Yeah it’s especially eyebrow raising to see famous/rich movie directors play that angle. Of COURSE you can’t replace the celebrated genius director with a machine, but everybody at the VFX house that sacrificed their sanity to meet the crazy deadlines is just a replaceable cog.

Listening to folks of various backgrounds talk about AI in gamedev, and a common theme in the 'pro' side is that folks of department N are sure the work of department M is non-critical/non-creative and can be comfortably farmed out to generative AI. I can't stop thinking about this.

Rant time: the fact that std::initializer_list in C++ is a partial language construct with special syntax, a compiler-generated array with special lifetime, yet needs a header and an std::initializer_list to provide a type is BONKERS. Looks like any other std type, yet it's not.

I wrote an essay about why I'm done using AI for coding, even if it costs me my job and career: brettcodes.com/im-done-usin... The basic gist is: AI made me a worse, apathetic programmer. I think it's bad for humanity, the planet, and the craft of software engineering. And I'm done using it.
