I won't buy slop.
I bet you bought more slop games than you'd like to admit. This stupidity is boundless.
Really?
How much did I just win from your bet?
Since I own zero games with slop in them, what we have here is you just you talking out of your ass.
The stupidity is boundless.
If it's made with GenAI it shouldn't be copyrighted if nothing else.
if it's made with GenAI, they can sell it to llms and bots.
I'm in the market for games by humans, for humans.
Exactly, especially if its been trained on copyrighted stuff.
Bad news then: almost all software engineers will be using various forms of genAI for their work, let that be LLMs for coding or image generation for quickly visualising things.
any source for that?
Am software engineer. Am required by work to use it lest they lose their ungodly investment into a tool that wastes as much time as it does money.
Am software engineer as well. Have not been required by my old or new job to use this crap.
Sounds like a nice deal. Every job posting I've seen here comes from a company that wants you to use an LLM.
In the US? I'd wager most software devs aren't from there.
As opposed to where? India? China?
Companies in the US aren't the only ones pushing AI.
It's a logical conclusion of the present situation. No one will pay for grass or asphalt textures, when genai can produce more variety than any human asset artist ever could. In coding it's a more complicated situation, but for certain tasks it's almost dumb not to use ai. Even of you don't use it to actually write code it's still helpful to a varying degree.
Ok so no source, just a feeling. Hey, nothing wrong with that, just don't present it as a fact.
Yeah I guess some people with no moral backbone will do that
they're certainly welcome to do so.
I will not buy.
