Reminder that early Fortnite stole dance choreography from people of color and only responded when they were publicly called out or sued. That team has been telling the world who they are pretty consistently for a long time. We need to listen.
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.

More than 1,000 people submitted statements attesting to their losses…‘hardworking, everyday people,’ including small business owners, farmers, veterans, teachers and nurses.

Yeah you know what, I just don't really want to use Unreal for any projects moving forward, outside of my professional work.
Sweeney's kind of a self important tool at this point and I really don't feel like participating in his ecosystem.

Several months ago, actors made it clear that they were withholding work from Genshin Impact because of a lack of basic AI protections
Hoyo fans told them it would/could never be an issue
Last night, Hoyo posted several official videos promoting Genshin's new mode
Here's what the VO sounds like.

Every single person involved in creating this should be blacklisted from anything even tangentially related to art.
This is *awful.* AI is awful. PAY VOICE ACTORS.

The only thing less human than these AI dub performances is the decision to sign off on them
A company this big can pay human actors a decent wage, not produce slop that intentionally removes the human element.

Gender-affirming care saves lives
1. A landmark study was just published in The Journal of Pediatrics.
It found a 68% reduction in suicidality for trans youth getting HRT.
It also found only 7 of more than 400 stopped taking HRT... and of those that did, 4 still identified as gender-diverse.
