Writer, Game Master, etc... Also the very slow editor of a very poorly-made DnD podcast: The World Below.

The World Below, Session 33: Elankir, the Green
A less combat/dungeon crawl heavy session, to be sure! This one is more narrative-focused, but most importantly, Ailmar is back!

Re: Big Walk
Human beings do not flourish in spite of their limitations, but often through them. It is precisely when our limitations become tangible in our lives that we can discover a new wisdom, experience the closeness of others, and encounter the presence of the Lord. #ApostolicJourney #Argentina #MagnificaHumanitas

Generative AI is - at its very core - an anti-human movement.

A reminder that almost all forms of current AI are made with mountains of content stolen from creators without their consent. These creators never see a cent of this and lose their jobs while the AI companies make ridiculous amount of money from it with no regards to anything.
Reading the Critical Role discourse, and like- if you (reading this) are anything like Whitney as a player, and wanna play a beautiful tiefling cleric in a silly little online game. I will make it happen, I have a seat available, I am on my knees rn. 🥺🙏

I take it all back; maybe it's a blessing that I average like 5 viewers per episode, lol.
god FUCK is Whitney a bad player. didnt give a shit about what the dm told her and its not a matter of note taking its a matter of whether you care about the story or not. and it was not because tyranny is "chaotic" its because she is simply unclever #criticalrolespoilers

Young people actively hate AI.
My two younger daughters are 19 and 18, both at universities - one in the UK the other in Italy. Through them, I happen to know quite a few kids their age.
And ALL OF THEM seem to universally hate AI.
To them it's "something old people invented that we now have to deal with... as if climate change wasnt enough"
AI is cringe. When they introduce me to their friends, they literally say "heyya, meet my dad, he's a software engineer but nonono, NOT IN AI, dont worry, hahah".
They hate it for flooding their social feeds with slop, ruining music, taking phone scams to the next level, also destroying careers & devaluing their hobbies - why become an architect, this skill is about to become worthless? Why learn a musical instrument if session musicians are already obsolete?
The outcome is interesting, though - they're spending less and less time on public social, meeting up IRL, moving their online lives into private group chats with actual verified friends. TikTok and Reels are increasingly cringe-something for old dudes.
Which, I guess, might be a net positive after all...

AI “vibe coding” is starting to create a serious problem for the video game industry.
The release of Claude Opus 5.5 has made it much easier to decompile and recompile games, leading to a wave of unofficial ports, mods and game clones. Publishers are already filing DMCA takedowns over some of this activity. Kotaku
Former Take-Two AI chief Luke Dicken says developers and publishers need to take the trend seriously:
“This new wave of decompile-and-port is definitely something that developers and publishers need to take seriously.”
“More invasive DRM, platform-level solutions, and probably more of a push towards streaming solutions.”
Godot executive director Emilio Coppola puts more responsibility on platforms such as Steam, arguing that developers have very few ways to protect themselves while bad actors can profit from selling AI-made clones:
“The burden should fall onto the platforms who are enabling this sort of behavior.”
There’s also a growing concern among indie developers about showing unfinished games publicly. Coppola says he has heard from developers who are now:
“Worried and anxious to even share early access versions of their games”
