Twitter post of Slava Cherk happily posting his own games art that's been put through an AI image generator to make it simpsons themed while another user named Javi Lopez is praising him for doing so while calling for people to embrace Gen AI

Slava Cherk claiming ChatGPT's image generation is fun while posting a screenshot of his prompts to generate images based on his game stuido "Lazy bear games"

Slava cherk asking for technical help with AI code generation from cursor_AI

Co-founder of Graveyard Keeper dev Lazy Bear Games regularly posts AI art & asks for help with AI gen code

Going as far as feeding his own games art into the slop machine

The game itself is from 2018 so it predates the stuff, but they announced a sequel & I expect it to be full of AI-gen slop

Good episode but I miss Larry codes

Here are Dave and David's full unedited comments for those interested:

we used to build household shrines to Going On The Computer and it's no coincidence that as we abandoned these we started straying further from god's light

I’m at ICE HQ

I was asked to give my thoughts on generative AI usage in games - here they are!

if steam is asking developers to put in an AI-generated content disclosure, i should be able to filter those "games" out of searches because trudging through next fest demos is miserable now

Posting this here for reasons 😒

If you happen to see any Finji ads that look distinctly UN-Finji-like, send me a screencap.

If you are someone who writes intelligently about something like "massive company running ai versions of paid ads without small company's consent" idk, maybe reach out.

Honestly, AI slop PRs are becoming increasingly draining and demoralizing for #Godot maintainers.

If you want to help, more funding so we can pay more maintainers to deal with the slop (on top of everything we do already) is the only viable solution I can think of:

Opposite for me - I like to see some new IP but it felt like it was mostly games we'd already seen and sequels, remasters and remakes. But I still enjoyed it overall.

BREAKING: Ubisoft is canceling the Prince of Persia: Sands of Time remake and 5 other games (4 unannounced, 1 mobile). The company says it is also delaying 7 games (including an unannounced project believed to be a Black Flag remake) as part of a larger restructuring.

I was still speaking to my dad in 2020 when George Floyd was killed. I called him the day after and talked to him about it. He had seen the video and thought it was absolutely awful and morally repugnant.

Three days later, he was posting Candace Owens conspiracies about how Floyd was on drugs.

One of the core purposes of right-wing media is to rewrite your memory and reprogram your moral response to an event you saw with your own eyes. George Floyd died of a heart attack. Jan 6 was a peaceful picnic. This process has already begun

Have you seen "prompt engineers" or "AI artists" jealously guard or hide their prompts or accuse others of stealing their 'work' (prompts)? Incredible shit

Naughty Dog Studio Orders Employee Overtime for ‘Intergalactic’ The Sony-owned gamemakers have been racing to hit a December deadline

NEW: For the last seven weeks, Naughty Dog has enacted mandatory overtime for staff to finish an internal demo of their next game, Intergalactic. The game won't be out until 2027, leaving some staff wondering: If they're crunching now, what will next year be like? www.bloomberg.com/news/article...

"they don't know how to express the idea" here's rian johnson's storyboard for knives out

I completely agree with everything Alan says here: the game seems very cool, but I'm bummed about who Jon Blow has become over the years, and it's unfortunate that he's the face of it.
