@JakeParkerLIVE @Bungie @DestinyTheGame Asking for $3-5mil is a bold move cotton. Lets see if it pays off.

Alright @Bungie: Hire me for @DestinyTheGame. Pay me a salary just above cost of living to move to Seattle. Give me a 10-person development team of my making to lead. Give me a 1yr development budget. I guarantee we have replayable and monetizable PvE & PvP content in 6 month and 12 month milestones. Ball's in your court.

@ThinkAppraiser The second part is accurate

Dude said he was spending at MINIMUM $400,000/month even after he retired He also said “$100M is really only $60M after taxes” 😭

@ckaleiki Loved the early version excited to see what you all cooked up

Today is the launch day of our first game, Eldegarde! It started as a PvPvE Fantasy Extraction Game, but we now call it a Mini MMO as it now also has a dedicated PvE mode, PvP Arena Mode, and a new Boss Dungeon! Think of it as a fantasy version of Ark Raiders... 👉 Buy now on Steam! store.steampowered.com/app/2344320/El…

@MLFootball Now do Drake Maye and see how meaningless this is

WILD: #CHARGERS JUSTIN HERBERT HAS MORE INTERCEPTIONS THIS SEASON THAN WINS AGAINST TEAMS WITH WINNING RECORDS IN HIS ENTIRE CAREER... Justin Herbert INT's this season: 13 Wins against teams over .500: 12 YIKES 😬😬

@slightlyvampy @AntifaCostanza you can! people who hate ai should

The way people are reacting to this lol. You may as well have deep ethical objections to the use of search engines.

@OhElune Why not AI that steals from developers?

@Swoly_ Yeah im gonna hate on AI that steals from artists

@GoodGameKofi this is actually one of the best analogies ive seen

You hate avocado. You eat a sandwich without knowing it has avocado and you love it. Then you find out avocado was in it, and now you’re upset lol Generative Ai discourse summed up

@scoutfreak Dont forget that people are complaining on an app created by devs who use AI in every day tasks / code AND use their data to train Grok lol

Larian used AI for their mood boards to use at meetings and now the whole internet is on fire while just last week everyone was basically riding them all the way down to the base over the trailer. Funny things happening.

@HoegLaw this trains left the station already

The end result of this level of backlash is NOT the end of generative AI, it IS the end of the remotest transparency about how Gen AI is used.

@ValephoreVT 🙌🙌🙌

Concept Artist here, the "AI hate" directed at Larian Studio is 100% ignorant and bad faith virtue-signaling. Artists are NOT against AI usage as a tool, we're against Generative AI that was trained on real artworks and mass-produced "slops" that imitated our hard work and then marketed as our replacement. In pre-production, the art team would grab random pics off the internet and other games to create a general mood board for aesthetics and "vibe" that fit the art direction (There are more nuances than this, I'm describing this in the most simplified way possible) A mood board of a character may include several pictures of other videogames or anime shows, dozens of object with "texture references" for parts of their attire, multiple reference pictures of relevant objects such as animals or historical weapons or even other character artwork made for other games; ALL of which are randomly drawn from the internet and put together for the purpose of creating an overall aesthetic for a design that will become original in its own way inspired by its references and the artist's own creativity and originality to visualize it when they create the design by doing ART. Larian Studio mentioned using AI to streamline this process; an actively menial labor of "looking for relavant and cool pics on the internet" in essence. There is zero reason why AI speeding up this process is a bad thing; it is essentially the same as someone asking Grok for facts they could have spent a few hours reading through Wikipedia pages. None of the pictures grabbed by either the AI or the art team in this process are being exploited for any monetary gain since they're simply inspiration and visual direction, this has been standard practice in the industry for decades.

@PionerGame Why not consider a free model w/ paid cosmetics and battlepass etc? Out of curiosity if adoption ends up being an issue

@teamspeak good lord. thats a lot of resources.

Yann LeCun (Chief AI Scientist, Meta, @ylecun), @PimDeWitte (CEO, General Intuition), and Aude Durand (Kyutai, @aude_drn), talk about world models, embodied agents, Yann's new company, and the limitations of LLMs 0:00 - Introduction to World Models 5:00 - Why World Models, Intuition & Introducing Yann's new company 10:00 - Architectures + Merging Language & Interaction Data towards General Agents 20:00 - Open Source, Sovereign AI & @kyutai_labs Partnership Keynote for #aiPULSE2025 at Station F in Paris 🇫🇷

Unfortunately @ARCRaidersGame will die a quick death if they don't get their cheating problem fixed. Playing for 1 hour and dying to 4 people with multiple VAC bans playing racial slur music over their mic is not a fun experience. :(

@PimDeWitte @ylecun This is so awesome and exciting Pim

Excited to do the keynote on World Models with @ylecun at AI Pulse on Thursday. still not quite sure why I got invited to share the time with this legend (if it’s a typo, you can still tell me!), but hopefully we can all go find out in Paris, I will be as curious as you! 🤣

@NBA2KMovement first try, pay up

$100 to anyone who could do this

@Gladd It’s definitely screaming Asian mobile game

Unfortunately, wasn’t really feeling Where Winds Meet. There was just so much going on on-screen, and I was having a hard time trying to figure out what the game was trying to present itself as. Boss fight combat was sick. But then it was menu-ception and UI-jank for an hour.
