Deeply disappointed in Larian’s stance on generative AI. Trust your talented employees and stop conceding to this garbage tech used to delete jobs and burn the planet.

The Arc de Triomphe was commissioned to honor Napoleon in 1806. By the time construction had really begun in earnest, Napoleon had suffered a disastrous military defeat and had been forced into exile.
Trump: We’re building an arc like the Arc de Triomphe. It will be like the one in Paris but it blows it away.

Huge thanks to everyone who has commissioned art from me! Pumped to do more 😎 I’ve updated my pricing a bit, for those who are interested. There’s a limited quantity for each but also plenty still available! ko-fi.com/stephenhilge...

Every time someone writes a smug poorly-argued AI article like this, they’re simply demonstrating how swiftly AI has already transformed said writer’s critical thinking into a rotten log on the forest floor, studded with grubs and slime mold, gently disintegrating into humus even as we watch.
The NYT Magazine asked me and @caseynewton.bsky.social to open their AI issue by talking about how we use AI, why it's not going away, and how you can't be a serious critic if you're in denial about how useful it is. Bluesky's gonna love this one!
