    man so this is interesting, my 15 year old son is fervently against ai.. he was studying yesterday and i was like you should get notebook LM to make a podcast on the topic so when your done reading the paper, you can relisten to it and see if you missed anything. I have rarely seen him so annoyed by anything..

    its not like he is anti tech tho, he spends all his time gaming and modding minecraft.

    i think he is just pissed that growing up all he wanted to be was a game developer and AI has cannibalised his dream.

    he now wants to be a marine biologist.

    dont really have the heart to tell him ..

    • Massive game dev inspiration for me is the Sludge Life dev who shared his Unity work, it’s just kind of thrown together, doesn’t have to be perfectprophetone
    • Here’s one of his vids: https://youtu.be/GOW…prophetone
    • He posted rough, experimental games like Goblin Uzi to Itch as early works: https://goblinuzi.tu…prophetone
    • Point is his example has kind of shown me just get stuff out there, mess around, experiment, it’s inspiring and shows that you can just start small, funprophetone
