Dieting Hippo @dhippo.net - 3d Game Dev how fair is it that the godot foundation gets to benefit from code generated off training data with my code in it, and i get no credit while the code generation company collects their fee from the people generating code from my code? Axe Ghost. On Steam! @axeghostgame.bsky.social Game Dev "how fair is it that the [any third party] gets to benefit from code written by people who learned things from code that i freely posted online, and i get no credit?" ethically identical situation. it's not a serious position. 1:03 AM · Jun 25, 2026

King County Library System Update on AI Community Listening Sessions Dear KCLS Community – Over the weekend many of you saw a message about some upcoming KCLS listening sessions on artificial intelligence. The wording caused confusion, and we want to correct that before these conversations take place. KCLS has made no plans or decisions for how, or whether, to provide patrons access to AI tools in the future. These sessions exist so we can listen to you, hear our community needs, requests and concerns. We believe the most important thing we can do, even in a conversation about technology, is keep people at the center. AI is changing how people find information, learn, and get things done. It’s also creating new problems: our staff get requests from patrons who have been told about books that don’t exist, and it’s getting harder to know what to trust online. KCLS's position on AI is straightforward. Our role is to ensure every community has access to information and resources, including about AI, so no one is left behind as this technology impacts daily life. We are not advocates for AI, nor are we opposed to it. We are a library, and our job is to make sure people can learn, evaluate, and decide for themselves. We’ve heard your concerns about job loss, AI in collections, and what happens to the human connection that makes libraries matter. Those concerns are ours too. KCLS has no plans to replace staff with AI. Our staffing decisions are driven by the needs of our communities and our people, not by automation or perceived efficiencies. And our collections reflect the work of human authors and creators. These listening sessions are a chance for your voice to shape what comes next. We’d also welcome your input through this survey. We hope you’ll join us. Sincerely, Heidi Daniel Executive Director

2h oh yeah, and I just saw someone sent an uncensored image of a pig taking a shit at someone who announced blast solely because of AI being used on the code, worse yet, it's a REAL LIFE image, not a silly cartoon one. these people aren't any better than those pro-AI tech bros, aren't they?

Post #1 Bill Premo Building a Better Flash March 3 I don't know where to start with this but yeah I'm making flash if flash was built in 2026. I'm making it compatible with Linux, Mac, and PC. It’s a full 2D animation authoring tool — timeline, drawing tools, symbol library, tweening, scripting, the works — built from the ground up in C# with Avalonia and SkiaSharp.

All responses are built from the vetted Q&A bank. No open-ended generation. No detailed tactical advice. No guaranteed outcomes that could mislead players. And if the system detects questions about exploits or hacks, it doesn’t even attempt to answer. Have we seen hallucinations? Yes. The system once made up a ship called the Albatross. These things happen with language models. We have tools to retroactively review

RickD GDTV Yesterday at 12:22 PM We've had some people ask us to create a vibe coding course and some ask us specifically not to create any AI courses. We try to base our decisions on community input. How would you feel if we created a course teaching AI programming (not art) approaches? Select one answer I'd consider purchasing an AI programming course: 25 votes, 12%. I likely wouldn't purchase but have no problem with it: 64 votes, 32%. I would be disappointed to see such a course: 113 votes, 56%. 202 votes - 44h left Remove Vote

Benj Edwards @benjedwards.com - 6d Today I made a IRC-style chatroom with channels and DMs for my Claude Code agents to ask each-other troubleshooting questions while developing apps. Sometimes one instance will have the proper context (including history, docs, tools, etc) that another lacks and asking for help can be a quick fix
