Gentle reminder that in addition to a few contract day jobs, I make vidya games! Consider following my studio account and maybe wishlisting (or even buying??) my current game so I can make more! Dev is slow coz we make shit with our hands here, not with sycophantic robots 😎

Knowing where so many creative tools (Rive, Adobe, etc) have ended up with their AI adoption, I dread to think what the Game UI Database could have become in the hands of someone with no respect for the creative process. The GUIDB is proudly anti-AI and will always champion humans, no matter what!

One of my top frustrations during the slopocalypse is that one of my favorite resources keeps breaking, and it's pissing off someome who should be one of the most influential people in the industry...

"doing so bad of a job that the outcome is illegal and boasting about it as a marketing strategy" is reason number one billion why I hate this tech.

Tech companies simply can't overcome these fundamental reasons NOT to use their AI products Ethics/society: - AI models are largely built on stolen labor - Cognitive health suffers with extended use of AI - AI destroys communities, careers and crafts that drive our culture and society for profit

Hi Bluesky! 👋 I'm a developer from Japan making Bone to Pick, a comic-style forensic mystery where you solve cases by reading bones. Clean them, piece them together, rebuild a face from a skull. No gore, just science and a slightly chaotic lab team. Free demo Oct 8 🦴 #indiedev #indiegame

look at this point, I trust artists and their communities. If they say they don't use it, I have to assume they don't. the cognitive burden of being suspicious all the time means i have no energy left over to make my own ai-free art... it's bullshit

No doubt a tough situation for the cohort, but as a supporter and weekly listener to way too much Minnmax, I am ultimately happy they made this decision. Now please let's all be normal and give the team space to sort themselves out.

my sincere hope is that our next president goes "well since the military is in shambles, let's just allocate more of our tax dollars to actually helping Americans instead of having a bloated defense budget" haha wouldn't that be so fun for us

The cluelessness of this reminds me a lot of the NFT grift. The thing about NFTs was that it was mainly something finance bros were into, and when they were trying to worm their way into gaming, their pitches were an abyssal trench of bad ideas because they couldn't grasp why people played games.

It should not be lost on any of us that Cornell University swiftly suspended students for peacefully protesting atrocities against women and children, but allowed men who drugged and gang-raped a woman for seven hours to write an essay and continue with their education.
