Roblox will shut down servers that are flagged for repeated rulebreaking.




















Some shower thoughts on AI and Game Dev: * For #RobloxDev I've stopped using AI to write a lot of code. Instead using it to fix code which reduce our bug fixing times often by 90%+. The speed at which AI detects common mistakes still blows my mind. * AI writing our codebase has made it hard to expand upon. There's a delicate balance between speed and avoiding tech debt. * I'm still having AI write from scratch systems that stand independently. (e.g. lighting gradient effects) There is virtually no tech debt created here. * Until AI can create standalone Roblox games, you still need to learn coding and associated fields (math, physics, design principles) to use AI productively. * I'm not anti-AI but I do think it is reducing problem solving skills. The people who can leverage AI without losing their own creativity and problem solving ability will be the winners. * Learning to use AI as a power tool versus just "chatting" with ChatGPT creates a massive competitive advantage. (This applies to really anything in life though) Plain language conversations with AI are not enough. Learn custom prompting, teach AI your coding styles, etc. * AI is only going to get better and reduce the barrier to entry. This has both positive and negative implications for current/future Roblox developers depending on your opinion. Decide the size of your projects to work on with this in mind. I still think we have at least a few years before AI can create entire games.
