PSA on how to turn off that feature since I haven't seen anyone post it: User Settings > Data & Privacy > Channel Messages then turn it off

Please listen to this amazing Halloween special! It's so good -- and I'm not just saying that because I wrote a chapter and did some voicing! The editing is amazing, the narrative is strongly character-driven, and it's just plain fun. Part 2 coming out next weekend!

Replying to @kavi.bsky.social

When I first heard about AI being used for menus and advertisements, my concern was largely that it would be used to idealize the food and make it look better than it actually was. At no point did I imagine that restaurants would willingly put out horrific looking images of their food on purpose

Every time a discourse kicks off over whether AI music, literature or art will be "as good as" the real thing, I'm always amazed more people don't cite that **there already are** creative pursuits where human-free spectacles have been available for decades, and nobody has ever wanted to watch them.

Correction: A company marketing a cartoon character obtained the cooperation of an opportunistic journalist for an infomercial, and it failed.

Tilly Norwood, a controversial AI “actor,” abruptly switched languages during an interview with Piers Morgan, though the company behind the AI creation denied she malfunctioned.

1. Voice acting. This is a major turn-off for me personally. If the Wild Era and Warriors games are any indication, I know I'll have to *immediately* change the cutscene dialogue to Japanese just to keep from cringing the whole game.

2. Because of the console's limitations, architecture on Nintendo 64 inherently took on a very brutalist look. I recognize that look as part of the original OoT's identity these days. So, as nice as the new game looks, I'm seeing the buildings softened to meet the new style, and that's sad.

Some new personal work where I haven’t make a poster in a while and thought I’d base it on Rez since it offered something that I could play about with while keeping it all abstract and psychedelic in tone. #illustration #illustrator #madeinaffinity #poster #videogame

Even if you don't stream, go turn this off. While it says "channel content" which implies streams, it'll likely be trying to capture your chat messages too. Don't think this doesn't affect you cause you don't stream. Turn it off. And check regularly to make sure it stays off.

I would like to see more companies admit this - being a public company no longer means running a successful, thriving business. It strictly means delivering growth to investors, every single quarter, who do not care at all about the product the company sells or the people who produce it.
