you're "only using it for conceptualization" or "vision coordination"
You can just like, not use it. Period.
Just use google. Look up actual artists. Maybe more of their work will inspire you, hell maybe you'll even want to hire them.

I cannot stress how easy it is for anyone to just not use Generative Ai
I mean look! I’m doing it right now! It’s that easy!

while using GenAi for things like placeholder art is imo not nearly as bad as trying to put it in your final product, it is still important to recognize that is still a really bad idea
there's really no need for placeholder art to look good, it's just what it is, a placeholder

Wow, so the Epstein files were finally "released" and they're unironically more redacted than SCP-579, which is a parody SCP making fun of how redacted some articles can be
And despite that, they *still* managed to miss one!
It's like where's waldo for pedophiles!

Can I just say that Paid Weapon skins still hurt my soul in #MonsterHunter?
For the Omega crossover event we got a whopping 3 weapons, but don't worry Capcom was able to grace us with a full set of weapon skins that could have been omega weapons, but now you have to pay for them

AI has actively made life worse for literally everyone
- tech is now more expensive
- you cannot trust most media of reality anymore
- programs barely function
- energy prices
- literal psychosis
- your voice can be literally stolen for evil
- more spyware
but hey, you can avoid paying an artist.

This really is the biggest lie rich people tell you. It is literally impossible to make billions of dollars through hard work alone. It really just comes down to luck, often being born into wealth, and still being greedy enough to want more despite that
Michael C. Rockefeller got shipwrecked in 1963, washed up on an island, and was promptly eaten by cannibals.

A lot of people have been calling Highguard "Concord 2" and I feel like people have forgotten just how absurdly bland Concord was lol
Sure it's not a high bar to clear, but I think highguard looks a lot better than Concord ever did. Plus being Free already makes the devs a lot smarter lol

Like many people, I was surprised at E33 getting best indie game since it's such a nebulous category as to what counts as an indie game and E33 feels AA at least
But apparently the budget for E33 was smaller than Hades 2!?

The fact that The Game Awards started by just playing the best song in Expedition 33 without prompting was basically them admitting up front "yeah E33 won every award tonight"

So apparently Expedition 33 broke the record for most awards won at TGAs, surpassing The Last of Us and Baldur's Gate 3
and honestly it deserves it, even in a year as stacked as this one

Usually when a puritanical legal prohibition ends, the stigma fades, and the screams of the purse-clutchers are replaced with shrugs. I'm thinking e.g. weed, gay marriage. Gambling is fascinating for being the opposite. "This affects me more than I thought it would, and it's worse than I imagined".
