There is no sound, image, or visual that can be generated by genAI that is worth more than the value of having an actual person create a comparable sound, image, or visual of the same intention.

It's BANDCAMP FRIDAY Musicians get all the money you spend on their music today on Bandcamp! Post your project as a reply, let's get a thread going! What kind of music is it and where can we find it?

Bought! Hope people can support as well. We need more voices like this!

Just a clarification: AI doesn't lie but it doesn't tell the truth either.

A reminder: Spotify wrapped is, first and foremost, advertising for Spotify. If you want to *talk* (post) about what you've been listening to? I am ALL for that. But you don't need Spotify's advertising to do that.

If you're reading this and you're in charge of AI: The term AI is actually used by videogames already, you're going to have to call it something else

That window of Overton is moving very fast. Too fast.

Yes yes yes yes www.theguardian.com/music/2025/s...

Every artist I’ve ever known has this itch to create that won’t go away until they create. They have to do it. It’s why I know the “finally, someone like me can make art” AI users are full of shit. What they really mean is “finally, a way to get social media likes without hard work”.

A friend of mine was on Charlie Kirk's "watch list" of Black professors. She received so many death and rape threats that her university offered her a security detail for the walk to class. This is Kirk's legacy. You would never know it from reading all of these legacy newspaper op-eds about him.

Hold the press! Stop everything! It finally happened! #hollowknight #silksong #wewaitedsolong

Reminder: if you are worried about AI replacing you as an artist: don’t use AI voices, If you don’t want composing to be handed over to AI: don’t use it to write text. You get the idea. If you value your job: protect others jobs too.

Dear website owners, If you do not provide a 'reject all' option meaning you want me to reject all requests individually, I will never return to your website.

What's up with people refusing to acknowledge that September is also a summer month? Is September becoming the Pluto of months?

Too little too late

I took my music off Spotify before it was cool 😎 😜

Every time I see a cat or the picture of a cat, I think to myself: "Cats are the best".

If you cannot proofread EVERY line of code that an LLM throws at you and you keep using it, that's on you.

Let's celebrate YouTube's launch of an AI music feature with a video about how to potentially destroy it. youtu.be/xMYm2d9bmEA

That went about as fast as I expected - library music is dead. www.theverge.com/news/647422/...

hello i have made a video about consumerism's toxic effect on our lives in the context of music technology maybe you want to watch it? here you go: youtu.be/X-8oggi0_p8

The Boycott, Divestment, and Sanctions (BDS) movement has called for a boycott of Xbox; here's what that means and why it's important. www.pastemagazine.com/games/xbox/b...

People love to laugh these things off as gimmicks but if you take the time to understand, its not that crazy at all. Games aren't magic, they're technology. And nothing in games "just works", it all has to be meticulously built to maintain the illusion. RT helps. www.youtube.com/watch?v=u6Eu...

Maybe we could just be careful with any technology that gives unwarranted power to a privileged group over people and their livelihood?

It's finally here! Love the sound quality and happy to use again the muscle memory from my LSDJ days!

As a music artist, I want to stay away from AI for creating the visuals that will accompany my music. I know it's easy to get a result and it lets you focus on making music. But so is hiring an illustrator or a graphic designer. How do you feel when someone uses AI-generated music for their videos?

Been listening to Tame Impala a lot this week. My favorite album is Currents (by far).

So much fun

Introducing STARSEEKER, a brand new game from the developers of ASTRONEER. STARSEEKER is all about the joy of discovery and the camaraderie that emerges from an evolving, cooperative experience. We hope you'll enjoy playing it as much as we enjoyed making it... sometime in 2026.

i just published... "Why making art matters: We no longer have a type of industry where we can chase financial success. We can only sustainably fail." www.nathalielawhead.com/candybox/mak... about sustainable alternatives to existing in the game industry, and the positive impact of failure. #GameDev

Zelda Williams (the daughter of the great Robin Williams) sure had a lot to say about the “Studio Ghibli style” AI images that have been trending recently. I think those people should read these posts and really think about what they’re doing.

We had our latest jam session at the Zürich Synthesizer Table in a new location. It was a nice evening with lovely sounds and a friendly atmosphere.

There has to be a repository somewhere that lists all the occurrences where introversion is amalgamated with timidity.
