The problem is, as opposed to radium, the people manufacturing LLMs know it’s harmful because that is THE POINT. The goal is to harm, disable, and control.

Who’s got two thumbs and accidentally tensed up during a flu shot and made the vax tech think I was a scaredy boy? This guy!

1) This isn't about generating games or assets with AI, it's just about using automation tools for some processes like bug testing which isn't inherently bad 2) IGN should be embarrassed for this headline. It doesn't say "AI generation" as in generative AI, it's 世代, "generation" as in "time period"

Instead of saying "I'm hungover" or "all the spicy peppers I ate last night are shredding my asshole apart" say this: "the sins of my past.... are catching up with me." Sounds way more ominous and badass

I’m really impressed with how consistently every week is worse than the previous one. You’d think that at some point *something* would get better, but no! Everything only ever finds a way to get worse!

@eniko@mastodon.gamedev.place

OH. right! i get it now!

i get why AI is so depressing to me. because covid already shrunk my world to almost nothing, where almost all of my life revolves around socializing and watching videos on the internet (which is being ruined by AI) and creating creative works through coding (which is being ruined by AI), often using open source tools and libraries (which are being ruined by AI)

i already had so little and now even that is being rotted away before my eyes
