Samus in Pokopia!?

Hey! I made a romantic comedy one-shot called "Mermaid Hangover" for the Kadokawa World Manga Contest. You'll be able to read it next Sunday (April 5) at 12PM CET on my Pixiv.

Hey, but on the plus side, at least people can code 10 percent faster now. Or was it 10 percent slower? I don't remember.

Omg, same! Duck Duck Go isn't perfect either but at least they're trying *something*. I also make ample use of the "flag AI image" function when something does slip through the cracks.

Do you ever image search for something completely mundane like "dolphin jumping out of water" and you have the sinking feeling that like half of the results are going to be AI-generated?

Now if you'll excuse me, I gotta go see how much people hated the ending of Chainsaw Man.

For you it may have been just a regular Tuesday. But for me it was the day that Open AI finally imploded. ❤️

Oh no not Sora! Whatever shall we do?! Here I thought this technology was ‘inevitable’ and we are ‘simply going to have to adapt’ if we ‘don’t want to get left behind.’

OpenAI is shutting down Sora AI platform 👍
Disney is exiting their $1 billion investment 👍

Disney has cancelled their deal with OpenAI.

They planned to invest $1 billion into the company and let Sora have access to AI generate videos of characters from Disney, Marvel, Pixar and Star Wars.

Not content to just steal from the real deal, this game is also ripping off fan designs 😬

This is like saying that crude oil is a very efficient source of energy if you ignore all the plankton and algae that decayed over the course of hundreds of millions of years. "It takes a lot of energy to train a human." Where the fuck do you think the training data came from, Clamuel?

Oh no! Anyway, I think I will have Gyoza for dinner.

Open AI doesn't even use their own products YouTube video by Max Hofert

Max Hofert wonders why the company that's trying to sell you on the benefit (and inevitability) of synthetic text and synthetic images and synthetic video, used human actors and expensive 35mm cameras for their ad campaign. This isn't just odd — it's weird.

You should really give Rhythm Heaven a look next. That franchise is the pioneer of the 1 to 2-button* rhythm game and is just as visually and musically creative (if not more!)

"concept artists can experiment with AI to make their lives easi-"

wrong

I smack you with Claire Hummel's immaculate and detailed understanding of costume design, which she got by studying historical references, which made her strong, which you will not become by relying on AI

Concept Artists Say Generative AI References Only Make Their Jobs Harder We spoke to a dozen professional concept artists working in games about whether generative AI image tools have made their jobs any easier. Zero said it did.

“The ‘early ideation stages’, when worlds are being fleshed out by writers and artists, are literally crucial to the development of a game’s vision,” stressed Canavan. “This is what concept artists were made for. Why would you pollute that glorious creative movement with joyless, photocopied art?”

Credits for Brent Porter (3D art lead) and Catherine Menabde (2D art lead) are shown here. There's a lengthy description of what they did, with a pastiche of various Demonschool characters underneath, messing around with a computer.

We did something different with the credits for Demonschool. We used this format: name, title, lengthy description of what they did. Often you see credits in games where you don't know what the credited developer was actually responsible for. We wanted to give people proper, actual credit.
