DLSS 5 is just a lighting pass and not an ai hallucin--

nintendo indirect is where you just read everyone's posts about it

nintendo directs rule in the switch 2 era we all gather around the timeline to watch trailers for games that came out six months to five years ago

Remember when the government was rushing through its social media age ban that every expert said wouldn't work and they kept reassuring everyone it wouldn't apply to videogames or videogame websites?

Steam has implemented age verification measures for Australian customers, restricting them from purchasing or even viewing titles that carry a local age rating of R18+. Currently, the one and only method of age verification is linking a supported credit card to a Steam account.

this second session being impossible to schedule is the most D&D thing you could possibly imagine

‘DUNGEONS & DRAGONS 2’ isn’t fully dead yet. • Script is complete • Hasbro remains committed • A new studio partner is being sought after Paramount passed for financial reasons #DungeonsAndDragons #Hasbro

I am practising zero tolerance for this shit. If they use genAI for any part of development, then I don't know how I'm supposed to trust that they aren't using it elsewhere. They keep only being sorry when they get caught, they keep pleading for special exemptions. Just. Don't. Use. It.

Video game companies keep trying to bait and switch us with AI, and it sucks aftermath.site/1666-amsterdam...

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.

State of SaaS

Some people might not be aware, but it is entirely possible that without Dolly Parton we wouldn’t have had a COVID vaccine. She partly funded Moderna’s research and gave the largest individual contribution to make it all happen. Just gives you an idea of the kind of person she was.

back before AI, video game developers had to make every digital woman look the same through hard work and artistry

queen of hearts 💔

The words "slightly adjust" in the game's description are doing some heavy lifting here

Wanted Dead AI slopified their key art

Gamescom AI Slop Thread. Every game from the Gamescom Opening Ceremonies that was actually AI Slop so you don't have to care about it.

Before I got my eye put out- I liked as well to see As other creatures, that have eyes- And know no other way- But were it told to me, Today That I might have the Sky For mine, I tell you that my Heart Would split, for size of me - #art | #witchhatatelier | #qifrey

tumblr is having a great one about this, little masterpiece of a post I'd say

So after my Trosky Arc OP, what if Kuttenberg Arc OP but really... an anime? Still WIP and this will take a while, but you can have this peek #kingdomcomedeliverance2 #kcd2

Fuck my *office* not being ready for this - I don’t care about my office. I care about my *everywhere*. “Your privacy only matters if spying might hurt your company” is a bullshit message.

Apple's Next AirPods May Have Cameras. Your Office Isn't Ready for the Privacy Implications

A new video suggests AirPods with cameras in them are coming soon. Could they open the door for IP theft?

genAI is rapist technology. lack of consent and thrill of domination/conquest is the feature, not a side effect. it's about taking and violating the sanctity of what's precious to others.

Luke Ridge (Commissions open✏️)@lri.bsky.social · last mo.

Well, as a surprise to no one #Cara has been scraped again!. Another crook taking what’s not there’s. The damage this is doing to the platform both physically and financially is huge. The #GenAI movement is an absolute curse.

I think about this at least a dozen times a day.

I think that I'm a little obsessed with Henry's side profile || #kcd2 #fanart

steam AI disclosures are so funny. they clearly know they're in the wrong, but they still think they can find the magic combination of words so people will make an exception for them. guys you don't understand i HAD to use AI and the game only has a LITTLE slop and i'm just a little birthday boy
