I don't use Twitter much now but I wanted to congratulate the team at Studio Hip Sword on the release of The Siege of Jeomdo! I helped out a little on this title with playtesting and proofreading. Awesome to see a group of indie devs paving their own path!

War has finally reached your shores.
The Siege of Jeomdo is available now for PC, Mac and Steam Deck.

@CmndrConnor Nice, looking good so far!

@GenePark Another correct opinion from my man Gene Park

My friend showed me how to use polymer clay so I made Phantom #bettelful

[Ruby Z @ruby_zimm]

@momichiword Oh this is such an appropriate reference for Bettel!

All I need in this game is the return of The Former! I love that freaky little bug worm eldrich horror. Just a little guy.

Dylan is awake, Jesse has 'gone fishing,' and the Hiss have broken containment. Now it's his turn to fight back against the current.

I find what's being unsaid here disturbing: the reason removing em-dashes from ChatGPT responses is a "win" that is worthy of an announcement is that em-dashes are primarily used to sniff out if a published work was written by ChatGPT.

What purpose does this serve except to more covertly pass off AI writing as human writing?

If people didn't care that an article etc was AI generated, why would this sort of thing be worthy of a dedicated announcement?

An argument I've seen is that writers who frequently use em-dashes in their work are wrongly being accused of using ChatGPT, and this is a step toward mitigating that.

But this is a smokescreen that functions on the assumption that people are only upset when they can see the cracks and are otherwise indifferent to AI writing if they can't tell the difference.

The truth of this sneakily insidious announcement is that it is a declaration not only that ChatGPT's designers are aware that people do not want to read things written by AI, but also that ChatGPT functions better as a product when it deceptively hides its fingerprints.

Were AI designers fine with laws or industry standards requiring disclosure around the use of AI, this seemingly innocuous fix wouldn't have even crossed Mr. Altman's mind to announce. In fact, if disclosure was a standard, writers would not be accused of using AI in the first place; the simple omission of "written using AI" from their work would be enough.

@Katie_TriPixels Interested to chat to you in DMs about this, as someone at a studio who was also approached numerous times

[Ruby Z @ruby_zimm]

To the Moon expo: an interesting turn of events. Maybe I will stop receiving emails trying to sell booth space now.

Retweeting - I missed the Death Stranding anniversary but finished DS2 recently! #HiggsMonaghan #DeathStranding2

Troy Baker's birthday, and Higgs Monaghan remains one of my favourite video game villains (and cosplays)

@NotAMitten Had to find your Twitter just to say your Metaphor Relaxed UI mod is life changing
