YouTube removed another of my anti-videogame gambling videos for being pro-gambling.

What a fucking farce of a website.

I was watching Home Alone and Indiana Jones and having a nice relaxing time with family and the new pupper, who got absolutely spoiled. He got a toy bone with his name on it! LOOKIT IM! 🐶🦴

“How can you suddenly dislike art when you find out it’s made by AI?”

For the same reason I can dislike art when I find out the employees were overworked and underpaid.

Because I care about people.

You dipshit.

Okay real talk, the only sense in which GenAI is "here to stay" is that even after the bubble pops, AI is digital asbestos that is poisoning everything and we'll probably be picking the detritus out of everywhere it's ended up for years, assuming there's a will to remove it en masse that is.

You know what you can use to generate ideas? A brain.

I don't believe people when they say they need this abysmal tech to generate ideas, I think they're lying, but people are so disgusted with the tech being used to replace people's jobs, they don't exactly want to admit to what they're doing.
I just saw someone yell “they’re just using it to generate ideas!”

And

I hate to say it

But if you work in the ART DEPARTMENT and you need a death machine stuffed with your colleagues’ work to give you ideas

Quit.

So look man if we're just gonna be online here watching all these big studios come out and lay down on the tracks about Gen AI going "I have to do this for some reason." then I think it's more important than ever to celebrate games from based devs who are out here openly posting "Nuh uh, fuck that."

Don’t let CEOs quibble over how much they’re pushing for AI. Regurgitative AI is a plagiaristic poison, to use any amount of it is to use it too much.

They want the concessions, because concessions can creep. Zero tolerance is the only way to say no to it.

Executives are like very young children. Pretend to pull a coin from behind their ear, tell them it’s magic, and watch them become mystified.

Except children grow out of it. Executives invest billions into every hole they’re told is magic and expect money to come squirting out.

if you're an artist, writer, musician, creative, if you have a dream and you can't stop thinking about it, write it down and channel it into your creative process!!!

“AI is just being used as a placeholder” is the new “I am a fucking dickhead.”

At this point if you don't explicitly say you're anti GenAI I don't trust you

It's giving "oh I'm apolitical"

Ah yes the old "but guys we gotta use it. What if the lying, plagiarizing machine that isn't actually speeding up work and is the antithesis to creativity that everybody hates is good though?"
If I had known the two paragraphs about genAI in my article today would be so controversial, I would have expanded them a bit! Here's a rough transcript of the relevant portion of my interview with Swen Vincke, so everyone has all the context. (Full article here: www.bloomberg.com/news/newslet...)

"we USE ai, but our game wont CONTAIN it" is a clarification that no one has ever cared about & now CEOs are using it as a wedge to get their foot in the door as a part of a long term plan into normalizing AI, just like how 'it's just placeholder' was used with E33. dont cede even an inch of ground

I see the “you hate AI but what if you didn’t?” articles are revving their engines.

Fuck off. You write a thinkpiece of shit like that, you betray the art of writing.

Everyone loves AI so much that companies have to quietly smuggle it into our lives and hope nobody notices.

That’s definitely what popularity looks like!

Honestly, it's equal parts amazing and embarrassing how inept YouTube is at running their own platform.
Update: YouTube straight up removed another video about loot boxes. They’re just hitting anything that mentions gambling regardless of context.

What a ridiculous platform.
YouTube restricted an old video about loot boxes being restricted by gambling laws under the “sale of regulated goods policy.”

Yes YouTube, my vids famously “depict or promote” gambling. Those years of anti-loot box videos were secretly pro-loot box the entire time, you ridiculous dumbfuck site 😂.
