iiinova — where your digital self keeps evolving

it’s worth underlining that the amount which a modern live game is not this is directly the result of devs fighting inch by inch, for months if not years, against the guy at every corporation who demands an explanation for why you aren’t doing this at all times

A HUGE Game UI Database update is looming on the horizon, which comes with an 'avalanche' of new features. Some game-changing, some completely pointless. Here's a pointless game-changer:

the stupid thing was: the consumer games press DID have unethical marketing mouthpiece relationships with the industry. the e3 / spike tv / actiblizz / doritogate conglomerate and the payola-dominated masculine corporate culture had a stranglehold on what got made and how it could be discussed --

"If you don't finish your [game], all of the non-indigenous people on the project put on their resume, 'Worked with indigenous people,' and they go up in their career. And all of the indigenous people put on their resume, 'Didn't finish the project,' and they go down, right?"

This was a tweet from Michael Hobbes a while back and I’ve seen nothing to contradict it yet: “I think we'll look back on the last decade as a time when social media gave previously marginalized groups the ability to speak directly to elites and, as a result, elites lost their minds.”

A hand pointed a graph, and the words in black are, no lies detected

I also find it incredibly useful to write a crucial scene with a new character’s dialogue in it to find their voice, or to write phrases that they’d say into their bio. Once you have the flavour of how they speak, it’s so much easier to find them as a person

Reading The AI Con and in addition to being remarkably easy to read, sharp and laugh-out loud funny, it's also got some remarkably sharp insight: generated images do not fuck with our brains like generated text does. I wonder what this implies for code...

Photo of page 31 from The AI Con, chapter "It's Alive! The Hype of Thinking Machines".
Middle paragraph reads:
How our mind processes language can be contrasted with how we process the outputs of text-to-image models like Midjourney and DALL-E. These synthetic image machines share a lot of properties with the synthetic text machines: their function is predicated on massive data theft and profligate energy use, it's easy to be impressed by them, and they are being used to threaten people's livelihoods. But no one is suggesting that they are sentient - we can interpret their output (images) without imagining a mind selecting symbols in an attempt to communicate.

I saw in IMAX and it was 100% worth it. I found that it had a good balance of obvious and subtle messaging, and both were enhanced by how funny it was. It also didn't hurt that it's such a well-shot movie with some amazing audio work.
