Just because you CAN build for insane profit, off the backs of exploitation and theft, doesnโ€™t mean you HAVE to.
Iโ€™ll reserve judgement as to if this is a reality, but on paper itโ€™s really nice to see advancements in this field thatโ€™s done in a potentially ethical capacity.

Clark Kent would never use AI. He'd see it as dishonest and unethical. Also, because journalism is the one thing Clark is good at that doesn't require a superpower. He takes pride in it.

Lois Lane would rip a new one in any Planet reporter using AI. Perry would fire them.

Screenshot of a post from me in which I shared a gif of the harbor in Demonschool with the ferry docked, in which the ferry bobs up and down and it generally looks chill with lights in the rails, brown wood, and a calm vibe. The text says "I want demonschool to be finished AND I want to live there"

Post from the Necrosoft account saying "hello this is us. Please buy our "persona like.""

There has been some debate over whether bluesky is good for game promotion or whether actual consumers are here. As a test, last week we did two posts with mid-level performance - one from the company account, one from mine - and got ~900 wishlists. There was no other promo elsewhere. Pretty solid.
