There is a certain level of hyping up of a video game that just triggers my sense of disbelief, especially if it’s a game I've played before. Because I know if I express a mild dissenting opinion it is a matter of seconds before I get talked down to. Even if I still genuinely think the game is good.

Tomorrow I will go back to regular posting again.
There is sadly not much else I can do other than spread awareness in this situation. It sucks but it's reality 😓
@/xel44lex will continue to trace AI like nothing happened.
It's up to you whether you want to continue to support them or not.

I think if a company routinely fucks up my service and forces me to use an AI chat bot thats incapable of understanding what the problem is, I should be allowed to plummet the stock price by 90%

The ribbon is blending with the pants and isn't attached to the bikini slip at all. A legit artist does not make simple mistakes like these, even beginners don't.
Looks to be that they trace over AI and present is as their own work. This is extremely disappointing..

The confusion and conflation of ‘generative ai that is built on stolen artwork’ and ‘machine learning, character behaviour modelling and proc gen’ is intentional on the part of the grifters peddling the former. They benefit from murkiness of classification, because the latter predates their bollocks

Zero tolerance is the ONLY and FITTING response to genAI being used in production of media.
Sure, you might think it's too harsh. Sure, they might've only used it for early stuff in development, etc
Listen, it's not even a SLIPPERY slope, there is NO friction at all unless we speak out against it.

this field biologist does a great job highlighting the insidiousness of AI editing
these one-click AI edit buttons are incredibly appealing to many photographers, amateurs and professionals alike, and are framed as innocuous
this is worth sharing and educating people about

I understand that a lot of folks have been misled by fear-mongering and powerful regressive voices but it’s still astonishing to me that so many have fallen for the idea that oppressively policing other people’s gender identity and expression could in any way be part of an enlightened future.

Game Awards last year took place during a videogame strike against AI
The strike wasn’t mentioned or acknowledged despite many VO performers working on the games that are heralded every year and even appearing on stage
This year a game that features AI voiceover gets a podium to accept an award.

I really hate that gacha is so popular
you could be playing games designed primarily to be enjoyed instead, like just pay once and bam you've got a whole ass game that you're meant to just, play it for fun
why are you playing the game that is explicitly designed to make you dissatisfied
