The reason all these companies turn on this AI bullshit by default is because they know no one willingly wants to give up their work or content to the corporations that benefit the most from stealing it. That's capitalism.

Leadership is a parasite that'll leech the studio dry then get away with their pockets full while leaving devs in the wake of their consequences. I hope one day they can be held accountable and that the creative industry in general can undergo a systematic change.

It will never stop being funny to me that the street fighter subreddit has a much better, well reasoned ai policy vis a vis literally all universities.
Hi, thanks for posting! We do appreciate you thinking of us even though we have to moderate.

Our stance on all AI generated content (Images, Video, Voiceovers, and whatever else LLM based AI gets up to in the future):

At best, they are approximations of street fighter characters as the AI has no clue what it is trying to create. Because of this, there is no street fighter content so they are not allowed. (rule 1)

Also, they aren't allowed per our source rule. As AI sources cannot be tracked, we must assume that they use uncredited sources in the learning data. (rule 5)

Finally, AI images, video, text, and voiceovers are barely any different than posting a screenshot of a google search. The level of effort is so low that we consider it spam (rule 3).

Because of these reasons, AI art and other AI content is not allowed.

If you would like to contact the moderators about this removal, you can do so here.

Im sad that we might not see another aotw emblem ever again. Leadership isnt just gutting the game, it's trying to dismantle the community too. Now it's up to us - artists, writers, cosplayers, etc etc - to keep the world alive through our creations. I'll do my part.

It all boils down to greed. From execs to genAI; greed invading and killing games, movies, art. Creativity. The thing that marked humanity when we put our hands on a cave wall and told stories instead of made-up Numbers Go Up.

Notice how every "ai implementation" is just tricking people to use it or pushing ai slop in your face while erasing genuine human-made things. It's a forced dependency designed to make you think you cant function without it.

The reason why RAM has become four times more expensive is that a huge amount of RAM that has not yet been produced was purchased with non-existent money to be installed in GPUs that also have not yet been produced, in order to place them in data centers that have not yet been built, powered by infrastructure that may never appear, to satisfy demand that does not actually exist and to obtain profit that is mathematically impossible

There's an important thing from the late 2000s internet that seems to be lost on some people today and that is: Don't Feed the Trolls. Silently block them and move on. Don't give them the response they're looking for. Don't dignify them with a response. They are not worth your time or your energy.

This whole section really.
Finally: AI cannot do your job, but an AI salesman can 100% convince your boss to fire you and replace you with an AI that can't do your job, and when the bubble bursts, the money-hemorrhaging "foundation models" will be shut off and we'll lose the AI that can't do your job, and you will be long gone, retrained or retired or "discouraged" and out of the labor market, and no one will do your job.
AI is the asbestos we are shoveling into the walls of our society and our descendants will be digging it out for generations:

My theory about genAI and genAI companies - i think it's a form of artificial dependency. They inject genAI into every aspect of your life, even in places you don't need them, all to make you think you can't go without them, so they can profit off whatever data you have and whatnot.

*Why is so much censorship bullshit happening all at once?" Because this is The-Push. They've been tightening the screws for years now to the point the internet is now passively more censored than daytime tv from 30 years ago, and now they're trying to do one last push to snuff out free speech

Boss. I'm tired boss. We been doing these experiments and studies since the 60s and 70s and the outcome has been the same in them all. The pushback against these measures aren't because they don't work. It's because they DO work and they'll include peoples they wish to exclude from society.

I think about this constantly
Tweet from user Jason C: 
“I don't think a lot of people appreciate how much of their overall lifestyle and relative certainty is backstopped by a steady, boring stability of systems they don't understand or even realize exist.”

Quote from user Max Dubler:

“That old saw about how "good times make weak men" is true in the sense that stable times with material abundance create reactionaries who want to destroy the systems that protect them because they're too sheltered and stupid to understand that things can get meaningfully worse.

True decadence looks like people who are three generations removed from the cultural memory of polio refusing to vaccinate their children against deadly communicable diseases because they don't like needles and don't think there will be any consequences, not queer dance parties”

In the coming days/months/years, don’t “yuck on people’s yum” here if you can avoid it. I know it feels trite seeing folks post their cute cats or jokes with friends in the midst of horrors unfolding. Fascism aims to take your joy. Pure joy is self-ownership; an act of resistance. Embrace joy.
