"people can still download your art from bsky and feed it into AI" if gamer behavior has taught me anything, just one extra button press is more than enough to annoy a MASSIVE amount of people into not making the effort

This time of year is fucking hard. The holidays are a fertile ground for dark thoughts. Loneliness can drown you, even when you're surrounded by people. Take care of yourself. If you feel like you're drowning in darkness, please talk to someone. Friend, family, stranger. Anyone.

You deserve love.

For all the newcomers here: please post regularly. I'm tired of dudes migrating here, posting once every other month, and then going back to Twitter complaining that Bluesky is dead.

Please repost your friends' stuff too.

To the influx of artists and people about to join in from another stupid move by shitty bird app, actually use this place. Genuinely, if you just make an account and leave, then there's no point. Try to post here whenever you can.

Mhh yeah sounds like Twitter to add an actual theft button
Happy holidays to everyone still feeling to share their art there
Heads up to artists still using Twitter- Twitter is now adding an "Edit image" button under all images posted on the site that allows everyone to feed it into genAI and modify it as they wish with a prompt

This is sinister. If you're wondering why so many people don't report sexual assault, this is why.
jesus the Palm Beach Police really sought arrest warrants against underage Epstein victims for coming forward and cooperating, and (purported) admitting to crimes, and it caused the victims to become uncooperative with the federal investigation

"we USE ai, but our game wont CONTAIN it" is a clarification that no one has ever cared about & now CEOs are using it as a wedge to get their foot in the door as a part of a long term plan into normalizing AI, just like how 'it's just placeholder' was used with E33. dont cede even an inch of ground

In the past week, I've seen stories of AI:
- being used by middle schoolers to make porn of other students
- calling innocent people sex offenders
- shutting down highways with busted-ass self-driving cars
- emitting more CO2 than New York City

What the fuck are we even doing?
New from me: The storied fiddler Ashley MacIsaac wanted to play a show at a Nova Scotia First Nation. It got cancelled because Google's AI search summary incorrectly called him a sex offender. Now he's worried for his safety www.theglobeandmail.com/culture/arti...

The whole "Bari Weiss tried to smother a story about American concentration camps but forgot to scrub it from international sites resulting in it being massively popular" thing really hammers home that for all the horrors we've seen this past year these people are wildly incompetent and WILL fail

This is the conservative/Bari Weiss vision of free speech: wherein conservatives are free to control all speech
All of these bootlegged copies of the 60 Minutes segment flooding my feed (saying, ‘Watch it quick! Before it disappears!’) makes me feel like I’m in the Soviet Union and just got some black market foreign newspaper I need to hide under a floorboard in my house.

This is where America is now

"if you drop any game that's used genAI, you'll be dropping most games!!!!"

good. there's decades worth of art and currently new indie devs not hopping on the bangwagon. i can skip witcher 4, cyberpunk 2, e34, kingdom come 3, helldivers 3, literally any fucking game you put there.

i think if you use genai for anything, even writing an email, you're both a moron and a huge baby, and i dont want to play your video game as a result. its not that hard!
As the backlash to generative AI in video games continues to pick up steam heading into 2026, it'll be fascinating to see what is considered "made with generative AI." Can a dev team say they're not using AI if they're writing design docs with Copilot or using chatGPT to make schedules and budgets?

Slay the Princess and Scarlet Hollow are both horror games, but even people who don't typically like horror have a great time, so don't let that stop you!

Our games don't have jump scares, and have heart, romance and comedy woven into their nests of dread.

Both are on sale RIGHT NOW.
