    I’m holding my judgment on AI assisted content. I already feel ai writing and image generation is still shitty, I’m less interested in something more complex like a video game.

    Also, my 20+ years in the workforce has taught me that large and small companies suffer the same exact problems and both are greedy. Ai will be used to not hire workers, but to increase worker output , not lighten their load.

    I trust indie companies to maybe make better content, but I expect them to rip off workers.

    Not that I’m defending EA. There’ve ruined so many franchises.
