"The 'AI Stigma' is real and severely punishes developers": A new study shows how much using AI in games hurts sales, and the numbers are hard to believe (www.windowscentral.com)

It's a different story for the more established studios with an existing following and previous titles. Game Oracle found that the use of AI by these studios resulted in a significant 40% to 60% drop in sales.

That's a huge difference. AI stigma seems to hit competent developers with a lot to lose the hardest, and I'm not sure that game studios are ready to accept it.

And capitalism is literally killing the bees. People talk about the fact that beehives keep dying, as if it is some grand mystery involving cellphone towers or other nonsense, but it is because we keep shipping them around the country and spreading diseases among the wild bee populations. Those bees would not be naturally producing the amount of value they do without human labor.

Like, bees are extremely exploited animals, but nobody usually gives a shit because they are insects.
