Haha yeah I've realized that I'm really good at language acquisition (at least when it comes to domain terminology), and I can learn to "talk the talk" quickly. It definitely increases perception of competence. Real competence can definitely coexist, but something to think about.
We are ✨less than $2000 from goal,✨ gang.
It’s down to the wire! We can absolutely do this in the four days we have left a fund, but we need your help!
Please throw in to help Sleeping Wizards over the finish line!

We are LESS THAN $60 AWAY from $16,000!! The goal for Sleeping Wizards is WITHIN REACH!

Please read and share. The “grassroots” support for the SAVE America Act is a lie. The campaign pushing this bill is being run by Cleta Mitchell and Scott Presler, two of the most notorious election deniers in the country.
Haha same, their wizardry is far beyond my mortal skills 😅
Ahhh that's awesome!! I love it 🤩
"What the hell did I get myself into" is a common facial expression in this industry 😅

Same! It's one of my current favorites 😁
Our troops are dying this isn’t a video game. The White House is posting so-called “hype” videos that mix real footage from the war in Iran with clips from movies and video games like Call of Duty. It’s an absolute disgrace.
Hey board gamers - your feelings an opinions about games are being turned into slop.
There's a channel called Board Game Critique. All their videos are clearly made with AI. They fess up to this, but they claim that they write their own scripts.
I cannot definitively prove that they don't, but 1/x
Yeah. This brought up the memories and how pissed off I still am!
I hope we’re still collectively processing that AEG and the boardgaming consciousness draw the line at being pro-AI and lowering the value of game designers…
But don’t draw the line at the insane levels of misogyny exhibited only 2 years ago?
It’s wild to me he wasn’t booted to high hell sooner…
On the surface, it sounds plausible, but if you think critically (ironically 😅) it all breaks down.
Like, players are playing identically by each picking cards and tiles? Those are just the rules of the game!! People are all trying to choose components that give them more points? That's the definition of strategy!
Gross. The thing is if you listen with even half an ear the videos make no sense. As soon as AI gets into any level of technical detail, it falls apart. Twice in a row (Splendor and Azul) the video said players end up playing "identically." This is an impossibility in any game with randomization!!
Thanks Danny 😁
Haha I know right?! Every now and then I get a good one and use it for everything for the next 5 years 😅
Thanks Alan!
