Happy solstice.
Remember always that the light returns as the cold sets in.
Hope returns even as everything gets worse.

If you give me GenAI shit for concept art I won't do the project. It tells me you don't actually trust my skill to turn a rough sketch into a final piece nor do you have good enough communication skills to convey what you actually want.
This is the map I created based on their initial concept art.

There isn’t a way to include genAI in any stage of production or development that is appropriate. This is the line. I would sooner never play a video game again.

No, there isn’t a way. There just isn’t. GenAI is poisoning the water supply of Oregon. It’s boiling inland seas.This tech, at scale, is an anti life equation, and all to spit out stolen collages of other people’s work to plug into a pipeline that has to be fixed by an underpaid real human later.

Whelp, Kit Harrington continues to be on my shit list. Guess when your career has collapsed, you gotta try to suck up to the fascist TERF lady.
Sucks, cause I really did like his work in and out of GOT, and I know he had a hard go of it. But fuck him at this point.

So utterly disappointed in Larian/Swen to hear that they have incorporated AI into their process, but *especially* in Concept Art.
That is a role so many illustrators and artists would love to have, and could bring so much creative passion, joy, experience and expression too.

NEW: I spoke to Larian boss Swen Vincke about their ambitions for their new RPG Divinity, cutting down development time, pressures from Baldur's Gate 3, why BG3 wouldn't have happened without Tencent, how Larian uses generative AI, and much more www.bloomberg.com/news/newslet...

Yeah sure it's a bummer when a studio/filmmaker/artist says gen ai is being used, but I have no issue cutting that out of my life because they have announced that humans their creativity and their survival is unimmortant over profit.

GOOD NEWS! Researchers have developed a cancer vaccine that has shown STUNNING results, PREVENTING up to 88% of MULTIPLE aggressive cancers by harnessing dual-pathway nanoparticles that train the immune system to recognize and destroy tumor cells. In some cases, it COMPLETELY prevented metastasis.

The market “fair” rate is - as always - US-centric and in no way acceptable for creators in other countries.
The Bounty Board has also always undervalued creators’ time, energy and worth so this entire dashboard continues to disappoint despite repeated feedback.

Twitch's Sponsorship Dashboard has launched new opportunities for Partners.
Unfortunately, they pay between $0.06 to $0.15 per CCV. (Example image from a 100 CCV streamer below.)
Generally, the market 'fair' rate is $1 - $2 per CCV.
