And if we want it to see games as art, I think we need to stop focusing so much on technology and appreciate the limitations, stop this "we can make this 1999 game look better now with more graphics!" It's like saying Casablanca is better with color in it (which I'm sure some sicko did already)

It's this eternal dichotomy of wanting games to be recognized as art... but also as technology... but now also as sports some times...

This Washington Post report haunts me every day

"Efforts to diversify gender norms face profound technical challenges. For instance, when OpenAI tried to remove violent and sexual images from training data for DALL- E 2, the company found that the tool produced fewer images of women because a large portion of women in the data set came from pornography and images of graphic violence.

To fix the issue in DALL-E 3, OpenAI retained more sexual and violent imagery to make its tool less predisposed to generating images of men."

I wrote about Elon Musk's "autonomous" robots and a 1959 tech fair in Moscow where the Americans used similar tactics to show off a robot that was actually controlled by some guy hiding in the next room.

An American tech fair in Moscow during the Cold War featured a robot vacuum secretly operated by remote control.

On a recent ComicLab episode from the NCS, one of the panelists noted a big uptick in requests for *real* artwork because clients were seeing very similar, unreal AI stuff polluting the world, and they felt handcrafted human work would stand out! I loved hearing that.

Publicly shame people who mess up so they won't tell anyone about any issues when they happen.
