The 2008 housing crisis was in many ways the result of people who knew better choosing to manipulate the market for their benefit and lied to people. The AI bubble is a looming crisis that is the inversion because the so called experts are convinced of its worth and everyone else knows it's a scam.

"i want to transition, but i'm worried i'm not feminine enough" fool that you are, you have internalised liberal ontology and all the hierarchical assumptions it entails. you have forgotten that the only difference between wanting to be something and being it is doing it.

like this is why gianni is bending over backwards to give trump trophies and awards bc what he wants in return is for Trump to not fuck up the bag for him

I want to elaborate on this a bit. Obviously any creative following me knows this, but it's a context that's been eroded by companies for years Art is a means of communication by the creative acts of expression. AI of any sort, and especially GenAI does not communicate or express, thus no creation

If your game has been using AI assets in production, remove them, hire artists or voice actors or composers to replace the slop, it's not too late to course correct, just get rid of it before release, excise the slop. And that's the compromise position, because people still might not trust you.

I care that the art I engage with is made by humans, regardless of how "good" the tech may become, that is the underlying contention, that is important to me and cannot be bargained away. I'm sick of hearing about compromise this and middle ground that, do you want to hear my compromise? Remove it.

Why am I so against generative AI in games? Because I simply do not want my initial reaction to art to be one of suspicion and scrutiny, AI slop is fundamentally damaging my relationship to art and artistry, and I am deeply resentful that it is forcing me to be guarded when I should be wowed.

oh so that's how I'm gonna die neat

Sure the GPUs on these data centers running full blast melt after like 18 months meaning the collateral depreciates to 0 in half the time it takes the loan that bought them to even hit maturity but like this is gonna work dont worry

No no no dont worry compute is gonna be as good as gold! Oh sure 70% of the current compute is just being used to train models not to run them so theoretically once training got better you actually wouldn't even need most of these data centers but uhh AGI

Dont worry guys sure they built derivative securities based on server rack space on unbuilt data centers that wont even have enough electricity to run for at least 5 years based on projections that AI will be worth 10% of the value of the entire global labor force by then but thats all real value

Im not owned! Dont put it in the newspaper that I got owned!

"Guys" is used as a supposedly gender neutral group address, but this "gender neutral" somehow always seems to be male. Guys, lads, boys, bois, bros, dudes, even fellows. We use they/them singular now for gender neutral pronoun but it was once "he." Don't believe me? Here's Le Guin.

Oh cool, indentured servitude. Legally recognised throughout the democratic world as a form of unfree labour aka slavery. Also literally how the people traffickers that this legislation is supposedly meant to stop imprison their victims.

“If Labour don’t do this, we’ll get a Reform government” Trans people, disabled people, migrants, people of colour and people seeking asylum already have a Reform government. You just want to feel superior to those who like the idea of Nigel Farage as PM.

libraries are a pure, communal, social idea. People have mentioned that they wouldn't be invented in America today and I largely agree. There is no profit to be made here, only enrichment of spirit.

Ever since someone on here brought up the fact that the media literally just interviews rich people to get their thoughts on random shit, even though there’s absolutely no need to do that, it’s all that I can see everywhere

The truth is, poverty is an unforgivable crime. My child is dying before my eyes because of poverty If I had enough money,I could have saved his life I see the world saving the lives of animals while my child, who is supposed to be human, will die without anyone saving his life shorturl.at/eRAO3

I say this with empathy toward every struggling actor who is just trying to make due: Providing your voice for A.I. undermines everyone in the industry. It is a net negative, that will only make it harder for you and everyone else down the line. It. Is. Wrong.

I’m seeing people say that the English voice over sounds like AI - though there’s absolutely no way to confirm that at the moment, I am curious. Apparently there are a lot of voices that have VO in the Japanese version that are just totally silent in English, too?

"If you hate GenAI you're going to have to stop playing new games when they all start using it" My brother in Christ, my backlog is literally thousands of games long. I have lifetimes worth of earlier titles to play, & I will gladly do that instead of boiling the oceans for a new CoD or whatever

those of us laid off from Teen Vogue were really fortunate to complete our fundraising goal — the laid-off staffers at VIBE deserve the same support, as Black media outlets and journalists continue to be targeted and discriminated against in “austerity” measures

Alan Dershowitz is one of those claiming Epstein was not a pedophile because he pleaded guilty to one count of having sex for money with a 17-year-and-10-month-old person. "That’s not a pedophile." See this important response from Julia Brown, the brave reporter who broke the news on this

Good thread Also hot take, this should be illegal. If a job offer gets far enough that you are forced to end current work and prepare to move, they should be liable for leading you along and ruining your life.

3 years ago today, Riot Games offered me a job making more money than I ever thought I’d make in my life. I had 19 interviews over 2.5 months to get it. Partner and I were moving to LA for it. I put in notice at my job and apartment. 2 weeks later they rescinded the offer due to “headcount issues”.

shes so scrunkgly. the ears

Just because I've seen it get brought up a couple times recently General reminder: misandry doesn't exist! People who say it's real are being misogynistic. It's a tactic to punish women for being vocal, being wrong, or otherwise not agreeing with or liking men Prejudice against men isn't systemic

I finished the entire BLOPS 7 campaign, asked for a refund and Valve granted it to me. I wrote: "The game constantly utilized AI generated options that were not present in the marketing for the game as well as videos and screenshots of the material." Shocked they did TBH
