This is the thing I keep trying to get through to people. Authorial meaning and intention is the fundamental underlying structure of writing, not “a world full of people who can say anything”. We live in a world full of people who can say anything! That’s not what we’re trying to achieve here!

AI dialogue in games is so stupid. If a studio hired 100 junior writers at fractional cents a word to write reams of mediocre and utterly meaningless dialogue for NPCs nobody would engage with that dialogue because it doesn't contribute anything. even if AI dialogue wasn't bad it'd be just like that

An easy way to explain luddites:

Textile manufacturers brought in machines that could do in an hour what would have taken 12 hours by hand.

And then, tried to keep paying the now 12x more productive workers the same wages as before.

That's it, that was the problem luddites had. Not complex.

“AI is clearly sticking around so you have to get used to it” wrong. I don’t have to get used to shit. I am a practiced hater and I can keep this going for decades if I am required to

La única forma que tenemos de parar esto es dejar de consumir, pagar y jugar todo videojuego que se sepa o note que ha usado IAgen. Y por supuesto señalarlo y criticarlo en todas partes, con reseña negativa en la tienda si se puede. Es lo único que nos queda.

SO... I'm pretty much done with Fortnite. There were statements made by Tim Sweeney saying that AI usage doesn't need to be disclosed, and then AI usage was found all over this current season- from art to sprays to in-game songs. Between that, and the upcoming shitty wizard collab... Yeah, I'm done.
An image of a poster in the current Fortnite map. It shows a Yeti relaxing in a hammock. Notably, the Yeti has 4 toes on one foot and 5 on the other, indicating AI usage. An image of a poster on the current Fortnite map. The image shows a Tomato-headed character wearing a suit as if he was in a talk show. The art has strange proportions and odd details, along with many other markers of generative AI usage. A screenshot of a spray included in the current Fortnite battlepass. The spray depicts Marty McFly from Back to the Future, but it is using a filter that gives him the appearance of Studio Ghibli art. That, combined with other details in the background like improperly sized clock hands, are markers of generative AI usage. A screenshot of an album cover for a song called Latata by a group called Mic Drop. Mic Drop is a generative AI-using song library, and Fortnite has included an emote that uses this AI-generated song as a music track.

We *really* need to actively differentiate Machine Learning from GenAI. GenAI is riding the Machine Learning coattails and risks destroying an incredibly useful innovation by conflating it with absolute slop that codes decently.

i know WHY this is but that just makes it even more of a kick in the pants lmao
screenshot of a tumblr post from user “wildmansters” The thing that really boils my potatoes about Al in general is that I have been a creative professional for over a decade now and the devil has ALWAYS been in the details. Big and small, I've had single-person businesses rip me to shreds over how their colors turned out on newsprint, and have worked with huge companies with THICK brand guidelines with every detail of their brand identity laid out and enforced with an iron fist. But I guess all of that stuff doesn't matter anymore? Who gives a fuck if this Al generated baby has six fingers, that mom-and-pop shop is still going to use it. That rug from Temu says Happy Thanksgivirg? Oh well haha it's just a silly funny thing now (nevermind that you never would have given a B-grade item from a craft show the same consideration). I don't actually care that the Al Coca-cola ad has a truck that changes size every scene, but I can't help but think about how, if it had been some poor underpaid artist, they would have been laughed out of the building. I don't really know how to put it in a succint way but it just feels all the more obvious how much more grace and flexibility has always been possible but never offered.

A series of white grid squares among a brown background. A white at sign is in the tile in the center of the screen. A low-res first person 3D view of golf on the green. The text box asks "How will you swing?" with the choices of Cautious approach, Moderation, and Full send it. A shop menu full of food items. Some make clear sense like A Burger, Curly Fries, and Cola Blast. The highlighted item is "The Big Fucko". A JRPG battle where it's eight enemies against the player's party of five. The action menu shows Attack, Skills, Passive, and Guard.

Menos: invertir dinero en galas de premios de videojuegos que son un tremendo circo y subir vídeos a webs de manera caótica y tener que disculparse luego. Más: visibilizar, valorar y pagar el trabajo de compañeres que de verdad se desviven para hacer que las cosas vayan a mejor.

No solo tenemos una zona con calles nombradas por videojuegos sino que se trata de una representación fiel de la industria del videojuego ya que es un barrio construido en plena burbuja inmobiliaria que quedó abandonado a medio desarrollar y con falta de infraestructuras desde hace años.

Undefeated post
A tumlbr thread. The first post by writing-prompt-s says "In a game with no consequences, why are you still playing the 'Good' side?". In response, user raphealiscoolbutrude says "Because being mean makes me feel bad", to which user everybodyilovedies says "23 fucking hundred years of philosophy and this mother fucker on tumblr gets it in a meme".
