Here's a small portion of an animated bumper I made to promote a video game from @owlcatgames.bsky.social (Blind Descent). Seeing the latest advances in generative AI and how they've invaded space, I feel lucky to have at least produced this little piece from start to finish 🥲.

Nine printed out Staff of Nin Magic cards except they're called Staff of Iain and a blonde man in a white shirt is holding a scary looking glowing staff while smiling

I forgot to post that I made one of @iainlobb.bsky.social 's favourite Magic cards for his birthday with his face on it so he can put it in every deck #pixelart #mtgalters #mtg

Of all the easy things you can do to help the environment, conserve water for communities not corporations, not perpetuate scams, support the labor and rights of creators... *not* using generative AI is the fucking easiest. You absolutely deserve to be shamed for using it for image and text creation

NetEase and Marvel Rivals do not deserve your time or your money. No game needs GenAI, ESPECIALLY not one this profitable, this got swept under the rug so hard.

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.

My partner's YouTube algorithm is full of people making content about video clips they found online that they don't like, and it's infuriatingly boring. Personally I love giving things I don't like none of my attention

If all the shy people stay at home then we won't be able to get to know them and their cool personalities and the awesome things they make 🥺 also I find that saying you're shy and just want to sit quietly is totally valid, you can join in any chit chat when you feel more comfortable, they won't mind

I’m sharing this video again because people don’t really get what these data centers and ai are doing to our planet and our communities. Especially Black communities because they were strategically placed there.

I need you to listen to these people.
STOP USING AI. STOP SUPPORTING AI.

It's giving Lisa Frank, but I also snuck in geraniums because they stand for stupidity 😌
