I really dislike the idea of indies and AA games being inherently lesser than big budget games. A game's value does not stem from how many people worked on it but how it made you feel.

AI is not embedded in society, nor is it unavoidable. I have never *once* used generative AI. No matter how many times you say that, you're wrong. Generating a picture using an LLM isn't survival. It's destruction of the planet for convinence. Lines must be drawn somewhere.

It *is* unethical. Extremely so. And also completely and utterly avoidable. Your criticism of eating meat doesn't excuse the enviromental destruction you cause from using a completely avoidable technology.
