I appreciate that, but that isn't really a solution for a saleable game. Concept art sure but that's it.

Yewahh.... How does that help?

Yeah I've never been able to draw in my entire life, believe me I tried. I have an eyesight impairment and that doesn't help.

I feel like your rage is directed at the wrong people

So I'm in two minds about this. I am a software engineer by trade and have an idea for a game I'd like to try making.

The problem is that I don't even really know how to make games, not do I have any artistic abilities myself. I can't afford to pay a load of artists for work for a game that might never be finished and might never make money.

So I'm stuck in this hard decision of do I try and make my game, invest a lot of money and potentially lose it all, or do I try and find a publisher who can front the money but lose creative control of my game? Or do I use AI to give me a head start in building something that I can use to garner interest in, in the hope that enough people like it that I can fund the development?

Essentially, AI offers me a way to create something that I would not otherwise be able to create and that's really hard to accept.

I mean... They're all kind of arbitrary in their own way, but one could argue that the excel time being invalid is actually useful because it serves as a null value - you know it's incorrect, whereas on the other systems it could be the default date or it could be the actual date.

Nah it's just shit writing. Occam's razor and all that.

You know exactly what I'm referring to

Fuck Dyson. He promoted Brexit and then moved his HQ out of the UK when it was clear Brexit was a huge mistake, then got all pissy when people pointed out he was a huge hypocrite.

Yeah this sucks but honestly it never really worked well for me, ebooks are horribly underserved in the media world.

And say what you will about apple, it worked (the slogan, not the Macs)

I think that's the wrong way to look at it. Times any of those metrics by the literal billions of phones out there and it adds up quite quickly.

Sure on an individual basis it might mean savings of a few bucks over the course of the lifetime of the phone, but scale that up and we're talking entire power plant's worth of electricity that isn't required.
