Games are not tech and yet the great people who make them have been owned by Big Tech and are now being discarded en masse, because according to C-suits, tech can replace what they do.

Hard agree. Weird and beautiful.

Breaks my heart seeing massive layoffs hitting our industry again ☹️

In @cdprojektred.com we have a lot of openings, from The Witcher 4, to Cyberpunk 2, and other projects, across Poland, US and Canada. Please share it with your collogues and join us! 🥺

i think it would be useful for us as a society in this strange age to reorient our definitions of words like “art”

art being an act of labour that has emotionally expressive purpose and intent

leading things like generated “art” to be defined as, perhaps, “visuals”

it’s not art, it’s a visual
