In general, it will strongly benefit you to experience art the "wrong" way from time to time. Watch a sequel first, read the funky scanlation, play the shitty port. See what you get out if it, and how that differs from what people normally get out of it.

Just got told off by an AI bro for refusing to engage with those with zero knowledge or experience in translation who claim AI will make it easier, when it has already demonstrably entered the field like a wrecking ball, making things worse not only for translators but also for readers.
AI advocates: you really need to learn to stop coming off to subject matter experts in other fields as if you’re Kool-Aid manning into the room and going “you’re dumb not to use these tools for your trivially easy jobs”
you may think this is an unfair read on your intentions, but life is unfair.
you may think this is an unfair read on your intentions, but life is unfair.
You absolutely will not convince a bunch of historians and sociologists and whoever else is in this thread that you know more than we do about this and we should use it. I wish you AI enthusiasts would stop wading into our conversations. You have nothing helpful to contribute and are snarky.

Vávra is just outright saying here: I want to shed workforce; I want to pay fewer people for their labor to make the "same" video game.
the lead schmuck from warhorse studios (kingdom come deliverance) identifying a real issue (budgets and dev lengths are too high and long), misconstruing it’s nature (it’s “fact”??? that it has to be this way??), and coming to the conclusion that the dead brain plagiarism bot is our savior. fuck off

I have this tabletop RPG about play superheroes that lays out what being superhumanly intelligent means, and one of the earliest levels is "if you are dropped into a third world country, you will within a few months be solidly middle class via application of your intelligence"

trash decisions hellbent on preparing students for jobs in industries that will collapse before they graduate
Carnegie Mellon’s literature PhD is being liquidated in favor of “computation,” casualized labor, and AI.
That has profound ramifications for, students, faculty, and program alums like myself.
I wrote it about it (w/ Catherine Evans, a current PhD student).
