Fuck AI

"We did it, Patrick! We made a technological breakthrough!"

A place for all those who loathe AI to discuss things, post articles, and ridicule the AI hype. Proud supporter of working people. And proud booer of SXSW 2024.

AI, in this case, refers to LLMs, GPT technology, and anything listed as "AI" meant to increase market valuations.

You should never support the scumbags at Hasbro/WOTC if you are into tabletop games

Yeah, I've been boycotting Hasbro since the whole OGL 1.1 fiasco. Fuck 'em.

Even after they released the 5e srd under CC BY 4.0?

I was going to end my boycott once they did that.

But like... a week later? (I don't remember the exact amount of time, but I remember it being surprisingly soon on the heels of the OGL 1.1 debacle.) They pulled the whole Pinkertons/MTG bullshit. Had they not done that, I'd have bought more 5e materials, watched the D&D movie, and likely caught up on some Transformers movies by now.

At this point, I don't think much could end my boycott of WotC short of Hasbro selling off WotC and better people being put at the helm of WotC. I don't think much could end my boycott of Hasbro short of a huge shift in upper-level management at Hasbro.
