There are so many cool games that don't use AI and that you can support instead of giving hundreds or thousands of bucks to Mihoyo that will most likely use that money to invest into AI. I think that in 2026 you can see all the problems AI is doing now and not supporting it could help those problems

an artist followed me, cool I think I'll check out their page. pinned post is commission info, directly states "no men or futa" great, cool, fantastic, blocked. sick of artists who not only refuse to draw trans bodies but reduce us all to a porn term. If I see that crap you're going in the bin.

This one hurts. I've really enjoyed Tim's work in the past But let's just be totally bloody clear here: every single person using a text fabrication engine to replace their work, research and writing skills: THIS MOMENT IS COMING FOR YOU TOO It is truly just a matter of time. It's inevitable ⏱️

I recently wrote a piece critical of Matt Chun's essay about the shootings at Bondi
Beach. In it, I attributed a quote to him that were not his words. This was an egregious
mistake and I apologise unreservedly. At his request, I have removed the piece, but I
wanted to make sure everyone here was aware of the error.
I really have no excuse other than my own carelessness and a degree of hubris. I used
AI to search for other examples Of how people had responded to Chun's piece, asking
for links and key quotes. It brought up mainly mainstream pieces from Australia but
some Reddit links, and links from overseas sources. I also asked it to summarise the
piece, not in lieu of reading it but in addition. (I had first read it after reading Guy
Rundle's comments about it.) I clicked through on some of the links. I noted down the
quote, wrote a drop in paragraph using it, and added it to the draft at some point. That
I didn't double-check it or recognise it as not part of the original essay is entirely on
me.
So, yes, this is a case Of AI generating a false quote, but the issue is that I should've
been far more careful in checking it and I am deeply sorry, and embarrassed, that I
didn't do it to the extent necessary. Obviously, we are all aware of this issue of falseSo, yes, this is a case of AI generating a false quote, but the issue is that I should've
been far more careful in checking it and I am deeply sorry, and embarrassed, that I
didn't do it to the extent necessary. Obviously, we are all aware of this issue of false
quotes and attributions with AI, but I had enough hubris to think such a thing would
never get past me. It did.
When Matt Chun first contacted me, I initially responded by saying "It came from a
email discussion with people I know and generally trust and I should've been much
more careful." I was pretty sure I knew what the issue was, but this was a fob to give
me time to think about it. Obviously, I should've just said, let me look into it, but I
actually thought that sounded worse, more like a fob than the false reason I gave.
That's not an excuse, just the thought process in the moment. I also apologise for this.
I will leave further discussion of the the problems with using AI in this way for later.
For now, I really want to make clear the error and to apologise publicly to Matt Chun
for the false quote and the initially misleading response. As I say, I have no excuse
beyond my own carelessness and hubris.

Update: After initially lying to me about the source Of the misattribution, Tim Dunlop
has now admitted that he used Al to write his article, which generated the entirely
false paragraph attributed to me as a 'quote'.
The false 'quote' is central to Dunlop's article, and essential to his criticism of me. It's
the basis from which he develops a number of defamatory imputations, and from
which he invites his readership to conclude that I am frankly, grotesque'.
Dunlop has now removed the article and has posted a public apology. However, the
article was published for 30 days, during which time it enjoyed wide engagement and
shares. It drew a significant number of comments by admiring readers who found his
misinformation convincing. The article also remains in the inboxes of his many
subscribers.
It appears that Dunlop is a journalist for national mastheads, a published author, and
a •sought-after' public speaker with a PhD in 'political philosophy and
communication'. He has a large audience including hundreds of paid subscribers, and
is currently '#45 rising in world politics' on this platform.

I did not say the words •quoted' below. I've never seen these words before. and they certainly
don't appear in my writing as Tim Dunlop claims. Nevertheless, Dunlop develops a critique of
me based on this complete misattribution. In the comments section of his article, Dunlop is
congratulated as •clear-sighted and thoroughly informed'.

y'know..... now that I've seen the news Tomb Raider: Legacy of Atlantis used genAI in preprod, there's a pretty good chance Catalyst as a creative vision is compromised too. I'm glad IOI managed to dodge that shit but dear god this is bleak.

my biggest advice to any freelancer who is looking to work in the games industry is to Always Apply To That Job. even if you aren’t 100% qualified, having your name and resume known to the studio you are applying to can get you work in the future.

Having a no-sleep night so I popped this vid open and really enjoyed it. Great talk by Chris; it was presented to an audience of game devs but is useful for anyone in any field!

Well, it happened. A client disregarded my advice about using generative AI and guess what? It gave them bad advice AND the judge ruled that by using it, Client waived confidentiality and ordered us to turn a bunch of private stuff over. STOP USING GENERATIVE AI FOR LEGAL THINGS. I BEG YOU.

I am once again begging, praying, weeping for lists of written instructions rather than videos. I do not want to watch your two minute video in the hope of catching the two seconds where you whizz past what goddamn menu the thing is under. Write. It. Down.

I’m a big crocheter and I’ve bought a lot of wool from Hobbii over the years. Safe to say I will absolutely never use them again. Even before we get into anything even more serious, generative ai is destroying the crochet and knitting community. Support your local wool shop.

A LinkedIn screenshot from the company “Hobbii”, which reads:
“Let's be honest: Nobody has 100% control over AI
Is this image Al? No doubt about it.
At Hobbii, we use Al a lot. It has clear perks-like saving our tech team from long, awkward photoshoots (even if the consequence is a photo that looks a bit more staged than casual, it hopefully gets the job done)...
Beyond the quick wins and the fun images, there's a real conversation to be had.
Right now, the industry narrative is obsessed with convenience. "Faster, cheaper, automated." But at what cost?
As we integrate LLMs deeper into our tech stacks, we're facing a shift that most corporate posts ignore: The steady trade-off between scaling and sovereignty.
At Hobbii, we're constantly navigating three conflicting perspectives:
• The excitement of building in and playing with new possibilities.
• The strategic concern over losing control of our own data foundations.
• The human question: What does this do to our autonomy and how we develop knowledge?
There are no easy answers or polished slides for this.”
