Just got off the phone with my folks - definitely wistful, and a little sad. Tends to happen around this time, of course.
I've got my family here, of course, but there's something about the holidays that demands the old house.
Be well, folks. Take care of one another, and of yourselves.

Techbros seem to love Tolkien, so here's an analogy to help you understand what genAI is.
GenAI is The One Ring. You think your use is justified, b/c you don't have evil in your heart.
But it came from evil, it is intended for evil purpose, & anything you do with it will be twisted to that end.

AI is a cancer.
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...

If the administration down south wasn't making so, so many people suffer needlessly, their aggressive incompetence would be laughable. But, alas.

Soooo who in SFWA is using LLMs? Someone fought for this for a reason.
Very disappointed in the new Nebula Award eligibility information from SFWA that allows partially-generated works to be on the ballot. See 9.11.2.

Every time I'm in a restaurant I remember Kevin McAleer's reply to a waiter who told him the Soup Of The Day.
"Where there any other contenders?"
"Um, no?"
"A hollow victory, then".

The US TikTok sale has been signed. The company will be controlled by a joint venture including Oracle, Silver Lake, Andreessen Horowitz, Abu Dhabi-based MGX. Adding a UAE company really makes it clear that this was never about national security concerns.

I highly recommend Final Profit. I describe it as a shop RPG where capitalism is the enemy but you have the great idea to defeat the Business Lords by infiltrating them from within and becoming a Business Lord yourself, and it goes as well as you hope, and also there is a "horse dimension"
It's that special time of year again where it's way too hot in Australia to be putting up with Winter bulls***.
Oh, and Final Profit is 50% off for the Steam Winter Sale ❄️

The year is 2035. There are three game studios left. Each one produces a game every 10 years, killing 250+ developers in the process. They all accidentally make the same game because they used genAI in preproduction. They sell 500 million units each, missing quarterly targets. Everyone is laid off.

It's so frustrating to sit in a chat and hear people who ain't made a game hold forth on "bad development". Just stop.
