Does this new genre have a name yet? Handmade slop? In other words - AI slop-like stuff created by a human being. The artist’s Bluesky post:

So excited to share this illustration I had the pleasure of creating for Bloomberg Businessweek for the article “The Steamy, Magical and Now Very Lucrative Romantasy Business” by Hannah Miller and Madison Muller.

Such a fun one to work on!

    Has Overwatch created a single new player character that isn’t an amalgamation of 1 or 2 previous archetypes? Seems like they created a fence for all the limits of character expression and every subsequent character just fills in the gaps in between the other characters. Maybe that’s good or frugal game design, but it seems boring as fuck. Like with how stingy they were, with OW1 at least, with releasing new stages.

    I could be missing something. But everything including the story felt like it was retreading the same ideas over and over.
