Hey Epic Games. Go f*ck yourself. I am so sick and tired of companies adding bullsh*t genAI to their products, especially given they usually have no way of opting-out. F*ck genAI, f*ck companies that try and force it onto you. (0 / I dunno). Source: www.unrealengine.com/news/the-roa... .

I am not even going to f*cking touch any ethical reasons (well, I'm about to, but you know what I mean) during this rant, because even though the ethics of genAI disqualify it already. (1 / I Dunno). The rest of this paragraph was too long so splitting here.

I had to write a like 6 page paper about the ethics of using it to write code, and my opinions are basically the same about all forms of genAI... and my paper was 8 pages long + references, so I clearly had ethical problems with it. (2 / I Dunno).

I create things for the joy of creation. The process that I take to get to a completed project is as enjoyable, or more enjoyable, than the completed project. Watching someone enjoy something that I've made, whether that be a game, some art, music, video, whatever, I feel joy as well. (3 / ?).

Using genAI to make something for me just completely ruins all enjoyment that I get out of making that thing. You can go ahead and call me old fashioned, or a tech hater... and you'd be wrong, and I won't care. Some of my motivation for doing things is because the process of doing is fun. (4 / ?).
