The games industry, "GenAI is coming from our jobs." Meanwhile, this is what Claude thinks a mid century sofa looks like... you're good games folks.

Thread: 🧵 This is my first time working with Claude on a piece of art. Lesson 1. I hand coded the entire architecture while having it teach me swift. I wrote in c# and had it translate for me then I typed in all the first round of architecture. Man oh man am I glad I did. It made hilarious calls.

I'm at #nime2026 this week and I am very thankful for their hybrid approach. Streaming still remains the most accessible way to attend a conference for me. Oscillating between being there vs in my own house has been brilliant.

OMG this is the ultimate self own. @anthropic.com if your CEO wants to use the, "Too dangerous to release" trick card to up your valuation, you could get what you wish for. How long is your company going to sit kneecaped by the White House? Lol. www.anthropic.com/news/fable-m...

squeezlabs.github.io/handcrank/ When people tell you ML needs huge compute, massive data collection, and wrecks the planet, explain that is not ML. That’s bad engineering, late stage capitalism, and VCs who only care about scale and selling their consumers as products.

I'm working on some research with @phoenixperry.bsky.social Luke Dubois and @rebeccafiebrink.bsky.social on data sharing tools and frameworks for artists. We're hiring some fellows for the USA side of the work. Details are here.. Please share with your networks: tinyurl.com/fed-small-data

We’ve been doggedly reporting on Palantir’s contracts with UK state…& this latest one with Met police is both creepy & opaque. Met has used Palantir to spy on its own officers. If it can do this to its own employees…what about the rest of us? By @mc00.bsky.social & @luciaoc.bsky.social

Wild idea. What if AI didn’t have to suck? How would you imagine a different way? What practical steps can you take to build that world? Feminism doesn’t always need to be critique. It can be construction.

These last few weeks I’ve been thinking about big tech AI and I keep coming back to the same thing. AI isn’t the problem. It’s the lack of social cohesiveness in society - that’s the issue. Blaming everything on the companies to fix while failing to regulate capital and tax the rich will not work.

Interested in how New Metaphors can help us imagine futures in new ways? Join @jochamb.bsky.social, Palak Dudani, and me at Norwich University of the Arts from 21–24 June for an intensive, immersive, and international workshop norwichuni.ac.uk/events/new-m... — please share!

SPOKE can easily be coded to work in a bunch of different modes. Or a combination of different ones. Or completely new ones we hadn't thought about yet as it's all run in #Circuitpython www.spokeboard.com for more info!

I find it intriguing that I have been publishing about Machine Learning since 2011 and back then no one understood what I was doing and now no one STILL understands what I am doing but they have all got an opinion about it. I have been overshadowed by people who shout loudest. Hilarious.

The ComfyUI tutorials on YouTube are the sleaziest version of - well everything. If you want edge lording supreme, it has never been easier to find your people I guess?🤮

Really excited about @nytimes.com talking about our game The Berlin Apartment! 🥹🙏💛

Oh Apollo! + The Berlin Apartment + Constance - Blue Backpack@bluebackpack.bsky.social · 7mo ago

Morning gift for us today! ⭐ @nytimes.com has reviewed our game The Berlin Apartment! 🥹💛 “From One Apartment, a window into generations” ✨ www.nytimes.com/2025/12/26/a...

Once you’ve finished binging Stranger Things, why not use the holiday break to learn game AI programming? 😎 If you’re up for the challenge, I made a 20+ hour course covering everything from theory to practice! 🧑‍💻 (Oh, and there’s a cheeky 50% discount in the next tweet! 🎁👇)

If you're a student and you're generating your class work, you're hurting yourself. This will damage your long term potential. Now is when you learn to synthesis and develop new ideas from existing, complex, information. Skip that and you lose out for a lifetime.

I consider this a pretty good self own. I asked Meta's AI about Llama 3 running locally and the data it preferred and it could not answer me - in fact, it refused the message.🤣

Let me tell you folks, not caring if you're liked at work is so freeing - I 100% recommend it.

I am always left wondering about the colonized mindset of white dudes writing game coding tutorials who have to frame every single example as an enemy, weapon, collection, or damage point. What world are you wanting to create? What does this say about you, the culture?

Why is coffee the most perfect thing ever? Honestly, it’s the only proof have that there could be a god. 😂

What does ethical data sharing for training AI look like for artists?
