The thing thats so insidious about using AI this way is that one of the main ways artists get hired are studios looking for art references and they find us and reach out.

This is removing a major avenue to get work if they can just generate nameless derivations of our ideas.
Swen Vincke @LarAtLarian Holy fuck guys we’re not "pushing hard" for or replacing concept artists with AI. We have a team of 72 artists of which 23 are concept artists and we are hiring more. The art they create is original and I’m very proud of what they do. I was asked explicitly about concept art and our use of Gen AI. I answered that we use it to explore things. I didn’t say we use it to develop concept art. The artists do that. And they are indeed world class artists. We use AI tools to explore references, just like we use google and art books. At the very early ideation stages we use it as a rough outline for composition which we replace with original concept art. There is no comparison. I talked about how we use ML here if you would like to know more: https://gamespot.com/articles/baldurs-gate-3-dev-embraces-machine-learning-for-tasks-that-nobody-wants-to-do/1100-6531123/ We've hired creatives for their talent, not for their ability to do what a machine suggests, but they can experiment with these tools to make their lives easier.

Thank you, @repmarcveasey.bsky.social, for noting permanent Daylight Saving Time’s failed and dangerous history! Permanent Standard Time instead would give most Americans a little more time for sleep in the morning. Amend or replace the “Sunshine Protection Act”!

Good morning friends! It’s a balmy 25 degrees outside and there’s some ice on the cove. Here’s today’s #SunriseMagic on the #CTShoreline with some #clouds I hope you have a wonderful day! Go outside if you can! #landscape #photography #reflections
Scattered gray clouds hovering over the cove and in the distance is golden light from the sun rising. In the distance there is ice on the water. The sky and landscape are reflecting on the calm waters.
