Viewers/readers/players anticipating your plot twists in advance is GOOD ACTUALLY.
YOU DID A GOOD JOB WHY WOULD YOU RUIN IT. YOUR JOB ISN'T TO OUTSMART YOUR AUDIENCE. UNGUESSABLE PLOT TWISTS ARE BAD TWISTS.

I did this survey on Linkedin regarding Adobe Firefly. If my followers weren't game trailer people I suspect numbers would be very different, but I'm still heartened.
I don't work in tech, if 87% of users don't use the feature you're spending a bajillion dollars developing, is that bad? 🫠

Let me give some insight on this, as a producer in the dub industry who worked with major streamers, who's witnessed first-hand where this push for AI is coming from.
tl;dr: Only CEOs want this. Tell them how much you hate it. Be loud, email, call, @, post. You will kill this.

The only thing less human than these AI dub performances is the decision to sign off on them
A company this big can pay human actors a decent wage, not produce slop that intentionally removes the human element.

Oxford University Press has chosen “rage bait” as its 2025 Word of the Year. The open-compound word, which beat out “biohack” and “aura farming,” goes back at least to 2002. www.nytimes.com/2025/11/30/a...

This is what happened to me. Employers across the board need to be aware of how harassment campaigns work and do better to protect their employees from them. These people should not have a platform to profit off of harassment.

It was important for me to have a woman report on my story and I’m forever grateful of the care that Alyssa put into this. Talking to the press as a game dev is seen as something you just can’t do without repercussions but she has the experience & first hand insight on harassment campaigns
Drew Harrison loved her job and was at Sucker Punch for nearly a decade. I commend her bravery for speaking to me after facing the ire of the most rabid corners of the gamer internet.

Why am I so against generative AI in games?
Because I simply do not want my initial reaction to art to be one of suspicion and scrutiny, AI slop is fundamentally damaging my relationship to art and artistry, and I am deeply resentful that it is forcing me to be guarded when I should be wowed.

Not to be the fun police but I do hope people know that Arc Raiders does use generative AI for voice acting, and by supporting the game you're letting higher-ups know that this is an okay practice.
They try to downplay this on the Steam store page by describing the AI usage as vaguely as possible.

I really love the games this company creates but mentally it gets harder to support them especially reading they want to "automate 70% of QA and debugging tasks" by late 2027.

Finished the First Ending of Silent Hill f.
My God what a Horror game.
Clearly there is more story, and I think lowering the difficulty will make me appreciate the game/combat more. I get burned out kinda fast but MAN is the story worth it. So compelling and so so weird.
Also glad NG+ is worth!

Something that ran through my head as I saw descriptions for Steam Next Fest games: if the project uses gen AI, it’s an instant skip
Yes, even if it’s “just” for store assets
However it’s intended, it LOOKS like an active gap in your craft, and there’s infinite other games to spend my time on
