I giggle like a madman every time I am reminded of this.

...so like two blog posts of mine, sounds decently short to me! 😉

Then again, I suppose with titles like "18000/25000/100000 Line Perfection of Wisdom Sutra", "short" really is a relative term.

I just got my backpay today, economy ain't no problem for this indulgence

I've installed malware on my computer before, but I was, like, 12. Why should I trust a program with the reasoning of a 12-year old again? And why should anyone be pushing an "artificial intelligence" WITH the reasoning of a 12-year old?

I think that's an extremely fair and nuanced middle ground, a compromise position that is practical, because the ideal situation is to never have utilized AI slop in the first place, but you still have the opportunity to remove it. There's your moment of grace, don't abuse it.

If your game has been using AI assets in production, remove them, hire artists or voice actors or composers to replace the slop, it's not too late to course correct, just get rid of it before release, excise the slop. And that's the compromise position, because people still might not trust you.

I care that the art I engage with is made by humans, regardless of how "good" the tech may become, that is the underlying contention, that is important to me and cannot be bargained away. I'm sick of hearing about compromise this and middle ground that, do you want to hear my compromise?

Remove it.

I am constantly aggravated by this tech, it is foisting so much extra work on me, because throughout the last couple of years, the sheer amount of games using generative AI that are flooding my inbox, many that DO NOT DISCLOSE THIS, is forcing me to scrutinize everything that ends up in my inbox.

it is somehow—and I truly do not know how or when it happened—3am but I made myself a shiviti for my house in inkscape based on several dozen examples I found online and now I'm very going to bed now

Update: it is still cold.

The post series is just my analysis and commentary on it, but if you'd like my English translation of the text, it's available on my Etsy and Ko-fi for just US$10!

While I did my best to dig into the system as much as I could, and was able to get some insights into how it came about in the historical context it did, there are still some open questions that I can't answer on my own. Who knows, perhaps you might be the one to pick up those loose threads!
