I know I'm small potatoes, so I didn't expect a big response. But nothing?? Maybe people don't want to admit they now support plagiarism?

AI coding enthusiasts, how do you feel about plagiarism, as a general concept? If you're against it, how do you reconcile that with your use of generative AI?

Genuine question; I'm not trying to start a debate. But I can't disconnect the two.

assembling FINAL FANTASY VII walkmeshes to see how they fit together (thanks @onetrickwolf.bsky.social for JSON dumps of the geometry). probably should've tried this before i drew the big Midgar map but still cool. maybe could use these as a basis for area detail maps. some comments in alt text

Sony patents a lot of things that they never do anything with. Hopefully this is one of them.

It's been over a year... I'm finally writing a new Siren devlog. It's so hard to focus on it, though, when I could just be working on the project instead. Expect it sometime before the end of the month. ☕🦀

Another Reminder: Siren is being developed without the use of GenAI.
#gamedev #programming
Honestly I can’t wait for all gamers to join us artists in fighting the GenAI bullshit ngl

It’s still kinda messy…. They’re like mixed, some hate artists and love GenAI while others despise GenAI and support artists
I’m so tired of GenAI, not only is it affecting artists but also gamers and computer users ughhh

This will obviously fail. They have to know that, right?! Is this just more AI-hype, and they assume we'll forget about this by 2030?

An operating system needs to do two things:
- Run my programs
- Help me find my files

Everything else is just noise.
