ah, yep, the pivot to the next Big Tech Thing™ is starting now, with it being quantum computing just like many people predicted: blog.google/innovation-a... AI is fucking done for lmao

The actual math in this paper is over the heads of non-mathematicians but the core argument is pretty easy to follow: AI theorem-prover formalizations can't actually be trusted to faithfully be the same argument as the natural-language paper they come attached to arxiv.org/abs/2610.081...

Honestly I think like 50% of the Teams 101 course is just me saying this in 30 different ways with 15 different methods of making sure everybody on your team understands that decisions are made to be executed on, not argued about further, that's the whole-ass point of it being a decision.
no game dev skill is more important than making up your fuckin mind

Gonna keep telling this story. I watched an hour long "How To Write An AI Novel" how to video out of curiosity and I shit you not, 60% of the video was about how to trick Claude into writing something that didn't look like it was AI. If genAI is a tool, it's core audience uses it mostly for fraud.

Devs, pay attention to who is actually, practically offering support to our laid off colleagues. It’s not the companies, it’s not the ESA, it’s the union, it’s us.

trying to scream this from the top of rooftops
Oh hey, yep, basically same conclusions we came to. Like even if you're willing to write off the ethical stuff, there's a bunch of super boring business reasons to not go anywhere near it. Including "it appears to erode your abilities even if you're aware of that risk going in." That's uh. Um. No.

not me being a sobby mess rn remembering what @remedygames.com have been up to and how that's the kinda stuff i wanna do and ppl will always love things like that as the industry splits into two futures, one of the artistic medium it is and the other of the pipedream that execs have been chasing
This is not to diminish any of the very real problems plaguing our industry right now. The best way to ensure we're more in the former than the latter is to unionize. uvw-cwa.org

"If it seems like a big risk to unionize, it is worth remembering that plenty of non-union members lose their jobs unfairly every year, the difference is that it happens with no scrutiny. And if you think organizing will not make a difference, it already has."
NEW: Grand Theft Auto VI developer Rockstar has been accused of ignoring pay inequity, mandating crunch, and weaponizing bonuses by multiple unionized employees in the United Kingdom.
