this is the best most corporate-ass disclosure
Quote:At SEGA Corporation, we utilize generative AI as a support tool for developers, aiming to provide better content to our users and enable developers to focus more on creative tasks.
We have used such generative AI support tools during development of Crazy Taxi: World Tour. No AI was used in reference to the performers in the game.
steam doesn't require disclosure of use of AI on back-end stuff or like for coding, they only require it for visible content like textures or if you literally generate things on the fly as the game is running
so they wouldn't have said this if it wasn't in reference to textures, but they wrote it in such a way as to basically admit nothing
dumb indies are like "we used AI to generate some of the paintings on the walls in the background of level 3," but sega, no, they won't tell you which textures are AI, you just have to scrutinize every single one and seethe
 THAT WOODEN CRATE TEXTURE HAS AN UNNATURAL WOOD GRAIN PATTERN!!! AI SLOP!!!!!

its over...i cant in good conscious play the new crazy taxi because the pavement texture might've been generated by an LLM

Nothing will happen to Pedoblade 2 aside from selling mountains of units because the world and people suck. It's infuriating and it's sickening, but I have no illusion

Let me tell you, if you could actually just AI generate a complex background like this and simply plop it into your videogame then all the AI nay sayers would be fucked because every studio would do it
Where? Where's the staircase?
Like, it's a background. Who gives a fuck?
If less time is wasted designing window dressing and backgrounds so more time can be allocated to developing actually good gameplay and consequential parts of the game, then I'm a fucking AI evangelist!

I have been revisited by the crying disinformation Pogijones ghost and I think I picked the wrong shot from the trailer. This one has a stair case, although I'm pretty sure there's an opening in the building so it doesn't go into nowhere

Photoshop uses AI algorithms. Graphic designers not using pixel by pixel design philosophy is literal artist genocide.
Man, they just get worse. Every year. They are always angry and foaming at the mouth. At what point do you chill? You don't have to engage with everything.

And honestly, I am the type of woman those pathetic excuses are meant to be 'standing up for.' I know exactly what it's like to be petite and objectively just baby faced, while also being "well developed". Yes, people infantalize and it's frustrating in a lot of ways. Not wanting to feel like you can't be or behave like an adult because of looks you didn't choose is not the same as "here is a sexualized child. This is fine because of xyz. Cultural differences. Some women are petite you know. People age differently." I am not a child, I don't look to be viewed as a fetishized child. It gets pretty fucking weird and fast actually, it is exhausting.
Guess who is also petite, has a sweet young leaning face, and a sexy look that people are debating the look of on this very page but not getting put on any lists for liking regardless because she is not framed as a literal child? Tifa Lockhart. Do you know which college aged battle ready little sister type was given a baby-face in their recent look that people are praising at this very showcase? Claire Redfield. Two characters who mean a lot to me incidentally, despite historically having issues in their portrayals. The purposeful disrespectful and dehumanizing depictions in SB are clear to anyone not pretending to be oblivious. 1. Rinoa~ previously said she was "bullied for being curvy". Now she claims she is "petite" and "babyfaced". Larp larp sahur, fatty
2. They are literally bitching about Tifa Lockhart and Clair Redfield on the same page.🤦

Quote:I think a lot of the tension is coming down to how much FD doesn't like BE on the basis of him being white and an asshole online which, fair dues, but it is wrong to say that BE is nothing more than a grifter when he has done material work not just for Palestine but also for places like Cuba. But in that same vain BE was wrong to say that FD doesn't care about Palestine or has never discussed it or other serious political issues which in turn comes from his hardline stance on American imperialism and American liberalism in general. Both have made snap and inaccurate judgements about one another, it's stupid, and I wish they'd both just let this shit die so they can continue doing more meaningful work.
For context, Bad Empanada has been calling people "ZOG slave" (a neo nazi term) and K*ke. FD signifier called him out on it during a discussion, a discussion Nepenthe clearly watched, and here she is talking about how that doesn't really matter because it's just optics. Something tells me she wouldn't say that if the guy was calling people the N-word. Haven't seen a lot of this type of talk on Era, not even from Nepenthe.  This guy is nothing but bangers:

Since some people here clearly still doubt that Jeff is factually correct, Nazis are smelly and alone:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Savitri_Devi wrote:was a French-born Greek Nazi activist, spy, and author. She served the Axis powers by committing acts of espionage against the Allied forces in India. An exponent of esoteric Hitlerism, she became a leading member of the neo-Nazi underground during the 1960s. Savitri was a proponent of a synthesis of Hinduism and Nazism, proclaiming Adolf Hitler to have been an avatar of the Hindu god Vishnu. She depicted Hitler as a sacrifice for humanity that would lead to the end of the worst age, the Kali Yuga, which she believed was induced by the Jews. She was also a radical animal rights activist and vegetarian.
Savitri was an associate in the post-war years of several neo-Nazi and Nazi figures. She was also one of the founding members of the World Union of National Socialists. Her writings have influenced neo-Nazism and esoteric neo-Nazism. Within neo-Nazism, she promoted occultism and ecology, and her works have influenced the alt-right.
...
After retiring from teaching in 1970, Savitri Devi spent nine months at the Normandy home of her close friend Françoise Dior while she was working on her memoirs; although she was welcome at first, her annoying personal habits began to disrupt life at the presbytery (among her habits, she did not take baths during her stay and she continually chewed garlic). Concluding that her pension would go much further in India and encouraged by Françoise Dior, she flew from Paris to Bombay on 23 June 1971. In August, she moved to New Delhi, where she lived alone, with a number of cats and at least one cobra. Spoiler: (click to show)(click to hide) Quote:Devi was also an animal rights activist, as well as a vegetarian from a young age, and she also espoused ecologist views in her works. She wrote Impeachment of Man in 1959 in India[15] in which she espoused her views on animal rights and nature. According to her, human beings do not stand above the animals; in her ecologist views, humans are a part of the ecosystem and as a result, they should respect all life, including animals and the whole of nature.
She held radical views with regard to vegetarianism[15] and believed that people who do not "respect nature or animals" should be executed. She also believed that vivisection, circuses, slaughter and fur industries among others do not belong in a civilised society.
She was like a Greek woman, who was also an ultra Nordicist that believed in magic and married an Indian guy. Anarcho-Autistic to the max.

Quote:After World War II, she travelled to England in 1945[7] under the name Savitri Devi Mukherji as the wife of a British subject from India, with a British Indian passport. She briefly stopped in England, then she visited her mother in France, with whom she would quarrel over the latter's support for the French Resistance.[16]
Got arrested in Germany and expelled so she just got another passport from Greece.
Quote:Arrested for posting bills, she was tried in Düsseldorf on 5 April 1949 for the promotion of Nazi ideas on German territory as a subject of the Allied Control Council, and sentenced to three years imprisonment. She served time in Werl Prison, where she befriended her fellow Nazi and SS prisoners (recounted in Defiance), before she was released early in August 1949 and expelled from Germany. She then resided in Lyon, France.[23][22]
In April 1953, she obtained a Greek passport in her maiden name in order to re-enter Germany, and while she was there, she went on a pilgrimage, as she called it, to Nazi "holy" sites.
