AI imagery is the equivalent of Plato’s prisoner being bored of sunlight, clambering down into a cave, shackling himself to a rock to watch shadows cast by firelight and forgetting that the world above exists.
this field biologist does a great job highlighting the insidiousness of AI editing
these one-click AI edit buttons are incredibly appealing to many photographers, amateurs and professionals alike, and are framed as innocuous
this is worth sharing and educating people about

Well, season 1 of Welcome to Derry is over. There were some less than great episodes but overall it was good.
I like the explanation for why the 3 planned seasons of the show will be in reverse chronological order. It makes sense and in a weird way it means the show is both a prequel and a sequel.

Apparently Capcom "downgraded" Pragmata's graphics late into development to prioritize performance, which is something you wouldn't be able to see unless they show you a direct comparison with whatever they were doing with it originally.
I only have one thing to say. Please, keep doing that Capcom.

I hope Mappa decides to adapt the rest of CSM part 1 in season 2. If they turn the final arc into a movie it would suck. Not because we would have to wait even longer for the end but because the very last thing people would see in season 2 is the snowball fight, the worst scene to end it by far.

The Elder Scrolls and Fallout franchises have been coasting on the original work and ideas of people who haven't been at the company for decades at this point. Starfield is pure modern Bethesda and pure modern Bethesda is into soaking.
Cyberpunk, for all its faults, was 100% made by people who have lived lives. Who have known poverty, or loss, or sexual desire, or something! Anything!
Starfield feels like a game designed by Mormons who have never left their cul de sac and decided to lecture me about The Human Experience.

My PC was trash for so many years that even now I still forget that I can actually play new games now.
So I tried the Pragmata demo. Not bad.
The game ran at around 100 fps at high settings and FSR 4 Quality. I guess the RE Engine still runs fine when it's used in the kind of game it was made for.

"You should see Twitter's reaction to Supergirl. They're so mad."
Why the fuck would anyone want to do that to themselves? It's not worth it.

I want to re-emphasize, the guy who has made HUNDREDS of videos calling people in the industry slurs, calling for them to be fired, calling all the studios that are showing games "woke and gay" and has harassed multiple journalists covering the show over the years is at the Game Awards.
LOL hey everyone in the industry who is at the Game Awards, the guy who has made countless videos harassing you is there!

Is this accurate or is this another "the game was made by 33 people" situation that people repeated ad nauseam to criticize other games even though that wasn't true at all?
'Clair Obscur: Expedition 33' had a budget of less than $10M 💰

I'm not going to lie, I really don't like how Krem looks in the Supergirl movie. I hope that at least he's well written so maybe I won't care too much about that. But first impressions... oh god why?

The Supergirl trailer doesn't show a lot.
BUT
It shows enough to let me know that they weren't cowards, they're doing the thing that people are going to hate.
