There's the analysis that Nvidia will leave the gaming market if Jensen is forced out of the company. My analysis is that Nvidia is functionally out of the market already and the biggest change is that there won't be a future for people willing to spend $2,000 on a graphics card.

WSJ: 'Nvidia’s board is preparing to oust CEO Jensen Huang, its founder and chief executive after he had two extramarital affairs, including one with a suspected Chinese spy. The board is preparing to meet as soon as today to determine his future, people familiar with the matter said.'

Every single Sony service game that was part of that initiative has now been canceled. I am including Concord since it was also effectively cancelled, just after release.

I'm strictly anti-AI!* *unless I like the game *unless the game's budget is below $500 million *unless it uses less than 75% AI *unless I cried when playing the game *unless I already paid for my non-refundable preorder *unless I know the developer *unless my friends already played the game *unles

"we didn't say anything or mark it on steam because the AI code was less than 10 total lines, and we thought disclosing it would normalize AI usage." 10 lines of code fixed your game and you couldn't figure that out? really? I feel the worst for all the actual artists who worked on this honestly

House House updated its FAQ regarding AI use: "In the final stretch of Big Walk’s development, LLMs were used sparingly by House House to help work through difficult technical challenges and bugs." bigwalk.game/faq/#ai

when you get to the point where the problem is so difficult you feel you have to reach for ai, ask yourself: what would i have done if this happened in 2019. problems did not just recently start being solved

We had to delete 10 terabytes of AI slop from our servers, and to help prevent this in the future, we're requiring the foxes to do a super-ultra pinkie-promise with no takebacksies the next time they come to visit the henhouse

The tabletop (aka physical games), books, comics and soundtracks categories on itchio now require completing an AI disclosure in order to edit or create your page. These join the game assets section which has required disclosure for the past 2 years.

Although I think they do care, I feel this lamenting kind of comes off inauthentic from all the hyping over the last month from vibecoded mods for SF4 and T6. Like broadcasting to thousands, “PLEASE USE CLAUDE TO DO MORE OF THIS” and then going, “Oh, poor people can’t have a hobby anymore”.

One of the saddest things things about studio closings is fans clamoring to save the IP. Never the artists who made it No. What matters is The Franchise, so they can have more games. Games are nothing without the people who make them, but all gamers care about is their toys. It's really gross.

Does it need to be said that Mass Effect shouldn’t exist without the developers and team that was working on this game? Either they come back and make the game they were, or Mass Effect dies. kotaku.com/mass-effect-...

Lmao the mgo revival community getting like aggressively defensive of AI maybe being used in the new native mgo pc port is wild. Like hello sir do you know what video game franchise this is. Half of the later games are heavily anti-AI. An entire game's story is built around AI being bad.

People never used mods like this seriously, they were always made to prove a point: in the past, they were made to flex your understanding of both the source and the target game, "I documented them so well, I can do this". Now they flex... that you have tokens to burn, I guess?

"i put minecraft in elden ring" "i put tarkov in skyrim" its fascinating to see what a completely uncreative mind spits out when granted the ability to generate mods via AI Code. it's some ready player one bs. every time.
