"You know what I'd love?" "Tell me..." "A big-budget single-player shooter." "We can make a single-player shooter." "A real, simple shooter. None of those open worlds, skill trees, crafting benches and guns with rarity colors." "We can do that. Insane graphics, linear levels, epic setpieces, heavy-feeling guns, a shotgun that actually sends people flying, credits in 12 hours. It will be just like the 2000s."

LAIKA confirmó que nunca usará IA generativa en sus películas: 💬 «La IA es un robo. Es la ingestión de años de creatividad e ingenio humano, vomitado de vuelta. No tiene humanidad ni espíritu».

No me canso de decirlo: A los programadores nos han arrancado de cuajo nuestra identidad de la noche a la mañana. Que sí, que soy el primero en usar Codex o Claude Code. Que sí, que shippear features a toda hostia, con las que antes ni soñabas, es dopamina por un tubo. El problema no es el avance en sí, toda profesión evoluciona con el tiempo. Pero es que en cuestión de 18 meses, todo lo que habías aprendido durante años, miles de horas de práctica, cientos de horas de estudio dentro y fuera del trabajo, se han esfumado. Ya dan igual las discusiones sobre patrones de diseño. Ya dan igual los libros de Uncle Bob. Ya dan igual las noticias con las novedades en Swift. Ya dan igual las horas debuggeando o resolviendo un problema que acababan en ese aha moment. Hasta nos divertíamos cambiando el tema de colores del código. Ya hace muchos meses que no toco una sola línea a mano, así que ya ni eso nos queda. Nos hemos quedado sin identidad. Como decimos en Galicia: A chorar a Cangas (supongo)
No había visto el impacto psicológico que puede tener la IA en los trabajadores hasta anoche, hablando con un amigo. Un tío muy inteligente que en los últimos años había virado hacia la programación (desde el mundo del VFX) se encuentra con que el trabajo de meses lo ha sacado adelante otra persona del equipo en un día, reemplazando su trabajo previo. La sensación de sentirse obsoleto de golpe lo dejó tiritando. No es solo el miedo a perder el trabajo, sino el sentir que años de esfuerzo por aprender se han ido por el retrete. Y como guinda del pastel, perder algo que tanto placer intelectual le daba como programar. Se me ha quedado el pobre hombre más vacío que una cáscara de pipa.

Exactamente. No hay nada bueno con el tema de la IA (quizás quitando la ironía del asunto).
Sobre el tema de la IA en el Steam Next Fest y cómo está afectando a los desarrolladores... 🥲💔

Vivimos en un mundo totalmente terrible si produciendo esto te cierran el estudio... Todos sabemos de los bandazos q dió el último Dragon Age (y no por esta gente). Y ojo, que yo no soy fan de ninguna de estas dos sagas, pero sé ver la calidad.
A BioWare dev on reddit leaked a Mass Effect 5 trailer... it's called MASS EFFECT UNIVERSE and it's fucking gorgeous. I'm crying. This is everything I wanted. They were a lot farther than we thought. FUCK EA

Visibility is one thing these days. But we can’t fool ourselves. Good, deep work, with your soul as a hammer, always pays off. And we did it at @vercorsgames with Tuned In. Thank you for notice it @Lockie_Glizzy and for the cover mention.

I'm not going to go into details, but Tuned In is another game I played and recorded for my 9 indie game compilation recently, but suffice to say, there are moments in this game that will really have your tension levels through the roof and the phrase "edge of the seat" is an absolute understatement, the story is quite gripping and is told in a great and slightly unusual way. steampowered.com/app/4692790…
