One of this years challenges for globalgamejam is generating your assets using AI? Is this a joke?
[Shortened image description: Explore the possibilities - (Sponsored by Leonardo.Ai): Create an asset using Leonardo.Ai's <bla bla bla grifter bullshit sales pitch I'm not typing>. There's $250 CASH + $600 worth of subscriptions up for grab! Plus get your game promoted in our official Global Game Jam article when the challenge concludes!]

I just received word that I'm banned from attending certain #gamedev events after having called out Global Game Jam's AI sponsor, I'm not considered "part of the Global Game Jam community" thus my opinion does not matter. Woopsie.

Clarification;
• Me not part of community retracted after finding out I hosted 2 GGJ sites
• GGJ (organization) didn't ban me, an individual working there did
• They said I'm not welcome anymore at events they (the individual) organizes
• Won't share name, due to harassment
(sad)
