The October 2026 edition of Steam Next Fest started on October 19, allowing users to explore Steam’s massive catalog of games with free playable demos. Millions of PC gamers logged on but on…
Oh wow another post from a licker who can’t consider the various nuances of this topic.
A production team using tools to automate portions of their workload is not the problem. I would argue we should have another term for these “AI” tools so that we can talk about them without the rightful fury we have towards AI as a whole.
Generative AI is a blight. Vibe-coding is a blight. A large number of people who have not drunk the AI enhanced kool-aid can see this clear as day.
And we arnt even talking about the blight data centers and their out of touch tech overlords are bringing to the conversation; its all entangled.
I dont give a shit if a team wants to use a model to help with certain tasks and then review it by hand before PR. That leaves a human in the middle who presumably understands the output based on their prior experience / years of hard earned knowledge. I also dont care if an artist wants to train a model on their own content to help with content creation, that’s a cool use case. Or a model trained on royalty fee / public domain…I can see a use case for this but we still need to weigh that against “could I have provided work for a local artist, programmer, etc.” Are we disincentivising these passions by taking away the already limited income sources available.
Anyway I forgot the point I was trying to make, Fuck AI (outside of a few morally acceptable use cases)

You do realise they’re the same fucking tools, right? Your wilful ignorance doesn’t change that.
