This is probably the best ad I've seen against using generative AI: Mayer, who was an engineer at Google and a chief executive of Yahoo, has rotted her brain so much she can no longer classify her daughter as "empathetic, creative and an animal lover". The slide of competence is incredible.

Let me filter out AI disclosed games and I’ll be happy 👏

Steam@steampowered.com

Next Fest is back, with a new and improved UI for all your browsing needs! From now until October 26th, check out thousands (literally) of demos for games of all types - from frantic cooking typers to frozen railway games, there's something for everyone. store.steampowered.com/sale/nextfest

In today's episode of I HATE IT HERE, ft Steam Next Fest and AI content. Very useful extension!

Goddammit it's a miserable process going through the 8000-ish demos in Next Fest (starts later today) and seeing the overwhelming use of AI in so many games. I recommend this browser plugin for making it easier to spot - github.com/seeeeew/aiwa... - but Valve REALLY needs to make it a required tag.

When people suggest anything I work with would use GenAI (artwork specifically in this case). I hate it, and I hope you step in a puddle that makes your socks damp.

Was sent an "opportunity" for the company. Checked the background of the folks that got in touch - based and funded by Israel. Nope. Bye. Delete.

Hey crew! We are participating with Glitch Hunt in a competition called Next Play. For the next livestream, people get to pick which games move on in the contest. Help us get Glitch Hunt into the next round! rgda.ro/next-play-ro... Happy hacking! #gamedev #indiegame

Counting down the time until I get blocked by a dog poo bag company for complaining about their use of generative AI when their ethos is “compostable bags to cut down on plastic” lol 😂

They’ve also been deleting comments calling them out for using AI in adverts instead of addressing it. So if you’re using Adios Plastic poo bags, think again 😂 Once this set run out I won’t be repurchasing.

I am Jane Doe

Daryl Hannah@dhlovelife.bsky.social

fyi there is an “ I am Spartacus” moment happening right now to protect the victim in the Cornell horror to stand in solidarity & in order to protect her an anonymity we say “I am Jane Doe” & hopefully we can keep her from being doxxed

Thank you to our volunteers that have translated the Dreams on a Pillow store page into both Simplified Chinese and French for us. We are so grateful to everyone helping out spread the message of Khadra. <3 #DreamsOnAPillow

My favourite planet in the game tbh! So excited for folks to see more of it 🖤

Glitch Hunt@earlysun.bsky.social

Game dev can be exhausting sometimes. But being able to create worlds that you can later live in makes it all worth it. I’m really happy with how the next planet is coming along. (Sound on!) #ScreenshotSaturday #indiegame #pixelart

Ed Sheeran’s statement for Macklemore being dropped is ass. - There is no conflict in genocide - You’re telling me Ed Sheeran has no sway over the tour promoter? - Having a large and young audience is the best time to send out messages to stand for the good in the world, not sit by idly
