Holy gracious smokes...
I rarely comment on such cases, but... but sometimes it's so challenging to... to realize how "AI" is getting used nowadays even if you try closing eyes on it already just to keep moving forward... and not stagnate in sorrow...

I've just noticed the following video-game posted, and which was blurred by an anti-AI extension installed: "AI Warning For Steam".

I would skip it entirely if not a recent conversation regarding it noticed on certain IRC channel, and myself having experience in crystal manufactories...
Then, I opened the Steam store page, and read:

# AI Generated Content Disclosure...

Some of the artwork used on this store page, including the capsule art, was created using generative AI tools.

Source: https://store.steampowered.com/app/5095670/Chip_Builder

Attached the "capsule art" mentioned.
Dear ruby smokes... The Authors, Artists, Developers of such projects, please do consider taking a photo of an actual motherboard with the logo engraved or applied in Photoshop... and remove this sorrowful disclosure...

Otherwise, your project may get missed, unnoticed, and not get a significant attention from those who actually search for it...


The "capsule art"

Great! Thats covered. Anyway, I'm starting a game of fix it! Its awesome! Here's how to play. If something is broken in your house, just wear 10 action cameras on your body while you fix the problem. You get extra points for sharing materials and recording cleanup procedures! Best of all its just $59.98! for a limited time until the robo...until they no longe...until we record the final boss!

Something you’ll never need because ai will just take that job

I am sorry, but I disagree. There's always someone responsible for the "AI" output.
Responsibility inherits understanding.

In this case, this is also utterly interesting to know.
And without those "chips" nor you and me, I believe, would ever be able to send and received our messages under this post today, and the post would never exist, too.

I have you tagged as a bot lol. All your history reads like one.

[–] artwork@lemmy.world 1 points 3 days ago* (last edited 3 days ago)

I am sorry to know that...

Such a sorrowful time to live indeed...
The time, effort, feelings of people... get devalued, ruined, obliterated, hated, forgotten...

Thank you... for a yet another example, dear @Blibittyblah@futurology.today ...
I hope you will never meet anyone like you, who devalues you, your work, and and your existence...
Please do stay safe...


Meanwhile, I literally sent them an Email message back then (2026-10-26 02:06:34 UTC):

Ever heard the story of Cobol the forgotten?

[–] Blibittyblah@futurology.today -2 points 3 days ago

Can you keep telling it and have it be relevant in 2026? ;) because AI can just do it for you… or well enough that you aren’t needed.
