'We support the work of those who are trying to limit the harm generative AI is doing to videogames and our world, and apologise that Big Walk’s LLM usage may not meet their standards'
also recognize that we live in an era where it’s impossible to have completely ethical consumption
Yes, but that doesn’t mean that we shouldn’t do our best to strive towards that goal. And speaking up when you see something so incredibly unethical take over everything is like the least people can do.
I agree, but I also believe in picking your battles. I am vegetarian, but not vegan, despite desiring to be. I drive a gas car. I own personal electronics and clothing manufactured less than ideally or using components sourced from exploited communities in the global South. In the grand scheme of things, I don’t really stand by boycotting or shaming those that approach a complicated and ethically questionable technology in the most moral way possible. Anyone that works in development will tell you that AI is simply going to be a staple part of the industry going forward, because it enables developers to spend vastly less time on writing syntactically correct code and more time on design, bugfixing, etc. The AI industry is very unethical and unregulated right now, but it is also literally the only option to solve certain novel problems. I think the reactionary attitude towards any use of AI is unproductive. We should be focusing on the people putting out insecure, sloppy, vibe-coded garbage and don’t disclose their use, not the people using AI in the most minimal and appropriate applications who actually disclose it.
