Why AI is a mistake: exhibit 562 This is a real ad promoting theft. Microsoft knows what they're doing is wrong. They're revelling in it. The optics here (white guy stealing from a Black man who did the work) just makes things worse.
The first genuinely honest ad for generative AI I've ever seen, from Microsoft / CoPilot A mediocre white guy sees his non-white colleague getting praised for good work, he asks AI to *literally copy it*, and then he gets all the praise instead: www.ispot.tv/ad/SoDi/micr...

Why AI is a mistake: exhibit 400 AI kills communities. Why get together to build something if an AI can do it for you? Who is checking what the AI is putting out?
A video game reverse engineering community has shut down because many games can now be trivially reverse engineered and decompiled with AI: "The community aspect of decompilation has been broken." www.404media.co/video-game-r...

Lately I've been seeing a lot of depressing posts about how people discard their own experiences in favor of efficiency and utility, and for some reason I needed to launch into a disjointed and pedantic rant about why useless is good.

The saddest part of this news? There's going to be no pushback from the FGC at large, at least not enough to make ArcSys reconsider. It's a shame too, because there are lots of LGBTQ ArcSys players. Some of them were even champions.
Arc Revo Qiddiya is a Platinum event as part of the Arc World Tour 2026/2027 season taking place in January. Registration opens in December
