Forgotten Island opened this weekend. Many people said the marketing was weak. On my side, I saw plenty of promotions. Did algorithms knew to target me? I am genuinely curious: what sort of marketing would reach you? How do you find out about upcoming projects?

This is great, but also #forgottenisland was fantastic. Funny as heck and a ton of heart. Plus rad to see Philippines mythology shown off

Klobuchar has Schmitt dead to rights: "The game in fact was in Maryland. For a senator to have false information & imply, based on confusion about name of a team, that you were in another city & somehow involved that day in what was happening in Georgia & call you a 'dirtbag' deserves an apology"

Technology enthusiasts severely overestimate the average person’s desire or willingness or capacity to build and use AI agents. I understand some work roles that could mandate or encourage it but that is no way a tech revolution. Agents are best for structured, clearly delineated tasks.

Fewest women I've ever seen in a single event space, and I cover comic conventions for a living.
There’s a “pro-data center party” taking place in D.C. right now, with a generative AI photo booth, AI themed cocktails

We're stoked to introduce the 'No Gen AI' seal for indie games!
Indie devs can use it on their game's store page to assure potential players that their game was made without the use of Generative AI.
You can grab it from the Polygon Treehouse website:-

Eye popping. Court just unsealed Summary Judgment motions in New York Times v OpenAI / Microsoft.
Easy to see why the AI companies had so many redactions (pink). Their own people wrote the lede for NYT, the "largest theft of labor in human history"... "more and more substitutive..." /1
