i have been less online for quite a while and mainly posting about Work Things but that is all about to change bcos i miss seeing what folks are up to and chatting about stuff so i am coming back i'm sorry/you're welcome :))

I hate AI with every fiber of my being. I'll never use GenAI or knowingly support anyone that uses it. BUT I would rather accidently support something that has AI and be embarrassed for a moment, than falsely assume/accuse something to be AI when it is not and cause harm to a real artist.

Saying it for maybe the 50th time: Do not accuse someone of using AI unless you have ABSOLUTELY AIRTIGHT proof, because if not, you're just adding to the paranoia and causing stress for hard-working artists. And yes, going onto social media and going 'Hrrm, I've no proof, but...' is an accusation.

there's two weird things about the controls in Jumper that I did for very specific reasons: - ducking is on R instead of down - double jump is on a separate button from regular jump

After having a few difficulties moving and aiming in slightly tighter spaces I set about creating a Line of Sight alt mode for the cannon. You sacrifice trajectory control, aiming beyond obstructions and certain ammo types. But in turn gain much more immediacy and simplicity. #UE5 #gamedev #indiedev

My preferred AI metaphor is actually Asbestos. - Seemingly magical properties - Developed and experimented with to make endless products - Poisoned countless communities in it's creation - Everything it was used for eventually becomes a toxic hazard to mitigate & it's in the fucking walls now

Trying out a new metaphor: "A.i." = cocaine. Cocaine is inevitable! Cocaine can enhance your creativity! Cocaine can make us all faster and more efficient! If your kid doesn't learn how to use cocaine, they'll get left behind!
