A MILLION VIEWS! And somehow, this thing just keeps growing! 🦊❤️
I want to remind everyone of something.
Behind every comment, every disagreement, and every story is another human being.
We can disagree. We can have wildly different opinions about art, technology, and creativity. We can even get a little heated sometimes.
But we don't have to become enemies.
Please be kind to one another. Don't harass people, don't tear down their work, and don't turn someone else's experiences into an excuse to hurt somebody.
I'd much rather see us making things, sharing our creations, learning from each other, and finding a little common ground.
Traditional artists, digital artists, AI creators, commissioners, and everyone in between. There's room for all of us.
We can still be friends.
And who knows? Maybe if we spend a little less time tearing each other apart, we'll discover just how many incredible things we can build together.
Keep creating beautiful things. ❤️

I've been noticing something about the art commission community that's been bothering me.
So many commissions happen through a few DMs, a PayPal payment, and a handshake built entirely on trust. And for the most part, that works. There are some incredibly talented artists out there who take their work seriously.
But good grief, when things go wrong, what a mess.
Suddenly, there's a Terms of Service page nobody remembers agreeing to. Restrictions that were never discussed. Sometimes even new rules introduced long after the artwork was delivered.
And before you know it, we're watching public callouts, blacklists, and accusations fly in every direction.
Here's what I find interesting. Writing new terms doesn't automatically rewrite an agreement someone already made. And paying for artwork doesn't automatically mean you own its copyright either.
Both sides have rights, but so many of those rights are never clearly established before money changes hands.
Instead, we're trying to settle contractual ambiguity through social pressure, as though enough outrage can determine what was originally agreed upon.
And I think that's where we're missing something important.
We should be championing the artists who get this right. The ones who establish clear terms before accepting payment, communicate honestly, honor their agreements, and actually deliver what they promise.
Those artists deserve recognition, recommendations, and repeat customers. They're the people we should be lifting up.
I've seen artists get burned by commissioners, and I've seen commissioners lose money to artists who never delivered. Neither situation is acceptable.
I don't expect every independent artist to hire a lawyer or draft a 30-page contract. But surely we can do better than making up the rules after someone gets upset.
Maybe instead of spending so much energy deciding who deserves to be blacklisted, we should spend more time celebrating the people who deserve our business.
Because at the end of the day, outrage isn't a contract. And professionalism deserves to be rewarded.

This particular example is relatively low risk, and I wouldn't want people getting scared away from experimenting with AI over it.
The image is just an empty room, and the user is asking the AI to fill it with things it already knows about them.
Even if someone embedded a malicious instruction in that image, the AI would still have to recognize it, interpret it as an instruction, and act on it.
There's no guarantee that would work, and simply uploading an image doesn't give someone access to your personal information.
Prompt injection is a real security concern, especially when AI agents have access to sensitive data or external tools. But there's a big difference between experimenting with an image in a chat and giving an untrusted AI agent control over your systems.
A little awareness goes a long way. We don't need to make ordinary AI experimentation sound dangerous.
Par souci de sécurité, on ne dépose jamais une image récupérée ainsi sur un chat LLM.
L'image peut contenir des instructions invisibles pour un oeil humain, mais parfaitement lisibles pour le LLM.
C'est du même genre que scanner un QR Code trouvé dans la rue.

WE HAVE A NATIONAL EMERGENCY.
The developers of Big Walk encountered a difficult rendering problem.
Even a Unity engineer couldn't find a solution!!
AI helped them find one.
About 10 lines of code.
Apparently..
At 10 lines fascism begins.
At 15 democracy collapses.
At 30 the machines have seized Congress.
We've somehow turned solving a difficult engineering problem into an ideological threat to civilization.
It's a technological achievement, not a military coup.
Good grief.
Two years as the target taught me the people who need to speak are the ones who haven't.
A lot of you have already written in.
I read every message and I'm not here to argue about tools or sides. I just want to understand what people are living through.
If you've been harassed, excluded, or made to feel unwelcome in VRChat for any reason, come tell me. The door's open for all of it.

A system must adapt to survive. A community must evolve to remain relevant.
We must be willing to change, to challenge what is comfortable, and to step into what is unfamiliar.
We must remain hungry, even when we are full. We must be willing to empty ourselves of old assumptions to make room for new possibilities.
Comfort breeds stagnation. Growth demands change.
And survival belongs not necessarily to the strongest, but to those willing to adapt.

I remember watching digital artists fight to be taken seriously when Photoshop showed up. Same sneers, same gatekeeping, same "this doesn't count."
Decades later I'm watching another generation argue over who gets to call themselves a creator.
Did we learn nothing?

Okay, first off... HOLY SHIT.
The number of DMs I've received from people asking questions, sharing their stories, looking for inspiration, and wanting help with AI is absolutely wild.
I'm genuinely trying to keep up with all of you.
At this rate, it's going to take me at least a week to get through my inbox. BUT I WILL!
Just bear with me. I'm one fox with a keyboard. 🦊
And seriously, thank you for reaching out.
I want to remind everyone of something about me.
I enjoy the technology, I use it regularly, and I believe it opens incredible opportunities for people to create things they otherwise couldn't.
But being pro-AI isn't a political identity for me. It's not a team I joined, a movement I'm trying to lead, or a battlefield where I need to defeat everyone who disagrees.
I'm just a guy who loves building things.
And watching these conversations unfold has been fascinating.
I've seen genuine concerns, thoughtful criticism, personal experiences, incredible creativity, and some absolutely ridiculous arguments. I've also watched people become so convinced of their own positions that they stop considering whether someone else's experience might be equally real.
That's something I think we all need to be careful about, myself included.
Echo chambers have a funny way of convincing us that what we know is everything there is to know. Eventually, we stop listening to understand and start listening for something to attack.
And when that happens, even the simplest conversation becomes a fight.
I don't believe every artist hates AI users. I don't believe every AI user understands the concerns artists have. And I certainly don't believe that disagreeing with someone automatically makes them a bad person.
There are legitimate questions about consent, compensation, accessibility, creative freedom, and the future of technology. Those questions deserve more than insults and assumptions.
I have my own biases. I'm human. I get frustrated, I make mistakes, and sometimes I bite back when someone takes a swing at me.
But I can also listen. I can recognize a good argument. And I can respect someone who sees things differently without abandoning what I believe.
I'm not asking anyone to become pro-AI.
I'm asking people to recognize that the world is bigger than their own corner of the internet.
We don't have to agree to treat each other like human beings. And we don't have to turn every difference of opinion into a war.
I'd rather spend my time creating things, learning from people, and finding solutions to problems that actually matter.
There's room for all of us to do that.

Go Enjoy playing a really fun game.

Go play. have fun.
Imagine sitting down to the most delicious stack of pancakes you've ever eaten.
Fluffy. Golden brown. Perfectly cooked. You finish the entire plate, compliment the chef, and tell everyone how incredible breakfast was.
Then somebody whispers, "You know they used AI to help develop that recipe, right?"
Suddenly you're gagging, demanding a refund, and declaring the entire breakfast an insult to humanity. 😂
The chef still cooked it. The ingredients were real. The effort was real. You genuinely enjoyed every bite.
But apparently, discovering that AI contributed somewhere along the way retroactively poisoned the entire experience.
That's what I find fascinating about the backlash against AI-assisted creative work.
You can spend years building something, pour thousands of hours of human effort into it, and use AI for one small part of the process.
And for some people, that single detail invalidates everything else.
You're allowed to have ethical objections to AI. Absolutely.
But there's a difference between questioning how something was made and pretending everything good about it suddenly disappeared.
The pancakes didn't change. Your opinion did.
This is heartbreaking to me, honestly.
These guys, who have been making games for 13 years, get review-bombed for using AI to help with game development.
The developers (only a few guys!) admitted to using AI to help solve their toughest technical issues and bugs. They said it contributed to maybe 0.1% of the code, by giving them starting points for their problems to modify BY HAND. (they’re still writing code by hand for gods sake)
It is childish and immoral to try to discredit their passion and efforts for their game for this.
I think frankly, if your opinion on using A TOOL for gamedev is this bad. you are simply uneducated on the topic and you should find other things to complain about.
