When you use an artifically generated image to promote your work, or as part of your work, you come across as artificial yourself.

We all know how the sausage is made. Using those tools is choice, no matter how desperate you are, your budget limitations, or time. It’s a choice that reflects on you.

the idea that lots of gamedevs are secretly using ai is booster bullshit

what on earth would I use genAI tools for? Coming up with ideas? Writing? It’s shit at those

making 3D models? Coding stuff? It’s shit at that too

oh but it’s faster maybe? Did I mention it’s shit at things?

seems important

So, I just went down a Lance Eliot rabbit hole. HES NOT REAL. It's an AI. No one of that name exists in real life. There are Reddit threads dedicated to deep dives on him that show he is an AI. Someone needs to expose @forbes.com for this total scam. Pre 2018, Lance Eliot does not exist.

every AI guy suggesting that you use AI constantly for everything

Quick social media headsup from the olden days: do not subscribe to any blocklists of which you do not -absolutely- know and trust the creator. A lot of trolls will make genuine looking blocklists, and then slowly start adding good people to them. Always verify account names & handles!
