@dbat@mastodon.gamedev.place You should definitely check out AllenAI's work. They are the only ones I have seen building models out of completely open data sets: https://allenai.org/

@jmaris@eupolicy.social Not EU, but oh man, I dream of the day when the standard is to open-source your game upon end-of-life.

@glyph Don't be tricked into losing hope. The pendulum often swings several times before the healthy ideas take deep and widespread root. Looking at the fight for Civil Rights and the multiple waves of Feminism can help inform the larger picture

@skinnylatte@hachyderm.io hahah jesus
