Sulking in the basement while they take the piano away because I'm sad about it and also becoming increasingly troubled by my inability to accept roles in anything for an unknown length of time before we're settled overseas 😭 it's killing my recognizability and my portfolio so hard

dying on the inside because I'm heavily interested in at least two of these but still not sure how quickly my housing situation will be settled overseas so I don't want to get cast and then be like "lol jk" 😭

Night. The House of Chimes - a tower which you might immediately think of as Big Ben - is adrift in the River Thames. It still seems to be keeping time. In the background, a large, alien building looms over the city of London.

The piano removal folks will be here later this morning to take the Bush & Lane. Grabbed some pictures of it before and after taking the frontispiece to remember it by 😔 Some of the parts in it have patent dates of 1897 and 1898 stamped on them, and we found the serial number (24520)!

We are going to at least keep the beautifully carved frontispiece, which is where the majority of the ornamentation is anyway, and use it as a wall hanging or maybe turn it into a coffee table (yeah, it's that big) or something. RIP 1906 Bush & Lane upright, you were loved and appreciated.

Got a reality check about the antique piano that hurts my "it belongs in a museum" heart, but is sensible 😭 at 100+yo, it is basically impossible to ever restore it and KEEP it restored to what it used to be. It'll never play exactly right. Junking it is actually the kindest option. Still... ow.

\stolen off a friend. This is so true. Got a flyer from our local little theatre about a Gilbert & Sullivan production they're staging. Was mildly interested until I realised it was all done with AI slop. It went in the bin.

An anti-AI post that reads: Your AI event posters: - use fake fonts that cannot be read easily by the visually impaired or those with Dyslexia. - are crowded and over-stimulating, hiding the important details and information. - use mixed, muddied, and unappealing colors. -are hated and ignore by the younger generation, artists, and environment activists. I made this poster in 20 minutes. It's clear, concise, and easy to read. Intent matters, your vent matters. Stop the slop. Artists against AI.

I will say that I'm very glad that @playindies.com has a visible and easily accessible policy on AI but I very strongly do not agree with it. Treating GenAI use as anything short of anathema is giving ground that we cannot afford to lose. I will be deleting my playindies account.

Screenshot from playIndies website: What is PlayIndies' stance on generative AI?

We are not an anti-AI platform. We are fine with AI being used as a tool to aid processes or streamline data-driven workflows. What we do not support is job-replacing generative AI, such as using AI to create final art / audio assets or localize text, for example. We firmly believe these are tasks that humans should be paid for, and we will not support games relying on AI to replace jobs. We do our best to check for this during our manual verification process, but it's inevitable that some games will slip through, so we greatly appreciate any potentially problematic titles being brought to our attention.

We also recognize that generative AI usage isn't always black and white, particularly when it comes to indie development. Many indie developers are working with extremely limited (often non-existent) budgets, so we try to look at how and why these tools are being used rather than treating every use of generative AI equally. For example, a solo developer using generated placeholder art during prototyping because they don't have the budget to commission prototype assets is very different to a funded studio using generated artwork in the final game instead of hiring an artist. The same can apply to temporary audio or UI assets, internal concept exploration, coding assistance, debugging, workflow tools, or other uses that help a small team get through development without replacing paid creative work in the finished product. There are a lot of grey areas here, which is why we review these situations on a case-by-case basis. Our goal is ultimately to support indie developers while drawing a firm line at generative AI being used as a replacement for people's jobs.
