WSJ: โ€œ.. If the AI market blows up, the blast radius would be wide, hitting not only Wall Street firms, but also pensions, mutual and exchange-traded funds and individual investors, because of how debt is often sliced and resold across the financial landscape.โ€

A huge billboard with no ad, but a street artist painted Skeletor with his arms raised in fists above his head. The words "SKELETOR" are above, and "UP IN THIS MOTHERFUCKER" below.  Some human made this art, and some human took a picture of it - which is also art.

I thought the earlier news from A&M was bad, but this is incredibly bleak. Itโ€™s close to the point of not having a functional university.

A thread by an A&M professor describing how the new rules will impact faculty. Syllabi must be fed into AI to be checked for content not aligned with approved syllabi; students will be encouraged to report faculty  for inaccurate content; and young people are now being told they get to decide what a professor should teach.

we'll be dropping a big GDC-themed @unboxingpod.bsky.social ep tomorrow, but for now: the survey at long last offers respondent segmentation. You'll be asked questions that speak coherently to your specific industry and role.

I want good data for future historians. GET IN THERE.

to my games ppl: devs, journos, students, teachers, investors, and not-for-profit weirdos:

The annual GDC State of the Industry survey just dropped. I consulted on this year's survey and promise the experience will feel both better targeted AND shorter.

What I found hilarious was getting the honor of being future class and then told we couldnt walk the red carpet. What was the nail in the head for me was being put in a corner a few years ago behind the camera and then made to feel like we should be thankful for even being in the room.
