My kid’s new school has sent home a really detailed letter and poster about “the dangers of the use of AI” and actually maybe her going there has been the best thing after all? She also came home with two certificates yesterday for being the most inclusive kid in year 7 and for excellence in PE😍🥲

Here it is folks, I really, really, really need your help, especially with boosting/spreading the word, so this can "escape" out of containment.

Please remember there is no algorithm boost here, so every repost counts

Thank you

I believe that a real, tangible way of slowing/stopping rising radicalization is to demand Apple remove Twitter from the App Store *immediately*, - through petitions or protests, - they are at this point enabling a neonazi propaganda machine that is a threat to society, - it *can* be shut down.

@cwbuecheler.com Hey Chris, just wanted to suggest a feature for embedding replies from a bluesky post to a website post, - for example posting a piece of concept art on bsky+website, then mirroring onto a kind of comment section underneath web post with an embed. (Just a random stream of thought.)

This applies to adjacent creative industries as well, - I was lucky that this period coincided with my decision to go independent, - I’d prepared my exit from the corporate world prior, then watched the industry burn by Ai in the rear mirror.

Keep your network of peers close to weather this storm.
I can't emphasize this enough: If you're struggling to find work in games, you're not the only one and please don't blame yourself. The horrible state of the industry is unprecedented. The crash in the 80s and the recession in the late 2000s weren't as rough as this. There are so few opportunities.

A month ago it was 389 pages. Now Grokipedia has pulled in Tedium links in 1,336 pages.

Worse, check the recent search results for "tedium.co" on Google.

#Grokipedia is not just nicking content from Wikipedia. It is stealing from independent publishers.

I always believed a creator must stay in the background to let the work speak for itself, but as they try to separate the art from the artist it’s important be stand up & testify your ownership, - put a bio snippet or behind-the-scenes feature in your game, - audiences should know *more* about you.

All AI music does is devalue the work done by human artists. It’s not accessibility, it’s exploitation. We need real protections for artists against AI!

BTW — even if you had access to this AI startup as a child, you still wouldn’t know how to make music.

🎯 I hope to see Gen-Z catch the bug for personal websites to ensure they have *some* online autonomy left.
Personal websites would be the way to go - these days social media handles aren't future proof... I regret putting a "tweet" button in past games for example lol.

This is the way, I’d even go further and include social media handles in the credits.
