In October, the floodgates burst open, and the games industry fully embraced AI. It was bad, topped off by Valve saying its not their job to curtail AI slop on Steam. Did you know Gabe Newell donated $20 million to OpenAI?

I keep (or, kept) a running list of every video game studio that uses AI. It grew to over 85 developers in October. With all the devs lashing out and defending their AI use, and the rise of text-to-game AI engines, I can’t keep doing it anymore.

    The greeds take every single industry and try to squeeze every last dime out of it. Also, any job that’s a fun job to have, they’ll exploit the workers down to the absolute minimum. Right now, they think that’s AI. Boy are they going to wake up with a metaphoric anvil to the face.

      Nah. They’re just gonna pull some politician strings to force the regular hard-working pleebs to bail them out via taxes that they avoid paying themselves. Like they always do.
