  • Yes, I did. Did my Bachelor’s and Master’s in computer science in media. Studying is almost free in my country and having a relevant degree gives you much better job opportunities. So there’s no real reason not to do it, unless you specifically want some non-academic job. And even then, spending a few years at college is a pretty good time and a valuable experience.





  • My company has 2 CEOs. One of them doesn’t ever really talk about AI. The other one is personally obsessed with the topic. His picture on Teams is AI generated and every other day, he posts some random AI tutorial or news into work channels. His client presentations are mostly written by ChatGPT. But luckily, nothing is being forced on us developers. The company is very hands-off in general (some may say disorganized) and we can pretty much use any tools and methods we choose, as long as we deliver good results. I personally use AI only occassionally, mostly for quick prototyping in languages and frameworks I’m unfamiliar with. None of the other devs are very enthusiastic about AI either.


  • Browsing various art platforms, when I see a user where I’m not entirely sure if their art is AI (usually I think I can tell immediately though), I check how old their profile is. If it’s older than 2024, I check how their art from before that year looks. If there hasn’t been a sudden and radical shift in style and skill, I consider the art human-made. Otherwise, likely AI.

    That method might be a tad unfair to artists who are only starting out now, but I don’t know of any better way.
