A podcast album cover for Transplanar RPG’s The Chaos Protocol. The graphic features a purple cloudy background with three character illustrations across the image. From left to right, the characters are Lumièra, Xainan, and Seir. Lumièra is a Black person with dark brown skin, curly/kinky brown hair that is partially braided and streaked with white. Xainan is a masculine person with lavender skin, and dark berry red hair cut short beneath a wide brimmed black hat. Seir is an antlered person with a heavyset frame, brown skin, and shaggy black hair with a lion-like tail. There is text that reads: “The CHAOS Protocol.”

Give folks their flowers

No, I mean right now. Go tell someone you loved their work right now. They're on social media just say it, it has never been easier

"They know how much people love--" no they don't go say it right now to a composer or artist or game dev or writer or anyone AAAAAAAHHHHHHHHH

If *you* have dealt with AI in your workplace—if your boss is forcing it on you or your team, if it's causing your freelance work to dry up, if a manager is threatening to replace you with it, or even if it's made your life wonderful!—I want to hear about it.

The response to this piece has been wild. It quickly became one of my most-read posts, and I've been hearing more and more stories from workers impacted by AI in tech and other sectors. Thanks to all who've read, shared, and reached out.

May also have a couple new scoops to share before too long.
bcmerchant.bsky.social Brian Merchant @bcmerchant.bsky.social · Jun 26
AI is being used to justify firing workers at major tech companies, leaving those that remain to pick up the pieces.

AI code is being shoveled into crucial Google products, replacing trainers at TikTok, and worse.

This, in tech workers' own words, is how AI is killing jobs in Silicon Valley.

Sound design as a job is so laughable. Omw to a recording session now. Yes I'm carrying a suitcase full of junk, a 50 lb box of gravel, and about 10 different pieces of recording equipment. Yes, someone is actually paying me to do this. Goofy...

6 years ago yesterday I married the love of my life. It's been an incredible journey, full of so many once in a lifetime events. I'm thankful that I get to navigate this world with the strength that comes from being in a truly loving partnership. To the moon and back @sassy-composer.bsky.social ❤️
