Please please please for the love of god don't fall for the "AI is democratizing creativity and making it more accessible" lie that AI companies have been pushing ever since this shit first started.

If you think AI "art" is good for anything besides making tech bros rich you have been fooled

A collaboration between me and the label HDK.

Soundtrack written for "HDK's Adventurers Magazine #6", where each issue features a group of dungeon crawler synthesizer musicians who compose the soundtracks for many "one-page dungeons".

A close-up photo of a Roman tile, featuring a clearly imprinted footprint of a small child's right foo. The tiles shows a rough, broken edge on the left and top, with the detailed five-toed impression visible on the worn surface against a neutral gray background.

A childโ€™s footprint frozen in time - pressed into a #Roman tile as it dried before firing nearly 1,800 years ago.

A tiny, timeless reminder of everyday life in the ancient world.

Over 50% of game developers now think generative AI is bad for the industry, a dramatic increase from just 2 years ago: 'I'd rather quit the industry than use generative AI' The latest GDC survey also found that managers are more likely to use generative AI than their employees.

"Our standing rule is: If one of us brings up using GenAI in any of our work, then it's safe to assume we've been assimilated by The Thing and should be burned alive by Kurt Russell," said a game design consultant in the US.

"Ethical AI" does not exist. There is no reality where you can have generative AI that's "ethically trained". There are ZERO AI models trained ethically, and there will never be any.

The term has been made up by people who want a pass on using AI. You don't get that pass, slop peddlers.

Pinterest cuts up to 15% jobs to prioritize AI push, shares sink Pinterest will trim less than 15% of its workforce, the social media platform said on Tuesday, as it plans to reallocate resources to its artificial intelligence-focused roles and strategy.

Does anyone have an alternative to Pinterest or would like to work together to build a new one?

Tumblr post by stimmyabby

Sometimes people use "respect" to mean "treating someone like a person" and sometimes they use "respect" to mean "treating someone like an authority"

and sometimes people who are used to being treated like an authority say "if you won't respect me I won't respect you" and they mean "if you won't treat me like an authority I won't treat you like a person"

and they think they're being fair but they aren't, and it's not okay.

Also this is maybe a frivolous little aside, but indulge me:

Putting genuine work out into the world is important because it is necessary to create the kind of environment where people know what the real thing looks like so they can more easily recognize and call out the bullshit when they see it.
