I don't think companies realize this yet but going "complete AI game development" isn't giving "the future" it's giving "we're broke." Like y'all just don't want to pay wages.

The music Nobuo Uematsu did in his heyday for Final Fantasy was so good that I didn’t understand it was possible to do that in a videogame, it was like seeing the first guy dunk a basketball

Like when I think about Final Fantasy 6, I think about Nobuo Uematsu and Yoshitaka Amano and how they, as normal flawed human beings, made something that moved me as a child and how little that game would mean to me if the art and music was proficient and passable but not wonderful and expressive

The Office of Congresswoman Omar released the following statement:

“This raid by Trump’s DHS is an outrageous abuse of power and an unprecedented escalation in the weaponization of federal law enforcement to target political enemies. For a decade, Donald Trump has relentlessly targeted Congresswoman Ilhan Omar with inflammatory rhetoric, repeatedly putting a target on her back. Now, those attacks have escalated to a pointless federal raid. The Congresswoman has done nothing wrong. No president should be able to use the power of the federal government to intimidate his political enemies.”

The death penalty is inadmissible because it is an attack on the inviolability and dignity of the person.
The common good can be safeguarded and the requirements of justice can be met without recourse to capital punishment: effective systems of detention have been developed that protect citizens while at the same time do not completely deprive those who are guilty of the possibility of redemption. #NoDeathPenalty

“How do you survive AI? Amazon is a very AI friendly company to the tune of 50 billion dollars invested to OpenAI. I am not an AI friendly actor. I didn’t sign the waiver to let them use AI on Spider-Noir. It’s kind of like I’m probably not going to be working with that studio again. But that’s OK.”

This is your occasional reminder that generative "AI" in particular could have been developed on public domain materials and/or licensed and compensated works but the major players intentionally, methodically and systemically chose to steal labor from working creative folks instead

Making something legally not mine in my car
Location: Columbus ohio
Could I put a bin in my car with a label to make sure cops know something in my car isn't mine. I'm 18 but my mom and brother are over the age of 21 and sometimes they will leave liquor or weed in my car. I don't want to get pulled over and get a possession charge for it is there any way I can make it legally not mine while in my car. So they don't have to come to my house to pick it up every time.

Lol wtf, seems like it was way more work to use the thing that supposedly makes actual work obsolete than it would've to learn the skills needed to do it properly
The ironic part of this patch is that it uses machine translation to translate a game whose story is about an artificial intelligence replacing humans. Pepa describes the AI usage: “This is an AI-assisted translation. The first pass was machine-translated from the Japanese PlayStation script, not the Sega CD version. For 1.0 the whole script was translated again at full length, now that the engine no longer limits how long a line can be, and every line went through a human review that changed 10,970 of them. The voice subtitles are timed from a speech-recognition pass over the Japanese audio, checked by hand, and reviewed the same way.”

While using machine translation, pepa said they put in a considerate effort in making sure it’s human-reviewed: “I know what an AI-slop patch looks like, and I don’t want this to be one. The English is read against the Japanese scene by scene and rewritten wherever it reads like a machine wrote it. The 1994 Sega CD localization is a reference for terminology and tone where the scenes overlap, not a source. Names follow the Japanese, so the subtitles match what the voice actors say.”

Their effort doesn’t stop there. They even created an entire tool to verify every scene and vocal line: “The review is done in a tool built for it: every line of a scene on one row, with the speaker, the Japanese with furigana, the English, and a button that plays the voice line straight off the disc. A headless harness plays the game and photographs every subtitle, and every reported bug has a save attached so it can be reached again.”

Reflecting on the Resident Evil movie, and a thematic takeaway that's sticking with me with me is that it posits that no matter how insecure and incompetent you feel, you will never be as stupid as the people in power whose real incompetence will fuck up your life way worse than you could yourself.

I do think an important aspect of last night's Dynamite is that it chips away at a kind of toxic masculinity that says men don't cry. Everyone last night was bawling and the ones that weren't actively crying were supporting the ones that were. I think it's necessary to internalize that.

As an addendum to this thread, I think it's really interesting how gamers respond to cut content. It's always viewed as a missed opportunity, "they didn't have enough time", etc., but never as an actual artistic choice on the director's part.

I hope that people do not use the NetEase split to frame RIADM as some product of GhM's "dark era" just because they didn't like it. Yes, it almost certainly would have been different with a larger budget and more time. That can be said of most of Suda's projects.

it’s come to my attention that my tumblr post has been crossposted to bluesky, so I’m posting it on my account here #AntiAI #GenAI
recently my friend's comics professor told her that it's acceptable to use gen AI for script-writing but not for art, since a machine can't generate meaningful artistic work. meanwhile, my sister's screenwriting professor said that they can use gen AI for concept art and visualization, but that it won't be able to generate a script that's any good. and at my job, it seems like each department says that AI can be useful in every field except the one that they know best.

It's only ever the jobs we're unfamiliar with that we assume can be replaced with automation. The more attuned we are with certain processes, crafts, and occupations, the more we realize that gen AI will never be able to provide a suitable replacement. The case for its existence relies on our ignorance of the work and skill required to do everything we don't.
